Have you taken a look at a Split Right? They're just about as good as a machine can get, and they're an AS sponsor.

And your not going to be on your knees with a splitter that's 6" off the ground???
My dealer is route 96 power and paddle in candor new york USA
I am very happy with my TW-5 purchase and I am glad I bought a larger splitter with all the bells and whistles as my back is not getting any younger
www.powerand paddle.com
They open at 1 pm your time tomorrow morning.
If they are unable to help you I see no reason you cannot order directly from
Timberwolf office folks in Vermont. www.timberwolfcorp.com
money is money and a sale is a sale( sales taxes, import dutys, and shipping cost are all you have to worry about really as these splitters are basic simple machines with good parts and tooling that do nothing but work and work and work.
As far any shipping goes you may just want have them crate it up assembled and tested with gasoline drained and run out of the carburator to avoid any issues.
When I enquired to Wessex Machineries about the purchase of a motorised flail mower they said it would be about six weeks from the transfer of funds to them when I ordered it, no issues.
It would probably be much less expensive to have it shipped to london and then pick it up there.
One custome import export broker is www.nycb.com in Jamaica, New Nork and they can ship it for you easily
and the home page has an online contact form to ask questions of them.

Timberwolf Only Way To Go
This is the third year with our Timberwolf. We are the envy of the woods. I wouldn't buy anything without the hydraulic lift and table again. These options have saved many a back ache. I also have the four way wedge which does a good job. I can't say enough about our Timberwolf.

:agree2:
must need pictures my butt will be in a seat after rolling a lp tank size block on need a break try to get some pics will need some help posting them any volunteers? no huge rounds this year take some pics of the larger one.s no working on knees here
AOK,
You must have good knees. Around here the only rounds we get access to were too big to chip. I'm talking 36" and over and mostly over. I figure they weigh about 3-500lbs. I've split on everything from a verticle-horizontal to a maul to my own SuperSplit. At "work" I run a TW-6. To say its a "beast" is like saying Obama is "slightly leftist". There is no way I would pay for a splitter without a lift if I had any aspirations of volume production. There are some "changes" I would make to the TW just to make my own "style" better and nothing that a welder could not make "purrrrrfect".
For my own house I prefer the SS, but that is because I can pick the rounds before I get them home. When you have to split everything its tough to beat a TW.
angelo that is the size I was talking about . just saying there is a alternative that works never had a log lift so I can,t compare . just can,t see adding more weight a lot more money pretty sure a person with either set up could roll a big block on with same ease there is pro an con with both had a go with a vertical on snowy ground the block always fell out on the small plate working on my knees in the cold snow had enough oh that if you like verticals that is fine

A friend of mine is so envious with my TW that he is coming down to look at the log lift. He wants to try to retro-fit his old log splitter with a lift. I told him to just buy a TW because he wouldn't't be disappointed.

Sure is a beefie looking machine. Still I would not purchase a Splitter w/o a lift. another reason is that it doubles as a table and you can use it to load several smaller rounds up as you wait/work. We usually operate the TW-6 with 2 men as you need someone to feed the beast and someone to bring the rounds closer. A small tractor is perfect for this job as you can push some rounds up or load the bucket and drop. really AOKpops try one someday for a few hours and you'll see the difference. You are more then welcome to come out to the "country" and run ours in NJ.
It really is about getting the most out of your time and least out of your spine.
thanks Angelo for the offer I have look at the tw6 sure they are a great machine but they are in noway in my budget got a one person operation this works great for me need some lp tank size rounds to get some more pics just showing a different way to do the job on limited resources
