Post pictures of your woodpile/splitting area

OMG! I got to get that splitter! Of course, I'd probably be dead before the pay-back period.(lol). I was just wanting a roller conveyor so as a split came off the splitter, I would just push it down the track and drop it into the trailer.
I missed two 10' tracks on local CL last week. $100 ea OBO. One I was going to cut in half for infeed/outfeed to my woodworking band saw. Was only up two days before I saw it. I contacted the guy right away but they were sold. Guy took $35 ea. Damn!

it's a treat when they want me to split a pine, especially Cedar!

Cedar often pops open with the first angle of the splitter.

A decent start to this pile with the 261 & 576

Next time out I'll take the 661C w/28 or 32 for the bigger wood

Where on earth do you run across that much firewood? And is that 2nd pic all Cherry?

Ash, pin oak, cherry, even some black walnut under the piles
I know a guy....lol

It's coming from a tree service. There are piles of logs all over the lot waiting to either be processed into firewood or milled.

I use to get 4" - 18" stuff from my tree guy, which was perfect, but now he chips that all up. Most of the big stuff he's keeping for himself.

Been working on some more racks to stack the "overflow" wood. I can stack about the same amount under cover by the house that's already stacked in the pics. Got another load of logs coming sometime soon to get a few more tanks through the new 562xp. So far I love it.

I think that this is a clever use of the hydraulic power of a splitter without the complication of adding a powered conveyor. I cannot see why you could not use the ram to push to an even greater height with a little ingenuity.

What brand name splitter is that?

I now want to flip my splitter upside down…especially for those big rounds

661C w/ 25 & RS

Once all the small stuff is cut & split, I'll put on the 28. There is just too much wood backed up against it

Working on '23-'24 wood pile. Mostly ash with a little beech mixed in for fun. The 3 stacks from left to right are 20" splits, 7' long and 8' high. There will be 4 stacks that run front to back that will be about 10' long and 6' tall at the front and 8' high against the other stacks.

Well damn I need to get more pallets . Used over 25 on the new stacks these should last a while all pressure treated and has 5/4 decking boards . Still have 5 cord sitting on old ones but as soon as I step on the slats they break . Found some cherry and HVBW at the bottom of one the rounds piles . So far I have a little bit over 21 cord stacked . And I estimate 10 in rounds and logs . I need to get it bucked split and stacked . Promised the wife I wouldn’t get more till I had the area cleaned up. And a buddy called last night seems his sister had 3 white oaks come down the other night and needs a ton of ash taken down .
Nice thing is I leave some split wood for her and her boys clean up the brush
