Rebuilding my log splitter

I am in central NebrAska. Installed my stove last year. We heated our all winter with it only used propane a few times. I had to borrow a splitter last year to split my wood. I am in the process of rebuilding a 3point splitter I will take more pictures and post a thread about it. Found the page as a recommendation from YouTube channel Lifeinthefarmland

 

You are very talented!

Splitter is looking great fordguy64! Nice work.

 

So I’ve split around 2-3 cords with the mods that I have done.. all I can say is wow it makes it so much easier no more sore back! My wife loves it to. This is a big log I did yesterday

 

Out of curiosity would it be better to run some flat stock in the opposite direction on your table? Any hang ups of splits on it?

 

It would be better and I do plan to do it. I haven’t had anything hang up on it yet. The table is actually 2-3” below the top of the beam so everything has gone over it

 

I saw that but wasn't sure how it would handle uglies. Pretty awesome looking machine, especially compared to my first homemade rig.

 

Glad it’s working as well as it looks! Thanks for the updates.

 

Nice job, looks great

 

Why? Those are only flat on one side...just roll it forward or back a few inches...


Seriously though, nice work!

 

This is how the ram is mounted. Not the best pic but you get the idea
