I should also add that it make take an hour to 1.5hrs to do a cord so what is 3 and a half minutes? If you did a cord in an hour you would a whopping 3% faster without a safety. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk
that's actually a good idea. I think it would be fun to try both the machines side by side, maybe at a gtg or something.
I'll bet the difference is more than that. but I'm not here to argue speculative statistics. also "without a safety" is sorta like saying glocks don't have a safety. does that mean they are a more dangerous gun? well, its only as dangerous as the guy using it.
I've shot the Glock 17, 19, & 43...they had a "trigger" safety (as it was explained to me, not a handgun guru), not a "traditional" safety.... guess they're out there tho?
ok. but you totally missed the point. guns don't hurt ppl, ppl hurt ppl. splitters don't hurt ppl, ppl hurt ppl.
Photobucket is a pain to use anymore and I think you have to pay for them to host your pics on a 3rd party site. So I changed to another photohosting site. Here are all the pics that were lost from this thread. They may not be in the correct order but hopefully they will help someone look at buying this splitter.
I think that is intentional because unlike hydraulics, these things move fast and could easily slice off a hand. They actually scare me a bit but I guess as long as you keep the two handed operation intact, you should be OK. I would never consider trying to circumvent the two handed operation with these splitters.
Yep. I have been using photobucket for years on lots of forums. No way do I owe them hundreds of dollars each year so that I can post pictures here. The pictures that I know I used are now on Tinypics instead and any one time only pictures are going to end up on the respective forum site. As in the past, any pictures I want to use here, on AS, and on the OPEforum will still use a third party host but I refuse to pay big bucks for that convenience.
I had not been happy with photobucket for a while. Sometimes it would take forever for a picture I uploaded to show up. Then I could not use my adblocker on their site. Now the site is full of ads and pop ups. I thought I was doing the best thing by uploading my pics to photobucket. I could share them over several forums. Then if the forum got hacked like AS my pics would still be there. I think photobucket is in bad financial shape. I switched to imgur a few months back. The bad thing is I need to download all of my photobucket pics (probably close to 2,000) and upload them to imgur. It took me a half hour or 45 min to prove get through the security stuff/ prove I was not a robot to download my wood splitter album.
I spent the better part of an evening dumping all of my Photobucket pictures to a hard drive. Now I am uploading what I really want to replicate to my new account as I see the need. If I know I have a picture, I will upload it to Tinypic rather than to the target forum unless it is a special purpose picture that would be useless elsewhere. I used to be heavy into tropical fish keeping and had tons of fish and fish related pictures. Now those are just on my hard drive because I seldom ever go there any more and the place where I was a forum MOD has gone in an entirely unacceptable direction for me. They can look at the failed link today instead of the pictures that cost me huge amounts of my time to take and post for the general members there to enjoy. I had 20 and 30 picture series that I posted to explain what I was doing with DIY builds for instance.
