      Have you run a good splitter like the 28PRO yet? If not, you'll be saying stuff like "wish I had bought one sooner"! That was my reaction when I first ran my 28C.

      Matt's a great guy, he also has a 28C Compact Commercial. He's made some really good content with both of those splitters.

  • @thefirewooddoctor
    @thefirewooddoctor 5 місяців тому +1

    How about a video on the welding process used to make these splitters? Looks like it is gas shielded flux-core to get a good penetration on the thick metal.

    • @BacktoBob1

      We could do a video explaining the different processes because there are multiple, and to be honest I'm not sure on which all processes are used yet.

    Great video, I have a 50 hp TYM tractor. I wonder if you could pick up with the forks using a tractor to show us how easy to maneuver around the wood yard thank you.

    • @BacktoBob1
      @BacktoBob1 4 місяці тому

      You should be able to no problem. We don't have tractor here at the factory but I could certainly make a video showing moving it with our forklift. I would recommend if moving it with forks, to drive very slow and avoid rough terrain / hills. If on rough terrain or hills, use the hitch instead.
