Cool video about electric log splitter, take a look:
Log splitting for firewood can be back-breaking, time-consuming work. Power log splitters are traditionally large, industrial machines with gas engines that can be moved only by towing it with a vehicle. Here’s a change to all that. It weighs a mere 99lbs and plugs into a standard 110V house outlet, but develops 4 tons of splitting force. Making firewood has never been easier!

that’s cool, but real men split their logs with an axe.
i have one of these, but i made a steel table for it to sit on so i dont have to bend over to use it. great machine for the money and quit to use
Watch his back! It’s a matter of time and he will certainly develop an herniated discus in the lower- back!
Why not using a splitter on man’s height?
I already saw many patiënts with severe lower- backproblems due to incorrect use of the back.
Check out the Rayco LS2526 its a heavy-duty wood splitter with a 13 HP Honda engine that develops 2500 psi and 25 tons of force. Special features include 600 lb. log lift, auto cycle, hydraulic wedge lift and hydraulic four way, 10 second total cycle time and weighs 1,200 lbs. Simply Badass!!!
Best one yet , money well spent
you go paul bunyan!
I bought mine at Canadian Tire here in Canada, very similar but I think mine might be a chinese knockoff, believe it or not the little bugger works great, cost was 225$ cdn. have split about 25 cords with mine, still works great, but remember the vent! open or closeing, if you forget to close it it makes a mess.. I welded up a small stand for mine from old bedframe angle iron. it does take 2 to run fast, doesnt like dry punky hardwood, but splits all of it, with a little fussing..
You just have to make sure to keep the rails lubricated and be sure the valve on the end is open to allow air to escape the oil tank. I’m pretty sure they’re not designed for constant or heavy duty activity. I use mine a couple times a season. It does work beautifully as long as you use properly dried/aged wood.
whats maintenance like on these things and how long/well do they work?
Nope, she’s a Husky-mix from the shelter. Best dog I’ve ever had. The splitter is a Ryobi. I got it at Home Depot. Thanks.
is that a border collie you have there? is the wood splitter a ryobi? looks good.
I’d love to get a gas one..but I might have to settle for an electric one for now..
can someone give me some good feedback? I live in pa so we have some harsh winters
I am thinking in fact to pick up an electric wood-cutter since it seems me the most convenient datum his little noise and the facility of use. For the strength of 4ton to me it would be enough since I have solo a small kitchen to firewood.
My suggestion: go natural! I split 6 to 10 cords of wood each year by hand. I use a twelve pound and 8 pound maul. I find that oak is never a problem…usually easier when green. It is also easier when frozen. Ash is always easy. Tulip is very easy. Cherry, birch and swamp maple is a little more difficult and I’ll chop the edges first. Pine is knotty and elm is impossible…it breaks rather than splits. I like the quiet and will play music while splitting.
Works well enough.
The wood split in video was definitely well aged/seasoned. Have a 27 ton gas-powered splitter at house in the mountains and it goes thru seasoned wood like butter but once I tried to split a not-so seasoned piece of about 24 inch diameter oak and that 27 ton couldn’t get thru that oak.
Still going to buy the ryobi one as need one for here at the regular house and am always collecting wood from around town. Expect the ryobi 2 ton to have no problem with seaoned wood.
Enough said!not a word spoken and you sold me on this little sucker
nice doggy
Winters here are so mild, I don’t have to burn a lot of wood. An hour of splitting will give me enough wood for the whole winter. This little splitter is perfect for my purposes.
looks like a toy. i built one from scrath on a boat trailer. a big one. looks like this would be ok for lil camp wood and such. put it on a bench bro. save that back.
mine has a crane built on and will lift 600+lb logs.
nice little tool.
not bad, splitting woods bloody good excersize though, very good core excersize.
lol thats cool, i like it, also good video quality
Hi i couldn’t find a 10 guage but got a 12.I heard a good tip to everyone using electric splitters oil the wedge it will work easier on tuff wood and all wood.And shapren it some when dull.
Hi i have a 5 ton vertical from Northern and it said open the bleeder valve before you use it and run the cyclinder up and down a few times to clear any air from shipping.I think it said tighten it when your moving it not clear on that hope i helped.
