    We don’t pay anyone it’s all family but it sure is nice having help . For the money spent I don’t think there’s a faster splitter out there . Them super splits sure are fast an get the job done . I got a good laugh when you said how many kids ya have an why you will be splitting wood for a long time. To be honest you get more wood split than most all the big UA-cam guys do with there big fancy borrowed splitters . Always love watching ya down to earth videos Jacob .

      That’s great you get help from your family like you do. That says a lot about the kind of folks yall are!! Yeah, I agree. It’s hard to beat the production out of a SS for the money invested in it. 😂😂. Glad you liked that, it’s pretty well true about the kids. My oldest is 13 so I got some time to save. 😉.

    Hey there Jacob! Fun video today! I really enjoy dropping by the channel to visit every time an look forward to your videos! Great to have the extra hands there that day! Great camera angles and lots of great footage of the Super Splitter! About the end topic, I’m not quite sure as I don’t really have any experience in that, but I think with a few discussions between you and him on that topic, you both will come up with something that works nicely for you and him 🔥💯👍. Anyways buddy, take good care, an we’ll see you soon again! Cheers! Andrew from NB :)

      Glad it was helpful! Comments like yours make it worth the time and effort! Kinetic splitters won’t muscle through crotch pieces like a hyd will but makes up for it with speed. It will split knots or crotches but I try to pick and choose which to mess with. I plan to do a video on that one day.

    I think the equipment your using suits most smaller operations like us well. Even with 2 guys it’s hard to get full potential out of the big comercial splitters because you’ll get tired quick working at the pace they can go at. I’ve always thought the best way to pay woodyard help is by the amount you get done. Like x amount per basket. How hard they work dictates what they make. 2 slow guys will make a lot less wood then you and your nephew. Keep up the good work!

    • @TwinCityFirewood
      @TwinCityFirewood  10 місяців тому +1

      Appreciate your input Genin!
      I like the way you think. And you’re right about keeping up with a productive splitter. I go by X amount per basket or X amount per hour and figure out which one pays the most and I’ll usually go with the higher price if they worked hard which has usually been the case.
      Appreciate you as always buddy!!

    Fyi Jacob I just subscribed. I'm from Cincinnati, Ohio and also known as obie. Been liking your channel and enjoy how you present your videos on You Tube. I currently own the WR pro 28c, but am seriously considering the J model Super Splitter as a back up and get in tight places. The WR can bust down anything and prep for the Super Split for more precision.
    As far as paying for help, I have on a couple of occasions, but I'm still not there on a regular basis. Best of luck!

When it’s your business you do what you have to do. And let me tell you. Firewood is an awesome business. You meet so many good people and people talk. Having a good product, the word spreads fast and before you know it your sold out before the season even begins. Trust me you can grow that into something really big if you wanted. Something your kids can run one day and you sit back and smile at what you created for them. That’s my goal for my boys.

      @@bbeaudrie19 I can’t really remember how long it took us that day but on average I split a loose basket by myself in 25 mins with just a steady pace. Hope that helps and glad you liked the video!!
      Appreciate your comment!! 👊🏻

    Pay in kind, go help him do something?

      I like your style… he’s my nephew so we’re obligated to help each other when needed 😂. He is good help, definitely worth the cost of pay and seems to enjoy firewood. I think we’ll be doing this more often.
      I appreciate your input and time watching!!

    How much you pay him per hour in US dollars should be directly dependent on who he votes for this year..... it's the american way.🙂
