No the piston is bent. She tried to split a piece of dogwood . You would think the relief valve would open first though

I've got a splitter that looks just like that.
Except for the pieces shaped like bananas.
That picture is going to flash in my head now every time I use it. I've brought the thing to a stop a few times trying to split something that was just a bit too tough - I'll likely let up on the button a bit earlier now than I used to.
Wouldn't have expected something quite like that to happen though - holy.

I always wondered how well those small electric splitters work…guess I can stop wondering. Sorry about your spouse's bad luck huff.

Oh so you mean that is not for those crooked rounds? Sometimes there are just some that you need a banana shaped splitter for

If by "easier" you mean giving her something other than her maul or ax.... Sounds like you got a good woman there. 
Oh.. and she got that log on there too!!
Yep.... she's a keeper.

The "pull" rod on the left side had to become disconnected in order for this to happen, No?
I real liked the splitter though, you could stand up while splitting . was going to try and set up some sort of foot pedal on it. didn't like that your hands had to be on
Yes , the pull rod snapped off at the weld connecting it to the splitting end bracket. must have been made in China.

haha . Actually a kind of lied, she was making my life easier. But she would never use an axe though. she will go buy kindling if I don't leave her enough.
Get her off the steroids before she breaks the pusher off the splitter and beats you over the head with it.
