Love the raw footage gives us the opportunity to see how you process the wood at real time.. keep them coming...

I enjoyed the unedited video and would like to see more of these in your video mix

No matter what you do I learn all the time

First, I appreciate you taking the time to comment on my channel, being new to wood splitting. Also, i appreciate these videos because i pick up tips from you here and Adam from Hometown Acres that i can apply to my future wood splitting. Very good stuff as i look forward to continually learn from you!! Thank you!!

Well you probably know by now that the quality of your videos are excellent and we all enjoy the material that you are putting out. Always instructive and entertaining. Keep at it we love you and your daughter and have a great day!

Hi Joe. I’m surprised by how much the saw bogs the Honda down while cutting. I’m watching from a suburb of Philadelphia, am 77 yrs old and your channel is purely entertainment. I used to heat my house in Wisconsin with a wood furnace. But that was 40 yrs. ago. Thanks.

Wow! No wonder you like processing firewood. Thats an awesome machine.

That Japa 360 Pro sure kicks ash! Kudos to your videographer. Well done giving us lots of angles!

Thanks for real time footage of processing wood. I have split my own for years with a splitting maul, and man oh man, what a joy to split with a machine. You get great consistency and your wood looks perfect.

What a smart invention. My first time seeing such versatile machine.

Great video Joe. It was awesome to see how your day of cutting goes. Great camera work as well, felt as if was right there with you. Have a great day from West Michigan. 👍🏻👍🏻

I like the "look behind the curtains" so to speak. gives a good feel for what is actually happening. Great machine.

I like the un-edited version. I have 3 splitters and a processor and things sometimes don't go as planned. It is good to see the complete process. Some think firewood is a easy, fast money. Ha! The good, bad and the ugly! Love it! Keep these coming!

Nice to see the realtime video of how many logs you can do.

That was fun. Nice weather again. I see the snow is gone. That's great.

Good to go Joe. Enjoyed it thoroughly. Glad to see you had the assistance of your new hand tools. 👍

Great real time video . Stay safe .

Nice weather on you side of the lake . Thank for showing its not all peaches and cream with a Japa

Morning Joe that yapa 365 is a sweet machine wow by the looks of it it was worth every penny it does everything u need it to do and more a great vid stay safe loved the vid

Great processor for that sized wood, I see you can start cutting whilst the splitter is retracting, thanks for the real time it's good to see how quick it can get through it.

Wow love your big boys toys ,you've got the touch of a master

I enjoy this type of video, splitting, stacking and loading etc, keep safe my friend

Wow first time of seeing a machine like that!!!!

Nice machine. No editing needed when the pro on the camera captures all the pertinent action. 👍

I see you had everything warmed up nice and boots no sneakers always work boots stay safe Woodstock ct

I like the real time video.

Awesome video, just raw footage! Love watching that japa work, one of the better reviews on RU-vid of the unit👍 log lift, more like back saver!

I really like this type of video it was neat to see processor at work:)

Appreciate the raw footage, watched all the way through!

That's a cool machine

I like that processor. 👍

Great video! Thanks!

Great video and good info presented as always.

Very nice. I am late to the party. I know You have already got a bigger machine. But this shows the ability of this one well

Loved the video! Always great content Joe!

Morning Joe! I see two well oiled machines, perfectly matched! Great camera action 👍 take care buddy

Nicely done Joe.. I bet you would have a lot of people come over to help you if you offered.. Than again we all might be in the way as you were doing a great job by yourself, and not everyone can bring you lunch at the same time.. Lol Oh many different possibilitys running through my mind.. Lol

I'd like to see this sort of format using the Super Split. In my day the super split was the splitter we all used.

Awesome video 👍💯

Happy 2021. Enjoy your channel. Could you weld an extension on your sawdust ejector to attach a plastic bag for collecting shavings and create a market for the shavings?

That is a processor seems to work great 👍

Nice size logs for the 4 way

Joe, I love these videos! I hope you don't mind, I have a bunch of questions: At 11:10 (and again at 15:20) you cut off a small piece - maybe 8". Was that because the machine can't hold a 24" long log and cut off 16"? Do you have a tape measure along the loading conveyor that shows you how much to cut off (or even just a mark at 16" so you run the butt end to there) so the next to last piece is the short? You also seem to have quite the pile of shorts and oddballs - what do you do with them? Finally, what is your tolerance - if there is 15" left to you split and sell? 14"? 17-18". As I've told you, I have plenty of wood. This looks therapeutic and much easier on my back that the way I do it now.

Great video Joe. That Japa works pretty good!

Nice vid! Yard’s looking pretty dry too. wondered if you ever considered a thin spread of #1 or crusher run out there for some stability. Did this with 1/2 acre of mine, made a big difference. Keep em comin!

Have you run into logs that the lifter wouldn't pick up?

Morning Joe! You put a pretty good dent in the log pile. I wish we had a lead on cull logs here in S Illinois. I have searched with no success. One day I will!👍🏻👍🏻

Hello, since you deal with higher end residential customers, have you ever thought about building or buying a rotating slotted drum carriage in order to debark your pieces and also remove wood dust? That would make your product even more hypoallergenic. So much of what people hate about burning wood is the sneeze factor. Thanks for the videos!

Joe great video ,that unit puts out the wood .For my operation and wood supply i need a machine that does 18" and down diam that would do 75% of the wood i get. I have been looking at the brute force 14-24 withe optional engine up grade and the up grade to handle bigger wood, live deck ,longet conveyor ,hyd oil cooler, 4 and 8way .Did you finance any part of your japa .was just wondering if it makes sense to finance a small part of the purchase. thanx for any help you can offer Andrew The Wood Guy.

Bravo! I come to the channel to watch wood being processed (sometimes you talk a lot). I like to hear the machine working. Good job advancing the log while the ram is splitting! I enjoy working a machine hard while not being hard on a machine. Good camera work! A nice as the Japa is, the lack of a chute for the sawdust is a surprise. GOOD VIDEO!!

Joe, I wonder if you could capture the saw dust and sell it as a oil absorber for garage auto repair.

Definitely a cool video. Maybe consider getting a pellet mill for all that sawdust you're making.

Very good.

This was great! Enjoyed watching the whole process. Hard to beat ash for wood, going to make a premium product! I was curious how often you have to sharpen the chain or how you tell if it needs sharpened? Thanks for taking us along, take care Joe!

Joe, you might consider add an extension on your wood where sawdust come out to get it away from the machine, it comes out all over the fuel tank, wheel, etc.

Hi Joe - it's Big Rodders in Ireland. I'm envious of the consistency of your log supply, it makes processing such a joy - I have to deal with all shapes, sizes and species, whatever the Tree Surgery teams come in with. You have beautiful weather there today, the sky is fabulous and the ground and logs look so dry. How did all your snow last week disappear so quickly?

Awesome video! Just curious, I believe you said its got a 16" bar ... what chain are you useing ? (Stihl, Husqvarna,ect) ... ever run a carbine chain on it /would you ever ?

Happy Sunday morning from New England. As someone who has been cutting and burning firewood his whole life, and hoping to get into the business in the next couple years, I thoroughly enjoyed this video, and all of your other content as well.

Do you have a lot of standing dead Ash? We have a lot of it here in upstate NY.

I am not sure how often you move the Japa, but I am thinking a gutter hookup where the chips come out of the chainsaw into a 5 gallon bucket or a wheelbarrow would not block in that wheel and make it easier to move.

Are you not using the Super Splitter any-longer? This is a real nice process!

Hey, it worked great

Noticed the up close look to your husky chainsaw. What model do you run? Just bought a 455 still in the break in process. Always love watching the Woodhounds at work

I truly did enjoy this getting it done type video, thanks again!!! I have a question from another video about your am Leonard wheelbarrow as I am in the market for a really good one!!! Should there be any concerns about the plastic tube cracking in the cold winter, did you get the pneumatic or the solid tire, and if you had it shipped, how did they ship it and the shipping costs!! Looks like a good one but those are some concerns!! Thanks Joe👋

Hello from Chicago! Love these types of videos! How many cords do you think you could produce in an hour running the same sized logs?

Not sure if you have thought of this or how hard it would be bit if you could somehow collect the saw dust and then sell it as bedding. My wife has horses and that is what we buy and use. Just a thought also loved the video

This was a great break time video. I got to view from my phone on my lunch break.. question 🙋🏻‍♂️ what do do with the large amount of saw dust , like use it for fire starter well I would mix it with wax so it would clump up. But just curious . Joe from California oh I’m planting tree today.

Always a 👍🏽. Is the pusher suppose to touch the knife?

Хороший у вас дровокол , классно работаете 👍

How many cut do you get on your chain before having to sharpen and or replace?

Japa at its best on that smaller wood. Looks about a 6 second cycle time?

Curious, at 8:24 you remove bark from the splitting chute, is this to prevent the splitter from "loading up" or to keep the splitting knife sharp?

A response from the Netherlands. I like this vids. Keep it up. These 13 logs tooke you about half an hour to split. How long does it take to stack the wood?

Love the video Joe. Just curious, have you ever taken the time to calculate the ROI for the Jappa?

How long have you had the Machine? You can get a lot of firewood done in a short amount of time with that thing!

Interesting. Thank you. Is this typical, no jams and so quick?

Some of those curved logs took some extra effort to get through the processor. Are you missing a log bunk near the processor? Looks like this batch of logs were only rolling on one bunk. I think that LogRite Peavey you have spiked into the ground would me more useful for helping roll the logs to the load loader instead of the hookaroon. Less lifting, more rolling.

I like it.Especially without the load music.

LIKED THE VIDEO

I bet it would double if you were not loading logs. That seems to be the bottle neck. Was actually surprised at how quick it was. I do have to ask why not reposition the machine for a shorter roll to load the machine?

Great channel and the camera man covered it all. I know a lot of the firewood channels won't dry the firewood and insist it's the customers job, is that a policy you think is good business or not? It seems like it could lead to drying fees and extra handling fees

Nice to see some Fin products over the pond :) now when you @ohio wood burner know how this machine works, what do think about it? I would say that everything manufactured over here is pretty much the same "high standard" even though it will cost a few cents... Is there by the way any chans you can buy one over there for own use, is there any economy in that?

I guess you must still be digging out from the snowstorm and needed to pull out some “stock footage”👍 Keep up the good work

Hello from Chicago! Love these types of videos! If you ran the machine for an hour straight, same type of wood, how many cords do you think it would produce?

Wow that japa is a beast of a machine! Great camera work and another awesome video Joe!

Sure wish you were a few miles from me rather than100s. I would buy firewood from you in a heart beat!!

Honestly I wouldn't even split about everything you put through there. I deal with a lot of big oak (24" - 36") and we heat 100% with a big indoor stove. So if it's 6" - 8" or smaller it probably doesn't get split at all so that thing really seems like a waste of money for my type of application. Those small splits just burn too fast and I hate to get up all night lol

Joe, Great Processor, However watching you with ear protection and Muck Boots, makes me Appreciate my Halverson 120 and Bobcats Quite comfortable with its Heated Air Ride seat, listening to music, Your JAPA is an Impressive Spitter👍🏼🇱🇷

Unedited videos are the best! Too many commercials though... Should only be one commercial every 5-8 minutes

What is the largest diameter and length that machine can handle?

I did like this.

As always, I enjoyed the video. You do an excellent job of producing a variety of content. Watching thg his video I had two specific thoughts. First would a helper on the processor significantly increase production? As I've stated before I'm not a big fan of employees, but if you had someone who could have the next log on the lift while you're processing the previous one and then possibly be able to bounce down to the conveyor to help clear issues on that end... obviously this would speed up production, but is it enough to warrant the cost? My second thought was could you have a log feed table that still loads with the hydraulic log lift? I'm thinking even if you were still loading with the log lift, but could load 8 or 10 logs at a time would that be significantly more efficient? In my mind I'm seeing you be able to load the log table and then "just run" till those logs are processed, then you could push the wood around in the trailer and load thg he next batch of logs. Again would it make enough of a difference to justify the expense? As you've probably realized by now I have a thing for efficiency, mainly because as I get older I cant just make up for my inefficiencies by working harder/longer like I could as a young man. Have a dry week!

How much are you selling a year?

What is the max diameter the Japa can handle?

What engine is on your particular unit machine?

looks like you need to weld some grabbers on your thing that is putting the wood in the trailer

From Australia... How do these logs of Ash compare to a hard wood like our red gum?..anyone know?

Yes i like this video this really cool budd you did a really good jop today buddy i was work on my house me and my wife was this y was on live Friday night goid jop today buddy

Therapeutic!
