Don't think it would work that good with a bit of red gum, or speewaville wood. Would be a good bit of gear though if it would do the hard stuff.

Yep thats right cant remember if its in this thread already. Lots of petitions and push from some local councillors to get it changed. More than 70%  of Barmah residents have wood fueled heating only

Nope, only the offcuts in the other trailer. Dogs were going off so didnt hang around too long. Might pop Sat arvo if you are home.

Wouldn't mind getting one of these. Would be handy for the big stuff and easier to transport than a V8 chainsaw!

They can be, but can make cutting up bodies easier!!

My dad's cousin had one, was great. But takes a bit of skill to use them.

gday all - some advice please.

we live in an old house with only a wood heater for heating - and it gets pretty cold around here.

yesterday I borrowed a mate's cheap ebay 7t electric log splitter and was surprised at the size of the logs it went through - did ok I thought, although a bit slow and at times I had to give it 3 or 4 goes to get split the logs (not going through the knot).

I could get one of these for about $400 delivered and it would get the use, but I was reading about just getting a block splitter or axe and although more labour, apparently its quicker and easier? I've never had any axe better than a cheapie from bunnys, so ive got no idea about quality and what to get.
do you reckon I should stick with the electric jobbie or is there a real benefit in the manual way? cheers
