Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Are you still log splitting by staking on a larger piece? Log splitting tire stand makes the process much easier and pleasurable. Splitting with an axe has traditionally been hard on the body but it's definitely faster than using a log splitter so if there is anyway we can make the process easier, it would be worthwhile to explore
Log splitting tire stands helps you in chopping your logs into manageable pieces in many ways.
Your axe or maul will be near your waste height to make it a much more effective and more powerful strike.
The tire wraps around your logs and prevents them from fall;
You do not have to bend and pick them up ever time you strike with your axe.
The tire prevents a miss-strike to swing back on the ground or at yourself.
All your split logs will be in one place to be collected at the end of you logs splitting session.

This is a truly fantastic idea. I made mine with a 24 inch tire for a slightly more compact splitting block and I used 22 inch boards. This size is a little bit more manageable for making the assembly portable. I was concerned that the platform might not be solid enough to absorb the impact of the splitting, but it worked out perfectly even on top of a dirt ground. Can’t wait to put my new fire pit cover over it. just bought it from Amazon for $26. Got an old tire from my mechanics garbage dumpster, shined it up with tire shine. Looks like new. Thank you so much for this fantastic design. .Ben M.
Thanks for posting. I will share with friends and make one myself.
Thank you for sharing. Your video is by far the best one I have watched, straight to the point. I am going to use your dimensions to build mine.
Shouldn't you put holes at bottom of tire so that water does not collect and become a mosquito breeding area?
I built this after seeing your video and was able to get alot of wood split in quicker time...thanks for posting this!!!!!!!!! What I did: The tire I used was 30" diameter, I did 2 treated 4x4s at 30" (for the 2 on the ground, then 2 untreated 4x4s at 30" for the upper support then did 8- 2x4s across the top for decking and used 3-1/2" torx screws to assemble it all and did the washers with the screws to hold the tire in place.

Seeing how this one's made I have an idea for a short cut. Steel merchants often have coils of sheet metal delivered vertical on tophat pallets, these are often thrown out when the steel is fed through slitting or cropping machines. Go to your local steel merchants and ask if you can take a pallet from a tophat coil.

Good video I understand making a stand for the tire but why not just use two tires

because you want the bottom off the ground.. you cant have the logs on the ground. Logs need to be raised up to your near waste height.

@@EdenGreenFarmandAdventures That stand has the logs lifted 8ish inches.... you must have dwarfs splitting the wood. Nowhere neare waist high
Don't reuse that tire it will leak.
What about just using a palette?
Low profile, wide tread tires work best. If you have to use tires like the one in the video cut off half the sidewall. And skip all the unnecessary wood parts! All you need is the tire!

The wood part is essential, especially for older people. This way you don't have to bend over backwards.. I will make my even taller..
