How I Built My Firewood Bundler
I had a few people ask about a video on how I built it. Because it was one of my first welding projects, I didn’t really make a video when I did, but this one will give you the gist of how I made it. It works AWESOME! I wouldn’t trade it for any other!

    get yerself a gallon of Black Jack Tire Repair BJK-LB-800 Tire Mounting Lubricant, and, a red Straight Lube Bucket for Coats Changers with 3 Lube Swabs that are 11.5" Length, and then slather away at all the surfaces, then go to town on your tire changin job. Then it doesn't matter if there's any leftover liquid anywhere on the rim or in the tire when your job's all done. The Black Jack is good for your tire, doesn't hurt the rim, and helps seal the bead even better.

    In all fairness the basic machine is Quite capable. If you plan on cutting More than a cord or two you're going To neef the hydraulic blade assist And the hydraulic in feed. We added Both and ended up at about $10,500. Both additional festures are really Worth the money. We cut about 15 Full cords a year and we really feel The assisting add ons are essential. Very solid hard performing machine.

    I would imagine the vegetable oil increases the wear on your bar producing grooves in the rails that allow the chain to wander and not cut or cut straight. Happens to all bars eventually and you have to grind your rails flat again or replace it even with good oil. Put a new bar and chain on and notice the difference.

I may need to upgrade to duckbill or I need a better base for it as I have no ground to bolt it to. I thought it would have been a lot easier since I used to work at a car dealership, but we used machines not these. I found videos on how to mount the tire without a stand and I followed their advice to get the tires on.

    At 8:33 that groove in the rim is called the "channel". It is midway across the rim (midway down in the position on the machine), it is about 4 inches wide (up and down in this position on the machine) and two inches deep (toward the shaft on the machine). As you lever the rod to pop up the bead, you MUST push as much of the rest of the bead into the channel (AHEAD of the bar pry point and all the way to the other side OPPOSITE of the pry point and any further if you can). You have to KEEP that leading bead pushed in the Channel as you push the bar around the shaft as it lifts the bead. It takes practice because the bead will "fight you" and want to pop up toward the rim lip. The whole idea is to keep as much of the bead as possible in the channel to give you plenty of SLACK at the the pry point to easily lift and pop the bead over the rim lip as you go around. Staring the rotation is the most difficult part because you need as much of the bead in the channel to get going, as more and more of the bead is lifted up over the lip as you go around, it gets easier. But keep that bead in the channel until the poped up portion of the bead is now providing slack for the opposite side. You are doing TWO critical and subtle operations at once (most people don't even see the subtle pushing of the bead into the channel because you can't see it (tires are not clear) - its all done by feel. Go slow and practice makes perfect. Once you master the technique, you will not need to lubricate the bead (which can cause corrosion and rim leaks if all moisture from the lubricant is not removed). Many people use lubricant when putting on (mounting) a tire and forget to COMPLETELY DRY off the bead, rim, and ANY water that gets inside the tire and rim. Any water (even a few drops) can cause corrosion and leaks. If you fail to keep the bead in the channel and force the pry bar, you will DAMAGE the bead and thus destroy the tire beyond use. Go slow, if it seems suck, DONT force it... back off and try again giving more attention to keeping the bead in the channel. Notice how many times I mentioned "bead in the channel"... that is what makes sucessful and easy tire mounting/unmounting possible.

    You must be a baby boomer. Either that, or you paid attention to something other than your fart phone at the tire shop. Most millennials and Gen Zers don't do that. That's why they can't operate good equipment to do something like this. You can take a tube type tire off the rim without one of those. Proof: I've done it multiple times with the front tires of my tractor. I put 70 patches on one of the tubes before finally changing it and putting Slime in the new tube. I didn't actually break it down 70 times, though. Sometimes, I'd fix 4 to 8 holes at a time. I was bush hogging, and those wild pear thorns would puncture my tires. Thanks for the video. I bought one of these changers but haven't used it yet. I'm trying to decide where to install it, so it won't be in the way.

    Ive tried the free fryer oil for a bit but found it was not a good lubricant for the saw.. didnt notice till winter when I had to switch back .. but the saw runs better and longer between sharpening and the bar lasts alot longer.. in the end bar oil is cheaper due to downtime and saw maintenance..

    I didn't realize that a tire could be removed without some air power assistance. The main thing I saw with that tool is that the base needs to be bigger so it don't wiggle so much. That movement will eventually pull your anchors out of the floor.
