- Full Disclosure. I failed to mention I had run one log thru the machine before we started filming. I was wanting to get the hydraulics warmed up.

Never redundant! This is why we are all here!!!
I know this is an older video but I just love how perfect the firewood is that comes off this machine. Every video I see of the perfect split is just awesome!
I love watching your machine run. After doing fire wood for 60 years I can just sit and watch how to do it the right way.
LOL I bet you are right John. I know from my evolution how much nicer things are with this Big Red Machine!
I don't think there is a more efficient and cost effective way for one man to make premium firewood! Your process is very well thought out, the work flow is spot on. Great video and great work!
That conveyer mods looks like working a treat Joe 👍
Simply put: Awesome Joe! Time to add a cup holder and a cooler for those cold Dr. Peppers. 👍🏻👍🏻
LOL it has one. I don't think I've ever shown it!
When you are processing wood, the material that falls out of the screening system can be turned into a usable product instead of a waste stream, it is about perfect material for biochar, specifically in a cone kiln or flame cap kiln, check it out.
AN IDEA Joe: videos highlighting your daughter(s) using the Japa 405 & stacking the splits. Get them some screen time and skill building. Tim in northern TN
LOL That has been discussed. There is some resistance amongst the ranks
@@ohiowoodburner entice them with EMPLOYEE of the MONTH tee shirts! 😎😜😇. Tim
Nice job! Keep knocking it out of the park this year.
Happy New Year! Thanks RDB!
Great machine 💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪👍👍👍👍👍👍👍💯💯🤘😎🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
That was incredibly satisfying. When I used to cut/split wood for myself it was a lot harder! 🙂 Thank you and Happy New Year to you, your family, and your business. Can't wait to see the next episode...
Thanks Dave. It is something to make this much firewood and not break a sweat!
A good machine and a good operator is hard to beat. Plus nice weather. Thanks, great show.
The weather has been awesome! Happy new year Jon!
Its Alive! Happy New Year Joe, The Beast Rules! 🚜❄️🪵🇺🇸
The big red machine was really cranking it out Larry!!!!
Love that 405 set up!!
it is an amazing machine Steve! Happy New Year!
Joe…..Best wishes to you and your family for 2023. 🎉👍
Thanks RG. Same to you buddy
Happy New Year Joe! Looking forward to your vids in 2023! Keep up the good work! Len (Devon 🇬🇧)
Happy new year Len! I will try my best!
Happy New Year to you and your family Joe.
Same to you Timmy K!!
Happy New Year, Joe . Good video . I think if the company is watching your videos, they are going to up the hp on the machines in the future.
Much of that is operator error. I can adjust the bar pressure but I seem to forget to do it most of the time I vid. In this case I was running a fresh chain and it was cutting aggressive with too much pressure. Had I dialed it back it would have been fine. Happy New Year Gary!
Amazing video of the 405 production...man that thing is fast!!! You will certainly be keeping your stacking help very busy. Happy 2023!!
Happy New Year, Joe.🎉 Thanks for a fun filled year of videos. Enjoy your family.
Thanks Al! Happy new year!
Hi Joe, Happy New Year to you and your family. All the best for 2023........
Thanks Honda. Same to you buddy
I congratulate you on a great channel, a great "splitting system", and a great 2022 year.
For a "one man show", there is nothing I found that comes close. The bull work is pretty much eliminated. The Eastonmade 12-22's are nice, but the bull work is still present.
I am looking forward to your progress in 2023. Best wishes!
Happy New Year!! The 405 mesmerizing!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day
It sure is Dave. Thanks!
December 30, I see you’re wearing your winter wear …? Elaine from Canada here, I also see that you’re developing a keen eye for odd shaped rounds for use by wood workers/ crafters! Who knows what price mushroom, heart, diamond or club shaped ones can fetch? Perhaps you’re stumbling into a new side hustle in an untapped market?
But isn’t it wonderful Joe to be able to enjoy doing “work” and meanwhile being in awe of your machine. What a gift. Best wishes for good health and a prosperous new year. 🎉
Thanks Elaine! I think there are tons of opportunities that I have yet to realize. Happy new year to you my friend!
Joe you are a hard worker great way to start the new year with a video from you happy new year
Thanks Bob! Happy new year buddy!
Shorts & a t-shirt are the uniform of the day in between arctic blasts.
At least this week it was John LOL
Looking good joe!!! I hope you have a record year!! I know we are bush with getting wood stockpiled for the spring rush at the moment !!!
Happy New Year Joe, been some great videos this year, thank you.
Sure thing Vinny! Happy new year to you too buddy
Happy New Year Joe! Wishing you the best in 2023.
Happy new year Brad!
Happy New Year's Joe!! That sized log was just about darn near perfect for that Japa to chew thru!! There's so many different things happening at the same time, just Wowzers! Sawdust collected, debris collected, clean handy sized wood collected.... We know where the wood goes, how bout the dust and debris??
Viable sources of income?
You've got to have 4 face cords of clean cut wood!! in 27 minutes??? You gonna keep Trucker Jesse busy!!
The scraps and waste are an opportunity for me but for now I don't have the bandwidth to deal with it. I have been dumping them on the ground. Happy new year Greg!
Great video Joe. Had an idea. You said u ran all maple you could attach a bag to the sawdust shoot would give u maple shavings u could then sell as chips or if you could find another way to market them??🤔🏴👍
Wow that is one firewood making machine 👍 Happy New Year Joe.
Thanks Buddy!
If they get that stacking machine built, you will sure enough be in business. Happy New Year.
Ain't that the truth Billy?! Why can't someone invent a stacking machine?
That 405 is a beast. The Hakki Pilke falcon35 works pretty good for us for now. Daddy needs to build a log in feed table.
You got a super nice machine Millie. I hope you have a great new year!
That a wood log splitting beast
It sure is Larry!
Very impressive!! Enjoyed your video very much. Happy New Year. 😊
Happy new year MR!
Can we see a nice big load like that getting stacked please?
haha. You can watch it on evenings you have trouble sleeping!
Happy New Year Joe! I hope your 2023 is even better!
Thanks buddy! 2022 was a great year. I hope 2023 is even better!
Happy new year. Great video now comes the job of stacking it’s the bottle neck for all producers who stack. If you could run the machine a full 8 hours you would need 8 trailers or 4 helpers feeding you and stacking or a week to stack alone. But by producing it fast allows time to do other things in life that come up. I use hay wagons and my dump trailer to load up so I can stack later. I won’t tell you how many wagons I have but there all full. Peace
I hear you Bill. I just keep a pace that is productive and fun for me. I don't want to wear myself out or make things a drag. My HS kid has been a big help for me.
Happy new year to you and your family, there was a fantastic video
Thanks Keith. Happy new year!
Geeze Joe, you're hard core with the shorts even at 60 degrees
ha. Not really. This was perfect temps for this time of year! The ground on the other hand is way too soft!
The wood is good! Happy new year 🎊🎆
Happy new year Eric!
Happy New Year to you and yours 👍👍
Happy new year Lance!
Happy New Year! 👍👍👍
Same to you buddy
Happy New Year Joe to you and your family. Stay safe.
Happy new year Gregg!
You're definitely a lot faster on the machine, even with the bad logs. 2 cords an hour is pretty good with that machine.
You got that right Derek! This is about as fast as it gets for me. I can have all the wood I care to stack made in 30m!
Happy New year Joe it's time to put some great videos in the new year
I will do my best Dale! Happy New Year!
HAPPY NEW YEAR
JOE, I live in North Lewisburg, Ohio
But I spend the winter in the Philippines, God Bless
I like your actions and your information you put out
My old job was trying to send me to Davoa City before I left. Never been to that part of the world but it's prob different than central Ohio !!! Thanks for watching Terry!
Happy New Year to you and your family Joe! Have a great day!
Same to you Don! Happy new year!
Happy new year Joe and the camera woman 👌 (she's the real star 🤠😃)
HAPPY NEW YEAR , have a great day
Happy new year Big Bird
Awesome footage always 💪
Thanks Randy!
The smell of productivity in the wood yard has gone from 2-stroke to diesel. Do you start the dolmar just for memories?😎
LOL. It has been a while Harold. I do have some big logs staged for some upcoming projects with it!
Good job
Thanks Steve. Happy new year!
I wish you and yours a happy and healthy 2023
Happy new year Jelle!
Hi Joe , I think you can do it a little bit faster if you can get your next log onto your feed conveyer while you are still working on a log so you dont have to stop to get the next log on.
I agree but I have tried in on any occasions and it just never seems to work as good as you think. You wind up fussing with the trailing log, you have to run back the lead log etc and things get hairy real quick. Thanks Greg!
That Japa real cranks it out!
Happy New Year to you and yours.
Happy new year Dave!
happy new year! kind of all looks like kindling to me though.. no overnight wood there.
I make wood for my customers, not myself. Small splits is where the money is at!!.
Happy New Year. Weird to see you wearing shorts at the end of December. The weather sure has been wacky this holiday season.
You got that right. Feels like May! Happy New Year!
Joe have you thought about the smaller solo stove, miniature wood??? For value added? The younger kids seem to be graduating to the smaller fire pits, stoves??
That could be a thing but for now I just don't have any interest. It seems I can't keep my supply in shape for traditional bulk. Some day maybe. Thanks Greg
hi there well done // Happy NewYear all John
Thanks John! HNY to you too buddy!
That's awesome production joe.hope you had a good new years and slugged down a few dr peppers...whoooo ! 👍
haha! Happy new year Bob!
Stupid question?? What is the life of the saw blade? Is it a Self sharpening saw ? Easy to change out chain ? Every thing else you have set up nicely. Catching chips and saw dust, nice to have clean wood. Thank you for your post.
Hi Ray. The chain lasts about 5- cords. It is moderately a pain to change but I am getting better at it. I have a past vid where I show how it's done. Thanks for the nice comment and please subscribe if you haven't done so yet. Thanks buddy
Hi Joe!!😀😀
Happy New Year!!😀😀
Nice pile of wood in a short amount of time!!
Take care my friend!!.
Logger Al
Happy new year Al!
Happy New Year Joe!
Same to you Tom!
Nice video, happy new year.
Thanks Jorge! Happy new year to you buddy
That’s a nice Mixture of maple Ash Oak, Happy New Year, Joey
It was all maple. The one log looked dark but it had just stained from sitting. Happy new year Ebele!
Since you’re using a box wedge,…I was wondering if you could slow the saw cut down so that it doesn’t slow the pusher plate while bogging the engine down.
Joe, Japa needs a "log roller" button on their processors. It would save you from opening the hood, to shift the round to avoid splitting thru a knot! 60° weather is much better than 10°!
Happy new year.
PS: I heard Andrew Easton on a live stream, tell a story of a guy who installed "perfect split" on his Eastonmade wood processor. Why not just get a Japa, and save $100k, and get a 405?
The big 60C's, and 48C's, are so fast, and expensive to run, it just slows them down to install Perfect Split. Its a waste of money. There is no advantage to pay that much extra just to install Perfect Split?
Because of the JAPA perfect split patent, my idea for Eastonmade, is to install an "After Split" feature where it does automatic "resplits" on over sized split rounds coming out of the initial split!
Then, "they would have their cake and eat it too"! This would fix the biggest disadvantage on their big processors: re-spits! The big diesel engines just "gargle" the diesel fuel, they should at least address this issue, and give the customer more value for their $150k investment and operating expense!
The "After Split" feature would work as follows: the split chunks would be "pushed thru" an extra chamber, where "over sized chunks" would be detected, and extra wedges would be activated to further split the chunk. The speed of the processor would not be slowed down.
That sounds like an interesting thought process Gary. I would think the Eastonmades are not competitors for the Japa...just a different business model IMO. If the owner installed a box on one you would think they may have purchased a machine not ideal for their operation?
Happy New Year! Joe
Happy new year Savage!
have a great new year for all your family
Happy new year Donna!
Happy New Year Joe.
Happy new year Woody C!
Happy new year Mr firewood! Was a good video to start my new year.
Happy new year Brian!
Hey Joe, I have been watching and enjoying your videos for a few years. You may want to get one of those mics that plug into your iPhone and wear on your shirt. It would make it easier to hear you. You won’t have to shout. Anyway, stay safe and have a Happy New Year!
So I have a theory about this. I think one of the appeals of my vids...the way the camera follows me...gives the impression to the viewer that they are right next to me. Having to lift my voice over the drone of production plays along with that feel. If I were to use a mic and speak into it with conversational voice that would kill that perception. Just a theory...or I could be too cheap to buy one. LOL
Happy New Year, great weather this week here in NE Ohio !!
The weather is awesome Mark! Happy New Year!
Hi Joe - it's Big Rodders in Ireland. A New Year, and undoubtedly new challenges. In every production process, as volumes crank up bottlenecks can develop and require resolution. My perception is that now your bottleneck is in the stacking process and I'll be interested to learn in due course how your workflow evolves to tackle this issue. I have my own thoughts on the problem but it's too easy for us fireside experts to pontificate, which I'm sure can be an irritation to you.
ha ha. You can never be an irratation to me BR. I agree with you but still it seems the best solution is paying a HS kid $20 a cord. I like the Posh Packfix but it seems there would be some required processes developed that I may not be able to pull off just now. Only time will tell.
Another thing is his dependency on those temporary log mats. I am pretty sure that with good drainage he could have a network of cheap, reliable dirt roads.
It would require the use of a dirt machine to remodel the surface. With his tractor he could do the necessary repairs and maintenance. Short periods of mud and dust are likely with dirt roads. I believe good maintenance would be a substitute for the use of gravel.
He could look around in his area for examples of how dirt roads perform. They perform better with use because of compaction. He could start with small areas to get experience and to test the feasibility.
A lot depends on the soil texture which is composed of various combinations of sand, silt, and clay. Adding sand to critical areas would, most likely, help. Using sand would depend on the cost of the sand. Back-hauling sand with his trailer would cut the cost considerably.
Hi Jake - Big Rodders again. In theory I don't disagree but the Bold Joe is a sole operator and, unlike the vast majority of Log Hounds on UA-cam, relies on firewood production and sales for his only income stream, which focuses the mind greatly and influences how he has to expend his energies.

Okay.
Happy New Year love the sound of the Kubota diesel when it takes a load
It is a super nice runner. I need to put on a different exhaust tip bc that clanging gets old after a while LOL!! Happy New Year Dave!
Happy new year Joe, shorts and t shirt day 1
amazing weather isn't it? Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!!
Happy new year Dusty!
Beautiful weather up here in New England. Happy new year Bud. I just bought my first load of logs. Hopefully selling some bundles I live on a very busy road. Plus I burn of course
I will predict you will sell a lot at your roadside stand Dave. Happy new year!
@@ohiowoodburner kind of funny my old logo splitter got taken out by a dead Birch tree Saturday night.
Seems like more than cord? Nice machine.
It is just at 1 cord. Maybe a wheelbarrow less. Thanks Sam!
Happy New Year. What a great processing machine.
Happy new year Cyndi!
Red raspberry for me and red elm for the burn😊
ha ha. I don't think elm would have been this fast and nice looking!
Happy New year Joe hope you and your family have a great year.
Happy new year Mike!!!!
i wonder if the machine would benefit from a higher hp motor? i do understand the reason to stay at the 25hp mark for the diesels.
Happy New year, Joe! Well dun!
Happy new year Geezer!
Happy New Year Joe! Hope 2023 brings you continued success. Have you considered putting your Ultratech trailer under the roller screener? When it's full just pull it over to the wood boiler, shovel the scraps in, and they're gone!
I do but I have been using it for loading since the ground has gone soft.
@@ohiowoodburner That makes sense! Just trying to look at ways to keep your mess manageable. Tryin' to help a brotha out!😁
Nice work! Happy new year!
Happy new year KB!
The splits look awesome, do you notice more waste ?. From watching the video, it seems like a lot of lose wood laying around.
Keep in mind the temps you see are deceptive in time. Must of the scrap is still frozen to the ground. Also I have been cranking out wood as fast as I can given I ended deliveries thru the holidays and I have a break in the weather. I will clean up when I come up for air!
The perfect split is a box wedge built into the processor, they tend to produce more scrap vs a 4/6 way wedge. A vertical splitter produces the least amount of scrap. It’s a balance between speed, quality and scrap rate, with what your customer wants. Joe is really getting the most out of the 405 in this clip, due to the bigger logs, which are mostly straight.
Joe, when there is a bitty piece left on the second last stroke, why not cut another piece and split…..save a stroke ?
So much for the space invaders world record, darn log jams. I think that was Luigi's mushroom 🍄
haha. I thought the same thing!!! Thanks Brandon
Have a high value new year
Awesome! Thanks Jim!
What live deck is that Joe? Happy New Year to you and your Family
Happy new year Chad. It is the Japa 471.
Happy new year to you and your family and also long life and prosperity
Thanks Mr Hill! Happy New Year!
Have a safe and productive new year Joe# God bless
Thanks Dale. Happy new year!
Happy new year to you and your family
Thanks Jeff!!
Happy New Year
Same to you Larry!
Happy New Year Joe I've enjoyed your videos
Thanks Doug!
At 6:25 your 4 bolts that are on the ram that’s being pushed into the splitter will wear out and won’t be able to be taken off easily.
I don't see that happening but I have broken one if you look close you can see the lower right bolt is missing. These are grade 5 bolts and I may upgrade to grade 8. Thanks for watching Clay. I hope you have a great NY!!
Wow live action splitting
sure hope you like it. Just want to give you a nice vid to relax and watch for a holiday Steve!
Nice Joe
Happy new year Curt!
