Takes a few rounds to get used to it for sure. Thanks so much for sharing! ❤❤

Yea I will be a pro in no time hopefully I don’t forget how to use the SHO

Thanks for the video! I want one of these so bad but not certain I could build a business around it…still, I keep watching the videos and tell myself it would be cheaper than buying a sailboat and I would probably use it more than a boat!

A sailboat would be fun! Have to sell a lot of firewood for a nice boat. Thanks for watching!

Great walk through and I love the top down view you had the one camera at. The amount of control you have over split size and minimal waste with this machine is just awesome.

What a sweet splitter! You’re a lucky man!!👍💪👍

Great to see the 17VS in action. Saw it at the Paul Bunyan show with Chris on the controls, looks like you have it nearly figured out, just takes time and practice to get more comfortable with it and learn its quirks. Excited to see more runtime. I also have a 35 SHO BW and starting to look for an option to break down splits into even more custom sizes. Have a great day Around the Yard!

Awesome machine! I'd love to have a vertical machine one day to help save my back.

I’m in the market, and was sold on the Eastonmade Axis until I watched your video. Your splitter is a finished product with all of the bugs worked out. The previous test videos and videos from the Paul Bunyan showed a splitter with a slower cycle time. My mind has been persuaded to this Wolf Ridge. Swiveling hydraulic lift conveyor, plus all controls on the work side is a big plus. I will definitely be getting my spot in line.

One thing to make using any vertical splitter easier and safer is to ensure all the firewood rounds are cut square on both ends. This will prevent the round from kicking out on you.

I'd rather this rain than snow😂😂. I'm looking forward to running your new toy soon 🍻💪 it looks fancy

If it was ash I would put as much as it fit plus. Heavy green oak I pace myself. Today I lifted a 300 Plus pin oak round on it

I wish the knife didn’t flare out wide. If it stayed the thickness of the first 2-3 inches it looks like it would be easier to keep the wood together to rotate.

I know what you mean but the key is to separate wood with out a full stroke.

It seems regardless of any of the commercial splitters out there two people are a must to keep up with it. Did you quarter those rounds with a saw or split them?

I haven’t had the vertical splitter long enough to see what it can do. But I would say the HO or the SHO. I had the pro and loved it but the 2 jacks and folding hitch on my sho makes things faster and Easier to move around.
