Had the opportunity to try out a @WolfeRidgeSplitters 17VS vertical log splitter to see how it could help mini firewood production.

Thanks for the help Shifty! Hope it helps you get caught up on your mini wood orders!
It definitely made a lot in a short time!
Nice that you were able to help out the Wolfe Ridge gang and get to use the 17VS in exchange. That is great production of the mini firewood for that period of time!
Great video! I agree that the operator has to stay focused. 🇺🇸
Definitely the machine for that job! I made a ton of kindling with mine while I had it😂 Take care Shif-T👊🏻🍻
You know if you keep that wolf ridge machine they'll either call you the mini firewood king or they'll call you stumpy!😂
@@rexcamp261 or "short wood Danny".
Looks like it works great for that
Watch those fingers Wood Hound 😳😂👍🏻
That was cool of Wolfe Ridge to let you use it for a few days.
It benefits them as well. Videos made talking about it and showing it off. Then people like me see it and want It!
You could make a jig for holding your wood (😂) while splitting. It was nice of Chris to repay a favor for a favor 👍
Good idea…if I ever end up going with a machine like this that would be handy.
Nice! Definitely ideal for the mini wood production👍👍
Great video, please keep your fingers in tact. Ask Phil @ Allen’s Family Firewood about his splitting experience. Keep them coming.
Great for you Dan on making your Mini Firewood Splits.
So Nice of Bob Nelson (Great Guy) to let you use it for a few Days.
I hope to start bagging some next year and selling it, Bagged only.
Be in Touch, either see you tomorrow at the Podcast or on Thursday. Bad Storms for us Later. Getting set up for That. Ron from the Woodyard in Duanesburg NY.
PS, Almost Got in trouble Sunday as I did to much, but alright.
Another excellent video Dan 😮😊❤five bags that little boss man doesn’t have to do
Im really liking this machine!! Great idea to use it and the bundker to elevate your mini firewood!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day
It is a great machine and works pretty good for this mini splits.
One of my goals is to get a machine like this. I've been wanting a vertical splitter forma while now
Wow that's cool brother. I'm hoping that splitter is in your future...PEACE FROM CREEL
Hi Dan That Wolfe Ridge 17 BS is just What you Need in the Wood Yard and the Can to Put your Mini Splits in is right There for Easy Production ‼️👍
Hi Dan QQQ What do you Charge for the Mini Split Bundle s I think You Might have a Great Machine to Work with My Only Concern is you Really have to be Alert with the Wedge and your Hands So Close By with your Foot Pedal Operating the Controls i think Maybe the Only adjustment I think Wolfe Ridge Should Make Would be to have a Cever Belt on the Table Circle around in a Tray to keep the Wood from Falling Out and have a Joy Stick to Operate the Wedge That Way you Could Run it Fast and it Would be a lot more Safer and More Productive just like a Assembly line just keep Running the Pieces around the Track and Splitting the Mini Wood Till you get the right Amount of Splits 👍
Oh yes you have to really watch what you are doing…it’s definitely not a something you want to try to split in a hurry.
Mini firewood definitely requires precise controlled splits. A vertical splitter is ideal.
Yes it does…but ya gotta keep your eye on what’s going on.
hi there well i saw it and i was paying attention but i am old and don't remember it ,
I think the electric version would fit your needs better
I'd have a 17VSC if the deal hadn't blown up for a couple of reasons. Mostly because I added up the interest payments and that added up to a 7000# paid for dump trailer!
Why doesn't the WolfRidge bagger empty onto the platform? After seeing a few wood hounds with it I think it would be better production to have it land on the plate. Just an observation. To bad there isn't a smaller version of a vertical splitter on the market - that would be perfect for what you are doing. Stay safe.
9/10 times its cause of how close that table is to the turn of the bucket itself. You also need a place to set your bag down to tie is unless you lime being bent over everytime!!
I think the table is also counterweight for the whole unit,also. It keeps it from being tippy with all the weight on one side.
Split-fire makes a 7 ton vertical splitter. But it is only towable by lawn tractor.
@@willdavidsonakawd3062yup, exactly. thanks!
👍
Is there any way to adjust the initial height of the wedge lower to work more safely?
Also, your small wood was stringy today...
There is a stroke limiter on the side of beam. Don't know if there is a 'max.' limit to deck.
Edit: Just watched Bob's demo vid again; looks like it can be adjusted down to 12" - 14" off of deck.
Yep I had the stroke limiter adjusted…it just doesn’t go down close enough to 5”.
Hey, Dan...is it cheaper to run than Little Boss Man.....and don't forget to count your fingers afterwards.
I think little boss man might be a tad cheaper…unless demand really goes up! lol
That definitely sped up production. But would it put LBM out of business? I even saw a piece of mini BW lol.
Bill
Little Boss man is moving more into the packing & shipping department 😀
hand pincher ask rachel
Although it is a very nice machine.... the time required vs output and quantity of sales...... seems too unproductive. Regardless....it is still impressive.
