        Well, it's good for the size and price.

        But I like this one more.

        I can't comment on the ryobi but the way he's splitting is completely wrong. He's splitting hard wood and trying to split directly against the growth rings. He should be splitting parallel to the rings. Even my old 9T 6HP hydraulic splitter would struggle on some Aussie hardwoods. Best to split that log would have been to split four D shapes pieces around the circle then you'd be left with a square centre piece.

    Good ol Aldi keeping Bunnings in check

    This is to match the Aldi deal?

    The Aldi one has 6.5 tonne and 5 yr warranty

    • Elijha on 21/04/2017 - 19:49

      Sorry looked but can't find a reference to Aldi having one of these… was this in the past?

      • pax on 21/04/2017 - 20:11

        I believe it is Saturday week, as we've had the pamphlet delivered, but gone now.

    Thanks OP, just in time for mothers day.

  • Daniel Plainview on 21/04/2017 - 17:27

    Time to man up instead: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/300689

    • Nugs on 21/04/2017 - 18:41

      yep.

      we have combustion heater, and I will do 10-15 minutes of splitting at a time so it's not a big chore. more if I want the work out.

      splitter was about $30…

      • BlinkyBill on 21/04/2017 - 18:56

        good luck splitting knotted logs though. I cut about 6T with a Fiskars X27, but I have another tonne of bastard logs that won't split by hand :(

        • Nugs on 21/04/2017 - 19:46

          been lucky so far. then again I'd estimate we only burn max 2T/year.

          mainly olive & gum trees

          if I find a bit that's too hard to split and it won't fit in the door of the heater it will end up as campfire/bonfire fuel

        • pax on 21/04/2017 - 20:15

          I love my Fishers x25. I don't know why I bothered with the cheaper axes and splitters before it. Anything with a knot, or too dry, I use the Victa 80V chainsaw I got on the previous deal.

          Sometimes I even use a 2lb splitter and sledge hammer as well with a real thick log.

      but not Windows Logs you'll need the Aldi 6.5T version for that

    water helps soften logs

      Consuming more fibre helps as well.

    If I need to split the hardwood, will it be a lot more difficult in the morning?

  • Tasmaniac on 21/04/2017 - 19:20

    Or you could just use horse power:
