why not split straight into the woodshed with an occasional stop to tidy the stack?
Good analysis! Love that old Ford truck "the blue beast"
Hi Mike,Larry from Cornwall Ont Canada, I use the bark that falls off my wood for kindling, works out great for me., love your videos keep it up, thanks.
The Split Force would be great for the smaller operator/home style unit. Also only has one motor to do all jobs and should be cheaper than the Wolf Ridge.
Ah that would be nice in my yard with two 24" oaks cut and staging in sections. Some big wood !
Hi Mike & Melissa. Nice to see what you are doing there. I'm looking forward to seeing things progress in W. Virginia. Blessings from Rick in N.H.
Love the silent lead in story with music. Nice job with the early morning fog today.
My favorite short film is West Coast vs. East Coast where you showcased chainsaws and electric bike.
I do like the mobility part of that new splitter but the wolf ridge is my pick. I just love that machine. It is one of my favorite machines to watch work at Camp Morgan. Im just glad that it’s firewood sason. Stay well, stay safe and yall HAVE A DAY
Great job love your videos thank you
Mike, why not move the mobile splitter over by the shed, and just split onto ground?
Hey Mike. Just curious why you don’t have a Outfoor Wood Boiler to heat the house ? Thanks for the great videos
Hello Morgans, absolutely love your videos, you all are doing great keep it up. Not loving the strange annoying music. I wish I was as skilled at operating your equipment as you are. Great new property anxious to see the development!!!!
Is there a particular reason you split the wood in to such small pieces?
Hi Mike, Melissa and the whole family! Love your videos. What happened with Levi and Kate's channel?
That thing is fast a splitting wood
I'm sure you already know this, but a must for any emergency kit is a large pack of water proof matches and a very trustworthy flashlight. Also a waterproof covering, like a plastic tarp and blankets.
Looks great

I like my firewood split up in 6 to 8 inch chunks more
I would insulate wall between the garage and game room just in case you want to close it off. Can always hang a gas heater in the garage if needed.
the only thing i don't like with the blue log splitter is. when you are holding the wood you have a tendency to put your thrum on top of the logs at what point are you going to do that and accidently have you finger under the wedge when it comes down .
Hi Mike, something well worth considering on the prefab cabin. If you were to go with a full basement with 7 foot ceiling height for the cabin and if it can be located on a slope, you could then have a walk out basement with two 4 foot wide (double door, 8 foot total width) that provides you with easy access safe indoor storage for tools and other equipment.
i woulda guessed with all the wood cutting there would be some shake shingles going on in the building.
Love you guys . But just bite the bullet and try out and Easton made box wedge splitter you will not be disappointed. Best splitter on the market by far. used them all. no competition at all.
Heard you mention burning some brush in WV. Just a reminder that there are outdoor burning laws in effect until the end of the year in WV. No burning between 7am and 5 pm.
That ting would be great for "splits" for smokers.
Good comparison video. Viewers can easily make up their minds with your explanation of the two. Stay safe.
Mike…your film editing and music combo has really improved…congratulations
I think I'm sold on the new splitter, especially for bundled firewood as you mentioned. It seems you get far more 'squared off' pieces which in my mind makes for faster and easier bundles. However, the 4 and 6 way splitter for bulk makes a lot of sense as well. Carry on and enjoy what you're doing. You got it covered!
My dad said everybody needs a go to he#& truck . The kind of truck you can get dirty with . Blueford is that truck . Great video , thanks .
😀👍👊❤
Great video, what about rc the cow
Fantastic video
You really are a great story teller
Mikey, regarding the 2 circulating fans you mentioned in the new building to move the woodstove air from the game room side into the garage side…..
I think you will be better off with 1 fan mounted up high moving the hot air from the game room side and another fan mounted low near the floor to move the cold air from the garage side back to woodstove. At least, that has been my experience heating with wood.
very good first 2 minutes i liked that begining
I like that splitter what's the price for something like that
thank you for the videos. I've been looking at this type of splitter for a while. does the wedge need to go all the way down every split, or can it be returned before bottoming out like the axis can?
When you pinched your finger on your woodmiser did it hurt? Noticed your putting your hands on end face of firewood when splitting w/self propelled splitter wonder how much that wedge taking a thumb or finger would hurt. You have a lot of viewers some of which are brand new to power splitters, could you take a moment and coach them up on this issue. What is your take on this comment. I wish you & your viewers well. Have a good one.
Good morning Mike, great video. I have a question for you. What do you use to mark your logs at 16", chalk? Thanks in advance for you help. Hope you are having a great day.
