Splitting the trailer load full of firewood dumped on the muddy ground is happening today AND IT IS NOT TO MUDDY AT ALL! Way cleaner than I and you thought it would be!
Morning Chris! That’s the difference right there between a commercial splitter and a box store one like mine. There’s no way I would have put that big of a dent in those re-splits. That would have been a couple day job🤣 I was also worried when you dumped the wood in the mud but it looked great 🤷♂️ Take care👍🏻👍🏻GNI
You talk the right amount. Love to see the wood being split. Good backup job too. The shorter the trailer the harder it is. Leave That debris for the Next dump. Keep the wood clean. That was great production.
What happened to your worker that was helping you. That pile would been done in no time awesome video I wish I could start a wood business but I have health issues and this job looks physical easy but like I said health problems keep me from doing this
G’Afternoon Chris ! Most excellent smallerizing today. Reminds me of the old days. Chuck-A-Luckster. I’m very excited for tomorrow’s video ! GoodNightIrene
Morning Chris, great video Your splitter is really fast,but I've found it takes a fast operator to make a fast machine. Not sure if shortening the return stroke would give you anymore speed.? You probably dont need more anyway. I had to buy in some wood this yr, got a cord of blue gum that had been submerged by a horrendous flood caused by a cyclone. Totally smothered in silt. Took a lot of hosing to clean that down. You wood looked prime in comparrison. Cheers from HB NZ
You should try backing my motorcycle camper behind my one ton Long Box Crew Cab . It is about the same size as the Ultra As long as I do not see the Trailer I know it is going straight. Once I see it poking out at either side I know it is turning. You can get a Front receiver for Trucks..
Hey Chris, I’ve been watching your video’s for a while now and I’ve started selling firewood about 3 months ago and it’s going well so far. My question for ya is what are your thoughts on Ambrosia Maple that’s a bigger portion of the firewood I have around me in northeastern Iowa. I Was just curious on your thoughts about the wood do you think it’s worth the same as a oak log or even elm?
Great video as always. What do y'all do when you split into some wood that's infested with termites, ants, etc? Do y'all still keep it or burn it? Thanks
Chris, I,ve been noticing that you don't use the 4-way wedge anymore ( or rarely ) . Is that because of using the processor more ? Or do you have other reasons ? Love the channel !
Anyone who has ever driven a tractor trailer knows how hard it is to back a small trailer. It's near to impissible after having backed a long trailer for so long. I have major respect for those who can easily back short trailers. Nice splitting session.
Nice video/split ash. That wood looks to have actually dried quite a bit since the processor ate it. We are back in a burn ban warning because of high winds and very low relative humidity. Can’t play in the fire but the wood pile is drying quickly. Feel for the good people of Texas and Oklahoma and SW Nebraska who are losing so much to the big fires.
Hi Chris!!😀😀 A Axis would be nice for doing resplits. But I don't think you could get it in between that set of bins. The ultra still does a great job!! Take care my friend!!😀😀💚💚 Logger Al
Gotta love it, when bucking a log, when your measured cuts give you a round with ALL the knots and crotches in it, lol. Grain going every which way, odd shape chunks coming off when you yry to split it, and it WILL NOT behave and split like you want... I usually get tired of it, and either toss it in the campground pile, or if its grill wood- bust out the battery saw, and make grill chunks out of it. " Tell ME you aren't going to split...!"
If people think that is muddy wood, they would've had an aneurysm if they saw the mud and dirt on the semi truck load of logs I finished bucking this past week.
" Forgive me Father for I have sinned..." To funny! you must have went to a parochial school when you were young.. Made me laugh brought back memories for me:)
It is obvious you have a ton of experience splitting wood .. it is also obvious that this splitter has been very good for/to you. Great backup by the way ... glad you found the hole. :)
You remind me of myself in a lot of ways, but lately I need to up my game to match your work ethic. I thought I was a workaholic bro ... then again you are just enjoying what you really enjoy and the people you share that with ... God bless.
@InTheWoodyard Stop blaming having to let us tag along, as the cause for slowing you down!🤣 We were completely quiet...It had to be all the attempts of backing the splitter with the truck, that were edited out and used all the time up!!🤣
It adds a lot of time moving cameras when by yourself. I thought about adding the commentary of that when doing my video but decided not to. Chris hit record button by accident.
