Log splitter.

Watch your fingers!

To be fair it could be a child splitter also.

Little kid on-scene makes me nervous. I wouldn’t want a kid in the same zip code as that thing.

Using an axe is more fun.

Slightly less effort than an axe for a chance to get knocked out and backpain.

But did he soak them in wood first?

I watched it for a while then wondered why the cart didn't get full.

Always found chopping wood to be relaxing. So I am going to have to pass on this one.

literally me at OP's mom's house last night

It still looks mildly back breaking to me - if he could add a foot pedal to bring it up to speed or something I think that'd save the back

7 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 1

Hydraulics seem to help as well

7 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

Lol, ever use a splitting maul? This is a hell of an improvement as far as back breaking-ness is concerned!

So I'm assuming some sort of counterweight on the other end, but really want to see the whole rig.

It's just a heavy splitting maul on a lever with a car spring to make it bounce.

We had a wood burning stove as the only heat in New England growing up. I loved splitting wood with an axe. I miss the release. I'm a girl.

There is a fun tranquility to be found in chopping/splitting wood with an axe.

Got rid of so much teenage angst. And learned that if you wanted the house to be warm, you'd better work for it.

I'll keep my axe. That thing looks neat, but also looks like it's heavy and takes up a bunch of room.

7 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 0

that long handle is a concussion waiting to happen

7 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

That or a broken collar bone. Effing awful & unsafe handle design. The lateral bar on top is good: it's just in a bad spot.

7 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Really! Since he pulls down or lifts sprung weight, a short loop of heavy rope would serve, and remove a few inches of danger area.

I think the weight of the... well weight, will more than make up for it. No human can bring that much force down on the wood with just an ax

7 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

They have hydraulic splitters that are way safer and use more force. Just have to work a lever. This would be annoying

7 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 0

they do use gas and oil. I believe the advantage here is using alittle mechanical/physics advantage.

He is able to multiply and accurately target his force all while having zero electricity.

Judging by the trees and what he's wearing(not to mention stocking up on wood) it's probably just before winter maybe Oct 31?

You don't NEED 10..

7 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 1

It's a lot safer than an axe since you always know exactly where the point is coming down.

7 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 1

That blade has force but not speed. As long as his fingers never go between the wood and the blade (like by holding the sides) he's good.

7 years ago | Likes 29 Dislikes 0

Ahh.

7 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

As long as his fingers can be pushed away but not crushed, at most he'd need a bandaid. With gloves no harm at all. Just don't hold the top.
