Jags homebuilt splitter

Nice work; what kind of wood is that it really split that stuff up, should dry quick never saw wood split like that.

Good job nice pictures

Old farm boy, nice job.

Nice work Jags! Nothing like a bit of good ole American ingenuity. Most folks can't even change a tire these days much less build bada$$ log splitter!

So how much power does this thing produce in tons?

Jags,

Do you have a picture of your splitter from the log lift side with the lift lowered (no wood on it)? I would like to see the layout of how those pillow blocks are attached a little better.

Jags, anything you would change with the lift? I have an AC winch laying around and already have electricity at the splitter. Seems like a no brainer for me.

What a hunk o' crap Jags. There's no rear bagger. If it was zero turn I might be impressed.

sheesh

Love,

OK- that's pretty sweet. I can think of stuff I'd want to plug in there in the yard.

Are there plans to install a patio umbrella holder?

That's a joke folks, as another member has said item on their splitter - which I happen to think is a great(!) idea. We have a portable canopy that we set up over our splitting area. We also set up a box fan blowing on us in hot weather, etc.

Heck - If ya get the 'frig' and umbrella mabe you can get the Cat in The Hat to come run it!

Very nice.

Like it! especially the log lifter.

Thats a hell of a splitter, did you ever think of makiing the wedge move onto a stationary plate that way your not chasing the round off the end of the splitter mine works the way yours does and I often thought it would work better. The splitter was free just had to repair the valve so I can't groan to much. love the log lifter I have to pick the round up I uasally have to break them into smaller pieces with one of those hand cranked splitters to lift them

Now I see the table extension great job,

Looks great, Jags. Not sure how I've missed them, but this is the first time I've seen pictures of your splitter.

Great pics . . . cool splitter.

That's fantastic. This is probably a dumb question but did you have to use a welder? Thats one tool that I dont have so it kind of prohibits my metal building plans.

Nice job again!

Jags
That awesome splitter on that youtube link in the other thread... How hard would it be to weld a 'table' onto your beam... and then remove the wedge and replace it with a splitting box like that one had in the vid? The top of the splitting box will need to be big enough to hold the remainder of large logds.

It seems like it wouldnt be too hard...pretty much anyone can do it to their splitter

whatcha think?

I like the mini fridge idea too.

What video?

YouTube - zendle38's Channel This is a splitter I put together listed as bill splits under zendle38 it is very much like this one only I have Hydrolic motor wench to lift. It now has a lift much like the one pictured that is lifted by the wench and makes a table. This shows early on, also note detent on valve only for someone who know how to operate not for kids or unexperenced operator but saves much time when working alone. The govenor fixed is a clip of my sawmill and 671 that we took from truck to run it a friend posted these. ZENDLE38 on google will get you to clips if anyone interested.
