Taking a ride down one of the "Green" trails, but man, it was a fun challenge for this dude, having been out of the trail riding scene for some time. Cannondale Trail 7.1 did an amazing job keeping me above ground!

A LONG video, but I think an important video regarding a health scare from last year. If you're squeamish about certain bodily functions, this might be one to take a pass, but I hope you'll watch it anyway and gain some inspiration from my experience.

    I'd make a stand for it so you wouldn't have to keep standing up and sitting down. If it were at waist height it would be much easier. And I'd also build some kind of table behind the splitting wedge to keep the pieces from falling and possibly hitting your legs or feet!

    I purchased my 5 ton in early summer. I live in SoCal and the most prevalent wood here is eucalyptus. Funny thing with this wood is how hard and twisty it is. If you try with all your might and use an ax, the ax will just bounce right off the log. Very hard to split. This 5 ton from Harbor Freight has NO problem splitting this twisted wood. I have split rounds that were up to 15" diameter. Maybe not the first try or down the middle, but starting on the edges and taking slices off. Sometimes I have to work the round and flip it or just move it a quarter turn. I have it on a rollaway bench that I love. It hasn't failed me yet with over 2 cords split so far. As far as adjusting the ram, all I did was to cut a piece of wood and place it behind the ram so it won't cycle all the way back. Yes, the two hands to control is somewhat awkward at times when you want to hold your wood from raising up. I would also like to see some small spikes on the ram head to keep it from slipping off the wood sometimes.

      A suggestion, if you hone the leading edge of the splitting wedge finer than factory, it helps split stringy wood with a cleaner finish & less stress on the machine. Motor runs cooler, so lasts longer before failing.

    I bought this same splitter about a week ago. I’ve split about two cords so far without any problems. My rounds are mostly 7”-10” but I’ve had several 11”-15” that have split just as easily as the smaller ones. My only complaint is the same as yours, not having a free hand. I bought a foot control for it at HF and use a small wood clamp to keep the on button pushed in. The motor starts when I pull the hydraulic lever and shuts of when the lever is released. I highly recommend this splitter to anyone looking to buy one.

    • @mikeh8228
      @mikeh8228 10 місяців тому

      Easy peasy. Measure the distance from the on button to the back of the box it is mounted on and go back to HF and buy the appropriate adjustable clamp. Clamp it down....now when you plug it in, it is on, and you have one handed operation. Have had mine for 6 years and 10 minutes into it, I fixed it this way....been using ever since and no problems! HA HA

    • @romainetomatoes2416
      @romainetomatoes2416 6 років тому

      It takes about 4 hours to make the crossing, which is within less than a mile of being exactly 60 miles in length. In other words, what they would call "Full Steam Ahead" is about 15 mph. Big ships just don't go very fast. I still would highly recommend this trip. I have done it many times, and I can attest that the lake michigan carferry slogan "Big Ship, More Fun" lives up to it's word. it really is a fun adventure.

    Nice video. Good production quality. Like the music. I have sailed on the Badger many times as a youth and adult. I love it. My family had a cottage on Crystal Lake near Frankfort...and I would go into town with my Mother...just to watch the carferries while she shopped. We would take the Ann Arbor Carferries right into Frankfort or because the the Badger and Spartan were new...we would go in and out of Ludington. (They sailed into Milwaukee at that time, along with Manitowoc and Keewanee.) Glad you enjoyed your journey.
