Looks very good. Fancy making another one and if so how much would it cost.

am well so far just doin a rough count i think its costing me about £500 for so far but im still modifing it at the im puttin grates on each side and bagging of shutes atm its a work in progress:laugh1: but there has been a couple o local people on to me about one but i don really want to make them and put them out there till i have it completly sorted, but il keep ya posted!!

Time to get the plasma cutter and welder out me thinks, that style of log splitter looks a lot more productive for no extra effort

Would not be concerned about a bagging off chute so long as the bench was high enough to fit an IBC container under each side and the table long enough on each side to fill the centre of the IBC.

Hi,

what is the setup that comes off the hydraulic lever for.

That looks just the dogs b######s are you planning to make and sell them as would be interested in one just one thing to get them ce marked it would need to be operated by both hands but I would prefer the way you have it set up lets you pick up next bit while last one is splitting its self--would love a look at it across your way (ballykelly ) a couple of times a year

looks as good as the tempest one

 

have you got any pics of the piece from the ram to the bit that pushes the wood againt the blades ?
