Slide action wood splitter - GIF

Pretty cool for such a light dog chain. No Knots of any significance to create havoc. Strictly for fresh softer woods & not like woods old kodger mentioned.

Would have been much more entertaining with a Swedish Bikini Babe doing it!

I believe Swede bathing beauties could muck out Venetian canals, change oil in a semi, or wax an army tank and look good doing it.

I know it works and works well for him but whirling spinning things with high energy and sharp cleaving ax like protrusions scare the bejeevers out of me to be around and I'm not afraid of much

[Rattlerjake]

That is just pure dangerous! The height alone makes it dangerous. All it takes is just one wrong hit and a piece of that wood will go flying right into his head!

If I needed a splitter I'd love to have one of these.

[Rattlerjake]

Yeah wouldn't we all! But why didn't they make the cutting heads large enough to do the whole log all at once? For $9900 I can buy all the cord word I'll need for the next 20 years (or more), and not have to do the work either! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects...s-in-the-world

I just invoked Benny Hill elsewhere in HMT.net; and now here he IS!
Maybe channeled him instead? Always confused about that.
