I love end of the year clearance.

heck, one of those would be perfect for the boys to use on our tree jobs....that'd keep them busy and off of their Ipods and Nintendo DS's.........I bet I could even talk the wife into doing some splitting while I'm at work...

Great find, Mule!

My wife wants to split during the week.... but the ol' Kohler K181 apparently doesn't like her.... if she tries... it will *not* start... but will fire up on the first crank for me.

Don't even get me started on iPod's and DS's...

I keep threatening to put them all in the microwave..... and I don't care that my ex-wife bought them....

Nice job gmule. If you kinda take care of that splitter it will keep you warm for decades.

Awesome Idea. I could also transport it this way since it is pretty compact. It is not any wider than a fullsize truck bed.

Pretty sure you could whip something like that up pretty cheap.

I was thinking of something exactly like that.

Ohhh...that would be oh, so easy.

How heavy is the whole unit? Is it manageable for a 1 person lift?

Boy! If I could find a hydraulic splitter for that price, I'd break down and buy one. To buy all the part separately would probably cost you twice that amount.
Gota hand it to those Chinese kids, they can sure pump out some nice products.

It weighs about 220# I could lift it on my motorcycle lift to mount it in the receiver if It was too heavy. I made a dolly for my snowplow. With that I can roll the plow up to my truck and pin it and connect the hydraulic lines and I am on my way in about 10 minutes

BTW I like the name they gave it.

I'd say it has your name written all over it.
