    we sell all of our shavings to local farmers who use them for horses, chickens, gardens etc. I sell my bags (22" x 36") for $7.00 each or 10 for $60.00. It pays for the gas for my processor. Can't keep them on my lot. To fill the bags I use a metal horse scoop, works like a charm. I process the shavings right into my tractor bucket and fill the bags as I go. Thanks for another awesome video my friend.

    You should make some Firestarter with the saw dust. Mix some diesel and the dust and package in smaller bags and sale 2 dollars a bag. You can give complimentary starter kits for new customers

    Thank you Kenny, Sarah and Chris for a pleasant evening of splitting wood.
    Sawdust course is good for the chickens, when you change it will have a good mix of waste mixed in for the compost pile.
    Hope your all back again tomorrow 😀🇦🇺

    Good morning Chris!!😀😀
    Those ash trees that grow out in the open really split hard. But it does make nice firewood.
    Might have to take the gland off the rod and replace the O ring that seals it. I've had that happen more than once and the only way to get it to stop leaking is to replace it.
    It's not a big job to replace it on your cylinder. Just have to take the pusher off and unscrew the gland enough to get the old one out and slip the new one on and tighten it down really tight with a big pipe wrench.
    It's always nice to have good help splitting wood.
    Take care my friends!!😀😀👍👍

    You may want to look at heat log production which is made just with wood shavings and saw dust. In the UK they are getting popular due to small storage requirements and its a waste product that usually has very low moisture so better for the environment and the chimney. The first guy I get mine from was making £5000 a year from his heat logs. The machine cost him £5000 to buy so payback was very short

    Sharpen your splitter blade to 14 degrees on both sides. It will make smoother cuts. Most knots and crotches will cut straight through. My homemade splitter is 14 degrees on both sides with a 1/32" flat face cutter edge. I can tell from watching this video, compared to my splitter, you will be impressed with the improvement. Our local votec school machine shop class sharpened mine for free. I enjoy your vids.

    Hey Chris, nice team today. I’ll have to watch out for that cylinder issue on my 12-22. I’ve had a few leaks already. Some from loosening nuts from vibrations and one from a bad o-ring. I’ve noticed a few o-rings were a bit thin so as I replace them as I go with a thicker one and that seems to help. I’m sure you’ll find that o-ring on your cylinder may be shot since you noticed it late and tightened it after it was well backed off. No worries, we all have to learn from experience with our new equipment. I love these Eastonmade machines. Any info I can offer I will always give you as you have helped me and so many others out here. Keep it up brother!!
    I’m on vacation with my wife right now in Shelter Island, NY and on our drive out here I saw a beautiful tree with a huge spread. I’m not sure the type, but I’ll see if she’ll let me stop on our way home to get a pic for you. It was a nice tree. Even she agreed 😳. Lol

    Firewood brings families closer together. Especially when it's cold! My son dropped by to help me split the massive pile of White Oak while I sawed up a 30 in. Cherry tree that came out of an ancient graveyard.
    I had 3 of the 9 ft. Logs in the bed of my F250 V 10 Trident. It squatted pretty good but toted the load! We worked til midnight with our head lights. I tried to warn him that what I do is very addictive!

I had a hopper that ould held 35, forty gallon bags of sawdust and I filled it once a week and he came and got it. I always had to make sure there was NO walnut in it. Best horse bedding as it won't breakdown like straw and you never had mud. I worked out of my house and could not have a big dumpster. I lived in the heart of Phoenix, residential.

  • @flatoutintop23
    @flatoutintop23 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Just as a suggestion (but might not fit with how you do things):
    When we get to crotches we cut as close to the Y top and bottom, as straight as possible, and then often cut it in half again, effectively making a couple extra “thinner” discs of crotch.
    It does mean you have some odd sizes, but they either split much easier as they’re such short rounds, or if the branches are small enough they go straight on the fire!
    Splitting crotches at full log length is a PITA!! 👍

    Sawdust: do 'Pay As You Feel'. You may be surprised how much folks give you for a bag.
    I use a 'guided PAYF' for my gardening and composting work - I suggest a 20kg sack of mature, hand-sorted food waste compost would be between £10 and £20 - and loads of people give me £20 !!! So if you say a big sack of premium sawdust (ie, all uniform size, and fresh) is between one and ten dollars, 'You Decide', quite a few folks will give you $20 for 4, I'm guessing. Try it.

    On moving IBCs I have seen people with a standard bucket if you can get one side into the bucket and then use a rope/ratchet strap on the top to stop the IBC tilting forwards as you lift it.
    I would get nervous if you had 2 tones of honey in the IBC but saw dust would not weigh that much,

    Just food for though should build yourself a little truff to attach to your woodchip bin to attach the bags to fill them.

      @@InTheWoodyard could make it out of aluminum or wood. Unless it doesn't take to long to fill a bag. A 5gal bucket wouldn't be to bad either to load up and pour in a bag. Work smarter not hard, good idea on using those bins smarter then what I have seen people use them for.
