Thank you Evan and thank you as ever for commenting 👍

Thank you as always Jerry, sorry its taking me a while to respond to comments, between work and family life. I know you know brother, cant wait for it to come true. That 500i is lovely, couldnt be without it now buddy. I need that kinetic splitter back in action, the thing is night and day different from the hydraulic splitter. I will get on to stripping it down and figuring whats gone wrong. Thank you again brother 👍

Paul i am so sorry to read of your dads passing. It does hit hard and man there isnt a day that goes by id like to see him, not even for anything but just to see him. I could say that time is a healer but we just deal with things in our own ways. Thank you though, yes im getting to a point where i am happy with whats what and how things are working out for sure. Keep your head held high and think of the good times buddy 👍

Maybe ??? you will have to see later on this year good sir. I already have a Norwood mill 😆 or do you mean something else ? That 500i certainly does kick Ash, its an awesome saw for all round work, not too heavy and all the power that you need and some. Thank you for commenting buddy 👍

@ I was talking about the Norwood log planer thingy. It has its own engine and puts the grooves in for a cabin build, if you’re picking up what I’m throwing down

@@AppalachianFarmstead im picking up exactly what your saying. Yes the Norwood log moulder is what its called. Id like to have the log moulder as i said in another video but its not in the budget yet. Maybe in time.

@ I knew it ‼️

Maybe, you will have to wait and see whats in the pipe line buddy. Im excited though. Thanks for commenting 👍

Thank you very much buddy, hope you are well bud.

Nice, which way did the larch get installed for the cladding ? board and batten ? shiplap ? tongue and groove or the many other ways there is for it ? Good to hear though buddy, thank you for commenting 👍👍

@everydaywithmenick Board and batten, two inch gap between the slats for airflow. 👍

@@frankcouper9377 Thats a good gap, certainly will aid in great airflow.

OOh man, i fell your pain. It is the worst, you just know also what is coming but there is nothing you can do about it. Stay strong and dont be ashamed to let others in, i didnt and still dont but i can imagine it will help. You take care and im thinking of you buddy.

Thank you william, yes im not happy the kinetic has stopped working but i will get a look at it in the near future and see what is happening for sure, it needs to be in service for sure. The 500i is a beast, what a lovely saw, its got all the power without all the weight of a much bigger saw, really nice to use all day without a doubt. Thank you for commenting 👍

Maybe, you will have to keep an eye on the channel and see whats what, thanks for your guess and thank you for commenting 👍

Maybe Sam, you will have to stick around and find out buddy.

Sorry mate I added my comment to yours so I deleted it lol 😅

Hi Harry, if i had a log deck for this machine then i would say it would do 9 or 10 loose filled cages so i guess 9m3. For the machine compared to say Posch or Tajfun or very similar, it is a slow machine. If i would buy again, i wouldnt buy this machine again. Id keep my eyes peeled in the 2nd hand market. Hope this helps and thank you for commenting.

Hey dougie and thank you for commenting, unfortunately there are no more spares available for these machines, its a shame because once ours break, thats it, they are done. How is yours holding up ? any issues ? thank you.

Thats good to hear, this 2 stroke oil has been doing ok so far. Thank you for your opinion.

Thank you very much, im just an average guy who is trying my very best at getting by and doing things that work but without spending the huge amounts of money that big companies sell. Thank you for commenting.

Hey, no your not off limits, most of my videos are all open and transparent, For the load in this video i think it was about 3k. Prices fluctuate depending on the time of year and how the woodlands are looking. Thank you for subscribing also 😊

@everydaywithmenick cheers nick ,I love being around timber especially when I've got my chain saw in my hand lol

Hey buddy, yes id agree with you, that chain certainly has done me well and has lasted some time too. Thank you and sorry for the late reply. Ive had a good weekend and i hope you did too.

Hi, what do you mean exactly ? do you mean where am i in the UK ?

Thank you.

Yes i ended up mixing the Alder in with the Ash wood, its a lot lighter wood in comparison but a hardwood none the less. Its funny, i never ever seem to get a premium price for Oak firewood. Well my prices are the rock bottom prices for kiln dried hardwood at £90 for a dumpy bag. Seasoned hardwood is £70 a bulk bag. Thanks for sharing your side of the water on this one.

Hey new subscriber 👋and welcome to the channel. The kinetic splitter sure is a great machine and i do love using the machine but unfortunately the machine has now got a major fault and will not operate. This machine has been used in a commercial setting and has done many many tons of wood and has done fantastic. Thank you very much and look forward to seeing you in the comments again 👍 take it easy pal.

Thank you for your opinion on this one. I think yes im going to keep them seperate. I thought about it and im keeping it apart. I appreciate your view on this one. Take it easy buddy 👍

sorry, i should have more footage but there are more videos on the channel of the splitter in a much better action pace. Thank you.

Hi and thank you for commenting. All the info is in the video but im afraid the prices on this process will have vastly changed since this purchase. I would imagine the cost of freight will have gone up and also port fees will have increased too. Having it imported was easy once i was appointed a shipping agent, they did all the paper work, i just had to pay the fees associated with it all. VAT will always depend on the purchase price of course. Sorry ive not been much help on this one.

Hey Jerry 👋 not a problem on the shoutout, you know us Frontier and kinetic owners stick together 😆 I just wish the kinetic splitter was working at full capacity and not having this dreaded judder motion, it is hindering the operation of the machine. Ill have to have a look at the Fiskar tongs, i didnt realise they made any tongs. I think the problem is some rounds are larger than the tongs can handle but for me, i only cut at 9" so i can handle them that way. I have handled 3 foot diameter rounds just by the width i have cut them at not by diameter of the log. Thank you as always buddy, take care 👍

Hey and thank you for commenting. That is interesting to read your input. The clutch unit i have put in only 2 years ago has failed with this judder so i cant imagine the bearings on the unit will have failed so soon. I have a theory that the rack is riding too high and causing the judder, this is only theory of course and i will have to try it to see if that is the reason. Thank you for your insight and comment 👍

Hey buddy and thank you for your kind words, i dont think the loss of fatherly advice can ever be replaced. There are the black tools kinetic splitter in the UK and are basically the exact copy id say of Super Split. I am working on something so bear with me. Thank you for commenting as always 👍

Thank you and thank you for commenting.

Hey William, the kinetic splitter is great and will smash through anything when it is working correctly. The speed is night and day different to that of a hydraulic unit but there are many things to go wrong unlike hydraulic but still my number one choice for sure. Thank you for commenting 👍

I love my Jansen kinetic splitter too, just id like it to be running 100% all the time every time. Its a real shame about the clutch unit being so unreliable and prone to failure. I have tried what yours is doing and to no joy with mine. Yes i know the guy who imports them, hes called Ian and hes a lovely chap, i wonder if he could add a shipment into his container when he was coming over. Id have to see what price they are first of all. I also like the look of EastonMade splitters too. Maybe one day.

Thank you and thank you for watching.

Thank you very much for your kind words. Thank you for watching and commenting too.

Thank you very much Evan, i feel for you too. We live on, one thing in life is we arent here for a long time, take care buddy.

Thank you and as always you take care too.

Thank you buddy. yes hes forever in me and his lessons live on through me and into my kids. Thank you again, take care buddy 👍

Thank you William, Yes his battle is over and at rest now. Thank you for watching and commenting 👍

Thank you Jerry, i thank you for your kind words and the rest of the family would be grateful. Yes a good splitting session is well needed, even if i have been splitting an awful lot recently. I hope he thought that, he was a private man but if you knew you knew. Thank you again Jerry.

Im sorry for your loss too buddy, it isnt great. What are the prices of a 6 way for you ? have you thought about or increased they speed of your machine or is it fine for your application ? Thank you again buddy.

@ I think they are $150 ish. That’s above my pay grade to try and increase the speed. I’m only doing firewood for myself so the speed is good. I mean considering I use to split with a Tractor Supply splitter the Rugged Made is flying compared to that.

@@AppalachianFarmstead I thought theyd be about the same price as what they are over here. It would be interesting to get some feedback on how the 6 way is for you and how you split your wood. Yes i can imagine the difference is night and day difference. Yes if i wasnt selling firewood it would be fine.

@ I plan on doing some firewood videos. I split so much a year ago that I didn’t have to split this past year. Plus the last 2 winters have been mild, not this year it’s 🥶❄️. Plus I plan on expanding our maple syrup production this year.

Hey, dont ever tell my lass either, she will genuinely kill me. Most of the tools i have, she thinks theyre all the old tool and machinery i have. Im just trying to make my job easier with the correct machinery. Thanks for commenting buddy.

@everydaywithmenick 🤣🤣👍

Always welcome buddy, your creations are awesome and yes i will get over, dont worry. we will give all our viewers a good laugh.
