Is there a stop on the conveyor for the large log or do you just do it by eye. that's about the only thing on the system that's puzzling me. thanks

[drmiller100]

do it by eye.

i put a paint mark on the table at the length i want. real world is when u get near the end of the log you can cheat one way or the other so you don't have stupid short log at the end.

there is a quick release on the hinge system for the saw. it is a hitch pin, about 3 seconds to put it on or off.

then set the saw on the ground and fuel it like normal.

I've had a lot of private messages asking for the saw hinge system, so i'm selling those if you pm me.

What happens if you get your glove stuck between the push plate and the log? Can you get to the return control without chopping your hand off? ?

[drmiller100]

yes, you can easily reach the control valve while it is running

this splitter has a 30 inch stroke, so the control valve is a way back so it doesnt interfere.

The next one I build will be a 20 inch stroke, so the valve will be 10 inches closer.

wow that is a slick setup you have there. hats off to your creativeness. The only thing that seemed to be missing was the fridge full of ice cold smooth ones after your done.

[mavoel2001]

how much would you charge for the plans and specs on your outfit

[CaptainJoe9]

Looks like you need to clean that pile of saw dust up ASAP.
