    I just realized all the time I have spent watching your videos adds up to about 200 hours!! If I had processed firewood on my processor I could have 400 cords more done. Chris In the Woodyard is killing my firewood business!! Thanks and keep up the good work!

    Good morning Chris, I just finished up a large pile of Almond rounds. I discovered a new split "for me" on the large rounds split in the center then keep the round vertical and split off a 2"-3" wide slab. Now when I lay the slat flat I split off 3" wide almost square pieces. Its faster and the finished wood looks like it would bundle so much better. Good to see you back on the saw and splitter.

  • @grantsinclair4278
    @grantsinclair4278 2 роки тому +6

    So Chris, you have managed to squeeze every ounce of efficency out of one of the least expensive models of the Eastonmade lineup.
    And as we both know efficency and long hrs. are the the key to maximum firewood production.
    If it weren't for the constant bending over, and lifting large heavy oak rounds I deal with, I would have chosen the Ultra over the Axis. I run my splitters vertical in a comfy chair.
    Getting soft in my old age!
    I do quite enough bending over backwards for my Wife! Lol
    Great video. And now...
    Up, up and awayyy to the woodyard. Have a great day everyone. Another 105 degree day for G Daddy.

  • @larryvankirk7423
    @larryvankirk7423 2 роки тому +3

    Hello Chris, IMHO the ultra produces a much more consistent product with far less (almost none) waste or kindling when using the single wedge. Cycle time is so fast it almost looks like you produce more wood in less time when you consider the 4way clean up time and sorting kindling plus the wood that is lost to waste. I really like the way that ash was splitting. GNI

    • @thefirewooddoctor
      @thefirewooddoctor 2 роки тому +1

      If the Ultra had a hydraulically adjustable wedge, would be a lot less waste with the 4-way wedge. The wings don't grt in the way of resplits. But with that knotty tree service wood, a lot less trouble and is quicker with the single wedge. Don't have to fight the knots much.

  • @TakeNoneForTheTeam
    @TakeNoneForTheTeam 2 роки тому +2

    G' Mornin'! Does split size affect final volume of wood? If you had a full cord stacked with 1/2 splits, then re-split and made 5" pieces, then re-split and made your size, would that end up making more/less of a cord for each scenario? Just like licks on a tootsie pop, the world may never know. It'd be interesting, but a lot of extra stacking.

  • @JesseLJohnson
    @JesseLJohnson 2 роки тому +1

    I save the notch pieces from when I drop a tree for firewood too. It all burns and a lot of the time they are about the same size as the stuff I am splitting. A guy that works in my body shop has a wood stove he can only fit no more then 10-12 inch pieces into. I have got some tree service wood that was cut to 20-24 inch or so pieces so I blocked it down small for him. He normally buys firewood and then cuts it in half himself lol. Figured I could sell him at least a truck load or 2 that were the right size for his tiny stove lol

    Any thoughts on dropping the cookie door on the 22 MB and using the splitter to split up your TS wood. I know it would take 2 people to be efficient but I would give it a shot. I would have the rounds in your Kioti bucket to reduce the amount of manual lifting. Also then the split wood would be dropped into your dump trailer. Just a thought. Great video!

Wearing your blue tights, showing off your big red "S" probably wouldn't be the smartest thing either. - I've wondered, how does that hyper speed work? Does it make you hotter, or does the speedy movement cool you off more? And those of us who come from the planet Turtle, how can we compete? Inquiring minds need to know!!
