I really don't like cutting standing dead trees. Too dangerous as they can snap and large limbs can fall out of the top. Make sure you are...
Well I guess the only way you could call "mechanically picked" is if you think I am a Cyborg.:D Seriously, I pick with a picking bag the old...
Of the thee I mentioned, they are extremely similar tasting to one another other than maturity times and color.
When the trees are properly thinned, you get much fewer apples, but nicer large ones. I have 3 varieties of Honeycrisp, the conventional, Premier...

Well thought I would update this thread to the present. It is now in the middle of apple picking time. Zestar, Premier Honeycrisp and Buck eye...
Just picked up a used one to replace the fine running 28 ton Speeco I presently have. It's and Iron & Oak Commercial, 22 ton fast cycle with log...
My logger buddies seldom bother with cull logs and Appleton is WAY TO FAR from where I am at. The business is putting high grade timber on the...
I had an ash tree pushing about 22" in the front yard I disposed of yesterday. (Thanks to the ash borer). The splitter works very well and the...

Running it by myself is not efficient, I need at least one person to take splits off the work table.
Well there is a bunch of debris on the ground.:whistle: My wife picked up all the small pieces for kindling for her fire pit.:smoke:
Hey now, I am going to start carrying a 5 gallon pail to use as a step to get into the bed. Yesterday I was using a cut off round. With no...

My coyote hunting partner is a retired master sheet metal worker. He bent that up. It was complicated because the rack protecting the rear...
The "auto cycle" is quite handy. If you just pull the left most lever it operates the ram like a normal one, pull both and the ram extends fully...
I wanted a splitter with a log lift and hydraulically adjustable 4 way wedge. I attempted to have Alex of A. E. Metawerx make a custom unit but...
