New Splitter is Great!

Just received shipment of Wolfe Ridge Friday. Just finished getting six cord of wood put up in the new shed before the snow starts blowing and the temps head into the teens. This machine and me were cranking out about 75 min/cord solo or about 50 min/cord with junior. So glad I could get the maple to catch these favorable drying conditions.

 

Liking that wood shed!

Any action shots?

 

Need some pics of splitter. Which model did you get?

 

I’ll have to set a kid up with a phone for the video. More to come.

 

Pro 22c with auto. Love the machine. Everything.

 

That's the model I like from Wolfe Ridge. Probably more of a splitter than I'll ever need, but the auto isn't offered in 28. I just need to keep saving my pennies.

 

Nothing like a new firewood making toy. At that rate you'll have the new shed filled in no time and will be wanting to build another one!

 

Pics or said splitter does not exist...in action...jus sayin.

 

Yes sir, I too am loving that shed setup

 

Curious about your block & bean setup for keeping your wood off the ground. I'm using cinder blocks with a 2x4 frame on top.

I’m doing the same using 8x16” 2” or 4” thick bricks. Then I made the 2x4 H frames that are 66” wide 11-12” on center, a little less than half the bay’s width so they are easy to pick up and store and fit most firewood lengths well.

 

Just for you Ash!

 

TY Dstrick , Love that splitter, nice set up!

 

That’s a real nice machine, is that the 6-way wedge on the ground?

 

Just looked at their website, they have some nice stuff on there. How do you like the splitter so far?

 

Yes and I use it as often as I can. I drop it all the way down hit a large round and have a few resplits. Or I can leave it centered. It does seem to make slightly smaller splits than the 4 way but so far I’m just learning. Different species of wood and log sizes can benefit differently from either wedge. I am splitting much fatter banking size logs with this machine very easily. The machine is not tiring to use because the beam height keeps operators comfortably standing upright. It tows level from the engine end when connected to the low mount ball on the tractor. I can easily step over the draw bar between splitter and tractor.

 

Dstrick Keep up with the splitter report.
Have you owned other splitters before? What made you decide to go with Wolfe Ridge?
