At that price I don't think it would split anything but Radiata.
I paid $3000 for this one and it will split just about anything.

Log splitter
Bunnings here have the Ozito version for about the same price. I don't know how good it would be though.
Dave,
hug the tree before you start the chainsaw.

Thank you all. Compared with Bazza's machine, the GMC is a toy. i now find it is limited to 5 tonnes, log size max 10" dia by 12" long. Bazza does 20 or 30 tonnes, and much larger logs.
I suspect Bazza is right about the GMC being limited to radiata, or perhaps small logs of straight grained hardwood. And I can crack that stuff by hand.

And I've accidentally stuck this also on the end of Bazza's old thread about designer Firewood. Sorry Bazza.
