It’s holding up great! We’ve had a lot going on this last year or two so I just haven’t kept up with KZfaq at all. Sometimes I post on the firewood sites on Facebook so I’ll try to get some updated videos of it running there soon. The processor still runs great and breezes through logs in a hurry!

To bad they don't in house finance I would purchase one with everything I have over 2500 facecord in the books that need to be done before next December and call,s come in every day for orders. Iv had to stop taken firewood orders because me and my 4 workers just can't keep up. I turned down 314 facecord orders just last week. I would give 200k if they finance, Ed in house. Glad to see someone that is able to obtain one. I would love to see more videos if you ever have time to film. Have a wonderful week sir.

The processing building is behind the big wood storage building, is that correct? How do you get all of that wood from one building to the other building? It looks like you sell some of the wood as packaged in crates, but the majority goes has bulk. What is the reason for the government restriction on the schedule of your activity on the property (if you know)? Perhaps the wood drops in a pile and is pushed all the way through the storage building to the front.

@@eliteoutdoors2748 yeah your setup looks pretty slick. It’s about the only way you can get good consistent splits in a wedge like this. A grid style wedge may help but not sure EM will be able to fit that style in this splitting chamber. Along with any of these multi wedges is trash. Some like it some don’t. I just remembered when you had to push the stuck piece clear, I asked EM if they would consider putting remote controls by the splitting cylinder. 1) it would help in situations like this…no need to jump in and out of cab or get another person and 2) with the trap door what’s not to say you can’t use the splitting chamber like a normal horizontal splitter?…drop trap door, toss in a chunk, hit remote splitter control…done.

First off if you're running a 100k processor you obviously have an endless log source so there is no need to struggle with the random large log. You should be picking through loading the correct logs to keep the processor rolling. Lastly if you're going to use your entire crew to resplit what comes from the processor then start with the 4 way and have your crew resplit those with a 6 way. Just doing that will cut your work load in half as your guys are only picking up 4 pieces instead of 8. Personally I'd stack them logs off to the side and resell them when I get a load ready.
@eliteoutdoors27482 жыл бұрын
I know we don’t have to struggle with these. I just took this video in an effort to help others. I’m always getting asked how it handles large diameter. We are still just testing the machine. Production is not what I’m focused on at this time. I’ll post another video once we have the buildings, concrete, and full operation setup. The firewood will never touch the ground and rarely be touched by hand. Should be very efficient

@@eliteoutdoors2748 Oh I see, you're just fooling about with it. It's not to often you see someone invest 200K into a set up like this and they just play around with it.

@@Tonnsfabrication Appreciate it! oh we take the firewood business very seriously. We work hard and sell a lot of firewood, but we do have other businesses and do not want to be forced to cut firewood everyday. That is why we invest. When you can produce 25-30 cords in 1 day you don’t have to cut firewood as many days. These machines free up lots of time for other things.

Pushing knotty, gnarly wood through a 16way wedge is not easy. Not sure if there’s a processor on the market that’s capable of that. You can find plenty of 16way videos but they are running perfectly straight saw logs. Not sure why everyone tries to hide the true limits of these machines

I agree, if you're going to have resplit big rounds even going with a 12 way wedge, using a 8 way wedge may make it overall easier on the processor. I suspect that going with a 16 or 20 way wedge, may make the problem worse with the big diameter rounds.
@eliteoutdoors27482 жыл бұрын
Exactly right. I do appreciate that eastonmade takes the time to engineer a machine that will not just tear itself apart. I would trade having to dislodge a log occasionally over bending a wedge. I would imagine with a 7” splitter cylinder this would have caused permanent damage to the machine
@jsanchez38182 жыл бұрын
Can we get another video of you running max diameter wood. Im in the market for a wood processor. Im currently leaning to a cord king. But the price point on this machine will definitely make you think about not spending more than you have to, if it can produce & works the equivalent as a cord king.
@eliteoutdoors27482 жыл бұрын
You messaged at a great time. We will be running tomorrow and I’ll put some large diameter on it and take a video. I’ll let you know when I post it. I’ve never run a cord king but I don’t think it’s built quite as heavy as the eastonmade. They do run higher tonnage on the splitting ram. Could have more potential for bending/breaking if the rest of the machine isn’t built to withstand it. I would highly recommend seeing several machines in person before buying if at all possible
