- A lot of other manufacturers are putting autocycle onto their splitters. A lot of them have adapted the log cradle design. That's fantastic!!! Here's what sets Eastonmade apart in a sea of different options.

Like they say time is money and if you make enough money you can enjoy your time. Your point is well taken. Cheers
Love the big pusher and the auto cycle!
Thanks for the feedback and support don. Really appreciate you taking the time out of tour day and watching the video
Just ordered my 22-28 this morning! Needless to say I cannot wait to get it! Gerry was very helpful and even more entertaining!!!
The log cradle is the heart and soul of this setup it makes loading the machine effortless I love the cradle ! if the table lift is loaded you can roll the wood in and it basically loads itself the wood stops right where it should it is an excellent well thought out design and a wicked time saver . The biggest thing is getting the wood to it Great VID Andrew
Thanks for all the feedback and support time. Always great to hear from you.
Love the auto cycle. If you want to get more product for your time. 💪
I've had my 12-22 for a year and a half and have not a single regret. I think Andrew makes the best splitters on the market. ;-)) shalom/gw.
Yup! A winning combination Andrew.... I've Gotta' keep feeding the piggy bank first. You are up high on my list.
Thanks for all the feedback and support. Really appreciate you taking the time out of your day to watch the video. Let me know if I can help in any way
Andrew I only have a cheap splitter but have watched a ton of videos from a lot of manufacturers. There's nothing wrong with saying you have one of the best on the market. When the time comes I'll be buying one of yours. You have a passion for what you do and want to be the best from what I see.
Thanks for all the feedback and support chris. I really appreciate you taking the time out of your day to watch the video.
I agree. The cradle is very important in holding and centering the wood while I pick up the next piece. They are very sturdy. I haven’t worn it out or damaged them after 1.5 years of heavy use and believe me, I put some heavy pieces through that machine and the cradles handled it. Nice video!
Thanks for all the feedback and support karl. I really appreciate it.
You’re so right! The cradle and the auto-cycle are true time savers. Especially at the end of the day. Starting out I might have a few seconds to spare per cycle, but as time goes by I seem to slow down! Your machines are well thought out and user friendly.
Looks like fun can't wait to get my machine .
you're gonna love it!!!
Hi Andrew, the only thing I could think of would be a hook on the very top of the pusher plate, so you could attach a nylon strap to pull a stuck round (it's rare, but it happess) off the wedge. And maybe a detachable "nose wheel" and some way to make the splitter self-propelled. Other than that, my 12-22 is perfect! I already made a nosewheel that plugs into the drawbar attachment point. I can send a photo if you'd like. I use the nose wheel for moving the splitter around in the garage where I keep it. It won't ever see snow or rain. ;-)) shalom/gw
the 12-22 is just a damn beast. Thanks for the vid (Matt)
Thanks for all the feedback and support matt. Really appreciate you taking the time out of your day to watch the video
That particular machine is fantastic, plenty of power and with a both way auto cycle, super quick.
Thanks for the feedback and support steve. Really appreciate it
Hi Andrew, I've had my 12-22 for a year and a half. I was using it today. I wouldn't trade it for any other machine on the market. In my opinion it is the Rolls Royce of wood splitters. Thanks again for producing such an excellet product! And please say hello to all the folks at Eastonmade for me. Shalom/gw
The design of your splitter was the main reason I went with Eastonmade. Galtec was one, the compact design of a monster like the 22-28 was one, the shear strength and stability of the stand of the splitter is another. It doesn't move when you pick up a king kong log. The splitter is made for commercial beating and keeps on splitting. When that pump second stage kicks down and pushes that massive piston and push plate to split some of the ugliest logs and turn it into firewood grade product without failure over and over again is huge.
Thanks for the all the support mike. Really appreciate it
You're absolutely right. The log cradle is just one important feature of my 10-22 that made me buy it. I've been splitting wood for 50 years. I think you make the best machine on the market. Thanks! Shalom, gw
Thanks for all the feedback and support George. Really appreciate you taking the time and watching the video
Чудовий дровокол!!!!!! Найкращій в світі!!!!! Мрію і собі купити такий.
That is one mean machine I would love to have one of those
Thanks for the feedback and support jesse. Really appreciate you taking the time out of your day and watching the video
I really enjoy watching your videos like your shop video
If I didn't already have a processor and was 20 years younger that's the machine I would have.
Thanks for the feedback and support jim. Means the world to us
Finished a wonderful Thanksgiving meal with our small family - helped clean up - now the tryptophan is working. Great video about the best in the business.
Lol I always have a great nap after Turkey dinner. Thanks for all the support Marc. Really appreciate it!!!
I would love to demo one of these splitters I cannot believe how fast and efficient they r to work with it’s amazing 👍🏻👍🏻
Woo who. First like!! Great channel
Lol love this
I got to the vid when it was 3 minutes old was gonna be first but had to watch all of it then had to correct my spelling LOL i agree its a great channel
Morning Andrew. I love having that log cradle. Your machines were the first I have run with cradles and being able to drop a round into it, and have it instantly centre the log on it's own, is a big efficiency gain. Loved the auto-cycle too. So simple - drop the round, hit the lever and turn to grab the next round. Repeat. Couldn't be easier (unless I got someone else to do it. LOL!) Cheers!
Lol thanks for all the support gord. Really appreciate it
Happy Thanksgiving, you have a conveyor to remove the wood, now with that splitter you need an load conveyor or an auto loader. Awesome machine
Thanks for the feedback andy. I wish I could keep a conveyor here for myself!!! Have one coming up on the build list with Eastonmades name on it lol. Really appreciate you taking the time to watch the video.
These machine are awesome. I can tell you from experience if to people are running this machine the person fetching the wood has a hard time keeping up the tuner. The cradle and big pusher makes it great big and small pieces. Andrew thanks for building suck an awesome machine!!
Thanks for all the feedback and support mike. It's very much appreciated
Happy thanksgiving to you and your family..
Thanks justin. Really appreciate the feedback and support
That thing eats wood like I fillet fish! 😁👍
Lol thanks for the feedback and support ray. Really appreciate it
I like theses video’s over the axis ones because I always would split differently and find myself saying saying things out loud to get them the run it differently
Lol thanks for all the feedback and support adam. Really appreciate it
I’ve always thought that the auto cycle is awesome and I really like the adjustable wedge you were kicking ass nice job.
Thanks for the feedback and support rider. Really appreciate you taking the time out of day and watching the video. Means the world to us
@@EastonmadeWoodSplitters I’ll make a video of the woodsplitter I’m getting built it’s a beast has a 4 cylinder motor and rollers
Beautiful machine.
Thanks tom. Really appreciate you taking the time out of your day to watch the video
100% on board with that. TIME = MONEY.
thanks for the feedback and support scott
That is an amazing machine . I saw the one you gave Billy after a utube search of "best log splitter " . I'm gonna save for while and buy one cash . when I'm closer to having the funds I'll call and talk buisness . 👍👍
let us know when you're ready!!!
Auto Cycle is for sure differential feature (thumbs up)
Firesplitter :)
That’s so true Andrew auto is the way forward and that pusher would push a house down keep up the good work love them bloody machines 🏴🇫🇷👍🏻
Thanks for all the feedback and support colin. Really appreciate you taking the time to watch the video
Never had a conversation with a guy on TH-cam, let alone you read my mind haha. Great video love the splitter.
Lol glad to be the first. Really appreciate the feedback and support.
One day I will have one! Best built unit I have seen
Love that machine! Auto cycle and log cradle is great 👍
Thanks for the feedback and support richard. Really appreciate you taking the time to watch the video
hi there you guys sure do make nice machines . still not sold on the pickaroon . you still pick the log up the same amount just your starting and ending points change . you use effort in stabing it and releasing it . time for the table no more back and forth to the wood pile . but you are feeding it about as fast as it can eat . its a good splitter john
Biggest thing it saves is the motion in your back. I would hardly be able to walk if I worked without it for a couple of hours. Really appreciate the feedback and support.
@@EastonmadeWoodSplitters have you put any more thought in to the table idea john
Good machine..
Thanks for the feedback and support Oliver. Really appreciate it
From someone that splits his wood by and and usually by my self an auto cycle and loading arm would be so helpful. The speed and efficiency you can achieve makes more wood and gives you the ability to get ahead of the demand. I’m leaning toward the 9-16 with the 4 and 6 way wedge. It’s plenty fast for me and it would cover almost any size logs that I might get dropped off until buying log trucks becomes a cost effective good choice.
The 9-16 works really nice. Thanks for all feedback and support seth. Really appreciate you taking the time and watching the video
@@EastonmadeWoodSplitters my pleasure it gives me something to look forward to. I hope someday I’ll have one of these machines but currently I’m way to small for this size of a purchase. I’ll probably get a dump trailer first then a powered splitter unless the dam and for the wood can justify the cost of one. Thanks for the videos!
Love the set-up. Maybe one day I will have one.
Thanks for the feedback and support jimmy. Really appreciate you taking th time to watch the video
SUPER !!!! 💪💪💪
Hey Andrew I like the auto cycle, time is one thing, but your hand being nowhere near the splitter in a dangerous area is just as important. Good quality product from North of the 49 th is a bonus. Keep safe my friend
Thanks for all the feedback and support Gerry. That's my thoughts on it to. Absolutely no need to be near the wedge. Really appreciate you taking the time out of your day to watch the video.
New subscriber. That’s one of the best small version wood splitters I’ve seen.
Awesome machine! Had to watch twice! Just phenomenal!
Thanks for the feedback and support Judd. Really appreciate you taking the time to watch the video twice
The speed of these splitters is unbelievable. Your Grandfather Sweeney, great Grandfather Stroud and your Uncle Rene, all had splitters that were built by Gordon McLellan. They were top of the line at that time. But they were slower than molasses in January. This system of yours is super fast.
Thanks for all the support ken. Norm still has his gordie up in folger. They sure do stand the test of time!!!
Happy Thanksgiving. I have a residential log splitter the reason I got it was the log cradle. I would have loved to be able to afford one of your splitters.
The log cradles are sure nice to have. Thanks for taking the time out of your day and watching the video and leaving some feedback. Its very much appreciated
Great video!!!! love watching your Machines at work.
Thanks for the feedback and support caleb. Really appreciate you taking the time to watch the video.
Another great video Andrew. That 12-22 makes wood spitting seem so effortless. Of all your videos I have watched, I believe this is the first video you actually wear gloves while splitting. Have a great weekend.
Thanks for the feedback and support tom. It was a touch to cold not to wear the gloves.
He has to cover his hands of Steel! lol!!
Great splitter, the large pusher and the auto cycle makes the difference..
It does help out a lot. Thanks for all the feedback and support dave. Really appreciate it.
Another great video and that is one great splitter i think it is perfect the only thing I would like to see is a little longer table 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for the feedback and support wood chuck man. We can make anything happen!!!
It is like owning a Bentley but unfortunately very few of us ever will great machine!!!!
Lol Well I guess sort of. Thanks for the feedback and support. It's very much appreciated
I want that splitter with the same features! It's great!!
What is the price for that splitter??
@@richardoegleton7582 I am not quite sure but I'm sure it is north of 20 grand
Amazing machine!
Don't know it is, but I enjoy watching wood getting split.
Nice machine.
Thanks for the feedback steven. I'll keep putting videos out for you. Really appreciate the support
Just wishing I had the property to use one from you.
No such luck.
about to release the Krakin lol almost caught up =)
Lol no worries. Have been keeping up with the channel. I've been trying to get ready for winter to. Thanks for all the support doug. Really appreciate it.
I think it’s freakin awesome!!!
Thanks for the feedback and support. really appreciate it.
It is the best I want to get one from my machine or get one of your machines either way crazy old fart from Connecticut
Lol always great to hear from you!!!
Nice setup super fast 👍👍
Thanks for the feedback and support vern. Really appreciate you taking the time to watch the video
What a beast!
It works well. Thanks for the feedback and support william. Really appreciate you taking the time out of your day to watch the video
love it ! need one !
Perfection 👌🏽! Eastonmade 💪🏽
Thanks maxair. Really appreciate all the feedback and support
@@EastonmadeWoodSplitters anytime Andrew. Btw I'm Max. Have a great day 👍🏽
Very nice!!
Would love to see you guys putting on an hour meter on your vanguard engines. 20k for a 22-28 (delivered and with a box wedge) that doesn't include a 20dollar hour meter is very dissapointing.
Also like to see a fuel Guage on your 37D. I am considering one of those two and those are the only two items I see as lacking which other competitors have. Thanks as always
We dont put it on for the simple fact that they can easily be removed. Would hate to see a 4 year old machine with 3 hours on it pounded up
Looks great!
Thanks alan. Really appreciate the feedback and support
Really like your splitters, looks like they really get the job done. We split a bunch of really challenging wood like post oak, cherry, sycamore and wonder how you think it would work. Some of our pieces are 24-36 inches in diameter and can be a real struggle.
We currently use a 3 point hydraulic splitter that does a decent job but requires you to pick up each piece several times to get it chopped down to size.
i really want one of these but being on a limited in come i will need to figure out how i can get one do you offer financing
I only help friends who have a log splitter. One thing I notice even on your videos. Sometimes the logs don’t get pushed through enough to split them all the way. The nubs on the push plate why can’t those be a couple inches longer to push them through the wedges? I’m just curious
We could do something like that, but in most cases you have another piece of wood that will finish the split. Thanks for all the feedback and support kurt. Really appreciate it
Agree That would stop fighting with the strings sometimes your not sending another piece of wood to cut that string. Andrew going have to make a few prototypes with this feed back lol
The auto cycle feature, in my opinion, is equivalent to having another guy helping you to load firewood rounds onto the machine.
It is for sure. Just like a second set of hands. Really appreciate all the feedback and support
No Way In Heck, I am going to be able to keep up with That machine, I Love It. Axis is still higher on my wish list. A Box Blade that is for smoker wood 3" x 3" or smaller for my needs, would be Ideal. Just My Opinion.
Different strokes for different folks. Thanks for the feedback and support jeff. Really appreciate you taking the time to watch the video
Genius! One man operation made easy!
It works slick. Thanks for all the feedback and support. Really great to hear from hou
I'll have to say that is flat out chopping some wood. Good point about having to hold the rounds in place.
Thanks for the feedback and support. Really appreciate you taking the time to watch the video
🆗 Machine. 👍👍👋
Andrew. From over 27 years of 'listening' to sales people, I put the most value in the sales person that 'sells his product' and does not 'instead sell, the other guy's product'. Meaning: 1 show me, 2 tell me, and 3 explain why Easton does/has a certain feature and leave the other guys out of the conversation. Then let me go look at the other guy's to see if they have that feature. Like your explanation of the pusher. Show me the double/triple support (I saw a picture). Tell me why it is important (which you did, great). But instead of just explaining the 'bending force', demo it to me so I can 'fully' appreciate the feature. Then I can look for that feature in a other guys unit (if it is there and if I want to). Just a thought from someone listening to a salesman.
Thanks for taking the time to watch the video and leave some feedback. Really appreciate you taking the time out of your day to do so.
nice
That is an awesome wood splitter! What model is that one? I would believe that the log lift would need some improvements like a folding table lift for easier transporting!
The splitter is awesome. There are a few tiny things I would change if I ever made. I'll never make 1 so it's a moot point though.
What I was wondering is if the pickaroon would work if you drive it into the side grain at right angles rather than into the end grain. If that works that could save you another 1/2s per block.
#halfsecondsmatter
It does work using it that way but I dont find it hooks quite as good. Thanks for all the feedback and support alan. Really appreciate you taking the time to watch the video
Love the log cradle and the auto cycle but what is the machine???
Andrew, as you may know I have your 9-16. The only thing I needed was a strip of semi retread on the pusher plate that stop alot of the pulling apart of the real string woods. I would like your opinion on people who have a set number of pieces like 500 per cord of wood. After 20 some odd years in & out of the business. My cousin Jason runs the day to day an he just points at the sing on the wall, with 4'x4'x8"=128 cu. ft. We thing its all the TH-cam & IBC totes. Please excuse me for my very odd sense of humor.
Lol there is a lot of different ways of doing things.
Hi Andrew!!😀😀
That is definitely a fast splitter with the auto cycle on it. I also love the large pusher plate.
Have you by any chance considered putting a taller push plate on the ultra?? When I watch the ultra being run the pusher is so short that the larger blocks like to flip back instead of going through the wedge. If it was as tall as the wedge is at its lowest setting it wouldn't do it. That's my thought and feedback!!😀😀
Take care my friend!!😀😀
Logger Al
Thanks al. Really appreciate you watching the videos. The biggest reason is safety because you have to hold the block of wood. If you watch it's almost impossible to pinch your fingers.
@@EastonmadeWoodSplitters But it's not your fault if the operator pinches their hands. No matter how you build it someone is going to pinch their hand because they shouldn't be running one anyway.
@@rogerl8488 :) I don't own one and won't buy the ultra because of just that one simple problem. If I were to buy one the very first thing I would do is make the pusher plate taller myself. I have everything needed to fab it up in my own shop.
I'm not in the market for a splitter anyway.
I do believe that the splitter itself is a very good quality machine!!
anymore information about the raffle ?
Ya it’d be great to know unfortunately I cannot afford a high end splitter like this and am stuck it’s hard to build yourself up from nothing and a raffle to have a chance at climbing the ladder of life a little faster would really be a life changer for me
Still working with my lawyers to see what we need to do. Hopefully get some answers tomorrow
How long of wait time to get one those splitters. And can you tell me the price please sir thank you I enjoy watching you split wood. Way up there. I live in east texas
Yes i like your new video you did a really good jop can make a video off your wood stove some time buddy you ddid a really good jop today buddy
Thanks travis. Really appreciate the feedback and support
I don’t sell wood but I burn it in my out door stove but it would be nice to have one, my age is catching up with me but my Heath is still good not ready to stop. The ultra would be nice but a log lift and a big push plate would be great.
Either machine would work for that application. The log lift is really handy. Thanks for the feedback and support hank. Really appreciate you taking the time and watching the video
You mentioned adjusting the setting on the detent. How do you decide where to set it? I think I've heard you say in another video it's about 30 percent. Is there a reason you don't just set it as high as you can when you build the machines? Just curious.
We set it lower just for a safety. Theres really not a lot to go wrong with the machines but if you set it high it will push a piece of wood through it sideways. Thanks for the feedback and support. Really appreciate you taking the time to watch the video
Whats the biggest wedge you recommend for the 12-22 if your doing log loads not tree service nasty wood. Majority is 8-18" straight hardwoods.
6 way or the box wedge would work best for it
Red elm work good though a box wedge, 12/22.
Rather than a sorting "table", could ou offer something a little longer and like grizzly bars? As fast as the machine is, you really need a conveyor to get the most out of it....I'm a man operation. Having some of the junk/bark bits fall out before the splits get to the pile would be great.
We have done them like then when requested. They are awfully heavy and awkward though.
Yes, the one one my current set up is effective.....but weighs a butt load. The only plus is the machine rarely moves from its current location and if needed, I valve a mini skid steer for muscle.
@@wirthwhileproperty no reason it wouldn't work in that application then. Thanks for taking the time to leave some feedback and watch the video. Really appreciate it
Good point but I would think they sell themselves when you compare the competition. I never saw what was special about Timberwolf.
You are the epitome of not f’in around.
I think the auto cycle should be standard on all splitters
It sure is handy. Really appreciate the feedback and support.
Cookie cutter solutions are not the spice of life. I like options to make anything your own.
What length pickeroon do you use? Why did you choose this length? I’m 5’9” would you recommend the same length for me? Thanks
I think its 36". I'm 6'3" if that helps any
Hi Andrew, another great video, thanks.
I'm sorry, I can't improve on your perfection, but I know you can help me, as you have in the past. Just two questions, are those Galtech valves, are they the Q95s, and do you run Q95's on the 22-28?
Also, do you now run a wheel on your ring lifter instead of just pining the top of the ram to the tray, and if so, what's the advantage? Thanks.
We run a q130 for autocycle on all the machines. We have always run a wheel on the log lift. If there is a physical connection the log lift would lift the machine everytime it went down. Thanks for taking the time to watch the video. Really appreciate it
@@EastonmadeWoodSplitters Thanks for your kind answer sir, and no problem, I've subbed. Can I ask where you buy the the Q130's please? I was told by my supplier (here in New Zealand) that they were no longer available. Also, what size dump valve do you use (what literage/US GPM)?
@@SeriousSchitt I dont think you would be able to get the q130 setup like that. They should be exclusive to us now. Dump valves 120lpm
@@EastonmadeWoodSplitters Oh, ok Andrew, thanks so much for your response and for letting me know. I can now see why your machines cycle so quickly with those big rams. Have a great day and post more vids, thank you.
I have a timberwolf alpha 6 and seriously think of trying something different , can you run a box wedge or a six way wedge?
Yes can run a 4,6 and box wedge with the 12-22. The 8 way and 12 way are available for the 22-28
How do I buy one of those
What is the stick called that you are grabbing the wood with?
Pickaroon
what model is this one
i want one cost to Van is BC
This is a 12-22. $13,000 CAD $2000 to get it to Vancouver
How much to ship it to texas?
Is there any way to do an auto feature on a box wedge set up so you can feed through big wood on repeat?
Probably could, but not interested in do it for safety reasons
@@EastonmadeWoodSplitters I would have the same concern, but it would be cool!
@@tstep522 it would be for sure!!!
There's this particular machine work with a conveyor I should firewood to several different states by semi trailers am I have to load them with a conveyor and it's fast is that splitter works you can just load a semi trailer right off of it if you split it
Yes. It works really well with a conveyor. We do have a bunch of videos of it if you check out our channel. Thanks for the feedback. Really appreciate you taking the time out of your day to watch the video
What was the tool you used to pick up the wood with? Ive never seen one
It's a pickaroon
