I ran across a picture of an inverted log splitter hanging from pallet forks. I found a 3pt log splitter on the internet for sale. This particular model was bolted to its stand. I unbolted it from the frame, removed the hydraulic plumbing and turned it over. I used the same holes and welded 6" C-channel to make the holder for the pallet forks to slip through. I added 4ft hoses and quick connect hydraulic connectors to attach the hoses on the front of the tractor.
I was able to stand a 4ft hard Maple slab on edge and split it -- it broke right in half. I still have to get on/off the tractor to position the pieces -- but this setup has been very useful.
