Great video neil. Really appreciate the support

I wouldn't be standing here all hunched over if we had this 40 years ago!! funny stuff

SO happy for you and your family. Your Dad's reaction and excitement is priceless! Congratulations

Everyone I’ve seen on KZfaq that has these loves them. Congrats Neil!

Your dad looks like an amazing guy.

I am 75 and I still like cutting and splitting firewood for our home. That is a nice machine!

The smile on your face says it all. The fact that your Dad is there and the family is watching from the yard is great. Your home always looks well maintained and pristine. My Mom wanted a wood burning fireplace in the house we built here in 1966. Dad said he had cut and split enough wood as a kid that wasn't having one. There was a free standing gas log fireplace.

So, nearly a quarter million people have seen this video so far. Wembley stadium seats about 90K people. Don't know what it costs Eastonmade to send you a loaner machine for a couple of days, but I'm pretty sure it's less than they'd spend on a national TV ad, and they know that this channel has people who are interested in splitting wood. This is the future of advertising.

Love seeing the old timers inspect the thing like it's a spaceship, great stuff!!

I'm just getting started with a wood stove, cleaning up around the farm site and splitting with a splitting axe. It started out fun, but I didn't think I'd be burning as much as I am; it's just satisfying to light that fire! Anyway, the manual splitting work has made me realize just how necessary a good hydraulic splitter will be. Thanks for the background and for sharing your insights!

What a wonderful family. Your smile says it all I can see all the hard work has paid off. A beautiful peice of property. I wouldn't know what to do if I wasn't bending over and in pain. 🤣🙃

These guys are my kind of people reminds me of how this were between my dad and me years ago he’s been gone for 18 years now and still think about him every day take care

Congrats on such a great family. The wood splitter ain't bad either.

i recently bought a brand new branch chopper called " Rebak Niebieski W102" Made in Poland - powered by PTO of my 30hp 1973 Ursus C330 Tractor . This machine is superb - it is New (cost about 1100 US $) and can chop a dry hard wood like oak to 9cm diameter or 12cm (5inch ) wet wood branches like pine. It really save my precious time

Love that splitter and you are so right, cutting your own wood for heat is so satisfying. I heated our large house on 5 acres of woods for 33 years, using just a maul. Nothing like it!

That’s awesome. Love that you are able to work with your dad. Blessing to your family

Smart move by Eastonmade. So happy for you. Best channel on KZfaq.

Congrats on getting a fine machine! We enjoy your channel so much and I am smiling right along with you. Could not be happier for you. Andrew is one heck of a guy, and it goes to show that there are a lot of great people in this world. Miracles do happen, God bless.

seeing the smile on your Dad's face is awesome. Thanks for sharing.

Congratulations Neil, you and your dad certainly deserve the Axis. Andrew Easton has another great ambassador for his product line. A true “win-win” for all involved. Take care

So lucky to have your dad and a lovely family. Just started watching your videos, really enjoying them.

That’s sweet Neil! Thanks to Andrew for sending these out to folks in need!

Congratulations! Andrew seems like a cool guy and builds some great machines! Looking forward to seeing it in action. 👊🏼

Love "Dad's" reaction and Approval. My Dad would approve also I'm sure. We did a LOT of lifting to the splitter over about 30 years of heating with wood.

I enjoy the love that you put into this video. Great job. You have a great voice filled with integrity.

Having used a variety of splitters for the last 35 yrs having a log lifter is the best addition possible. Great looking machine! Enjoy it.

EastonMade is a class act company . Their business model is second to none .

I love my Eastonmade 12-22. They make fantastic splitting equipment and Andrew and the folks at Eastonmade are great to work with. Shalom/gw

What an awesome splitter Neil! I'm so glad you got one. I've been pondering the idea of potentially getting something a little more stationary myself. My skidsteer splitter us great but it tears up the wood yard however I don't have to touch the wood once I cut it. That's the best part. Great video can't wait for the next one

Great splitter. I like the fact your dad is excited about it. Congratulations. Thanks for the good videos.

I’ve seen their splitters before and really like the design. Not having to bend over or lift the rounds manually is great. Good luck with it. Great video and enjoy your personality.

That is an awesome machine the speed of the cylinder and the way it lifts them up amazing.

What an awesome machine. Anyone who has ever ran a wood splitter can recognize the advantages. Can’t wait to see more. Also can’t wait to show my Dad that thing. He’s going to be impressed too.

So awesome to be able to see memories of my youth splitting firewood in your video Neil! Thanks again for reaching out to us. Keep up the great videos!

I think Eastonmade has the best splitters on the market, by far. And this model is just perfect for your needs!

I have a ‘Redgum’ splitter here in Australia. Unstoppable. I really like the way your father enjoyed this bit of kit.

Thanks for another great video Neil splitter looks awesome looking forward to next weeks video

Wow! Great for you, Neil! Enjoy and have fun.

You Sir are so very very blessed to be working with your father ❤ Just don’t get any better 😊

Very nice! I had the same Huskee splitter for 13 years. That machine would split absolutely everything I could throw at it, but when I was done with last season's wood, I retired it and sold it in lieu of a 12-22. I was really leaning towards an Axis, but I had the limitation of not having a building with a tall enough door to accommodate the height of the cylinder. My logs are coming this week, so soon I'll be firing mine up to break her in! Eastonmade makes a top notch product, and we're lucky to have a company like them around. Get yourself a pickaroon for moving those rounds over to the splitter. What a difference that makes on your back! Congratulations on your new machine and I look forward to seeing more of it!

Glad to see you have your dad around to help . Thx for the vid. - Ken

Fantastic machine! Really enjoyed watching you and your Dad work the splitter together!

I love the work height of the axis and they are quick. Your dad's reaction was great!

Thanks mate it looks like an excellent machine (the back saving being an added bonus).

.... had to " chuckle " ( at myself ) when you were reminded about your eyewear safety. Seems there was a time I was guilty of forgetfulness, only to be reminded by my kids to do the very same things I preached to them about working smart and safe.

Impressive machine, I know what your dad means 50 years ago would have been great. My dad burned wood for most of 50 years, I helped him out often. We would go up to the mountains here in Colorado and cut wood for 3 to 4 days. Stacking it up behind his house to dry for over a year before spitting it. I like the splitting machine, I just wish it leaned back a bit and the wedge was a plus. I can also see where it should be moved back, so it can not hit the plate on the back of the wedge.

Awesome video! I feel my dad would appreciate it just as much! I hope to split my dads wood along with mine when I am all setup like this! Thank you!

This is awesome news Neil! Congratulations on this partnership. I don't know what I liked more, your excitement about the news or the smile on your dad's face. Both are priceless. I enjoy your channel so much.

Congratulations!! Those are nice splitters & you will enjoy it. Looking forward to more videos.

I found your channel when you did the week long coordinated splitting-transport-stacking operation. What a show. The behind the scenes planning and organizing had to be enormous. This is only my second of your videos and I just subscribed as this machine could fit in my life style as I have arthritis and have to work smarter-not harder. Looking forward to more of this❤️

Great job Neill nothing like making honest days of living... you have great Dad and family...Merry Christmas ⛄🎄🎄 winter is coming up...

Great Family Channel ! Always like the way you explain everything in great detail ! It’s really great you got to demonstrate one and I like that one especially for big wood and the cycle time is fantastic .

Congratulations Neil! (And thanks Andrew!) Keep telling and showing these great stories and that new JD Backhoe you like won't be far behind!😁👨‍🚒

Holy Snikey!!!! I love your Dad's response and his enthusiasm. That is a really nice wood splitter. Congratulations Neil, you deserve it.

Hey Neil! Great machine. You’ll love it! We’ve had ours about 9 months now. I’ve been able to produce sooo much more firewood compared to a box store splitter. I’ve already produced enough for the 2022-2023 winter (about 10 full cords) and have been selling some too! It’s a blast! Congratulations and enjoy!

Great video I know your dad liked it wish I had it when I was cutting wood back in the day I do like your Dads ford tractor we had 2 of those when we were growing up.

YAY!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!! 🥳🥳🎉🎉🎊🎊 I'm so happy for you and your dad! NO MORE RENTALS!!! WOO HOO!!!!! Fantastic video! More log splitting. #splittingwoodathome #NOMORERENTALS LOL

Love the video , love my eastonmade , I got into splitting and burning wood because of my dad as well , now at 40 years old and my dad in his 60 s we are doing 100 cord a year thanks to eastonmade!

I rented a splitter last week and the wedge stopped 3 inches before it got thru the round. I was splitting hard maple and I had to pull it apart the rest of the way. I’m convinced those eastonmades are the best of the best. Firewood is somewhat of a novelty in Alabama. Not many people burn it in the house anymore and there are very few people with outdoor boilers.

Im up in years ,Dad is right we may not been limping as hard if we had more modern machinery, but built that from a scrap machine and got stuff done, i admire him and please wish him my best, from sunny warm Canada 😂

Wonderful video. Love your Dad, reminds me of my father. We worked together for over 40 years; he was always surprised and elated when I brought a new tool home. We built houses. The whole house from start to finish, we had allot of tools and whenever i brought something home that would save labor or our backs he was deleted. Oh I didn't tell you , he was very cheap. So when I brought it home and spent my own money he was happy. I long for those days now. Enjoy your dad and the spitter. The memories are worth more than you can imagine. God Bless you Both!

Neil, I've said it on GP Outdoors, but I feel that this is the finest splitter made for the small firewood producer like yourself. I did the same thing for many years and still do but in smaller amounts, you know the odometer thing. Great video.

Morning neil i have one word its a beast of a machine like knife through butter any size it will go through it what a buy well done neil

Very cool Neil, looks like an awesome machine. Good for you

I would really like to say thank you so so so much for this video. It reminds me of when our family used to get together and do the same task. Also seeing you and your dad working together just brings back some amazing memories of my late grandfather. Thank you so much. Your irish fan. Gerard Keohane

Very cool. I loved the cheering section.

My dad lives in north Wisconsin, I was up there 3 weeks ago, helping him get ready for winter. We split up about 3.5 cords of wood with a rental splitter. I thought that one was good, I wish we could have found that one to rent, my back probably would not have been so soar! Thanks for the video. Y’all remind me of my dad and I.

Niel Christmas came early this year for you. You’re gonna love the versatility and speed of the Axis. Though I had the Eastonmade 12-22, as soon as the Axis was introduced I sold my 12-22 and bought the Axis. It is absolutely a joy to use, being 6’3” no more sore back after splitting and I can split much longer. To reach its full potential you really need 2 to 3 people and you can kill a load of wood fast. Be safe and enjoy the Axis! Tony

Awesome. Congratulations!

I bought a 5-11 from Andrew back when he was still working out of his garage. Its still working great. Quality product from a quality company and person. Good luck.

very happy for you, you will love it.bin seeing for a while on gp outdoors channel.i have a very old one that works like that it slow but on great on the back.it has a conveyer belt that really helps.we use three people because it has two rams one person just keeps the table full and the spot on the right side of your splitter we have log there so to keep the cut man going.

Work very nice like you said it you don’t have to pick up the heavy wood very easy to turn and split it twice very nice very nice God bless

Great video! It brought back some very nice memories of my late Dad and I working together on different projects. I miss him.

You did a great job promoting the spliter and I know there will be many more videos of it to come.

Great firewood videos! 👍👍 My job and location no longer have me processing firewood. I had a system that worked for me back where I used to live. I had a wood shed attached to the house that held 5 cords, which was one year's worth. Both wood stoves had pass-through wood boxes close to that shed. Each of those pass-throughs held enough wood for two days, and each had a small box on top of them accessed only from outside with enough wood for two more days. At the mid point of my yard, I had a walk through cordwood shed that held 5 cords on each side of the aisle. Behind that, I had log racks that held enough logs, cut into 8 foot lengths, to make 10 more cords of firewood. By the log racks, I had my own x-frame log horses that would hold one log and had preset spots to use a chainsaw to cut the logs into rounds. The rounds were hand loaded onto a 16-ton splitter with a four-way head. I used canvas tarps to be able to collect the sawdust, which I sold, and was able to cover my bar-oil costs. So my heating costs were the gas for the saw and splitter, the gas for my truck to go out in the woods to where I was legally allowed to cut wood, and of course my own labour. I always had five years of wood on hand at the start of any winter. There's a great satisfaction to being self-sufficient and cutting your own wood.

Really enjoyed seeing your dad’s reaction to the machine, and his reaction to how you got it. See you next time!

Nice machine. 👍🏼 I’m glad you are getting these opportunities through your channel. With the work you put in you deserve it. Kudos

Your back will thank you!! Great video as always.

That thing is awesome!

Andrew is a great guy and if I hadn't already bought the 12-22 from eastonmade I would have bought buying the axis

This is awesome Neil! Your Dad’s reaction made me tear up some, so glad you videoed that part. That splitter will really help out. Dad and myself acquired a bunch of free coal to burn. We hauled right at 100 tons in on Saturday, probably 70 tons is usable. The rest was kinda dirty. Looking forward to more on the splitter. Take care buddy!

That is extremely beautiful machine Love it 😍 They are the leaders in top equipment that will last several lifetime

8 minutes of watching de video and went to write this comment, the other video with the big splitter and the big bunch working on it ands then whatching this Axys splitter...wow so satisfying!! but the best was your dad faces when he saw the machine hahahaha Yesssssssssss!!!!!!!!!! Eastonmade Thanks for supporting Neil!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice bit if kit Neil. I will be watching this with interest.

I bought my son a DR inertial log splitter and he loves how fast the machine splits logs.

that thing is awesome I was going g to recommend a " chomper" firewood processor look them up on youtube they are kind of rare and don't make them anymore but they are fairly common in New England.it uses a shear instead of a bar and chain so it really excells in dirty wood and they have some that were automated so once you get it started you walk away and it does the rest

Fantastic Neil we loved the video. Thanks so much for adding the pics! Glad you get to check out the Easton made. I've been eying them. I watch Andrew's videos. :)

I’ve owned an 036 since the 90’s. Good machine.

Happy for ya hope ya enjoy it

That's nice, no bending over , no logs falling over on your toes after they split. Wish I would of seen this setup.before buying my new splitter, it works great but it's the regular style, it does flip up vertically or horizontally but it's too.low.

I've followed Andrew and his splitter business for some time. He's about as genuine and customer oriented as you will ever find. Good to see you found each other. You can't go wrong working with Eastonmade because the products are solid and Andrew will make sure you're happy. You are a lucky man to have your Dad right by your side to share the new splitter! Made me smile.

My favorite part was watching Dad and you working together, made me weepy.

Congratulations Neil ,I've seen several of those spelters on KZfaq never heard of any complaints, good luck with it.

This is freakin awesome put a tear in my eye. We wanna see more of pops dude - for sure...

great video and thanks to Eastonmade for the trial

Love the dad's reactions, firewood is still a family affair. Warm winter ahead. 🪵👍🚜🌴🍁🔥

The look on your dads face priceless

Awesome, TY Andrew !!!

That machine has got it together! Yeah!

great video and easton made products are awsome and sure looks like the product speaks fro itself
