I must say that I applaud your help to your community. One day to help 30 families heat or cook in their homes is a great thing and that is not something you hear of much anymore. No doubt this benefits everyone involved. Excellent!

These Dyna wood processors were designed and are built by the Amish community here in my hometown of Millington, MI. They are a phenomenal group of people that make a great product.

I too, am part of the dual alternator gang. It's been lonely at the top. Glad you're here 👍

So inspirational to see you spread your blessings out to your community. God is good!

Cody doing a paid promo, where they literally give him the product "meh". Lol Cody talking about a tool that was borrowed to him to help people in his community... company gets 13 min of praise! Which they totally deserve! Heck of a machine!

Saw the number for the "Rent Me" and realized that it came from Northern Lower Michigan. :) Nice to see "home" on KZread, even if just the area code.

20 cords in a day!?! That is impressive as I rented one for 8 hours and ran it as hard as I could and didn't get 10 cords. The machines are absolutely great but I experienced the same problems with the harvester bar not having enough pressure and dulling chains constantly. I made a video about it too if you're curious. Thanks for supporting your community!

He went from 35 cords total to 35 in a day to 20 cords total. It sounds like he was busy that day and not paying close attention to the actual numbers. My dad and I process and sell firewood and we have done 12 cords in a day including delivery. If you had nice big straight logs like Cody had and had someone keeping the deck loaded and you didn't have to worry about delivery I think 20 cords in a day is reasonable.

The shots of everyone swarming the woodpile and loading trucks and trailers was pretty cool to see!

I have missed the calming influence your videos have in my life. I know you have a life and have a lot to do but I just want to tell you how important your videos are to me.

I imagine there are a few firewood sellers locally that have other words than fear to describe what they think of "this man" who seems to be attempting to put them out of business!

That machine is a beast! As far as the dull chains causing the cutoffs to flip sideways; would a short, two or three inch wide, curved piece of metal, angled downward and directly underneath the piece being cut, prevent that from happening, by sort of funneling the cut down into that crib? I like the way that one hand washed the other with you and Dyna, and that in the process you were able to provide much needed fuel for so many homes. That's real community building!

You reap what you sow... You will be a blessed family!

8:10 My thoughts on a solution is for the next version to have a catch basket that supports the end of the log while being cut and once the cut is complete will open to drop the cut off down in the proper orientation. The drawback is added cost and complexity.

@8Jory

Just make that little orange rod a bit stiffer and it should help a lot to stop the log from pivoting forward. The problem appears to come from the wood hinging on the last few attached fibres as he said. If the top end of the round was prevented from dropping too far then it shouldn't flip on end. There's a balance that needs to be found there somewhere between the logs getting flipped with a floppy stop, and pinching the saw with a stop that's too rigid.

dyna makes our sewer jetter, stupidest piece of equipment ive ever seen. and Im blessed to be able to run it way too much.

Im here to leave a comment because Wranglerstar said he was waiting until I did. I also pressed the like button.

If you cut a round longer than it is across ill bet it will fall properly

A set of bombardier doors to catch and then drop the cut wood seems like a possible solution.

The more I watch this channel the more dramatic the titles get.

Hat's off to you and the crew for helping out so many folks. Don't see folks do that much today... donate money, maybe, but very few actually donate their time. Fantastic.

I would imagine that river wood had a lot of dirt in the wood that was dulling the chain.

I don’t see why the log has to drop down after it is cut, if it traveled to the splitter on the same level it seems that would solve that problem.

@kevincallis6444

The ram comes through on the different level as it needs a bit of space for the hydraulics.

A resting spot at the front to support the log that then can retract, would make the machine flawless.

Honestly splitting sideways is very impressive. Especially for a portable machine.

A simple extrapolation from the last one to this one to the "next" one reveals that we are not far from a totally automated one that allows you to sit with a large ice tea and watch it do EVERYTHING! (even unload and load itself on the trailer!) : )

A guide made out of tube steel or a steel plate installed an inch or two to the left of the stop could take the roll out of the pieces as they fall. I'm glad to see what you are doing for your community. God bless.

Did you know that the newer ford f250s have dual alternators?

The bar saw should be replaced with a circular saw, but that’s a much higher risk when hitting metal. I work for a logging company that uses a firewood processor with a smaller circular saw as well as larger circular saw slashers for the grapple cranes for processing logs in the wood yard. I’ve been told that a loose tooth coming off of the slasher blade (4-5 ft diameter) has the same force as a 9mm hand gun round.

If 30-40 families rent one of those together for a weekend, the cost will be very effordable for a family and save a ton of work.

Nothing feels better than giving back to your community!

Cody I am sure that you will never see this comment. You have a huge following. Never-the-less, from one Christian brother to another, I so appreciate your love for Christ and how your try to share that love to others around you where you live as this video shows. I will never meet you in this life, but I am very excited that I have the hope of meeting you and your family when we all are gathered together at Christ's table.

Amazing how the logging and production equipment has improved. 🇨🇦

Again, well done Cody

My uncle has an older version of this machine, he processes about 20 cord per year. Amazing machine for sure!

Possible fix for the splitting issue. The manufacturer could install a "holding platform" for the round once it's cut. They could make it concave so as to cradle the round. A lever at the control panel could connect to this platform, which acts as a trap door. The round falls onto the hydraulic ram path, oriented properly.

only one alternator? I'm soooooooo disappointed! Still, two alternators on the screen so that's ok then.

7:55 if there was a clamping piston on either side of the round being cut that released as soon as the saw retracted, it'd control the fall the way you want

8:00 having a ridged log stop would help

Idk what that engine is but I liked the video. 😂😂😂

I wonder if that orange stop guide was more stiff it would prevent the flop of the log. In slow motion at least it looked like that would prevent it.

CAT in my opinion is hands down the best Diesel built! It’s sad that they no longer make engines for commercial trucks for on road use. They got tired of trying to keep up on ever changing emission laws. They said the laws are so stringent that they could not make a reliable and well functioning engine for the consumer. They still make them for heavy equipment and commercial grade off road machines obviously. I appreciate your work.

Why can’t you build some sort of adjustable metal structure that would always guide the fallen log into the correct orientation. Shouldn’t be too hard to manufacture a part that would do that successfully

ahh yes I do love the cat engine! But dose it have dual alternators ? ..... i need a 2x alternator emoji

LOL. Subliminal Alternator Messaging............... Great work you are doing, you are a Blessing to your Community.

A mean machine. Good to see you wearing your safety glasses.

That Cadillac came and gave our girl a ride.

Just recently I've been looking at my lawn mower thinking it needs another alternator 🤔

What the machine needs is for the bottom cradle that receives it for splitting to actually be raised in line to carry the piece and then have the cradle drop in front of the ram for splitting.

Loved the video but why is the Footage so blurry? Is it my connection?

My God how I wished I had something like that in my early teens in Ireland, everything was done with a saw and a good heavy splitter, i used to come in from school and split tons of logs to heat our wee home along with family , no central heating we lived in a house that they made at the time with mass concrete it was an old building , we had a fireplace in every room and an open stove in the sitting room so you can imagine the amount of timber we burnt, that machine would have seemed like a miracle lol

The reason the rounds were spinning and dropping was because you were cutting short rounds 14 inch is to small if you cut 16 inch they would drop correct orientation every time

@diogenes9295

3 жыл бұрын

The splitter head should be adjustable.

What are those safety glasses you are wearing?

They are a well built machine, that's for sure. The problems we saw, was very poor view of the wedge, and the style of the saw bar tensioner and mounting plate. The oiler turned all the way down was still pumping hugely excessive amounts of bar oil. In one day we used as much bar oil as our log processor does in 6 months! A log max style cam tensioner and mounting plate would be the best upgrade as far as ease of use and not having to take the bar all the way off if you throw a chain. The excessive bar oil usage also kept the plexy door covered and impossible to see through.

Helping your neighbor... Love it!

Amazing intro song. I love Mandolin Orange.

Cutting your logs longer than 14" will also help keep them straight. Right now, the chunks are wider than they are long.

Please make a table with that log. Send me a slice and I will make one!

I think if you cut your logs at 16" they would fall correctly into the splitting chamber. Nice job on the vid. Joe

THANK YOU DYNA FOR HELPING SO MANY FAMILIES

Great videos Cody, love your experiences. In Indiana that unit wouldn't work at all, because we done have telephone poles to burn. Our trees grow crooked and more natural to diciduous trees. We have cut 15 to 20 cords a year for 25 years and could use a machine like that if it could do bigger and more crooked stuff. LORD bless you.

A little good will and help from everyone goes a long way. Congratulations to all.👍

Would the log fall straight down if it was cut from the bottom-up, rather than the top-down? Yours truly, A bloke who lives in a city

That’s a beast, thanks for sharing!

A simple solution would be to replace the distance stop with a semi rigid plate so to prevent the log from tipping at the slow speeds.

A V-shaped trough that catches the cut log closer to the hight where it is cut. Then the trough opens "quickly" and the cut piece will land perfectly in the splitter trough.

if there was a small yoke that worked in concert with the saw blade (came up right under the log end every time you pulled the blade lever, and return down when you released the blade lever) it would support the off cut, and alleviate the flipping issue. Might even let a guy get a few more cords per chain which indeed would save a guy $100-200 over the course of a stack of logs. Would even be fairly inexpensive for Dyna to implement, just 1 ram 2 hoses and a couple splitters/fittings.

I don’t mean to criticize, or seem envious. it’s been amazing to watch your KZread journey over the years, and the success it’s brought into your lives....You deserve every bit of it. I need to say this though.... I was originally drawn to this channel because it promotes tools and skills that are obtainable by the common working man. I think it’s safe to say that a very small percentage of the population can afford something such as a brand new diesel hydraulic wood processor. Most of us probably couldn’t even afford the parts to maintain or repair it. I think we have to be realistic here. Me personally, I would like to see a more in-depth video on the drip torch. Safe use and practices with it. What not to do etc. Simpler things like that are invaluable to someone like me....especially when it’s delivered by a knowledgeable and experienced person like you.....on just about any tool. Thank you to whoever took the time to read my comment. I know you probably don’t have much spare time. Much love to the Wranglerstar family!

Dual alternators yessir don’t think we all missed that😂

Great machine Mr. Wranglerstar , as for the pieces that fall awkwardly , over the years I’ve pruned and wrecked many trees in my time , I think the reason that they fall and may tumble is because the balance of the wood piece , wood is not dimensional in weight , like a perfect balanced square or a round circle . there’s parts of the tree that have tension wood and compression wood , which means the piece of wood round may be lighter or heavier on one side , when it is cut or severed it may fall in a specific way to do the way it weighs hopefully this helps the non wood folks understand Joe

There’s a great thing you done for the community

Great job again Cody contributing to the community.

Can't wait for Caterpillar to get another alternator or three on that diesel ...

I’m not wizard or anything. But not renting, but say that was yours and you owned it, you could set bars on the side that are like a spring type loaded? Like the 14inch cuts on each that stop bar. But like on the sides that would allow you to have bigger and smaller pieces without having to manually use them. But it would be something that “you” or anyone who owned thoes would have to make.

I subscribed after watching a vid where you replaced your ball joints 9 years ago had no idea you made these vids.

Seems like 16” or 18” length would help with the sideways jam when the chain dulls versus you 14”. You west coasters with your short soft wood…
