Me, too, Adam's Mom. I have no problem admitting I'm weaker than my hubby. Who cares!! We're smarter, because we let them pick up the heavy stuff!! 🤣🤣🤣 Not true about the smarter - my hubby is stronger & smarter than I am. That's why God gave him to me! 🤷♀️💃💞 Have a great day! Your son is amazing!!
dont apologize that just makes it worse. If people dont like who cares it is what it is. most women cannot handle big piece of wood easily it is what it is. true hurts
I can’t imagine the type of people that watch your great channel would be offended by that statement. It’s a shame that we live in a world where we have to be so concerned about hurting someone’s delicate feelings. Keep up the great work and videos Adam!!
Adam, no need to apologize….. if people watched more they would see how considerate you are of others…… also, by stopping and addressing what you deem as a potential problem only brings more light to your statement. Most people would have missed it in my opinion…… keep up the good work.
Great videos! Don’t apologize, I found the people that are offended and want an apology are the same people that will say things to offend you and not apologize. You are a great guy with a kind heart.
I appreciate your sensitivity to being willing to make pieces easy for a women smaller hand to pick up. Haters always find the negative. Great job on all your projects🪚🪵
Me and my brother in law used to use big splits. Now after both having back surgeries, the smaller splits the better. Firewood is only supposed to be “work” when cutting and splitting. Burning it in the winter is supposed to be enjoyable and not “work”. I also believe the vast majority of your viewers know your personality well enough that if you said something it would be from personal experience and you would never want to upset or offend anyone intentionally or unintentionally.
no need to apologize but it was nice that you did. I thought it was pretty cool you took the time to edit that piece in. Glad to see you chopping the larger stuff down to a nice size to handle. I remember watching that 4 way splitter on the processor (before the 8 way arrived) and thinking some of those pieces going up the elevator were a little larger than you normally process. Either splitter is nice to watch. I am still operating off of a single wedge, 3 point attachment splitter that runs off the hydraulics of my JD tractor. lets just say it is teaching me patience.
Tried out an Axis. Is a helluva machine! Is as surgical precise as you can get in a log splitter. If hadn't already ordered a Wolfe Ridge I'd have ordered an Axis.
I, too, hate that you had to stop the video, just to say stuff so you don’t offend someone! I’m sick of this BS, and I wish we could turn back time and live!!! Love ya Adam….keep up your great work! Pat from Vermont 😊🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
My wife also appreciates smaller pieces. If she gets up early she can put some wood in the stove to get it warming up. And I like to know if I'm not around she can stay warm. We're both in our sixties.
its nice to have smaller size split pieces because not everyone has a large open fireplace some have a small one for like a tiny home or for a small Open firepit for camping or backyard firepit and yes nice to have smaller logs for the kids to be able to handle too
Great videos. I noticed a possible improvement for your assembly line that is something I have done in the past. Set the tote to be split to your right and elevate the tote on blocks or a platform so you are not bending down as much. Grab a piece on your right, split, put in the finish tote on your left. Much better from an ergonomic view point. Those little movements add up as you get older!
You left out the elderly also. :) It's also a safety issue too: most ppl don't wear steel toe shoes inside the house & if you loose grip on a large piece of firewood... Smaller pieces season faster & more versatile in the wood stove.
I'm 65 and 5'6" a retired Navy Senior Chief, who used to split her own firewood with an adze & hatchet...and really no offense taken here, in fact, both my arthritic wrists appreciate your courtesy. ⚓ 🤣
I am 74 and I do enjoy your channel. You have an amazing amount of equipment. I had a nice shop as well but not not even close to what you've amassed, I do understand, " he who has the right tools, wins " you may want to expound on that because not all of us have the same recources.
You are a class act. Don’t apologize for being a normal person that cares about other people. GOD will take care of us, and the rest will just need to deal with it.
Between the pond and the garage build there's been a lot of (you tube) time invested. I'd forgotten about the axis but thought we were overdue for a sawmill video. Given that you have a fulltime job and a young family I'd imagine your spread pretty thin. I was going to tease you a while back about having too many toys and not enough time to play with them all but really that's a sign of success. Keep being you.
I like smaller splits for many reasons, the main purpose being ease of handling by everyone. Especially denser hardwood species. Women, men, kids, elderly folks of all shapes and sizes should be able to handle firewood easily. Smaller splits also dry much faster in a stack. Clean and efficient burning is another good reason to go smaller. It's common sense. Adam, you haven't said anything that anyone should take offense to. Have a great one!
It’s a sad world when you have to think about offending someone, when what your doing makes common sense. It’s common sense that the haters don’t have much of. Your out there busting your hump doing something that you enjoy to make a better life for you and your family. Keep up the good work, can’t wait till you hit that 100,000.
I like to the comment by the woman who says she may not be as big the men she’s just smarter; she lets them do all the heavy lifting!!! 💯 😝 Thanks for your HONEST content, Adam! God Bless You and Yours!
I am very grateful that you mentioned the hand size thing. I am 7ft and I have pretty big hands. As I just started using a log splitter I did even think about the size of the logs. Very thoughtful. My wife is 5'7" and her hands are half the size of mine. That was a good mention (comment). Thanks!
I seen nothing wrong with what you said I have been doing firewood for 22 years now. When I get a new customer one of the 1st things I ask is how much does you wife take care of the stove what ever the answer I will ask do you need me to make smaller wedges for her and I will get back that would be nice of you. I have a older lady thats in her 80s and I do custom firewood for her that is 13 to 14 inches long and small wedges so she can still enjoy wood heat that she loves so much it makes me feel good I can do this for her its not that much extra work for me with my dyna sc-16 processor and she is so happy with what I do for her. There is somebody that takes the wood into the house for her every other day but she can feed the stove on her own and keeps her independent. stay safe and good cutting
That’s so nice. As a long term nurse, I strongly believe that keeping someone in their home as long as possible is best. Thanks for being kind! We need more of it 😊
Adam, it sure is funny that you make a firewood video and most of the comments are about a clairafication statement! Look at Chris @ in the woodyard. He always says he makes the splits smaller because the lady of the house takes care of fires during the day. Keep the great videos coming and one should never have to apologize for being honest!
sad when we have to worry about apologize - most normal people know what you meant and completely agree with it. I appreciate you being respectful about it. Keep up the good work
Don’t worry or care about people who never had done handwork or similar jobs. A lot of those who talk about your explanation of physical realities , I think they never had used tools or parts bigger than spoon, knife or fork. I am tired about this people. Keep up your great work😎🇩🇪🙋🏻♂️
There is something very satisfying about splitting wood. Watching and doing it. I too think it’s a sad set of affairs that you had to explain something that was not intended to offend. We are a society made by our own indiscretions. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe
I think you might enjoy this: my wife is wanting me to sell bundled firewood because we live close to a dry lake bed where lots if people go offroading and camping, I gave her my shopping list of things that I'd need to do this.....she's now ok with me just cutting it for us 😂
Great video Adam, Joe at Ohio Wood Burner has a similar situation as does Chris from In The Woodyard, yes a processor does help tremendously but as you, Joe, and Chris have said, you are going to get those pieces that you need a splitter to process down further to make the size firewood your customer prefers. The customer sets what they will pay for and you are in the customer satisfaction business and keep the customer happy which keeps them coming back. Keep up the great work and the great videos coming. 👍🏻👍🏻
Hey Adam you may already have this suggestion or thought of this. I would cut off the fatter end of the log if you think the log will be to big for the Japa wedge and buck it up for the Axis. Great set up you have, hope your damn is squared away now so you can kick back and enjoy and not have to worry about it anymore.
Buy a giant roll of burnable twine like a hemp twine and wrap up bundles of kindling for the firewood stand. Gets rid of excess, makes profit and helps the ppl who buy firewood from a stand start their fires. Heck you could place a sign that says "You Won't Even Need An Axe!"
Three other woodyard channels have gotten big ole processors . I was about to ask all of them if their processors would do the necessary re splitting to alleviate the second splitter ( axis) But You answered that question for me. Have you ceased accepting the tree service shipments all together? Good vid good to see you back in the woodyard
It’s pretty said that you have to explain your comment regarding sizing fire wood. If people are that easily offended than they should be the ones apologizing. Love the Channel keep on cranking out the videos👍
I don't sell wood but what I cut for myself I split down to a opened handspan size. That's bigger than what I can carry with 1 hand and heavy enough that the better half tends to leave for me to feed the heater. The less splitting that I have to do the less wear and tear on me. With the market for splitters being what it is at the moment I'd consider doing the resplits with the Japa and selling off the Axis. You could probably get close to the new cost of the splitter and for resplitting it wouldn't be much of a time penalty.
I can't wait for Adam to pause his video on finishing up the garage and he gives us his hot take on Roe v Wade or gun laws! I'm here for the dumpster fire baby!!!!
I agree with the others. The sexist thing didn’t even enter my mind until you pointed it out. You are just being considerate of other people. And by the way your wood yard is looking awesome 👍
It seems that set up, arranging and preparation before you even start the splitter or processor is key to the operation running close to maximum efficiency.
My wife and the woman that lives with us think a gallon of milk is too heavy anything over 4 pounds is avoided. Dont use wood furnace because they cannot load it. They were much stronger when younger. My two female cousins took over running a farm when their father got injured. They are two of the strongest women I know and are stronger than the average man. They are outliers.. I prefer larger pieces for a wood fireplace but smaller ones for stoves and furnaces. Smaller pieces will make most people happier. If they are buying bundles it is not for every day use.
While doing the resplitting, wouldn't it be more efficient to raise the blue loglift deck, put the full basket on that side and load the deck with as much as possible to reduce your trips?
Haha I cracked up when you paused the video, cause when you said that, I knew someone would get upset about it, and then you paused it... great videos Adam keep it up man!
I completely agree with you Adam that our world is so "woke" that someone might be offended by your statement. Keep making the great videos and don't worry about those who are looking for offense.
So sad that our world has turned into this ridiculous place where you have to stop your videos to apologize for something so ridiculous. If someone has a problem with your statement about women or girls not being able to pick up heavier logs - oh well, they're just looking for something to complain about - who cares!! I appreciate that you think about that & try to help us girls 😉😍👍💞 God bless you and your family, Adam!!
Agreed. It's unfortunate that you have to apologize for accommodating physical limitations when moments before you stated that it was uncomfortable for you at 6' 5" to pick up a large piece of wood. Sad that being considerate is construed as some kind of slight.
Only a bad minded person would read any sexism into what you said. I, as a woman...really appreciate men who are considerate of us ladies. We are, on average smaller and I know I appreciate men who still behave like gentlemen...this is a good thing, no matter how much some idiots out there try to make it seem negative.
Can you believe this guy?? What a jerk! I may have to unsubscribe! I mean - what kind of jerk is so insensitive as to size-shame firewood in this day and age?? C'mon man - even big wood has value! Is smaller wood any more attractive? NO! Big wood is just as good as small wood! And just as useful! Sheesh! Is the bark any less attractive? Does it not burn as well?? ALL wood has beauty and value! Get with the times and get woke Adam!! (For anyone who was too slow to catch on, that was a satirical sarcastic comment mocking our current "woke" culture and peoples over-sensitivity to some topics! Keep up the good work Adam!)
No you are not a "sexist" you are a nice guy just talking business. Hey it is 115 degrees in Phoenix where I live...85 degrees here people have boots and coats on.
Holy Cow; don't apologize to the morons that might be offended, those people wake up every morning looking to be offended and they always succeed - Apology only gives them fuel to bully others. Motor-on with your content and stop worrying, it's all good
Adam, it makes me sad that the 'Woke' crowd is seemingly dictating how the rest of the country/world operates, I for one would Love to get back to just living life the way I did as a kid, we could tell jokes about all sorts of different subjects, people, places, things. Just my 2 cents here, Love your channel and I too think OWTM made you spend $350k, lol. Love that channel also. Take Care.
I copied this from Brian below as I feel he said it so well. "Great videos! Don’t apologize, I found the people that are offended and want an apology are the same people that will say things to offend you and not apologize. You are a great guy with a kind heart."
Appreciate the view into the business model and am bummed you felt the need to qualify your statements. I am curious to learn at what point your business gets big enough to hire someone.
Adam, we live in a world where a few people want to change society, so they feign offense over differences in gender. If anyone is too thin skinned to understand how benign your comments were, then they really don't deserve to enjoy the content you put out. (IMO) Have a great day and week. I hope your enjoying the pond this summer.
At times it makes more sense to just run the log through as it comes and resplit later. At what stage in the firewood business, aka volume, would it make sense to upgrade to a smaller processor as the primary machine? If I upgrade to a processor, might be an el cheapo like the Range-Road and line up the logs for a log lift like Joe at OWB did with his first two processors. For what my commercial grade splitter costs, could've bought the Range-Road with log lift. But then I'd still need a splitter to do resplits or constantly do that on the processor.
Most viewers realize the ridiculous times we are living in. I appreciate your attempt to not offend anyone. I prefer the smaller split wood.
Me, too, Adam's Mom. I have no problem admitting I'm weaker than my hubby. Who cares!! We're smarter, because we let them pick up the heavy stuff!! 🤣🤣🤣
Not true about the smarter - my hubby is stronger & smarter than I am. That's why God gave him to me! 🤷♀️💃💞 Have a great day! Your son is amazing!!
Hahaha Dianne!
My wife does 90% of the wood stove loading, so we split the wood to suit HER!
And I'm good with that!

Great set up you have, hope your damn is squared away now so you can kick back and enjoy and not have to worry about it anymore.
great episode
Add a solar Kiln, to dry the wood! Power it with solar panels and wind win win, way faster drying times!
Buy a giant roll of burnable twine like a hemp twine and wrap up bundles of kindling for the firewood stand. Gets rid of excess, makes profit and helps the ppl who buy firewood from a stand start their fires. Heck you could place a sign that says "You Won't Even Need An Axe!"
Crazy that people get offended over the most harmless things… the axis is perfect for re-splitting like you did here!
Couldn’t agree more
Great job Adam! No need to change anything or apologize for anything!
Three other woodyard channels have gotten big ole processors .
I was about to ask all of them if their processors would do the necessary re splitting to alleviate the second splitter ( axis)
But
You answered that question for me.
Have you ceased accepting the tree service shipments all together?
Good vid good to see you back in the woodyard
I know where you're coming from. Lucky for you I doubt much of your audience has purple hair. Thanks for all the educational videos.
The smaller wood is also better/easier handling for people like me with shoulder injuries, or older people who aren't as strong as they used to be.
Amen!!! All the P.C. nonsense has gone to far when you have to worry about people.
It’s pretty said that you have to explain your comment regarding sizing fire wood. If people are that easily offended than they should be the ones apologizing. Love the Channel keep on cranking out the videos👍

Good vid. I'm starting my firewood business on family farms. I'm hoping my 46 year old body will keep up.
I like having about a quarter of my wood being on the large size. I use them for overnight so they last till morning.
It seems that set up, arranging and preparation before you even start the splitter or processor is key to the operation running close to maximum efficiency.

No you are not a "sexist" you are a nice guy just talking business. Hey it is 115 degrees in Phoenix where I live...85 degrees here people have boots and coats on.
No need to apologize, just ignore the idiots. Good rule, don't apologize if you haven't done anything wrong, it just makes the idiots look right.
Good looking set up neighbor
Just as a general rule, I split hardwoods small and softwoods larger (about like your "resplit" pile)
Such a sad world we live in now when u have to explain u wasnt be sexist ,its just s fact carry on what u keep doing stay safe xx
No worries, keep up the good work 👍
I’m offended by anyone who would be offended by you speaking honest reality.
Holy Cow; don't apologize to the morons that might be offended, those people wake up every morning looking to be offended and they always succeed - Apology only gives them fuel to bully others. Motor-on with your content and stop worrying, it's all good
Adam, it makes me sad that the 'Woke' crowd is seemingly dictating how the rest of the country/world operates, I for one would Love to get back to just living life the way I did as a kid, we could tell jokes about all sorts of different subjects, people, places, things. Just my 2 cents here, Love your channel and I too think OWTM made you spend $350k, lol. Love that channel also. Take Care.
I copied this from Brian below as I feel he said it so well. "Great videos! Don’t apologize, I found the people that are offended and want an apology are the same people that will say things to offend you and not apologize. You are a great guy with a kind heart."
Appreciate the view into the business model and am bummed you felt the need to qualify your statements. I am curious to learn at what point your business gets big enough to hire someone.
I didn’t hear a sexist comment I heard someone wanting to make life easier for his loved ones
Adam, we live in a world where a few people want to change society, so they feign offense over differences in gender. If anyone is too thin skinned to understand how benign your comments were, then they really don't deserve to enjoy the content you put out. (IMO) Have a great day and week. I hope your enjoying the pond this summer.
are you gonna add any fish to the pond? would be cool to see
It’s all about having the right tool for the job.
I always appreciate smaller wood. No apologies, just common curtesy!,
At times it makes more sense to just run the log through as it comes and resplit later. At what stage in the firewood business, aka volume, would it make sense to upgrade to a smaller processor as the primary machine? If I upgrade to a processor, might be an el cheapo like the Range-Road and line up the logs for a log lift like Joe at OWB did with his first two processors. For what my commercial grade splitter costs, could've bought the Range-Road with log lift. But then I'd still need a splitter to do resplits or constantly do that on the processor.
It looks like you’re running low on fluid. Keeping the tank full will keep fluid temps down. Also, how did you get those dents in the splitter edge?
Maybe you might want to wrap or bag up that kindling and sell that.
Bag up your kindling and sell it by the bag as firestarter.
