Looks like you’re at ease when you’re in the 🪵yard Andrew probably breaks the monotony of paperwork nothing wrong with that Andrew ❤😊😮

@OneEyeCustoms 11 месяцев назад

I don’t own an axis but have used Adam’s several times. I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again, this particular machine is one of the best I have ever run!

@noelstractors-firewood57 11 месяцев назад

Great video. That splitter will do any spitting job, that’s for sure. Sure like the fiddle music.

@KNLFirewood 11 месяцев назад

You know I love our Axis. We do it all on it…boiler wood, bundle wood, bulk firewood, cooking chunks, solo stove wood…it’s so versatile. Keep the good stuff coming!

@buckinfirewood 11 месяцев назад

I make all kinds of different products on my Axis.. from 1 foot kindling to 22 inch boiler from rounds that Joe from Ohio would put aside till later..lol... a must have for any woodlot

@oldguyfirewood 11 месяцев назад

Good video showing the versatility of the AXIS. It’s usually thought of as the ideal bundle wood machine, but it’s obviously great for boiler wood too.

@thefirewooddoctor 11 месяцев назад

What I like about this type of splitter is when it comes to big wood, is a lot easier to do resplits on than the splitters we have!

@atskooc 11 месяцев назад

If it can split bundle wood, it should be a no-brainer that it can do bigger splits. Most of the time we see people run an Axis they make big splits initially before spinning the wood to make smaller pieces. I’m not sure why anyone would have thought this machine couldn’t do this type of work.

@jakebredthauer5100 11 месяцев назад

What about Eastonmade's new bundle wood machine?

@daveschooley8514 11 месяцев назад

Looks like he splits it too small, if it fits throw it in the door, that the way I feed mine?

@daveschooley8514 11 месяцев назад

His splitting is bigger after middle of video, more my size!

@thefirewooddoctor 11 месяцев назад

Here is a video idea. Compare the Axis to a horizontal splitter with a regular and box wedge making boiler wood out of big rounds over 20 inch diameter. Would love to see such a speed race and how the different styles of splitters work on big rounds. The nicest thing about the Axis is that there are ZERO wedge changes to do any type of split size!

@Z-Bart 11 месяцев назад

Good music choice Andrew!

@user-rx3gt6qk6q 11 месяцев назад

Another great video Andrew!!

@thefirewooddoctor 11 месяцев назад

I wasn't in thw market for this type of splitter when I got the one I have. But processing location, change in customer needs for type of wood that resulted from the change in woodyard location has put me in the market for such a machine. What makes the conveyor a very nice feature is that it eliminates the need for another person to chuck wood into the trailer. I really like how the work table speeds up resplits.

@mikehughes2026 11 месяцев назад

Hello Doc, for fellas like us getting up-there in age, the Axis is number 1 when it comes to ease-of-use, custom split sizes, etc. and with zero “Waste” compared to pulverizing rounds through a box wedge. I will be buying one when the right time comes, think one of these beauties would be good for your operation.🇺🇸🇨🇦

@thefirewooddoctor 11 месяцев назад

@mikehughes2026 there are other options out there, one will be on the market soon. Am waiting for it to be finished before making a decision. Going to go try it out.

@yorkfirewood 11 месяцев назад

I love my Axis. We were just running it today for some really nasty, knotty pin oak. I have a whole bunch of this stuff and can't wait to get through this for some nice wood! Just wanted to remind you that you said you would put together a video on how to adjust the foot pedal on the Axis. Maybe to include other adjustments you can make also. Best wishes, and we'll see you at the Paul Bunyon festival! Cheers!

@jakebredthauer5100 11 месяцев назад

How complicated can it be? If you look at it you might see or at least be better prepared for someone to explain it. I know the blade height is adjustable. The best height for the blade is far enough above the wood so that when you see it coming you can pull your fingers away. The table height can be adjusted by putting a platform under the machine or in front of the machine. The best height for the foot pedal is so you can keep your heel of your foot on the ground at all times for a reference point.

Not to many people can handle rounds that size, you make it look easy. Thsnks.

@shanejeffries6147 10 месяцев назад

I need this sound track for everytime I fire up my new 37D! Thanks Andrew and team! Been making these big rounds a walk in the park ;)

@nickcr1312 11 месяцев назад

Ot funny you are making a boiler wood video. I have been running boiler wood thru my axis every evening this week! Such a versatile machine i love mine! Its the best vertical splitter on the market!

@dropshot1967 11 месяцев назад

Have you seen the video that One Eyed Customs did with a number of suggestions to improve the Axis. I thought there were some suggestions that were really useful and could be added as an extra option or ad-on. Mind you, I don't do firewood myself so judge for yourself.

@richiecaelwarts1911 11 месяцев назад

I like that splitter and the big boiler wood you sure have the best machines buddy .

@obiorah1 11 месяцев назад

this was a nice introduction that was well constructed and explained thank you Andrew for Sharing it,

@michaeljheinz3336 11 месяцев назад

Great job Andrew. The Axis is very impressive.

@chrismartin4776 11 месяцев назад

I bought an Axis for the huge rounds because I didn’t want to mess with pulling the rounds back or risk them falling off the side. Plus I would have wanted a 37D and can’t justify paying for it. I have 30 hours on it. It works well for most logs. Runs more efficient with 2 people. I like the precision and being able to split around knots.

@3cl1 11 месяцев назад

What a great way for me to unwind. It's a great video, Andrew.

@tomriblett2979 11 месяцев назад

well if you want to give me a used one I would sure take it. don't have a lot of money so can not afford to buy one. We have an outside wood burner but it is not a boiler but it does heat our home.

@carnesdiy 11 месяцев назад

If only I could talk my wife into one. Keep making great machines, and one day I maybe able to get one. I'm hoping to make it to Bunyan on Friday maybe I'll be able to meet you.

@hardworkingmanoutdoors 11 месяцев назад

I have some big rounds lined up to run through the Axis as well. I’ll break them down into smoker wood though. A very versatile splitter.

@adirondackwoodsman 11 месяцев назад

Good Video Andrew! Hope to see you in a few weeks when i come up to pick up my 12-22. Have a great weekend!

@scottsoper 11 месяцев назад

I think a commercial firewood operation would need an Axis, 37D, 40C, 60C, DSC20 Disk Cleaner, Mobil Hydraulic Pack, various conveyors and several extra wedges for each splitter other than the Axis. Support in moving the wood around JCB Wheel Loader (large bucket, log grapple, forks) , JCB mini excavator with log grapple to lift BIG rounds into position for the 37D. And don't forget LOTS of logs!!!

@clarkharms 11 месяцев назад

And a big ass loan to pay for it all😂

@jakebredthauer5100 11 месяцев назад

How many acres?

@thefirewooddoctor 11 месяцев назад

You'll need more than an acre for the equipment! And 700 cords a ywar in aales to warrant the expense of said equipment.

@scottsoper 11 месяцев назад

@@jakebredthauer5100 First I am day dreaming Second my guess is that to be safe you would need to have about 3000 acres at ten trees per acre using 300 acres per year. More would be better. That is just a guess. However owning your own Forrest is not the likely way to get logs. Tree trimmers, scrap slabs from sawyers, buying firewood quality logs from loggers and so on.

@scottsoper 11 месяцев назад

@@thefirewooddoctor That sounds about right! Only about 120-130 costumers where I used to live.

@dbcopper10 8 месяцев назад

Andrew, your own user's manual states never have your thumbs on top of the wood (that's a hard habit to break, eh?) And what's with you stubborn Canadians...ever hear of gloves? PS...just got the Axis this week, having a ball. I almost cried tears of joy when the first big round was hoisted by the lift table.

@dereksstuff8395 11 месяцев назад

Good show/explanation. Great machine indeed

@haroldanderson2781 11 месяцев назад

I had the opportunity to run Ohio Joes axis and that machine is impressive.

Man that Axis sure is a great splitter! 👍💪👍

@atskooc 11 месяцев назад

Yes!

@mikemoeller7059 11 месяцев назад

Man I need one of those sweet splitters. But since my little wood business makes zero money, I'll have to stick with my Northstar splitter.

@richhurtle9102 11 месяцев назад

I have a Eastonmade splitter on order but I've been running a Northstar splitter for probably 10 years and probably split 100 cord with it. It's been a great splitter.

@mikemoeller7059 11 месяцев назад

The Northstar works great. But standing upright would be nicer. It's all fun either way. Maybe I can get donations for a new splitter from the community.

@TCsOutdoors1 11 месяцев назад

The axis has a huge working Area with the log lift up, I can see how that would be a lot easier on the operator handling the bigger rounds.

@willowcreekwoods 10 месяцев назад

Andrew love your splitters but I’m just a home owner and split 30 to 50 cord a year. I also sell a little here and there. I own a splitfire 2265 electric love it and also use my buddies timber wolf tw-6 with conveyor, But I would love an Easton made axis but electric, 110v 1.5hp rated at around 18 ton. I’ve seen power splits vertical but table way too low and you guys look like you have a better quality. No maintenance no oil no gas flip the switch and your splitting. I think you should make an axis 110v without conveyor let me try it for a year 😅😅😅 and I’m guessing you guys would sell a ton of them. The 110 axis or if 220 then call it 220 axis.

@fricknjeep 11 месяцев назад

hi there not to shabby , john

@kenskuts 11 месяцев назад

I need an Axis in my life for making my smoking bundles and pizza oven oak/beech! Maybe some day I’ll find a used one on FB Marketplace without the conveyor!! Or maybe Jeffrey O. can make me a sweeeeet deal ???

@thefirewooddoctor 11 месяцев назад

Eastonmade Axis isn't the only vertical splitter on the market, but is the best available for now. And I'm a Wolfe Ridge owner saying that! Keep an eye out for new splitter models coming out soon.

@adirondackwoodsman 11 месяцев назад

Was that Canadian County Music 🤣

@beenthere940 11 месяцев назад

Have you ever tried a rubber belt instead of a metal chain for your conveyors? It seems that wood laying on a belt would have a greater chance of continuously moving rather than waiting for a chain cross link to catch the edge of a piece of wood.

@EastonmadeWoodSplitters 11 месяцев назад

I dont think it work with the inlines we run.

@clarkharms 11 месяцев назад

One thing I don’t like about the axis is how close your fingers are to the wedge. Probably not to dangerous in practice but looks alarming when watching. Clearly the Axis is slow compared to the other splitters you offer but you acknowledge that and the results, a cord an hour, were expected. Not really the right tool for the job in this scenario.

@RobAllround 11 месяцев назад

Hey Andrew, I really like your log splitters. I think it's a shame that they aren't allowed in Germany. I would love to test it out on my RU-vid channel with my 90 cm cotton rounds. Maybe at some point it will be possible to buy your log splitters with approval in Germany. I would be very happy about this.

@jakebredthauer5100 11 месяцев назад

Develop a constituency and lobby the legislature. Germany is fighting for its life and they are likely not concerned about which brand of wood splitter you get. It is a volatile situation and the outcome is uncertain.

@cecilwells-tm4ss 11 месяцев назад

👍

@benca6151 11 месяцев назад

Would love to try one out. Definitely can't afford one. Definitely would rather have a splitter with the box wedge.

@jakebredthauer5100 11 месяцев назад

Do you have large diameter wood?

@benca6151 11 месяцев назад

@jakebredthauer5100 it varies for me when I'm making firewood. This past year I was splitting 36 inch oak. It wasn't easy

@jakebredthauer5100 11 месяцев назад

@@benca6151 Some splitters will pivot to a vertical position to split a round while the round is still on the ground. If you have a tractor that would help to lift the round up onto the splitter. Noodling is using the saw to cut a round in half. A vertical splitter or a box wedge would work well. For hand splitting, it helps to cut a slot a few inches deep with the chainsaw for the splitting wedge to go into.

@jakebredthauer5100 11 месяцев назад

Vertical splitters have a low output because the operator needs to hold the piece instead of getting another piece. The design is not tough enough for a multi-wedge. They are good for the large rounds, for handcrafted wood and logs with crosswise grain.

@thefirewooddoctor 11 месяцев назад

Yeah, for a "one push and done" size of round, a horizontal splitter is much faster. For rounds that need resplitting, it is either a box wedge or Axis for speed.

@jakebredthauer5100 11 месяцев назад

@@thefirewooddoctor That is what I meant.

@heymakerphd1982 11 месяцев назад

Looks like the same rules apply up there as here, picking up those big rounds to stack 'em make you vulnerable to slicing rings! - Been wondering for long time, do you make the Axis in a left hander version? In Canada, if you don't have a boiler, can you still burn those giant boiler chunks?

@EastonmadeWoodSplitters 11 месяцев назад

We dont do it in a lett hand version. A lot of people push the off cuts and junk wood into a pile and burn them
