Hydraulic Log Splitters

Perhaps the toughest part of processing firewood is when you put the chainsaw down and pickup the axe. Hydraulic log splitters make short work of this task while saving your back and arms from damage. There is nothing more frustrating than trying to split a log that is full of knots, one log can take you 20 minutes to chop into pieces. Hydraulic log splitters can process a winter’s supply of firewood in a single day, that amount of wood would take you days to process by hand.

Chippers and Shredders

Not all parts of the tree are destined for the fireplace. Chipping and shredding are the best methods of reducing large awkward branches into small chips and pellets that are easy to handle. These machines can also be used to create a fine mulch that can be used in the garden this coming spring!

Firewood Processors

For the all-in-one solution, Wallenstein firewood processor do almost everything that used to be done by hand. One the tree is felled and trimmed, simply feed it into the machine and cut the perfect lengths while it splits the logs for you and spits out useable firewood on the other side. It is like a one-person assembly line that can process up to 1.5 cords of wood per hour, try doing that by hand!
