Good morning y'all

Well, I ended up picking up a wood splitter.
It is a just like the one my dad has.
A guy bought it to bend frames for boat trailers, but then was able to repair his old one. This one was brand new but never used.
It appears it's biggest weakness is oil cooling...
Only time will tell how long it takes for fatigue to become an issue, but otherwise it does the job fine for now.
Everything I am putting through it is on the tough side. We had already split everything we could by hand.

Lotsa wood to heat the outhouse, but where is the TP?

I hope that gets rebuilt better than before and all covered by the insurance.

So far we’ve been treated very well by the insurance company.

Just heard from the adjuster. The fire inspector could not determine the cause of the fire. Only that it started in a certain area.
Yesterday the first clean up crew spent the day going through the house bagging up all the clothing, bedding, etc to be sent off for cleaning and storage until the house is finished.
Now maybe we can get started on fixing this thing.

Hope it ends up better than before

No TP, but it's the warmest outhouse around...

No thanks. Guess I'll bring my own and no I won't be sharing with you.

Hope everyone has a good weekend.

You can’t hardly kill those splitters..

It’ll never be fast or impressive, but one thing I can say, is companies have made so many of that style, they have pretty much perfected it as far as breakage.
And price point manufacturing,.

The Speeco 22 ton I started with is still alive and running on all the same parts it had when I bought it 15 years ago.

Well, according to lore on this thread; you clearly haven’t let @Hinerman use it then…

He’d never want to use it...

For the same reason he has never tore up someone’s McCinderblock..

Yup! I have decided to tell the story of the time he dropped my anvil on his foot. His foot was fine but my anvil shattered into thousands of pieces. What a mess that was.
I can neither confirm nor deny this story. Just adding to the lore.

Morning fellas! Finally, we're getting something. Calling for 3-6" and I bet we have 3 already. Of course it happens on the day my saw was supposed to show up and now the mail may not show, but that's alright.
