    Yikes .... Videos ??? YouTube account ??? It's only our second date and you want to go ring shopping ?????? How about working with me to take a picture on this tablet thing my wife gave me and putting in this box. So I can prove that I have a splitter.

    :rofl: :lol:
    That's much easier....:thumbs:
    Take your tablet outside (if that's where yer shplittah is) AND if you're in wifi range, start a post and tap "upload a file" and then tap "choose file" - it will prompt you to take a picture or select from the tablet's photo gallery. If you have a strong wifi signal, choose "take photo" and it will eventually load up and appear as a little "thumbnail" at the very bottom/outside of your reply box... tap "Thumbnail"...
    If you don't have a wifi signal outside the home, take a picture with your tablet in the usual fashion (camera/point and click), then get back inside and follow the above suggestions as applies to using the tablet photo gallery....
    If ya can't do it, I'll PM you:)

    Thank you Eric for all the help. My name is Keith by the way. I will try that tomorrow but it's a 90% chance of rain. Go figure. I do have some pics on my phone though I'm sure one has the splitter in it. Gotta be a way to link them up.

    I used mine on my old Suburban, I had it on the passenger side but had to run it in reverse for the correct direction. I moved it to the other side later, it scary to use but sounds really cool splitting wood.

    Thanks Thistle for the vote of confidence. I sure wish a forum instruction manual was available. I'm more of a crank turning lever pulling draw it on the shop table kind of guy.

    It was nice out today so I took a couple of pics. The feed rate is about 170ipm (340 rpm at a 1/2" pitch) we call it model "screw U 2 " it even has flat free wheels.
