I’ve watched lots of log splitter vids and checked out the price of log tables and other extras with your ideas and equipment it’s so much cheaper and custom! Fantastic

That’s why I made it. Was way to much money to buy. I do a lot of welding and fab work. I thought it was easy to do. I’m sure you can do it. The hardest part was figuring out the angels. As you can tell I screwed that up a few times. Lol. But hay we learn from our mistakes. Good luck.

I have the same splitter: love the splitter, but the design causes the split log to nearly fall onto the fuel tank and/or hydraulic reservoir filler cap. Using your design, I built a similar setup. The table prevented the fuel tank issue, plus really saves my back. Many thanks for the vid!

Thank you. But if you make one. Add a second pair of hole in the middle. And yes the table dose keep the logs from hitting those. I do plan on adding a smaller table to the other side. I keep dropping logs on my feet. Lol. Good luck.

I bought one of those plasma cutters, used it for years cut 3/8 plate with no trouble. Try turning your torch into the direction of travel.

Nice log table. I have the same log splitter. I made a table, too. Also made a log lifter attached to the end with a small truck bed frame and electric winch. Works great and saves my back. Love the log splitter.

Thank you my fellow patriot. It’s been so long since I have made a video. I really need to move my ass. I think I’ll make a comeback with a forge build.

Why don't you guy switch the back stop and wedge around modify it where it's a push thru and build a log lift and switch out the Valve into a auto return that also have one that control the log lift. I think you'll have on hell of a log splitter if you do these modifications.

You guys are already have the skills to make these modifications. I don't. Talking to all that have the same type splitter. All these designs and most likely made in China.
