2 cords or so of the wood shed is oak I think but probably 15 or so that I still have to cut and split. I threw a few splits in the boiler...
How about a 550xp or the slightly cheaper version of that? I forgot the model number? I REALLY like mine. Edit-was thinking of the 545. It can...
I was shocked. I hoped it was at least 25 but 15 is ideal for my gasifier.
Scotty, to be honest I don't remember. Some of it came from my yard and some came from a tree service buddy that dropped off some logs.
I cut and split this oak in in late March / early April and stacked it in my shed late April. Figured I split a couple pieces open today and was...
Reminds me a lot of a hydrostatic pump.
Dave, fwiw, my 2 series cub cadet (think it was a 2248?) was shaft drive. No stupid drive belts to worry about, only a deck belt.
Wow, that is a big design fail if a tractor needs to be disassembled to replace the drive belt. Having to take half the tractor apart to replace...
Dave, I tried but my back said no. I find it really uncomfortable to work down low like that. I used the vertical mode to pop the larger rounds...
Spent a little more time with the new splitter today. Another nice day in the northeast. One thing I can't figure out, however, is why they...
A little over a cord here. Mixed oak, elm, ash, maple. First part of the season was in the wood stove and last 3 weeks have been in my newly...
I would helicoil it. They are commonly used in aluminum for threads that will see repeated use to prevent wearing out. A decomp that may never...
Picture came out dark but you get the idea. I have to say, especially for being one of the least expensive splitters available, I give it a big...
And after the races are over I would love to see which saw still runs after a couple of hundred tanks. Or even 2o tanks.
Made that very same decision except in orange and am glad I did.
I didn't want to post pictures of it sitting lonely in the garage. I'll put up some tomorrow once I get it into its native environment splitting...
My mistake, the 22 ton is 1200 at my home depot. The 27 ton is 1600.
no, the Ariens is 1600 and the dirty hands ended up being 900. The Ariens was close to twice as much as the dirty hands. To clarify I bought the...
I ended up buying one today. There are extra holes to slide the beam farther back but I will probably add more to move it back farther. The...
Thanks, I think they are identical except a larger piston.
