Nope, I made a hydraulic splitter.

That looks great with straight grained wood. I’m not so sure it would be as easy with the knotty stuff I usually have to split.

Having one of them does actually make a whole lot of sense!

I use a tyre – put several logs inside then chop ’em up.

That wood looks incredibly easy to split.

same as mudshark.

but as mentioned above, its easier to do with straight-grained poplar.

But it’s also handy for keeping gnarly twisted crap in one place while you beat the crap out of it too.

Hope you two are using Winter Tyres at this time of year…. dont want any nasty slips with the axe…

Prepares for a tsunami of what tyres for log splitting threads.

One of those times when 650B would be a disadvantage. You don’t want the splitting coming alive.

A tyre is a bloody good idea… I think I’ll be retrieving one from the hedge later today.

I tried the tyre method for the first time yesterday afternoon. It works really well.
