Thanks Dan! I appreciate that! It’s good to be back and contributing to the community again. I have more content, I just gotta make videos out of it haha. I appreciate your words and for watching! More to come!
Thanks Jeffrey! I appreciate your support of the channel and I’m glad you’re liking the content. I’m going to try to produce more this season. Thanks again!
Nice job Dash,glad to see you are still suckin' air and taking nourishment lol,I was hoping you were doing well! Come on back a little more often,I really enjoy your content buddy. Thanks for posting
Thanks Jim! I’m still above ground and still kickin a** lol. I appreciate your comments and support! I’m going to make an effort to post some more videos again 👍
Good clip! Welcome back about time! I am confused though why you ran the hydraulics the way you did. It makes no sense. Why isn't it connected to the valve assembly on the machine? Just don't understand why you didn't connect it like they would at the JD dealer. Need a longer stroke. Cheers from Canada
Thank you! I appreciate the welcome back! The reason I plumped it up to the loader connections is because I dont have any rear SCV or power beyond kit installed. I never purchased my 1025 with a backhoe, and I never installed any aftermarket rear ports. So I'm currently limited to the closest ports available, which is the loader ports. I plugged them in on the curl function side so I still have raise and lower function which allows me to still move around.
Really nice job! Sounds like you are running wide open on the throttle, is the cycle time okay? It looks good to me. The pressure looks good as well. Are the specs in the video description? I may try to build this for my 1025r. I had been wondering if the loader ports would work okay in this application. Thanks a bunch for sharing!
Hey Jim! Thank you! I figured I would get questions on specs and I want to provide them for anyone who might want to build their own. I plan on doing a follow up video where I talk about the mistakes I made, what I would change, and all the dimensions for this build. I’m hoping to have it posted to TH-cam by this weekend. I’ve run it at many different RPMs to see what works best. These 1025’s don’t have a lot of flow so unfortunately to get better performance I have to crank the RPMs. The larger the diameter of the cylinder, the slower it will be. The one I ended up using in the video is a 3” cylinder and the speed is good for me between half and wide open throttle. Depends on how fast I feel like working haha.
Dash, thanks a bunch! The flow and cylinder size ratio makes sense. I'll be looking for the video. Don't loose the Cad drawings for the parts, I may be needing to have some parts cut! Jim
Great splitter. What GPH hydraulic flow does the tractor have ? That’s to best way to paint, I’ve found. Seems the more fussing you do prepare and paint, the worse the outcome some times. It’s a wood splitter. It’s gunna get scratched up, for sure. Great job. Been a while, hopefully you can get back at the makin videos. Have a great day.
Thanks, Noel! I appreciate it! I believe the hydraulic flow for a stock 1025r is 3.5gpm at the pump (which is not much). Im not entirely sure if that's the same flow at the ports, since I think some of the flow is dedicated to steering and transmission, while the other portion is used to control the loader and other hydraulic connections. And I agree with the paint, I found this is the simplest and most effective way. Im mainly looking for color and rust protection, I'm not too focused on how it looks!
Lol I know buddy, I’m hoping to get back to making videos again. Life gets so busy it hasn’t been on my priority list. But I have some good content, I just need to make videos out of it! I appreciate you watching 🙏
Hi Larry and Robin! Greetings back at you from North Dakota! These 1025’s are great little machines, though they certainly have some limitations. Thanks for subscribing! I hope you enjoy the channel! 🙏👍🚜🪵🇺🇸
Buddy.... You're back! You're part of the reason I've got a 1025r heading my way. Your vids are awesome!
Thanks Dan! I appreciate that! It’s good to be back and contributing to the community again. I have more content, I just gotta make videos out of it haha. I appreciate your words and for watching! More to come!
Another small channel here - glad to see you back posting and I know how much work it is to put together a video like that....thanks!
Right on I appreciate the welcome back! I just checked out your channel and you have some great videos, I just subbed! Keep up the good work!
Nice Video. I have watched them all. Good to see you have made another one. I will keep my eye out for the next one.
Thanks Jeffrey! I appreciate your support of the channel and I’m glad you’re liking the content. I’m going to try to produce more this season. Thanks again!
Well hello Dash. You did a great job on the log splitter. It's good to see you again.
Thank you, Bob! It’s great to be back, I missed you guys lol. It was a fun project, I’ve always wanted to build one. They’re will be more to come!
Nice job Dash,glad to see you are still suckin' air and taking nourishment lol,I was hoping you were doing well! Come on back a little more often,I really enjoy your content buddy. Thanks for posting

Great to see you back. Greetings from Northern VA as well!
Thanks, Drew! I appreciate it! Greetings from warm and balmy North Dakota!
Nice to see you again Dash. Great video, don’t stay away so long next video!
Thank you I appreciate that! It’s good to be back. I’ll have more content coming soon. Thanks for watching! 🙏
Nice job! Welcome back!
Right on! Thanks, Jack! I appreciate it!
Good clip!

Too bad you didn't have a control valve laying around so you could have operated it off the power-beyond. Great build... glad you're back!
I know right! I wish I had a control valve to add to it. Thanks for the warm welcome back, I sure appreciate it! 🙏👍

How are you speed up cycle times?

Hello from Northern Virginia, just subscribed, we had a 1025r, great machine just a little small for our farm🚜🪵👍🏼🇺🇸
