A friend has an electric splitter from Drpower equipment that he likes and said it has held up good for the two seasons he has used it.

Thanks for the reply. I thought I would need to change my title, to âÂÂAny replies vs GoodâÂÂ. I knew I had seen commercial or Etc. but I wanted some personal info. Is it possible your friend will share a Model #, some + & - info and Pics of the splitterâÂÂs work? My young 70ish friend needs some Beavers vs a splitter with his pile of wood. IâÂÂve had his back since going back to wood after retiring and slowing. âÂÂBut We Need Helpâ LOL!

I have used a 4 ton rybil splitter for the last year with no issues. It does go a liitle slow on the big stuff but works fine.

Thanks for the reply. I need to find one of the small electric splitters locally to personally try. From the challenge my 9-12 ton hydraulic splitter has on green 12â dia Oak and Pecan I hate to think a small electric can handle green 12â dia wood. Slow is not a concern vs the labor and shock of splitting with a wedge and sledge or a mall.

He said IâÂÂm off the hook with my splitter now that he has a larger saw to cut the larger wood into 6â slices and then into 6â blocks. That is a lot of cutting if the wood can be split easier. He has realized some of his older seasoned Oak has season cracks to reduce the job. I feel âÂÂwell seasoned Oakâ vs Pecan would work with a Small Electric Splitter or mall w/o much labor and shock. The cutting pecan into block is a process that a friend went to with age and back problems that has worked well with his large Pro grade Stihl saw.

With our small City lots there is not much room to allow un-stacked wood to lay un-slit vs split and stacked to season. That is a point to make to him since he is on at least an acre and could allow Oak vs Pecan wood to season before splitting/stacking.

I have offered him to bring some of his pecan to see if my larger splitter will save him some time. IMO and experience, Pecan is work to split seasoned or green. Attached was his harvest before adding 3 more loads with green pecan included from a recent storm.

His larger saw is a Poulan 550 with a better grade chain added, over his Older Poland S-25. I am not familiar with the 550. I would like to get some opinions if someone sees this and have experiences with the saw.

Too much Time On My Hand In This Wet Cool Weather. LOL!
