Watching the video I always wondered why they always cut their wood to 3-4 foot lengths, split and stack it then cut it shorter. Seems like a lot of extra handling.
They look like nice pieces of equipment though.
Thank you for that lead. I think I'd rather buy an old one and throw a motor on it than pay nearly $2.5k for a second hand one at auction.There's a few companies out there.

I have 2 pto powered ones, won't be hard to convert to hydraulic or self powered. 13 hp motor will run them.
Full container loads would be nice but it's quite tricky getting enough people together at the same time who have the money, without it becoming a major PITA.I guess I didn't type that very well. They own an auction company but they also sell equipment from a yard, they have over 500 tractors on site. I buy quite abit of stuff from them. They also sell those saws new, that was just a picture of a used one. They are Dealers for lots of equiment including Wallenstein. Prices here in Canadaaaaada are higher than the US so I would think you would be better to get one shipped from stateside. When you buy stuff do you consider getting a bunch of guys and buying a container load or do you just do single items? I had a buddy who used to buy container loads of used tractors from Holland, he reassembled them and sold them.
Thanks. I've actually used one of them and I agree with the term Widow Maker for the cone not to mention a slow way to split wood.Hakki Pilke builds one that is engine powered and also has a "splitting cone" aka widow maker on it.
USA dealer changes every other year or so it seems. Was Hud-Son a few years ago then some outfit in WI sold them under their own trade name that escapes me, might still be in business? Here is a web site from Europe that will at least allow you to look at one. I just run the old belt drive saw with an old Lister slowspeed diesel myself.
