How often do you really deal with trees this size?

I usually don't handle wood that big but when I do this is how I split it.
That is a beast of a machine though

 

That Dolmar 6100 is Fast! Is it ported?
What's the point of making the cookies?

 

A couple nice splitters there!

 

All stock. Cookie cutting was just for fun.

 

First thing that came to mind was , would Dennis prefer this to be horizontal or vertical. ? lol

 

Good lord. Splitting firewood just so it's small enough to cut with a human size chainsaw and then go through a normal size splitter. Those are some big bits of timber for sure.

 

Neat idea ! Don't think it's practical from my end though ... I could dice em in quarters with the ported 395xp and SuperSplit em ! Might take a hair longer and be a bit more work though

 

Could have used it this weekend during tornado cleanup. That is a buried 661c with a 36" bar. My Husqvarna 372 w 28" Tsumura was the little guy on that job.

 

This splitter recently caught my attention.

 

That thing is fast!


but...Lookie Backwoods Savage ......They're splitting vertical but still lifting the rounds!

 

How about this biggin? Me and Scotty Overkill took this one down last month.

That's a 42" bar on his 1957 Stihl Contra.

 

Red Oak 40" stump .... biggest one we've done so far ... lotta work moving 18" x 40" chunk around ... prob weighs 500lbs if not more ... the 241c on the stump is for laughs

 

There's a couple days worth of heat in that stump. I'd hate to move it though.

 

Yeah ... easy-peasy cutting but rolling those pcs to a spot where they could be quarter took every ounce of oomp we had ... 500lbs of human(s) with 6 ft die bars and still barely go the job done ... had to fab up a crane with the help of Willy the welder to get em up to the splitter .... we got just under 10face cord of wood off this one tree this march ... should be burnable by next Dec

 

I do that with my Kubota
