Fast log splitter

[Gav Green Man]

In the market for a new splitter, dont quite do enough to warrant a processor, plus the 6k or less machines seem slow and flimsy,also I have a reasonable amount of large timber which would be too big for a processor. 

I have always prodded on with my Wallenstien but now it's old and needing replaced so I'm wanting something similar but better.

Anyone know of any splitter with a fast cycle, as the return on most is painfully slow, I'd rather not go kinetic for longevity. 

The Eastern made spliters look good if a bit pricey, but cant find any in the uk.

 

Thanks.

I have a Posch SpaltAxt table type where the ram pulls down, the return is really quick and most importantly it returns when you let go so you are dealing with logs. Never have to wait for return.

|f you've got much to do you might be better looking at diesel than petrol, whether that's it's own engine or running off a tractor pto.

Speak to Ian at Logs and Saws about Eastonmade splitters in the UK . Not met him yet but he's hopefully bringing the Axis splitter up to have a look at. Good luck.

Think you are onto something there Stubby.  Start a training camp for Olympic athletes.

Big pile of logs and  2 week intense course for muscle build up, ideal for javelin, discus, weight lifting.  I would choose the X27.  You could charge for the training!

I would stick with the 22 and cater for the female team
