ABSTRACT:
Apparatus and method for processing relatively large tree logs into relatively small firewood logs using two spaced apart cutting stations, a central conveyor, a transfer station and a splitter station wherein relatively large tree logs are placed sequentially onto an entrance portion of each of the two spaced apart cutting stations and are cut into rounds which are discharged onto the conveyor and moved to a transfer station. Each round is moved into a splitter station wherein each round is moved over splitter blades to form firewood logs. The splitter blades are mounted in support members secured to a square frame having spaced apart opposite sidewalls wherein the distance between each two aligned support members is greater than the distance between opposite sidewalls.
