As a sheriff's deputy, I responded one time to a medical emergency at a remote cabin site. A guy was using a homemade splitter and a piece of a clutch assembly exploded into pieces. A piece struck his teenage son slicing off a large section of the right side of his head. The wound was so devastating the family thought the boy had died. When I examined his body it turned out the boy was still alive. I was able to stabilize him until he was eventually medevaced to a hospital. He did survive and about a year later his dad brought him by to thank us. He was paralyzed over most of his body and he lost 1/3 of his brain. Every time I see machines such as these it reminds me of how dangerous they can be. With some of these machines, they are just flittering with disaster.

Loosing a number of fingers is common. I lost the end of my left index finger to a chain saw.

However, when they came to visit and say thanks, surprisingly the son was able to communicate quite well and he was able to move himself in the wheelchair. He was far from being in a vegetative state, despite the massive head injury. With the extent of the injuries, I honestly thought he would not have survived, but God works in mysterious ways, as they say.

I heated my home with firewood for two winters. For anyone who hasn't done it, you consume a LOT of wood. I cut up an entire downed tree with a chainsaw, a good 16 inches thick at the stump, and it only lasted like a month. I used a friend's hydraulic log splitter and it was still a lot of work. You might think these people are nuts, but try splitting enough wood for a winter yourself and you'll come up with whatever silly tool you can think of to make it easier. Wood is gold in the winter, and people get real weird about it too, like family after inheritance. The hydraulic splitter I used was really slow. Like you'd be at it for hours, just wondering if it would be faster to use an axe. That said, I really admire the spring-action splitter. No engine racket!

Back when I was still living at home with my parents before college days, my father and I spent many weekends cutting down, cutting up trees and splitting wood to burn in the fireplace that was in the new addition to our house. Some of that equipment would have been very handy during that time! After a few years and I had moved out, they finally sold that house to another party and had a new home built on my grandmother's land after she passed away. The new house did not get a fireplace. That wood cutting and hauling got old and expensive. Cost of chainsaws, maintenance, fuel, not to mention something to haul all that heavy wood to where it would then have to be stacked up and allowed to dry if possible. Hard to burn 'green' wood, plus causes excess creosote deposits in your chimney and the maintenance on that.

Some of these are just regular log splitters. the last one in particular seemed perfectly safe with 2 levers having to be squeezed together before it operates.

These machines remind me of an "adventure" I had when I was a young boy. I was about 13 years old, and my job at home was to make fire wood using a self-constructed (by my father) buzz saw. I did a lots of woodwork that day, and it always needed a little power to press the wood pieces against the saw blade; but suddenly I got a piece of very rotten wood and the saw did cut it in milliseconds; I lost my balance and fell towards the uncovered saw blade; but in the last moment, my hands grabbed the edge of the saw table..plate; looking down I saw the saw blade turning just a few centimeters below my chest...that was horrible. I never did that again with this saw... Hope you all understand my English since I´m German :-)...

My uncle was a mechanic who had a service station and garage out in the boonies, starting in 1930. He had a stripped down Model T Ford, actually an old Yellow Cab, with a big wood-saw blade welded to the drive shaft. This is where he chopped his firewood. He could not have designed it any more dangerously if he tried. He had all ten fingers, but only one eye. He lost the other one working on a car, but not by sawing wood. The Model T is still sitting there to this day, or rather what is left of it.

3:15 I have the same setup. Homemade pull behind trailer style on an i beam frame with an old Wisconsin motor powering a hyd. cylinder with about a 20” stroke. It splits 30” dia logs up to 20” long and tears through the knottiest wood

Theo ý kiến riêng của em thì em vẫn thích nhất với bác dùng dụng cụ bổ củi kết hợp với cái lò xo lớn vì nó an toàn hơn, ko tốn nhiên liệu mà còn giúp ta tăng cường sức khỏe

I need more information about the splitter in the frame 7:38 to 8:56. That machine is both quiet and efficient.Crazy in fact that machine is so quiet I think a newborn baby could sleep next to it

1:25 this is the safest one yet... The runway needs to be a trough or "V" shape to hold the wood more securely and prevent the user from having to steady the log. Also the blade should not get close enough to the die to do any damage to a hand.

I dunno. 5:40 looks like something the kids would have fun using and do a good job.

Ain't nothing any more dangerous than using a splitting ax. Just how smart the person is using the thing.
