Sounds like you are one of them guys as well, thank you
That’s what I’m use to splitting stringy wet oak! That box wedge and machine is a beast great combo
This is the ideal setup for selling quality wood! ❤️
Can’t wait to see your 40C when it’s available
Keep 'em coming Andrew. Can we get a maintenance tips and tricks video for new owners? Would be helpful to keep up on our investment. Thanks!!
Yep that would be a good one. Will try and get it in the next couple of weeks

Thanks for the feedback and support albert. Thanks some big wood. Hopefully we meet up sometime
Howdy neighbor. Grew up at the south end of the northway. Now an hour or so west.
Firewood and kindling all in one machine. 👍
Andrew, throw another iron in the fire and get the merch store up and running. Please!
YOU KNOW YOU HAD ME AT HELLO. Very Nice
Lol thanks for the support dan. Really appreciate it
Thanks for helping Mike! That box wedge sure does make nice firewood.
He showed up at the wrong time lol. Thanks for all the feedback and support karl. It's very much appreciated
That splitter is a beast. Just a pleasure to operate. I guess cousin Mike won't be stopping in on a Sunday anymore. LOL. Cheers guys!
I wrangled him in pretty good. Thanks for the feedback and support gord
I bought a 9-16 with a box wedge for just this reason. 90% of my wood is this size and I run it all through the box wedge by myself. It’s super fast and easy compared to my old box store splitter. The only thing you have to watch out for is the return arm. If the piece of wood is over 32 or so inches round you can bend the return arm like I did. It’s an awesome setup.
Thanks for the feedback. I think I'm going to do a video on that just so guys are aware of it. Once I get down that far I will normally roll the round onto its edge.
Can you tell me how it bent the return arm? Just curious.
@@jeremygibbs6939 Yes. When pushing a large round, there is a piece of angle on the pull back arm to help support it. Those large rounds hit that angle iron when pushing blocks through. It bends the arm back over time. Any rounds over 32 inches or so you have to be careful with. I had to weld in some extra gussets for extra support.
@@wvwoodman9280 thank you for that informative response. I’ll try to watch out for that on my machine when it arrives.
Great teamwork! Awsome splitter!
Love the hill Billy music
Love the way it separates the kindling and that does replace 20 men splitting firewood
Love watching your wood splitter videos Andrew. Could watch big wood be split all day.
That box wedge sure does take the grunt work out of big wood
Thanks for all the support jason. Really appreciate it
Wow that’s what you call a log splitter they ain’t no toys can’t wait to save a bit and get myself one as France needs a log splitter like that as we only have toys over here good work guys keep making them wood eating machines 🏴🏴
Thanks colin. Did you ever get ahold of ian Gregory?
Splitter acted like there wasn't even ant wood in front of it.
Love the comment "heavy oak". That's like saying "wet water". I say there is about 2/3 of a face cord in that log.
Wish I could afford to buy one just like that one. Great job.
Love to see a online store, more exposure could be more sales.
Might be worth doing. Get asked about it alot.
I already talked to Gerry about some items
I've watched a bunch of your vids and tried not to subscribe. I did sub about 4-5 vids ago. I kept telling myself that I didn't need another subscription. Well, I couldn't help myself. Your splitters are the best hands down. Not to mention your customer support and the community you have built following you. Your blood and sweat has paid off ten fold.
My hats off to you.
Thanks for the feedback and support. really appreciate it.
Red oak is usually a pain to split. Your splitter with box wedge makes it look more like fun!
Its heavy stuff to work with. The box wedge make it a lot easier. Thanks for the feedback Steve
Hello Andrew good to see you at it ! This Machine is an Animal I don't think there is any wood that will stop it just a BEAST !! you should start selling some Eastonmade Merchandise for TEAM EASTONMADE it would sell Great !
Thanks tim. I might try and get some merchandise over the next couple of months. Thanks for all the support I really appreciate it
Great video! Thanks for showing how the splitter handles the big stuff. Those rounds must've been 32"-36" in diameter. The box wedge sure makes turning the big uglies into firewood look easy.
Thanks dave. I think you're right on with the size. Really appreciate all the support
Looks good guys! Cord an hour isn't too shabby for those big rounds.
Heavy stuff to work with. Thanks for all the support steve.
The box wedge did a nice job splitting that. It did not produce a lot of fines. White oak is worse than red oak. It is heavier and very stringy.
White oaks a different animal all together. We really don't get a lot of it up here. Great to hear from you roger. Looking forward to splitter wars
hi there that = 2 man hrs per cord . rounds to splitter split and stacked . i try to relate everything to cords per man hour to assess the real out put or cost of output . john
It doesn't take to many of those big lads to make up a cord.
that is a really nice designed splitter.
Thanks jim. Really appreciate the feedback
Love your machines they are the best
Thanks for the feedback and support. Really appreciate it
From first-hand experience, I can say you are ABSOLUTLY right.
I actually prefer running the bigger rounds to the smaller on the 22-28 with the box wedge. A LOT less handling. Let the machine do the work and just keep pumping out the wood!
Makes good sense. Thanks for all the support mike. Really appreciate it.
I Really like this beacuse you have to nice way explain how you very good if you speak tiny bit slower bite thank you.
After seeing buckin' billy ray rock the Axis vertical splitter with that big gnarly west coast firewood, I'd have to call it a draw with the box wedge on the 22-28 as to which did a faster/better job. I will say that cousin Mike and yourself did process a wee bit of firewood from your sample log.
It's pretty close. Especially with bucking Billy at the foot pedal!!!
Where's the merch? I want me one of those sweatshirts for wintertime!
Thinking about having a store online. Get asked a lot about it. I think you'll see it in the future. Just not sure if we what to throw another iron in the fire yet
You should include one with a splitter I ordered a ultra for spring would love a sweat shirt
I have a video request Andrew. I would like to see Jerry (with a “G”) splitting Elm with a maul and wedges. I think it would be useful for his sales pitches to customers, comparing manual splitting to Eastonmade splitting. 👍🏻
Hhahahahah I will run that by him and see what he says.
I saw Gerry push a wheelbarrow almost a mile with a 6 way wedge in it for a few beers.. Careful what wish for !!haha
Another great video guys👍🏻. What about a video of timed difference between 12-22 & 22-28 with a face cord...?
Yep I could do that. I have one for the 22-28. Just need to piece it together with the 12-22. I should still have the videos
Can you show some close up of your saw attachment for cutting firewood lengths? I know you said you can't find them anymore, but I can try to fabricate one.
Yep I will for sure
I googled firewood measuring stick and found Baileys Outdoor sells them in a 3 pack for 12.99. 14,16, and 18". Hope that helps.
that splitter looks and works like my timberwolf alfa -5
Coincidence maybe?
I can't wait to get it!!!!
Gonna make life a lot easier for you guys mike
What kind of lead time for a 12-22? I have a few points to get in line like a dump trailer, splitting location and a load of logs. If it’s profitable venture I would love to get into doing firewood as a side business. I do also have a possible buyer from a camp ground that might be interested in. Using me. Any tips?
@@S_man89 you would have ask Andrew that, as far they are out on build time and delivery but as far as is it being profitable yes but a lot does go into it. Lots of things can make it not profitable fast. Getting a Eastonmade 12-22 and a conveyor is a great investment in a firewood business but make sure you have a good demand and a better supply for that demand.
MJM Tree Service & Maintenance thanks. I figured I wouldn’t get the conveyor until I had the orders coming in where I needed the autoloading. We have a lot folks out here by me that burn wood for heat and pleasure. Bu most of the guys I see that sell it I don’t see a lot of them delivering it, it’s usually come and get it kind of thing. We also have a few koa camp grounds that I would reach out to and try and get a fire wood contract. Plus at my current employment I could inquire about selling from our store ( we sell building material) so we get a good selection of possible buyers guys for heat and the weekend folks for pleasure. During the summer our town is a tourist place so there are a lot of vacationers at their lake homes so I would like to offer something to compete with the “bundle of warmth most places sell” which in my opinion not very good wood. But thanks for listening to me. I love doing this kind of thing bucking rounds and splitting. 😁
How much does one of these machines cost? I think it's worth it
Can you do a video with the Axis splitting big green red oaks that size?
Dang. I was hoping it was the 12-22 busting these blocks. Need to see that in action more.
The first clip with the piece of maple was the 12-22. Had it all set up and realized it had a 5 way box wedge in it lol.
Just want to feel good about my purchase thats due in March
@@IronOakSawmill you wont be disappointed
If you are looking for some videos of the 12-22 check out hometown acres. Adam has a few videos of the 12-22 with the box wedge.
@@brandonpaul5712 watched all of them. Still looking for more. Thank you for the tip though.
My best guess is half cord
One cord.
Lots of wood
3/4 of a face to one full face.
Мрію про такий дровокол і собі мати!!!! Най ідеальніший дровокол в світі!!!!
I think dad should sell the champion and get a Easton made 😂
Lol tell harvey I said hello.
Sure will
Remember that ladies, Mike said he's not the most ambitious guy in the world. If you want a mediocre life, Mike just might be your man!
I know exactly! We call that a shit load, just sayin’. BTW, look how nice that box wedge splits that stuff.
I don’t cut enough wood to justify an Eastonmade, but I really enjoy the videos
No worries dave. Really appreciate the feedback and support regardless
Another great video. Would the lift on the Axis be able to pick up green rounds of this size/weight? Love your videos Andrew.
Yep no problems picking up big rounds. Thanks for the feedback and support tom. Really appreciate it
Including the logs that are already cut off? I estimate 1.5 face
How long do those bigger splits take to dry? Thanks much. GOD Bless
How does the 9-16 perform with a 5 way box wedge? That’d be good to see.
Dose that arm( that pulls wood back ) come with box wedge .
is cousin Mike the reefer smoker?
What length are you bucking the rounds to? I do mine at 18, big enough for a wood stove but not too big for a fireplace or fire pit. Is making them 16 worth the time of making more cuts?
We always do 16". Normally works out to even length pieces in 8' wood.
The splitting music starts at 7:40
Lol
One face cord
Which wood is the hardest in your region and if you have already tested it with this equipment?
Elms probably the worst. We have lots of videos of it if you look. Thanks for the feedback
I only subscribe to channels that record their videos in 16:9 aspect ratio ;)
Lol I knew what I was I'd give it a shot for you. I'm really handy with wrenches not so much a camera or computer.
@@EastonmadeWoodSplitters not sure about the new GoPros but I think all you have to do is go to settings > resolution> then tap the 4:3 in the upper right hand corner ... should toggle to 16:9.. boom done
@@AndreasvonT will give it a shot
I might have asked his in the past, but with a wait time how do you buy a machine? Is it like 25% down or something?
Normally take $500 down and then the balance before it ships. We are booking into may right now
Eastonmade Wood Splitters I’m glad that you’re that busy. I still see one of these in my future.
2 face is my guess
Face cord +
Glad to see that Mike has a place with you Andrew. As we both know, life has been a bit of a bitch to him.
Is that a husq 372xp?
Yes. Have had it for a couple of years. Seems to work well for me.
@@EastonmadeWoodSplitters yep. I have one too. Great saw. One of the best power to weight ratio saw ever made. Thx for your videos. Really enjoy them. Your splitters seem top notch.
@@aj12271 thanks for the feedback and support. It's very much appreciated
I mean oak is a solid wood I agree, but here in Michigan all trees are not phone poles. We're are the Ys, crotchs an the knotty pieces to show how it really functions in a realistic environment. No log ever gets stuck on that machine? Come on bro. We move ALOT of firewood. Your telling me there are no situations with this machine were a log is jammed? I have a hard time believing it. We run 3 machines all day 5 days a week. This machine is flawless? Be fair to the real working man.
I'm guessing 60 cubic feet just shy of a half cord
