I basically flogged mine to death. I have thought about buying another one which would be in the realms of a 30 -40 t unit, however have simply managed the wood splitting by sourcing red gum posts from a fencing contractor at $3 a post and I buy 100 at a time, use a good quality docking saw and TC blade and slowly work my way to generate 1ft blocks. 300 blocks easily does us for winter as it ambience only supply - central heating does the lions share.
Thanks PeeBee.

You remember what brand?

Probably all out of the same place with different stickers..

Bunnings start at $329. Apparently ALDI were selling one. Anyway thanks for your input, I'll see what's out there in there.
