Hello Keith. Really appreciate that and thanks for stopping by!

Can I ask a question? What is a cord of firewood there were you live at. It's is different here we're I live at. I just didn't understand what a cord of firewood mint.

@keithmoore3433 a cord is 128 cubic feet neatly stacked. It’s most commonly a 4’x8’x4’ stack. A “face cord” is 1/3 of that. Here is a video I made to answer some of those questions kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ZruFrMqqmdCngaM.htmlsi=simlFeTbygH3h7vC

Thanks!

Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment

Glad it was helpful. Appreciate you watching

Well I’m glad to hear that! I always say if a video helps one person, it’s worth the time to make it

There's a old furnace in Thahaus ny near newcomb

You got that right!

I just got it yesterday. It’s already on the fridge! Thanks so much for thinking of me 🦅

Thanks so much

Glad you enjoyed!

It’s a constant battle to keep it as squared away as possible

😂🤣😂🤣 You Husky guys Stihl get jealous watching those things eat the wood 😂🤣😂🤣

@@FirewoodattheFurnace 🤣🤣🤣

The crooked cuts have more to do with the bar. #Stihl4Life

@JoesFirewoodVideos Yep, You are right! It is the poor design of Stihl handlebars that causes most to start their cuts crooked. 👍

I think you will like it

Sure does. That’s why I rarely use the 4 way

I noticed that too buddy! You gonna make it to Ohio this year?

@@FirewoodattheFurnace I am going to put in for time off as soon as I hear of the exact dates of the Second Annual meeting of the WoodHounds of America.

@benscoles5085 it’s October 6-8

Totally agree!

Very true!

Glad it was helpful!

Glad it helped and congrats on your new machine!

Thanks 👍

Totally agree

Thanks Craig

You are welcome!

Glad to hear this. I think you would really like it

Thanks for watching. That was a one time pay rate 😂🤣

Thanks buddy. Sent you a text

Awesome!

Absolutely I will do that. The reason I do it is if the rounds are wider than the wedge, you’ll get pieces that need resplit off the ends when you get to the middle of the round. If you take a couple pushes off the bottom and narrow it up, you can then turn in 90 degrees and push the rest through without needing to resplit anything

Definitely a cheaper way to go. Legal in Maryland as long as you have one trailer registered in your home state for every power unit you have

I think it’s just markings on the steel from the steel manufacturer. I just got the lucky part where it was marked

This load went to a green wood customer who orders a year ahead. The wood that I stack and season is all separated by species. However bulk loads are normally mixed. All hardwoods

I feel like the 12-22 does everything that I need it to do. If I were to upgrade, I would go to something like the 37D. Faster and more powerful but how fast do you really need to go? Working by myself most of the time, the 12-22 keeps up with me just fine. A great machine.

I really don’t think it makes a difference. Your still splitting the wood 7 different ways no matter how large the splits are. Knotty wood is not a friend of the box wedge

Yes, I have tried a little bit of everything through it. The box wedge likes good wood. You get out of it what you put into it. Ugly wood makes ugly splits. The machine will push it but you get alot of scrap. For the gnarly stuff, I normally switch the box wedge out for the 4 way.

Thanks! I went over and subbed to your channel earlier today!

I split SO much in the past 3 days. I still LOVE this video, learned so much about uneven wood, and best way to split it on the boxwedge. I also loved your gage on where to align height of wood. I also use spray on grease, as there is no way i can use the grease fitting on my 22/28. I cant get my hand and grease gun under the ram to grease it. If I had to change anything on my splitter, here's some things I would change. 1) never would have gotten the dual lift. The wheels are to far back, and creates a HUGE amount of tongue weight, and I'm mainly using boxwedge, so dual lift is useless in this configuration. My error when purchasing. 2) My metal pan Grate, I ordered my Eastonmade splitter with a log 36" long pan, as I have no conveyor. The longer pan works great. Now, that being said, yes, the boxwedge creates an unheard of amount waste, as any boxwedge will do, but I still love it, and use it 95% of time when splitting. Using this boxwedge creates all my waste mixing in with my firewood, as I let the splitter keep pushing all the split wood along the pan, and actually will push the stacked pile of firewood. I had a long stroke 36" Timberwolf before the Easton made. The one thing I LOVED about the Timberwolf is that it had tubular bars as a grate, instead of a flat pan. This allowed almost all the waste to fall thru the tubular grate, and not mix in with the split firewood. I would keep the underneath of the grates cleared out. I'm looking into a way to cut slots, or make a new grate with slots so that the boxwedge waste can fall thru. I absolutely LOVE your channel, keep the vids coming! Tube grates- waste falls thru. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/l6-JgKhjnJy9nHk.html @@FirewoodattheFurnace

Lol I couldn’t maintain that rate for long

You have to adjust the lift cylinder to the point that it engages the wedge. It is meant to disengage for wedge changes.

@@FirewoodattheFurnace yes you are correct. but what i'm am trying to say is that even at the lowest possible position to keep 7 way engaged , my splits are still 5 inches square, when i would like to have most splits 3 to 3 1/2 like advertised by Andrew. any lower and the entire machine jams and takes alot of time to get it unstuck

No place on mine for an umbrella, but I have a plan coming soon to cure that problem 😉
