Personally prefer homemade splitters, especially this blokes one with a super safe Capstan Winch rope loader, foolproof design!

FWIW: Most of the native gums in our hills won’t even begin to crack (green) without 30T rams minimum and still struggle on the gnarly knotty bits.

Ryobi make some decent stuff mate, if your nowlt using them everyday for trade 100% they are an awesome tool. Had a decent company set a few jobs ago, could not fault them except they had slightly less balls to.go the distance. Also, Ryobi are the only brand I believe that make an 18v hot glue gun, much handier than you think, pretty much can fix everything.

I found those retractable units better for in shop application.

The master farter
I don't use this often, and I only use one out of the kit but so bloody handy when I do use it. Cheap too! I had to install a new front axle seal over the weekend.

I also had to replace the hub seal as the bearings got a wash in diff oil. No tool large enough so I made my own. Worked a treat too. Haha!

Another great tool I have is my wash tub. Stinks, but it gets things nice and clean. Especially after the mess a badly leaking axle seal leaves....

I priced those up mate, not sure where you got yours from but a metal manual wind reel with no hose was over $100 (cheapest I found was about 130) and then I would have to add a 30m hose for an additional 70-80$. I know the retracta reel is better for workshops but I'm on an apprentice wage/budget. Yeah I have heaps of expensive tools in my picture but they were purchased when I was doing bulk hours and pulling in much more coin.
