I don't know what you sell your wood for, but in this part of Canada, I pay $660 for two full cords of dried hard-wood delivered. So if you do a solid 8 hrs = 8 full cords = $2,640 worth of split wood a day. Then, if you deliver it, that is time taken away from production, so hopefully your customers are within a 30 minute drive. Say, 20 miles. You could do maybe 6 deliveries in a day = $3,960 /day. At 240 miles for 6 deliveries, and a 4 x 4 pick-up pulling a 2 cord self dumping trailer at maybe 10 mpg = 3/4 of a 139 liter tank = 27.5 gallons x $US$3.59/gal = about $100 in gas = 2 gallons for the splitter or US$110 for fuel = $3,960 - $110 x 2 times a week = $3,850 x 2 = $7,700 a week. Do that for 10 weeks a year and you 're good to go @ $77,000. If you are incorporated = 11% tax (in Canada). If sole proprietorship, hopefully you've got a bunch of write-offs and 20.5% Federal tax. Yeah, not bad money.

Great video new subscriber, question did you order your F-550 with the Fassi crane from a ford dealer or was it set up for something else? It’s a brilliant way to move firewood!

It could easily be made more efficient: add 4 or 5 finger blades to the conveyor belt side of the main blade, add wall to hinder wood from dropping down to the place you were standing when operating, make blade movement continuous, and concentrate to fill new logs to be splitted. Maybe need a pusher arm to push logs certain amount forward when the blade is in upper position.

Great to hear from you. All good here. Hope you're doing well. Day job keeps me pretty busy these days, just not much time left for making quality content. 20k is a pretty good price for a double/30'er if it's not too beat up. I'd say by yourself with the wood already bucked up you could get a full cord per hour. Good luck!

We don't turn much Pecan away. Even small 3-4" stuff. If we can process it, we will. It's the one wood that doesn't grow wild in our area, so it's mostly old farms, homesites, and orchards that our wood comes from. Thanks for watching!
