This was a little clean up of the top of a tree I dropped mid winter. This makes for less lifting, then stacked right into the crate.

What make splitter is that? Looks like a good one.

EDIT. Timberwolf, I noticed the model number under the plastic

If I'm stooping over the splitter there is always **** to pay after.

So I grovel rolling the rounds into place after bringing them in close to the splitter with the loader.

I had the same problem stooping over the splitter. Could only last about 20 minutes before the back started complaining. Solved the problem somewhat by lifting the splitter and putting some unsplit rounds under the wheels. (I'm 5'10'')

Most of the horizontal vertical splitters are a pain to use horizontal. I preferred to sit on a round or 5 gallon bucket and use it in the vertical position. Someone stole that splitter and I replaced it with a much more operator friendly horizontal only splitter with the wedge on the end of the beam.

I used to think if I ever bought one of those small horizontal/verticle splitters I would set it on a hay wagon in the verticle position and work from the side. never bought one but built my own splitter to my desires. I'm now over 60 with a bad back but can stand at this table splitter for hours and not hurt a bit. Just last week we put through six of these facecords stacked on the skids I use in a short day working with my son who was putting the blocks on the trailer with a tractor loader.

Once in a while I am glad that I'm a sawed off short guy. Just the right size for a little Husky splitter. I know there are two preferences for wedge arrangements but I prefer the wedge on the ram. I load the bucket with blocks and set it hip high at the splitter. Then I can stand in one spot, grab a block off the bucket, split off the pieces, and throw them into a stacked row as they come off. If the piece is to big to handle at one time on the table I split it in half. Let one half flop on the table and put the other half that is in my hands back in the bucket. For me it is smooth and comfortable work flow. I can split a hole bucket full w/o moving.
