New log splitter

[MattyB070]

Hi guys I'm looking to get a new log splitter I mostly do rings nowerdays I like the look of the porsch splitmaster 9 but I'm not sure that 9 ton will be enough to split rings 6 ways a 20 ton would be to big I only need a short stroke of ram also prefer if it had a petrol engine rather than be pto of hydraulics. Anyways does anyone have any recommendations?

Check out the riko boys, they advertise on here, if your anywhere near Bedfordshire you can see mine.

Thanks already got a vertical riko it was awesome when I had some big stuff to split but now it's all rings i have looked at there other ones but like to assess any others that I might not know about . Ring sizes would range really from 9 inch to 3 ft and 9-12" thick

A small horizontal will be tricky to operate on 100cm diameter rings. Vertical with waist high table ideal. With a 4 way slide-on head for smaller stuff. Also much easier to centre rings on a vertical setup, and more forgiving on wobbly bendy pieces.

A road tow Thor/posch vertical would be ideal, but big dosh - but alternatively you could opt for a power pack generator and an agri spec splitter.
