That is one of the craziest things I have ever seen. Im speechless. Moving pretty good with 1hp. What if the horse started galloping. Imagine how many cph (cords per hour) you could get done!
I'm wondering if the pitch of the conveyor is what keeps him walking? That was different, maybe Amish?
The Amish would just rent a gas powered splitter to get around their 'beliefs' I'm guessing its Eastern Europe soviet era.
Clever. I hope the horse gets some extra oats for it's efforts. That gives me an idea. Tell your wife to invite her girlfriends over for a free workout on your new portable gym treadmill!
Showed my girls the video. They think I really blew it buying the gasser. They want the horse or better yet a pony!
It would be interesting to see it stop. The conveyor would have a natural tendency to keep going especially with the flywheel on the splitter. You could see in the video where the horse tried to slow down & it bumped the cross board in the back of the stall then picked the pace back up.
