Amazing Homemade Log Splitter Wood Processing Machines | Firewood Processor!

[@poowg2657]

When I was in college in the 70s I worked for a man who had a Double A Ford truck that carried a tilt-up well pounding rig with a wedge where the hammer would be. When we got to the customer's site we would jack up the left rear and take the wheel off. A drum was bolted on to drive a 4 foot circle saw to cut up the wood. After cutting the wood a PTO was engaged to drive the well pounding rig in a verticle position. It cycled every 1.5 seconds and could split logs of just about any length but no more than 2 feet in diameter. As long as the log was placed on the up stroke there were no issues.

Parabéns pelo projeto muito bacana

All the wood looks as if it was selected for its straight grain and softness to make it look easy.

[@rcnelson]

Some other splitting videos are similar. Their wood looks and acts nothing like the tough, irregular wood I've split.

[@wietseterpstra8295]

I suspect that the most of these machines will have trouble with oak or another hardwood and pieces full of burls, beach and willow you can split with a butterknife.

[@wietseterpstra8295]

Birch not beach.

I love the fact people can build a great machine and all it takes is the money and will 😊😊😊

I have Looked on eBay trying to Find Gear Boxes that work on a Low Ratio But they are Nothing Like the Gear Boxes like the ones used I would like someone to Guide me in the Right direction Please to where I can obtain one

Good day from Ontario Canada The 1st video the wedge is on a angle which I think is better because it is not all full load at once Thanks

What kind of tree is the white wood, looks soft

Здорово! Отличное видео!

[@joewoodchuck3824]

The first one is a big problem by always making the operator squat. There's no reason it has to be that low. I general i like the simplest ones the best. Hydraulic always seems overly complicated for what it does.

[@christinamoneyhan5688]

I am watching these machines with great interest however all I see them doing is splitting straight grain wood and short in length that could be split with a short axe.

[@Usercomanchione]

Very true. Cool design on many of these splitters but won't split wood like eucalyptus with a tangled tough grain that will need to be sheered through the entire log.

Super. Thank you

Have these people fingers and arms even now?

[@joewoodchuck3824]

Yes. The "dangers" are in improper operations rather than design.

[@patmorrow6872]

Where the H did these people find all the knottless wood?

[@CampJe]

What kind of gear boxes are these guys using? I have like everything I need to make the kind at 6ish minutes but have no clue about the gear box or ratios.

[@CampJe]

Well I finally figured it out. Gear reducer boxes used on machinery. Just bought a 40/1 box for a lathe.

[@bigears4014]

Most are using tractor final drives

all straight grain wood, that dosnt seem very hard. you could axe split that a million times faster.

Сокира,або ніж,не правильно зроблено,маю на увазі ,з такої науки як фізика,якби було продумано по іншому ,то і не було би великого навантаження на робочі деталі,воно працювало би набагато легше,і відповідно був би довший термін експлуатації агрегату.

Poplar is easy to split,try some knotty pin oak or white oak and see how you do.
