For those of us who weren't able to attend, it would be nice to have some names to go with the photos. Wish it would have been closer.
A couple of reasons for the Humboldt cut. 1 - Cleaner end for logging, 2 -It encourages the trunk to slide off the front of the stump vs sliding...
To go a step further than Woody, noodle "X"s to where you have 12" sq by 17-18" long blocks when you cut them loose. Easier to handle & simple to...
I have an 18 volt Ryobi chainsaw. Tried it with the old nicad battery when I got it & was disappointed with the performance. It turned too slow &...
Lumberjack had it at the charity cut last Saturday. Excellent condition & a strong runner! :thumbs:
For me, anything over 24" diameter goes to the saw mill or gets noodled. Even with the log lift, manhandling the splits is too much work!

I wouldn't want to have to hold levers with both hands to operate it. It is a creative way to keep the cylinder/up right lower.

Nate, the horizontal/vertical splitters in horizontal mode are too low & you have to catch the splits or pick them back off the ground. With the...
Gee, lets tip the round at an angle & wonder why it kept being kicked out. Design wise, the wedge should not make impact until it is parallel...
There is a tread devoted to them on AS. DHT is also a sponsor on AS. Some of their splitters are sold at Menards now. Meanwhile back at the...
