  1. Oh so just a draw bar and wheels, for that case tractor i thought maybe you were planning a complete gas. powered splitter to go behind your atv.

     

    fish...... I told you i wouldn't have sold that if i was in your place... that would have been a nice handy setup, not to mention all the other chores she could do.

  2. No just horizontal is fine for me we don’t really get big enough wood around here that vertical would be worth having.

     

    I gotcha ......one things forsure, It's more efficient then my one way! Even  With that 4 way slip on wedge That's a. Great video too! 

     

    So along with a draw bar, your adding a gas powered hydraulic power unit, wheels, and a oil tank ?

  3. I hear ya on things poping up...... I recon..... I have OCD about keeping tanks topped off (when possible) I've always questioned whether it was a good idea to to cut the fuel off, JUST to run the carb dry....I've never done that, and never had any issues, I'm not of the opinion it's a bad , or good idea, i just rightly don't know, how ever....I do use the fuel cut ( petcock) off religiously, i had the carb on that Biggs 15 horse fail, to my surprise.... The crank case was filled with pure gas..... And saw a few 300,s at little Johnny's the same way..... Motor oil completely diluted.

  4. 27 ton troy biult, right ? ..... I fired my Kohlar powered splitter up two weeks ago (just to make sure she's in running order) i used use red stabil, then swopped over to green, and the tank topped completely off , of corse i do all my fuel tanks like that, I'm saving alot of $$ on fuel at the moment......sigh.... Everything is ready to work......

     

    doesnt that troy built have a vertical shaft honda plant ? 


  5. Naw, i never rock mine, i saw from bottom up i hardly ever get close to the the soil, although ..... Old grown in fence line is a dif story, simple way to avoid damage to my good chains is swop to an older chain, (for stumping) or just high cut the said tree., as for speed.. The ol o39 has plenty of rpm/power but i never run it at high speed, don't need to with a razor sharp chain,with that being said, I'm dealing with some bad health issues at the moment, so..... Firewood harvesting is on the back burner.

     

    If you 'rock' your saw, you've got less teeth to sharpen

     

    ^^^ just one the reasons why she's armed with a full skip chisels 

     

    another question  for you wood chucks, how many of you rip split your firewood ?? (Looks like too much trouble verses a wood splitter, or x27 fiskars splitting axe)  Personally, i never have used a rip chain
