No I don't .When I was there I thought they liked boys off the farm in Ohio .Musta been wrong .:(

It normally gets colder in Mass than it does here .--but on occasions the mercury can take a drop .Lowest I 've ever seen was 31 below.I was out in it too .Normally maybe a week of 10 below is about it though .Usually Jan. hangs at zero 10-15 above towards the end of the month .

I think maybe 22 is the lowest so far .I did have a tee shirt--plus a quilted flannel --plus a hooded Carhart coat. I do have the fire cooking in the stove as I type .

Oh sure you can do that in parts of California ,Florida .It takes a tad more than than a tee in Mass.,Ohio ,Idaho or BC though .

I don't have a clue who made that . There is so much stuff at that place I can't tell one from another .A lot of it was set up for high production stuff and carried a pretty hefty price tag .Like a wood processer at 80 grand .:O First of all you would have to have an unlimited supply of wood...

I think it's because of that valley area in Cal .Smog like stuff ,air pollution .

I have somewhat of an abstract mind and look at things differently than a lot of folks .With that in mind a thought occured to me today . It realistically takes me about 3 hours to do a cord the time it takes to cut it from a pile ,split and stack it etc .Most likely add about another hour the...

On those lesser powered splitters you can get by using a knige edge cutter instead of a wedge type .They actually do pretty good .You just have to run the stroke more because of no wedging action which isn't that big of a deal . One problem ,if there is one ,with those non tiltable splitters...

Oh the same with some of those processers or set up for selling bundled wood at gas stations . I've seen processers they have listed for over 80 grand . You would be at it night and day to pay for the thing . Most tree service people that sell the stuff simpley do so as a supplement to their...

Coincidently I just trotted in from the woods from splitting .Taking a little pause for the cause . That heavy duty Judy I threw together works as well as any splitter I've ever seen .If I were to make another one though I would use a tad smaller beam . That 10" H piling beam weighs a flippen...

That flywheel spitter is called a "super split " .It uses the kinetic energy in the flywheel in conjuction with a gear rack I think . I've seen the videos of them and they scare me to death .That thing could take an arm off at the elbow in less time than it took me to type this . About those...

Well,after a few design changes I finally got the thing done at last . I think I've only got the engine maybe running 2400 RPMs or so but with the 16 gal per minute pump it seems as fast as most splitters using a 4 inch cylinder .Mine is 5 inch . It did pretty gone splitting some plump oak .Of...

Ah,not so fast,I still have "Excalber" my old 5 pound splitting axe .:/:

Not really V ,just a flatland hillbilly with a vivid imagination .;)

In my lifetime I must have seen fourty eleven splitters .Some were rather innovative and some were just junkyard specials . One of them used a long double ended cylinder which carried double end wedge mounted to the cylinder which moved ,the rods were stationary and it would split both...

Ha,I'm not going to market the thing, nobody could afford it .:)

I must two five gallon buckets full of various type couplings .Lovejoys ,Falks ,Moreflex ,double chain and some really odd ones .That comes from a life time of dumpster diving ,auctions and horse trading . These Falks are used in most industrial applications in these parts . They can take a...

:) --not on this site .

That is a Falk grid coupling .

If this works I think I may have figured out how to get some pics up ,using my other 'puter because my usual one is giving me trouble I've been fiddling with this danged splitter for a month or so and just about have it done . 11 Hp Briggs engine ,double Parker pump ,5" Parker super duty...
