Our vertical splitter

Nice looking machine, looks a bit like a krpan. you got a 4 way for it? How long to split a cage with those sized logs? One handed optional operation as well, no messing around. Any vids mate?

 

With small stuff like that 30 mins max, i had lad who works for me splitting & me loading logs moving cages and we did 25 in 7 hours no dicking about though.

No just 1 way, its only 10 ton splitting force, it smashes logs no probs, theres a few knotty ones that you have to get on the edge of the blade but it still fires through them, its actually 2 handed operation, theres not only me uses it so it has to stay like that way for fear of lads cutting digits off. You could rig it so its 1 handed though, it wasnt cheap but its paid for its self this winter already, really productive machine if your doing firewood as a side line to tree surgery.

Nice one. I get the old man to stack on a table beside me on the splitter when I'm blitzing some cages. Found the constant twisting, bending down, picking up blocks sore on the lower back after a session. Much better with two people alright.

Quicker innit...its boring as sin stuck on the splitter as its constant when there is 2 of you, most productive way we have found to do it though.

That looks interesting, it must be a professional machine as i has two blue flashing lights.
Could you do another short video about how you made it, and the components
