Nice machine!! Also those logs look nice and straight, plus the logs grown up there, I'm sure they are very energy dense. :thumbs:
Cottonwood. It's very stringy. Best to split with the rings of the wood not across the center and work it down until you have the center small...
Terrible camera work, zero editing skills, twisted up cherry log, inefficient operator, processor saw not tuned properly... But at least I got the...
