I'd settle for the hydraulics and wedges on a pull behind. :)

I sent the video to my dad. He sent me an email back saying that he had ordered one for his bobcat. I gotta send him more videos on neat stuff!

Kerrville, Texas. He might split a cord of wood a year and that much for about three of his neighbors.

He's got this "kid in a candy store" attitude lately. If he wants it he buys it. I'm just glad he likes wood spliters, tractors, saw mills, and reloading equipment and not "Bimbos"!

He's got all sorts of dodads for that bobcat. A shear, a blade, a bucket, a fork, and now this spitter is coming.

He saved all his life and is becoming a spendthrift now. I did it the other way around........His way was better.

I did a serch on the net, and the splitter ALONE is $43,600.
The seperator, and all other stuff is extra!!

Bill,

When I lived in northern Arkansas I cut and sold firewood for couple of years ... fairly big time for a one man operation. At one time I had firewood split and stacked on both sides of the road for 1/4mile. That's a lot of wood.

I split it all with one of these; stickler (http://cgi.ebay.com/THE-STICKLER-VEHICLE-POWERED-LOG-SPLITTER-WOOD-STOVE_W0QQitemZ130305249305QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_D efaultDomain_0?hash=item1e56cc5019&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1205%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C 240%3A1318%7C301%3A0%7C293%3A1%7C294%3A50)

Best splitter I ever used.

When I left and moved to Texas, I sold the splitter and have looked for another for years. Looks like I finally found it. :)

I'm happy as a bird with a french fry right now. :D

I called the Old Fart today and casually asked "Hey, you really going to buy one of those splitters?"

He laughs and laughs and laughs until it's not funny any more. Oh well, it was fun dreaming about it for a while.

I'm going to have to be more careful with that guy from now on, he's getting ornery in his old age!
