kinetic splitter using some inertia w those massive wheels... so cool , looks dangerous but if you commit to keeping your hands towards the base you will be alright...
That has got to be the coolest farm built spitter ever. Probably cracked the cylinder on the big motor leaving water in it or something and found a way to make it useful. so good.
If you noticed it. that is a larger dead hit and miss engine the small one is sitting on top of. It had a splitting wedge welded to it's piston and the cylender head is removed. If the weren't scrapped in ww2 a lot of them were chopped up and made into firewood splitters.
my dad sure loved these old engines we had one sitting out front of the funeral home running after he passed. He found an Olds hit and miss in a ladies flower bed half buried, after a lot of work and extracting every stuck bolt or drilling it out and re tapping them. With some valve and piston work he was able to get it running and re painted it. There are not too many people around that could start it if they had to.
Fantastic machine & that engine will run forever , but why do you need your wood splitting so small if the length fits in the fire why split it . The wood will last longer as it was and that means less work less mess less wood.
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL THING. IT TELLS ME ALOT ABOUT THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE OWNED AND RESPECTED THIS TREASURE A WORKING PIECE OF HISTORY. THERE HISTORY ALSO THE INGENUITY AND CRAFTSMANSHIP OF THE LIKE. COOL, MAKES ME FEEL GOOD, TO JUST HEAR IT RUN IN HARMANY. IT SCREEMS "MADE IN AMERICA" MAY GOD BLESS THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND TO THE REPUBLIC FOR WHICH IT STANDS ONE NATION UNDER GOD WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL. THANK YOU, YOU MADE ME PROUD PERIOD.
It burns what, gasoline? There were a few of those engines around when iwas a kid many years ago
Top engine is a Fairbanks Morse “Z” motor? Love it!
Very cool, thanks for sharing.

Why not spit oak thats soft wood
Can still outperform todays best lol... Theres always a reason that good things don't stay
Something my grandfather could have put together. And I don't think he ever heard of OSHA.
I find this fascinating! Thanks for sharing the story behind it as well.

Beautiful machine, thank you for showing us.
That's a beautiful machine 👍
Could that engine run any slower
Cool, I bet with some practice you could split a lot of wood.
Safer than many others I have seen. That is very elegant.

She’s beautiful

If you think this is dangerous then you should not be around any power tools at all. Simple. Don't put your hand in front of the ram.
I love this!!!
Volume is way low
No danger of finger loss , the split head doesn't hit anything . Top design
Now that's what I call Kick'n it old school!

You could heat your soup up in the cooling tank for lunch.
No volume, let's just see it work.
A 3 horse hit and miss would destroy modern 20 horse
my girlfriend really likes the design of that.

Your sound not loud enough 🤭

Hold the fuck camera still
Wow! That's awesome & slightly terrifying! Thank you for sharing & kudos for maintaining that epic contraption.
looking at the sparkplug i would say time to replace.
looks like it could split rocks.
Fairbanks Morse, hot bulb?
love it
That is so cool
That's absolutely awesome. Gotta say besides a ICBM that the single most dangerous machine I've ever seen. I do imagine it helped weed out the idiots.
Don't care anything about the yak, just get on with it!!!!
Your cameraman needs to take the camera out of his mouth!
Thanks Pa!! You built something good for the home!!!
У вас в Европе даже даже дрова гнилые !!!!!!!!!!!!! Как все европейцы ! :-)
Bad Ass ..... I'd be damned proud of that myself ... Represnt
That is one fantastic machine, I love it! What a great ingenious build, thanks for sharing it with us.
Wow ! I love it.
My wife could use this..
