You both held up smaller pieces when resplitting. I have not been doing that. By you doing that you make less waste by not having all those splinters. Now I will try that with our Brute Force 20-24 log lift Autocyvle. Someday Chris I will have to bring to your place. Keep up the great entertainment and training for those of us that pay attention while at our day job. 😀

I see a lot of comparison videos. It would be nice to see a spec check video. It's hard to believe this is rated for the tonnage stated vs the big box store/ farm supply store rated splitters. I'd love to see someone with a way of testing the amount of force these are actually putting out. What I mean is it seems like this one should be rated much higher than the 25- 30 ton ones I've used.

My ultra was about $5500 shipped with the optional single wedge. I absolutely love it. I have a fabricator buddy thats going to fab up a log lift for me and then it will be the perfect rig. This brute force would have been exactly what i was looking for, but its a bit pricey. Worth the money though!

Maybe ....but box wedges produce a lot of waste!!!

Being vertically challenged the valve height, along with the bunk height would be an issue when wrestling large rounds, the single wedge position creates a lot of garbage not going completely flat to the beam. Manufacture location, shorter lead time and the log lift are all pluses over the Ultra. IMHO

QUESTION: Like everyone else we have a access to LOTS OF ASH. Once split and dried how many years can a guy store it without it going bad for some reason? I am looking for a LONG TERM storage solution . I transfer it inside a shed for storage before burning it, but will not have enough room for the amount I will have. I am considering maybe a shipping container and stuffing it full of dry wood. Would it keep indefinitely in there or would the fact it would be so enclosed and get pretty hot be a bad thing? Any suggestions for long term storage would be appreciated! :-) Thank you.

I also have access to more ash that I can ever use. It will rot before I can use it all. My solution is to split it and sell it, easier to store money than wood. I bought a band mill thinking that I would cut it and sell the lumber. Too many Amish mills around me for that to work so the mill sits. For long term storage I think I would consider stacking rounds inside or even logs but max diameter of 10" to make sure it dries rather than rots.
