    Chris and all, thank you for finding time to get together and make a great video. I really felt like i was there, we all share a passion for making firewood. Helping people bring warmth and light into their homes - this is what unites us! Thank you, Beaverton Family Firewood

    Tony I really like my AXIS with the electric starter. It took 18 months to get it, and when it arrived May of 2023 ~ it was love at first sight! LOL I am fortunate to have a Box store splitter I bought used (Troy-built) and it has a Honda 270 GX engine....I due love that engine also so I can relate to what your feelin'. Lastly, I have six of the nine Tools for the woodyard....Thanks Chris, this is where my retirement is leading too! Hahaha!!! Keith aka Cowboy Joy!

      Surgery went great. I am under strict restrictions. Can only lift a fork and spoon. No running, playing or jumping.
      The difference is incredible. I am seeing things I never knew existed.
      Left eye will be fixed on March 13.
      This is the most amazing thing I have ever experienced. The colors, crispness and detail is like looking through an electron microscope.

    Whens the Wisconsin woodhound demo day at the woodyard or at a fairgrounds or even at our sawmill. Lots of firewood UA-camrs in WI and metsa/japa and wolf ridge. Id bring my supersplit hd and my brother could bring his woodmizerLT35 full hydraulic to demo sawing 2 cedar logs at once and mill big walnut logs. Even bring our iron mule. Could also do it at our farm/ sawmill bc we have thousands of logs piled up already. Could even demo firewood processors,splitters, chippers chipping slabwood and running our board edger.

      Wayne. I had the same feelings until I found the Split-Fire 2265 with log lift. I’ve had box store splitters for 40 years but bought one of these last year. Commercial quality at a semi reasonable price. I love the bi directional splitting, no need to pull the wood back. Super fast, I run it on half throttle most of the time. Easy to move around too. I’ve split 36 inch logs on it.
