Speeco 27t for $1250

Yeah, that's why I own 13 chainsaws, lol............buy it once, then once more, and again................ I think it will fill the get me by nitch nicely and the fourwheeler nitch longterm. I can now afford to wait as long as I need to find that good deal on bigger and better. It's for sale if you want it, $1300 even, lol.

I hear you on the saws, I have my share as well. The damn bastards multiply like rabbits! OTOH, I don't need or want multiple splitters, but that's just me.

BTW, I'll have to pass on your offer (although $1300 sounds almost fair)... I have a Super Splitter so I'm all done messing with hydraulic splitters.

If you want to speed the process dramatically add a $100.00 four-way splitter to the wedge. This feature is meant to be added to the stationary wedge therefore, I would reconsider the Speeco.

I am not a huge fan of the 4-way. It's nice if you separate the pile of perfect diameter, straight grain wood that it will take. For the average pile of wood it's on and off and making many small crappy pieces. I get much better quality using a single blade as I can control the size of every piece and it splits better.

I have never used the Speeco splitters but looked at them a while back at our local tractor supply. I thought they looked pretty good for the money but was concerned about the wheels being so close to the work area when you are standing there trying to split. Apparently this is not a cause for concern as I haven"t heard anyone else mention it so far as being a problem.

I looked at it, then ran it, and it didn't bother me at all.

I'd have to agree with that.
