Hud-Son HWB Box Wedge Wood Splitter Review In this video, Wes and his crew put the Hud-Son HWB Box Wedge Wood Splitter to the test by timing how quickly they could split and stack 1/3 of a cord of firewood. The result? An impressive 21 minutes and 27 seconds. With one person operating the splitter, another feeding the rounds, and a third stacking the pieces into an IBC tote, the crew worked efficiently to hit this impressive time. This shows that the HWB can split about one full cord of firewood in just one hour—a productivity level that really stood out to our test crew. Given its portability and versatility, the HWB proved to be a high-performing machine. Key Features & Impressions: Box Wedge Design: The crew was particularly impressed by the design and overall build quality of the HWB. The box wedge provides consistent, clean splits, and the craftsmanship of this American-made machine is clear. Auxiliary Hydraulic Lines: A standout feature is the inclusion of factory-installed hydraulic lines designed for powering a conveyor system. This can save a lot of time and effort when stacking large amounts of firewood. However, there’s one thing to consider: the HWB produces a significant amount of waste, visible when filling the IBC totes. While some waste can be repurposed as kindling, much of it is scrap that needs to be managed. This is a common issue with box-wedge splitters, not just the Hud-Son model. Price & Value: The Hud-Son HWB comes with a $9,795 MSRP. While it’s an investment, it can pay for itself quickly. Check local listings to see what a cord of firewood is going for in your area, and consider the potential profits from turning out perfectly-sized, ready-to-sell firewood at a fast pace. Final Thoughts: Overall, the Hud-Son HWB is a rugged, versatile, and highly capable firewood splitter. Whether you’re splitting for personal use or running a firewood business, it’s built to handle heavy-duty work. Interested in the HWB or other Hud-Son equipment?
