robertw1 Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 (edited) our old wood stove used a wheel barrow of wood every day so dad bought a log splitter a few years ago so I decided to try and make one.

robertw1 Posted February 6, 2012 Author Share Posted February 6, 2012 That is small compared to some of the logs I've split on it. I split one about 1 meter in diameter and about 50 cm thick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
