Well, as some of you may or may not know, the logsplitter I built was ripped of from my front yard. I doubt the scumbags who did it wiil be caught, but no matter, homeowners ins covered the loss.
This time I decided to make a bigger splitter. Insted of a 3" cylinder I got a 4" which should be roughly a 20 Ton unit compared to the old one at 8 tons. I picked up some 6" "H" beam to handle the extra load and the frame work will be 3/4" plate. I got it all at a used steel yard, really an old fashioned "junk yard", for 50 bucks. One heck of a deal.
I'll get pics up soon ,as the last thread was great documentation for the insurance company.
Oh, if I ever catch those bastages, I'll run THEM through the splitter!
