I just might consider this

I saw this listing while I was looking for a log splitter.

I was borrowing a friends and he needed it back(indefinitly).
I"ll tell ya this much it ain't easy splitting 24" long rounds by hand.

Man do I miss that splitter. It was sweet. It was a Timberwollf TW5 with a log lifter.

So I just might consider this.

I have seen that same machine in action at a county fair in NH a couple years ago. It's on my "dream" list of toys to have some day. Kinda pricey but well worth it.

If you get your wood cheap or free and have a lot to split that would be well worth it.

I get all my wood for free.(so far) knock on wood. No pun intended!

I spoke to the guy. He comes with a hydraulic splitter (he said something from Lowes)and a Super Splitter.
I was interested in the Super Splitter.
I would pay him to split a few cords just to see if the Super Splitter is really all that is cracked up to be.

My ultimate goal is to get the Timberwolf TW5 back from my friend That thing is a beast.
But since that may not happen in the near future this may be the next best thing.

I did speak to him and he said " He charges $70 per hour and will split everything I give him, from as little as one cord . He would prefer a few cord but will come for only one cord as well, but would try to schedule it when he has some jobs in the area.

The TW5 looks like a assume machine the four way wedge really sets it apart.http://www.ebay.com/itm/2010-Timber...004?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item337263a104

Theres been a guy advertising in my area that hell come cut and split a cord for you for $75, I asked him waht he has for a splitter and he said he uses a maul, that dude earns his money. Hes been out of work and at least hes out there trying to make money.

I feel bad for guys like that, got to give him kudos for making a hard effort to make an honest buck.
