Thought it would be nice to group our pics togeather here,to give others ideas.Ienjoy looking at the different designs.
HERES MINE;
This old girl has been a work in progress for 15 years.Im always changing somethingguess i like to fabricate.Most recent was the direct mounting of the pump to the old BRIGGS.WASNT EAST BECAUSE THIS MOTOR HAD NO HOLES to mount the NORTHERN adapter to.Ihad to make a faceplate and it had to be perfect so the halves aligned properly.Im experimenting with a homemade crane for the large rounds,although im still waiting for a set of lifting tongs to arrive.WILLpost more on that when it arrives
This splitter is towed through the woods with an ATV.The wood falls off the back.Ibuilt a taller pusher than i had when you last saw it so i can split certain sized ones in half,slide it backon and split it again [as in pic 1]
Ihave a northern 2 stage pump,northern tank,northern filter,Automatic return dent valve.Its a very old 5 horse briggs [think it even has points]but it always runs good.Wheels are from an old boat trailer.
Who knows if i see something i like for designs in this thread i got plenty of gas in my cuttin torches
