  • i saw a lot of log splitter turn in to a forge press, and always thought that making it like a real press instead of just using the splitter was the best idea, i'm just really happy that i'm not the only one to had this idea!

  • Thank you for this! I have been wrestling for months about whether to build one, and how big a splitter I would need, so I'm encouraged to know that even a six or seven ton one will squish as well as yours does.

  • That's a great press for 300 . Think I'll hunt a log splitter and build me one. Having cancer has me limited on how long I can swing hammers. God Bless

  • ahoj, krásna práca, akoto že ti to funguje aj keď je štiepačka otočená vertikálne? idem si takú kúpiť no píšu v popise výrobku že je použiteľná len v horizontálnej polohe, upravoval si niečo s čerpadlom, olejom a podobne?

    • @@CharlesJonesblades so the pump and everything works in vertical position? I've been wondering about that. And your bottom die is basically lifted up from where the part would normally press the log up to the splitter?

  • Hi mate how did you get your log splitter to run vertically?? I have the same one but I have to run it horizontally as I tried to run it like yours but it wouldn’t run vertically did you have to change anything before you built the frame?? Thanks in advance Scott from Australia

  • Nice build and that kukri is f****** amazing however this being the first video of yours that has come across my recommended; it would have been nice if your overview actually included using it so we could see it in action. That video adjustment would have earned you a subscriber but not this time 🤷
