    Curious why you don't use the hoist to lift and place the splitter ?

    Not enough cap. Splitter weighs about 400 lbs... that boom is workin' at around 250 lb. That boom was set up to lift fast, with not much cap. As is mentioned before, the whole dog and pony show was a lot to set up. I had a lot of rounds to deal with, so it worked well. I'm embarrassed to admit the last time I used that setup was 6 years ago... :emb::picard:... um... I got distracted I guess ? ... SQUIRREL ! :D
