    Good feeling when wood is being processed. Better to split in cold weather.

    Hey Woody! I love technology when you can work and talk. Great for making videos and making splitting interesting. I had 2 hours of video that I never used while standing by the splitter and talking. When I was editing I thought, who is this mental Joe Lumberjack? Funny how you just get to talking and forget the camera is on! Oh, nice ash! Take care my friend! WST
  • Nice video Woodruff. I love them cold light snowy days like that for working up some firewood. Take Care !!!

    I like the sound of the wood splitting also.
  • @timstout781
    That is some good Ash. I am always amazed when I cut an Ash tree down and it is mostly punky, then the one right next to it is perfect wood.

    Nice video Woodruff!! I have the same splitter and I had a couple questions about the 4 way wedge but you pretty much answered them in the video. I’ll definitely be tuning in to the next video to hear more about your splitter.

    Christmas music…still? 😳 Hopefully you can’t hear it over the chainsaw and splitter. That ash sounds dry when you split it. I love that sound. I’ve got a few of the wooden pallet IBCs. I prefer the plastic over the metal and the metal over the wood. The wooden one just don’t last as long. Thanks for sharing!

    That looks like some nice Ash I have a rugged made splitter the wedge is not on the cylinder and the whole wedge just slips on and off and I have a 4 and 6 way wedges i had them made the way I wanted they work great, enjoy watching your videos I really liked the one on the stone walls that was very interesting ,have a great day
  • Hey Woodruff, That’s some nice, seasoned Ash you have there! I will be going out into the woods today to scrounge up some Ash rounds. Our inventory is almost completely out. Congrats on breaking 500! Good video!

    I was wondering about that 4-way. I would like to have one, but I agree, if that's all the wider it can split then it won't do me much good. I'll check out the next video to see what you hear from Countyline.
  • I help to manage a property about an hour south of me. Last spring we discovered that all the Ash had died over the winter. I fell what I could, they brought in a service for what I couldn't. In 2 1/2 days with two splitters and about 15 or so people processed it into about 8 full cord fur use on sight. I'm planning on dropping another 20-30 this spring. Ash is awesomely fast drying stuff and doesn't seem to rot to fast if you keep it off the ground.
  • Or a way to adjust the four way down to accommodate the different width logs??
  • Gotta try an figure a way where u don’t have to physically lift the log before splitting. I just have a single anvil 28 ton splitter. I’ve seen where guys welded a axe head on the single seemed like it split thoroughly. Thanks Matt New subscriber 👍👍

    Good video today. Lil work lil talk lil both. Oh sorry lil music too lol. I tried a 4 way that a friend has and did not like it. I like small splits so. I get more done splitting rounds into slabs with the single. Then splitting two slabs at a time. If you get what I mean. Any how you have a great day!

    I have the 40 ton thanks for saving me $89 dollars

    I think the problem is that the splitter wasn't designed with a 4 way in mind. The two uprights, one of which contains your back/forward control, limit the size and placement of the crossblades. Without those the crossblades could be wider which they need to be to be effective (also lower). Unfortunately the simple solution of removing them would require the controls to be repositioned. 4 way was clearly an afterthought.
  • The ash looked nice, I have been watching a few guys with the 4 way wedges on their splitters, I could tell they dont work all that great. Too me it looks like the wood would have to be a specific diameter for it to be a one pass deal. And we will never find wood all the same size.
