    Works great for making cookies. What else?

    Cudos for developing something different, but really, all that effort for as impractical a machine as that is.....

    D*mn my dyslexia is getting worse! That's a 253 C.I.

    The company actually manufactures splitters and processors.

    Be fun to watch at a state fair or logging show.
    Maybe you could put a longer bar & cut a whole log length load, right on the trailer :)

    Great little (big) showpiece. Fun for the shows but hardly practical. Kinda like the freak of saws at the county fair in October.

    Fixed it to 253...

    I wouldn't mind having one, but as noted above? I want the rest of the splitter :)

    Thanks Dex,

    It's almost like the evolutionary descendant of the drag saw.

    Now that's pretty neat.
