    Hi we have a Rytec 22ton 1.75 metre splitter for splitting back large timber to processor size ,i also have a chain saw and old homemade splitter running off a old dumper engine (very quick cycletime ). If you are working on your own then the saw and splitter are by far the quickest method of reducing timber to logs because using the large splitter on your own you have to keep getting off the tractor to operate the splitter and there is more handling off th timber using the large splitter.

    Hi I think this is a common problem with the j.d tractor caused by the internal brake disc wearing. Are nabour has had the same problem with 2 of his tractors , he has sold them as it was the cheapest option as to do the job the cab has to be removed so that you can take the trumpets off the tractor (the part that the weal bolts to ) so that you can then get to the brake disc. cheers chris

What quanties do you sell yuor logs in as the truck in the video looked to be loaded with two different amounts. cheers chris

    Hi Jim we had the same happen in are yard in 2012 . we managed to move the livestock but 2 tractors,firewood processor and landrover in 5 foot of water ,workshop had the same .worked 48 hours non stop to drain all oil /water from machines refill with oils run to temperature and drain and refill again. then carried out cleaning tools and all workshop equipment and drying stuff with hair drier and worksop heaters. All you can do is try and salvage all you can . we have had to replace loads of bearing and braking system on land rover s the main problem is getting the silt out from everywere. hope all goes well. cheers chris
