Restoring the WEIRDEST Splitting Maul / Axe Ever Made

In this video I restore an Alltrade roller bearing assisted splitting maul. The general idea behind it is that the maul itself cracks the log, but the roller bearings help it slip along the long. This restoration didn't take much, but it was still fun to do.
