Jags said:Chris - sorry if my post was misleading. It was simply to refute the idea that running an electric splitter for a few hours was going to raise the electric bill by such a large sum of bucks.
Electric splitters have their place, not at my place , but I am sure somewhere. The Ramsplitter looks like a capable machine, but depending on a persons splitting logistics, will not be useful in many situations. The same can be said of a gasser (garage use, night time use, etc.).

timfromohio said:I'm not sure if anybody said this already, but I'll go so far as to say that I'd only consider a gas splitter that tilts horizontal/vertical. I don't own one and rent one once/twice a year. I wind up using the splitter only on really big rounds and use the splitter exclusively in it's vertical position. Seems pointless to lift a round up and split - if they are small/light enough to lift up and handle, then you may as well split them by hand. Anybody else feel this way?
