I found a 3pt log splitter, removed the cylinder and beam from the support frame and bolted on 2 6" pieces of "C" channel on the 'underside' of the beam. I hang this splitter from my pallet forks. I built this to split 5' Maple rounds that a local tree trimmer cut up. I stood the rounds up on end (I had to use the tractor to do that) -- then drove up and lowered the splitter wedge to the top of the round and hit the remotes. The knife split the round and it busted apart into 2 halves. Since then, I've used this inverted splitter to split large and small pieces. It's slow and maneuvering the tractor to get lined up takes time, but it comes in handy for large jobs which come up now and then.
Thoughts on 3pt log splitters?

I bought this tractor for $1,500 dollars, it does a GREAT job running my 3 point splitter and just sips diesel so slooowly,
I haven't had to fix anything on the tractor; it just keeps on keeping on! And it's really nice to be able to easily move my splitter wherever I want.
Also with a hitch on the front, it's easy to move trailers too.
