That was actually my exact intent, which I mentioned to my brother... to buy the $55 one. He said that over several years and numerous motors, he...
Maybe you are thinking of my tractor. I bought the splitter several years ago, maybe 2016. I am not going to replace the motor unless I totally...
Does anyone know if a Predator motor from Harbor Freight is a drop-in fit for this splitter, which has a Kohler Sh265 6.5hp motor? This HF motor...
A trick I learned that I wish I knew years ago... if you have a tractor... buck the clean wood of the dirty log laying on the ground. Then push it...
I am in one of your deep south states. I know a few people who heat with wood but it's very uncommon. And that means two cords/year. Around here,...
I borrowed a Harbor Freight 3pt quick hitch gizmo from my brother because I had bought log tongs similar to what you linked to, maybe they are...
I use Red Armor at 40:1 and like it, it doesn't smell bad and fuel mix with it is red in color, so, easy to tell what it is when you pour some.
Interesting how companies come out with new product. Their marketing theories would be interesting. I was not aware of these either. For little,...
Have you read the thread? Did you read post #5? Do you think anyone ever comes up with a better mousetrap?
Yes, the Log To Cord calculator does NOT account for air in a stack. I never found it to be useful (except to measure solid wood volume) due to...
Another way to say it... For a given quantity of solid wood... say, one cord... which is a piece of 'lumber' that is 4'x4'x8' (128 cu ft of...
I think some call it hunting. The motor, even under no load, at full throttle... it perpetually changes rpms like twice per second. Kinda like it...
You did it again, very nice, wish we had more ash here.
Well, that sux! What a loss.
What is PM? EDIT: Somebody else replied at same time. Never mind!
I hope all that did not succumb to a July 4 bottle rocket. And hope the owner had insurance!
Brad, yep, I, generally, sell pretty 'good-looking' splits, they are pretty darn uniform. I separate the uglier ones and burn them myself or sell...
I did this very thing recently and made a thread about it. I bought a Stihl 462. Of course, a 500i would be 'better.' I am sure a Husky equivalent...
Ok, Walt, that is exactly what I am talking about. If your 'factor' is correct, it's much more air gaps in stacked wood versus solid wood than I...
I hope when you go back, they have left the logs at length! I always hate when they cut to VARIOUS log lengths or all super short. Like they are...
