In today's video I bring the trailer full of large firewood rounds to Chris Wolfe of Wolfe Ridge Manufacturing to use in the first run of the B.M.E - Biggest Machine Ever! This log splitter is the biggest Wolfe Ridge has ever built. Wolfe Ridge offers a complete line of the best, and now the biggest, log splitters out there. For more info visit wolferidgemfg.com
Thank you Chris and everyone at Wolfe Ridge for allowing me the opportunity to be a part of this, It was AWESOME seeing this machine in action - for the FIRST time! And Thank You to all the members of the Back 40 Firewood Community for going along with me!

Chris Victor here from royal Fw, ( email) this is what I need, all my rounds are this big but harder wood, don’t mind paying extra, just want the strongest and also quick cycle time if possible

@WolfeRidgeSplitters 3 жыл бұрын

@@VmedranoMr We can get this down to 7 or 8 seconds on the cycle time with the Kubota Diesel engine and 42 gpm pump, that is as good as it will get. Fast cycle time usually means that it doesn't have power... The only way to get both speed and power is to strap on bigger HP and pump.

I had looked at there set ups there not bad it was a toss up between them Eastonmade and power split and I'd have to say I live the powersplit buggy it's very mobil self propelled. I purchased the 1 without conveyor since I have wood all over the place but if I was to buy another splitter I'd spend the money on the Eastonmade 18-22 or the 22-28 I believe that's what the numbers are but I would get it with the box wedge especially if you are doing bundled firewood if you want to talk more about the powersplit feel free to pm me
