Usually, when people say they have the best ____ on youtube, you find out that they have something not so great. You straight up delivered on your claim in this video, though. Impressive setup.
This has got to be the finest wood processing machine that I have ever laid my eyes on! This grandpa cutter would be magnificent four up here in Alaska USA baby!
hey thanks, but I cant take all the credit, machine was built by a couple friends of mine and a retired engineer, it does work really well though, and at this point I think its been about 20 years since it was built. Does 500 cords plus, every year with not much trouble.
You know that's a very impressive machine. You put the right guy in that chair and it might produce for ya, that man seems like he thinks it's playtime up there. ;) Awesome!
Ditto. And the commercial units that are even competitive for speed render less consistent product with lots of size variation and significant kindling (waste).
I was impressed by the speed and the turn around cycle but I don't know if it was my video or others as well but I never seen anything other than the splitting wheel and a glimpse of a circular saw which I knew anyways by the sound and the operator but no motor or any of the other devices it was like it was a secret and just showing the splitting procedure!!
Hory shet!!!! That thing is a beast! Heck of a lot better than any " commercial " or " professional " unit I've seen. Love the splitter of death. Now I have an excuse to upgrade my welding technology lol. Great job man.
This is the coolest design ive seen yet....with the spinning wheel for different sizes.....and the amount you can do.....heck besides selling it I would make a deal with my neighbors.....the can use my machine but the have to buy the gas and oil and for every 10 cords starting with the first the have to cut me a cord, a few neighbors and you would have to cut your own......
That is the best wood processor Ive seen yet and I've watched a lot of the youtube videos. good job building that sucker. I wondering what kind of hub the wheel of death is spinning on. I split a lot of crooked stuff and chunks with crotches. It flexes the I-beam on my splitter. I wonder if that thing would hold up to that kind of wood.
+Adam Bauman I'm not sure what kind of hub it is but it is preaty rugged, they try to pick out the real nasty stuff though and send it to the pulp mill.
awesome video fortune good to see you doing an update on this rig. If you do another one make sure you start the video from out side of the building in the front so people can see the size of this thing and do a little bit of talking to explain some of the different parts on it, not everyone is Maine smart like us haha
slackersteve2004 stevie !!! how have you ben? yep your right I should do a explanatory vid on that rig, im trying to get back into the you tube thing ben wicked slack the last couple years.
ohh ya know man winter time is slow for me with 6ft of snow its hard to get around. same here I haven't posted on youtube for awhile but im gonna do some atving and more gun vids this summer.
Cord king boasts a 5 second cycle time. I tried to watch the seconds tick by on the video a few times and I'm pretty damned sure you have them beat! So many videos on youtube are people who finally just put something together and are showing it off when they have no clue at all how to run the controls after a few minutes or even a few hours of dinking around with it. It's nice to see a real video of a seasoned operator showing what a real firewood processor can do.
Cord King is for sure the best. I don't know what this one would cost. It would have to handle a much larger size to impress me as an all around machine.
@@nickford5549 Pellet mills start under $4K for this sized throughput - and this is a home-made firewood processor video. I'm sure some resourcefulness could find the original video poster bulding a dust collection system which grades as it collects (too big - off to a shredder, too small - off to the boiler), and then uses waster heat from the engine to dry/condition the sawdust - with a saw-dust fired boiler using the fines to make heat and exhaust heat from that burner drying the incoming fines.
Great bit of gear. Not sure about the best homemade processor but way up there. I have a love of firewood processors as I used to cut wood for a living. Probably the best I've seen is #1 on czcams.com/play/PLWeA7nGSoZ0h4vdbKUNZ_cFSqib_DpQLs.html It processes each cut in about 3s and is automated which is a huge bonus. The 4th one on playlist is a bit slow but it has an awesome dual splitter which means there's no waiting for a return stroke.
Might be a good processor but the video leaves a lot to be desired. Where is the picture of the whole system? All you see is component. Definitely not the best on YT, that's for sure!!
This is probably the nicest fastest heavy-duty firewood processor ever built. That splitter heads unique.

Hands down, the most impressive firewood processor I have ever seen. Made in Maine to boot!
This has got to be the finest wood processing machine that I have ever laid my eyes on! This grandpa cutter would be magnificent four up here in Alaska USA baby!
My love affair with The Cord King is over I just can't ever look at him the same way again .
Finally a processor that makes decent looking wood! Great idea on the circular multiple wedges.

Eric S So you run it a couple hours a year, basically.
Sir, you built a wood eating monster, i am impressed.
Awesome
You cut my entire winter supply in 8 minutes. Very well done
Thanks
Cheers
Martin
Awesome! I love that you can select the wedge set you want for each size log.
out of all the wood splitters on you tube there is two stand outs this is one of them both home made too great job
You know that's a very impressive machine. You put the right guy in that chair and it might produce for ya, that man seems like he thinks it's playtime up there. ;) Awesome!
Great machine and an operator that is busier than a cat covering dump on a tin roof.
this is very slick.
love the wheel with different splitting patterns for different diameters.
well done!
Great design with the revolving splitter head.
Crazy how effortless the splitting happens
I'm impressed. I haven't seen a commercial unit that is any faster.
Ditto. And the commercial units that are even competitive for speed render less consistent product with lots of size variation and significant kindling (waste).
The largest Cord King is faster and looks as though it can handle a larger size. But VERY expensive.
I was impressed by the speed and the turn around cycle but I don't know if it was my video or others as well but I never seen anything other than the splitting wheel and a glimpse of a circular saw which I knew anyways by the sound and the operator but no motor or any of the other devices it was like it was a secret and just showing the splitting procedure!!
you are a hydraulic genius. That's a lot of activity simultaneously.
The BEST I've ever seen!
Love the death wheel lol that's an awesome machine !!!
Winner winner chicken dinner,hands down the best one I have seen !
This is a beast. Outstanding!
Hory shet!!!! That thing is a beast! Heck of a lot better than any " commercial " or " professional " unit I've seen. Love the splitter of death. Now I have an excuse to upgrade my welding technology lol. Great job man.
That is so awesome!
Nice set up! Ah the beauty of hydraulics
hi there great machine , john
This is the coolest design ive seen yet....with the spinning wheel for different sizes.....and the amount you can do.....heck besides selling it I would make a deal with my neighbors.....the can use my machine but the have to buy the gas and oil and for every 10 cords starting with the first the have to cut me a cord, a few neighbors and you would have to cut your own......
WOW! Look at all that money being made so quickly.
The Robert Frost Award for using your noodle goes to....
the maker of this processor is my spirit guide
Gosh, great!
how bog is your hydraulic pump and what hydraulic motor do you have on the saw blade?
That is the best wood processor Ive seen yet and I've watched a lot of the youtube videos. good job building that sucker. I wondering what kind of hub the wheel of death is spinning on.

nice work good operator also
Uummmmm WOW. Now that's impressive.
What did you use for a motor to drive the blade?
hi i want to buil a processor like this one can i have more information about it!
what did you do to buil a fast one like this
the VERY BEST !!!!
WAY way better than my BELLS 8000 Processor
This thing kicks arse
Fastest one I have seen impressive
how do I get all these amazing toys?
YUP that works !
Where are u located I would love to come see it in person
Лучшее на Ютюбе👍
Wow that's quick
Wow!
DAYUM !!!!!!!! Only thing that would make it cooler is if it was steam powered
20+ cords a day ,pretty slick
What are some of the specs on this machine? Prime mover h.p.? Pump size? Cord/hour? Awesome machine!
+Corey Mac the engine is a cat 3208 210 hp not sure on the pumps but will do 3 coards an hour easy enough
awesome video fortune good to see you doing an update on this rig.

Thats the best one i have seen i want one .as our timberwolf works us to death

On the ball operator
Very slick ;-)
I think if you could set the splitter blade rotor by the height of the >>last
About 85k just for the machine to make the pellets, not including drying, sifting and packing

The machine is only as fast as the operator.
Look at my firewood processor to 75cm trunk diameter 60 tons splitting force !
can i buy this machine?
DAYUM !!!!!!
Largest size it can handle?
probly 20 inch, but 16 is optimal
That thing must do like 10-15 cord an hour
looks fast
better than most factory built processors.
i need this
+Tiersmoke92555 every one does
Those Maineacts really know how to do things right!

Just
toute un operateur

Like a full cord every 6 minutes?....
+Dwight Eisenhower no its more like 20 minutes per cord

……shame you can’t spell the word ‘processor’………
Home made? Err OK, if your home is an agro-industrial complex like this. Not exactly put together in the garden shed type of homemade...
