Comments: - This is awesome. That wood is too big to go through most sawmills. They can now be ground or processed into firewood. Most of these great butt cuts usually end in the dump.

I wish my wood stove could handle chunks this size. Stock up once and you're good for winter. When you live off the grid, you tend to think things like this

I can see the use of it. Splitting logs for a small belt mill, splitting logs to make it easier to install a regular splitter, and often separating mine supports.

this splitter is made by the same company that manufactures firewood processors. it is designed only for splitting logs that are too large to fit in the firewood processor. they can then put the smaller shredded pieces into the processor and still process that wood as firewood.

While I'm showing off by splitting some knotty wood, I can think of several reasons for splitting long logs - split rails for fencing, split boards for certain special boatbuilding needs, any application that may depend on long lengths for woodworkers shredding large logs - uses of this machine are only a matter of imagination. is limited
