If you are looking for one Bad A** Beaver, the model 20 is THE beast! Powered by a Kohler CH

1000 or Kubota 1505 engine and equipped with a Parker VOAC 7135 rpm saw, 404 18H 26” true

harvester combination and backed by our “Super Split” Regenerative Dual Ram system, this Bad

A** Beaver sends other processor home crying. This is by far the fastest cut/split combination on

the market. A typical 10” hardwood log is cut in under 4 seconds and split in 3-4 seconds flat!!!

The Dual Rams can blast through the toughest logs at ultra-fast speeds putting 34+ tons of real

splitting force to the end of the rams – no theory, just pure brute force. And against our ax edge

splitting wedges, even the biggest, ugliest knots are destroyed. This monster can take a 22” diam-

eter, 20’ long log and turn it into firewood in less than 2 minutes. 4 cords or more an hour of good

size wood, easy. The Model 20BAB is truly one Bad A** Beaver!

Return on your investment – buying the right amount of machine

Somewhere along the line, Pappy said, “Spend your money on things that make you money.” Great advice! The back

half of that is “The more you spend, the longer it takes to pay for it.” But when it comes to a firewood processor, there

are a lot of things to consider and the price of the machine is part of the value equation.

If everything else is equal, the less you spend, the more you make or the quicker it is paid off – you have a better re-

turn on investment.

So, how do you decide what makes sense as you invest in a firewood processor? Start by taking a realistic look at the

size and volume of wood you have available.

Next, think about how much you really go through and where that number is headed. If you are a homeowner heating

your house, 10-15 cords annual is probably in the right neighborhood. Commercial guys generally have a better handle

on their overall volume, but even then, take a look at where you are today, growth history (if you have it), and where

you realistically want to go to. If your current volume is 200 cords annually and growth has been flat, getting a machine

that could take you to 1,000 cords or more annually is probably overkill, unless you have the customers, but didn’t

have the ability to produce.

Consider how much time you plan to spend running the machine. Time versus money is a huge piece of the puzzle.

Time is money – we’ve all heard it, but how do we make it count? Let’s throw some simple math around (These are

representative numbers for illustration only, fill in with your own for an estimate of potential profit):

Per cord cost of goods sold Income

Cost of machine A__(20000 Cords of wood sold annually B__(400_

Cords per year to sell B/___400_ Sell price per cord J*__250)

Machine cords per hour C/_____2_ Annual gross income K=100,000

(Includes fuel, maintenance, etc) Per cord machine cost
