    Wonderful and beautiful work, Adrian, I am Salah from Morocco, North Africa. I follow all your work on a farm and I like the way you work because you are creative. While I am on the verge of a project to raise dairy cows, and I hope to activate my Arabic translation so that we can benefit more. Thank you, my friend Adrian

      Paddy Gun: I think that I first saw Adrian during the bale off challenge year before last. I was impressed. Mind you, I went to parochial school taught be Irish nuns in Florida, USA, so I have always been intrigued by and to know more about Ireland. Adrian captivated me. He explains himself so well. It is more than just entertainment; I am learning about dairy farming, farm maintenance, tractor repair, cameras, motors, filters, welding, clamps, liming fields... I always look forward to the next video. It is a real learning opportunity and so well explained--100k for sure.

    That's a great log splitter. I think the stainless is over kill tho. The top plate would never rust away. Any rust would only be a light surface rust. But it's certainly a fast well built machine.

      Hi there. Yes the stoves over here are a good bit smaller than the states. I harvest a lot of hardwood, Ash, beech mostly. My stoves take logs around 11 inches long but I don't split them any more than 4 inches thick. Main reason is our climate is so damp, zny thicker makes them harder to dry.

When I got my log splitter made, I asked for the table to be made a few inches higher and glad I did. They're a great job, cut though big knotty rings in no time that could take 20mins with an axe.

  • @staceyrashkin2609

    I'm from the States and I understood why you were cutting them small right from the start. You use more wood burning stoves and such in Ireland where in the United States we cut firewood for fireplaces. Your woodburning stoves are much more efficient so they burn smaller logs much slower.. Here in the States fireplaces are mostly decorative. Because we're stupid like that. Lol

  • @Mr.M1STER
    @Mr.M1STER 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    There is no doubt about it that splitter is a savage job. Makes life so much easier and makes light work of those logs. I personally split all my own stuff by hand with an axe because number 1, I can't afford a nice splitter like that and I don't have a tractor to put one on anyway and number 2, I like splitting sticks by hand. It is hard work but always worth it at the end of the day when there is a lovely pile of sticks in the shed. Swinging the axe is a great way to keep fit as well or so I like to tell myself.
