I'll have to get the pen and paper out later to do the same sums! (but approx half that for me, £500 to £600)

It would be interesting to see. It's the solid walls and uninsulated solid floors that lose my heat.

We split a lot of logs in a year (but not compared to some on here). We’ve got big tractor powered stuff obviously, but we have a Handy 8ton electric hydraulic splitter that we keep in the bagging up shed for any odd logs that have come off the processor too big.

It’s a fantastic piece of kit for what it does, it’s bang on your budget (about £600 from memory) and it’s powerful enough to split almost anything. Yes it’s quite slow compared to commercial machines, but I bet it would do a metre cube in an hour, which is pretty good going really, and anybody can use it with no risk to fingers.

you can set the height and it auto-returns and it’s a comfortable waist height for working. Honestly - definitely worth you looking at.
