Hey Bill! I’ve learned to read the wood and machine pretty well but never take anything for granted. So yes, I was on edge 🤣

Hi Dan! It really is a problem for me. I should just throw it away but if there’s a way for me to get some firewood out of it, I usually try.

@WoodchuckCanuck 5 месяцев назад

Flip that crotch piece 180º so your splitting in the direction of growth. You'll have a way easier, and safer, time with it.

@KNLFirewood 5 месяцев назад

Yes sir! Chip away at the edges like a guy with an axe would do!

@FirewoodMidwest 5 месяцев назад

I had a piece stop the 35 ton with single wedge once. It hardly even made a mark on it. Thing was like concrete. Of course I flipped it and split from the other end and it went right through. But it still amazes me how hard wood can get. Take care Mike!👍🏻

@ronatwell5379 5 месяцев назад

I have a little 22 ton splitter that I learned to do those "double barrels" with. I turn the round upside down so that the wedge is going into the bottom of it. Got the wedge stuck too many times trying to go from the top down. And my splitter doesn't have the extractor to be able to back a stuck wedge out. I have literally had to cut a round off the wedge with a chainsaw before, it was elm. LOL

@KNLFirewood 5 месяцев назад

I’ve ALMOST had to do the same thing, I learned from Chris In The Woodyard, you can wrap a chain around the stuck piece and whatever part of your splitter that is static, then then back the wedge out. Works pretty slick!

@BGWenterprises 5 месяцев назад

@circlebmn 5 месяцев назад

Yep that one was an ugly for sure. Surprising at times what kind of sellable wood you can get out of a round with the control of the Axis.

@KNLFirewood 5 месяцев назад

For sure. You know. I burn about 10 full cords per year and I’ve sold the last two seasons to a guy that has the same boiler set up as I do that burns about the same amount. So I can either throw it away or turn it into money??

@clubdoraoutdoorsandfirewood 5 месяцев назад

What your splitting looks a lot like our last video. Mine was Basswood. The Axis handled that wood very well. Start chipping away on the outside and sooner or later it gives. Good job Mike. Interesting what the 462 comparison with the 400 will look like. Also need to see what you’re doing with purchased wood ? Is it kiln dried? Let’s get that video out. Later my friend? /

Great demonstration of why I don't mess with those crotches. Just really not worth it and a guy doesn't end up with anything that could be sold. I know you'll burn it in your boiler, but what a pain in the butt. Axis for the win, but glad you didn't get hurt along the way.

@HybridWoodworks 2 месяца назад

I was considering an Axis, but I get a lot of tree service crotch logs in my area. What’s the biggest danger with these? I have a small horizontal splitter and I’ve had pieces shoot left and right, but never up. The blade kicks it to the sides. I’d think it would do the same on the Axis. Have you ever had a piece come at you? I wouldn’t want a broken jaw or ribs.

@KNLFirewood 2 месяца назад

@@HybridWoodworks you certainly learn to read the wood and the machine. When I first got it I had a pc shoot off the table but not since. Couldn't tell you how many cords I've split with it...100's of full cords. I get tree service stuff too. A lot of it is tough splitting, but the Axis is the only way to split that stuff. Buy one. You won't regret it! Tell them I sent you! 🤣

@HybridWoodworks 2 месяца назад

@@KNLFirewood Thanks. You’re the only channel out there showing it splitting the really gnarly stuff that I get here all the time. I just checked one out in person yesterday. It’s a seriously heavy duty machine. I’ll reach out with any additional questions but I think one is going to be ordered soon.
