Made a inquiry about these log splitters in a thread a few wks ago and got some favorable comments on this Northern Tool product... Finally pulled the trigger on one, and assembled it yesterday. Pulled it out in the backyard this morning, fired it up, and have to say I believe this thing will split anything you feed it.....Oak, hickory, any size, it just doesn't matter. This thing is a powerhouse! ![[Linked Image]](https://trapperman.com/forum/attachments/usergals/2024/06/full-47568-221630-1000001886.jpg)

I bought that ram kit for the one I had built nothing it won’t split and I get some huge rounds from a buddy with a tree business.
Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that!

We fab expanded metal and angle iron that's hindged to fold up during transport with a drop leg Increases efficiency alot, as you have a work area that holds wedges for processing.

Can it be used vertically as well for those really big rounds?

7-8 seconds. Edit* The literature says 14 secs....I'm splitting 16"-17" lengths for a woodstove, so that's a different deal altogether..

I have a 10year old 30 ton, you will love the ram with the hook on the top (no ride overs) and the honda cutting back to idle when the ram is allthe way back.
