You can't see how much clearance there is between the ram and the blade so I question the wisdom of putting his hands there with the ram coming at the blade.
The other thing why don't he have the split wood feed off the end of the chute?
That is a neat idea.
Other than that I wounder how that would split a piece of oak or madron that has a lot of twist and a lot of knots in it.
