[MrTcrawshaw]

Nothing short of amazing.

[Lvl22nerd]

DO WANT!!!

[CastingStonez]

I 2nd that comment...THAT'S BADASS!!!

[kawasakikx250ff]

thats bad ass!!!

[StevesProjects]

Fantastic bit of homebuilt kit. Very fast splitting action, well done. Is there any photo's of the build to have a look at?

[superdutyman73]

This beats my ax anyday were can i get one

[AintBigAintClever]

That is an awesome bit of DIY!

[BigHeadFarm]

very nice machine

[nate1590]

This was when we first finishes it, so it was limited to one trunk that gets lifted up with a backhoe w/ a thumb. Now he has built a live deck for it, so you can load 4-5 logs that will get chain fed into the infeed. Once we fire the machine up again, I will be putting a more current video up

[thirteenfingers]

I love to see how far people will go to avoid swinging an axe.

I may be an axe-swinger myself but this is a fantastic bit of kit. Brilliant.

Am I right in thinking it's limited to a single trunk unless you have lifting gear or a few strong friends standing around? It looks like you'd have to lift it up to about 4 feet high to get onto the infeed.

[JonathanGuenther]

How much to build me one just like it? I'm a serious buyer!

[dave67891000]

Nice bit of kit you sure know your stuff!!!!

HOMEMADE MY ASS



[dh4life100]

to slow

[nate1590]

@ tdurre3 The main ram is a 5" bore.

[tdurre3]

What bore is the main ram?

[nate1590]

On this machine there are actually 3 single stage pumps, gear driven off the crank, separated by a clutch so you can disengage the pumps if you need to.  Each pump is the same, putting out 49 GPM at 1800 psi. We can run a little more psi, 2000 psi, but it has plenty of power at 1800 psi and it is easier on parts.

[tdurre3]

What kind of volume and pressure does the pump put out? Awesome build!!!

[theotherbigbrother]

AWSOMEEEEEEEEE

[jserra17]

No mistaking that Detroit Diesel - Loud.

[101spacecase]

now that's just lazy haha but nice

[nate1590]

The log in this video is oak that is still pretty green. I will make a better video showing its current form and all the functions when we start splitting in the next month or so.

[BassmanSW]

That splitter is awesome!

[hunterc05]

make a video with it doing some work

[blitzkrueg07]

wow great job.

[NavySturmGewehr]

Wet or dry wood?

[Neil1Blair]

Badass!!!

[MacGenius13]

Thats cheating...

[generationll]

Great machine

[pelonissafe]

great job, thats awesome

[jasondean250]

Nice..

[universal550]

NICE JOB! That's more useful the other machines which can you buy it..Really GREAT JOB!

[nate1590]

The wedge was 7 pieces of high carbon steel, with the edge machined sharp. The pieces were then fitted and mig welded together to make a one piece wedge. Thank you for all the comments!

[MPodgemurphY]

@nate1590 nice! a lot of tonnage needed. what force does your ram output??

[speshsx]

how did you make the 8 way wedge??? that looks incredible

[yankafat1]

That's thing is sick!!!

[cashpoulsen]

sick!



[chamness79]

what is the price tag on this machine..... I could stock pile some wood with that!!! Awesome!!!!

[chuckbyf1]

That looks like fun. Great back saver. Although with the energy used to power it you could heat a house for a week. Heheh.

[lj2729]

wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwooooooooooooooo­ooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwww­wwwwwwwwwwwwww that is COOL

[michaelfrench1]

I WONT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[DocTripp1977]

I have some trees in the back of my lot I need split up.. What does it take to build one of those??  Nice job!!

[gqwincy90]

is the saw blade hydraulic?

[TOMBSTONESTAN]

Wouldnt wanna fall into that splitter.Even my incredible bench press wouldnt save my ass lol. But wat a machine though, i could play with that all day. Well done!

[biguglygadgie]

what rpm does the saw work at



[loudpipesavelives69]

if this is homemade you are quite the craftsman bravo!

[3zib]

One word AWESOME!!

[kenfo0]

that bar has too much travel. Can increase output simply by regulating how far the bar retracts based on log in cradle.

[kenfo0]

i could chop faster with my hand.

[emigrantgap]

@kenfo0 no you could not. you are a troll. i read your comments on other videos and you are a weasel. i am giving you a thumbs down. please post a video of your wood processor. 

[kenfo0]

@emigrantgap LOL. If I am a troll, that makes you the dumbest son of a bitch on the planet for replying. Nah, you're just a stupid, whiny, effeminate, trolling canadian malcontent. I read your comments on other videos and you are a weasel....afraid of ladders? what a fag. I am giving you a thumbs down. please post a video of your wood processor.

[arnoldcustom]

why the log try so high up, i made one years ago put with a saw blade much faster

[acahouston]

Cool.... !!!!

[MONNIEHOLT]

best machine I've ever seen

[AirSoft4TheWin]

Now that is a great wedge design.

[BANGERS68]

yer baby this is the shit..awsome

[localcrew]

That's some pro-looking work you did on this machine, my friend. Great work.

[Harleyman440]

What an awsome machine

[nate1590]

the bar is a 35 inch bar made by oregon

[MrVikings78]

Cool machine. Is it a homemade saw bar or is it something somone sells ?

[TSDsam]

Amazing piece of machinery! Wish I had one of those!!

[ilovewatchingrawsd]

thats pretty impressive

[nate1590]

This took about a year of nights and weekends to build

[gonzalo060375]

@nate1590 I'm sure it was worth the effort.

Amazing.  Congrats!

[minkyblack]

that is way cool!

[respondtomehere]

Great job. Well done with the use of the Detroit, I need this. How long did it take you to build?
