Wood Splitter Picture Thread

[LouB]

I haven't figured our how to insert a photo into a message yet (computer challenged type).

The splitter is an Iron and Oak 30 ton. One of their commerial models with a log lift and adjustable 4-way splitter wedge. It certainly make splitting large wood rounds a heck of a lot easier than before. I'm limited by by ability to stack the split wood since this critter is very fast.

Thanks, I appreciate that. I do not regret building it as it makes everything SO much easier now. I know this will extend my years of wood heating as it is now possible to do the big un's by yourself if need be.

Here is mine. My dad bought this back in the mid 70's to split wood to heat our house. He also sold firewood. I now use it to split and sell wood. I am not sure how many cords this thing has split but it is a lot. Had to make a few modifications over the years to get different engines to fit, Briggs, Techumseh. Should have just put the Honda on years ago. Not the fastest but I have not found a piece of wood I could not get through.

We use one like that (the lift, not the cup holder). Ours is 2x6's. Some of the rounds are REALLY heavy.

Downhill like crazy...uphill not so much, especially if they're not real round.
