I hurt my back with my axe, and hurt my back in the shop making DIY stuff, can't win. Life's short, just do what makes you happy. I did martial arts for years, so I'm pretty efficient with my 30$ axe and will probably always use it. my uncle cut 2 fingers off with a splitter, maybe axe is safer.

This is really awesome. No noise, no gas, no hydraulic fluid. No leaky lines. Looks like built to last a lifetime. Wonder what a price point would be. I would think if in $600 range there would be a real market for it.
@@Clem.H.Fandango noise isn't really the concern, it's getting machines to do everything for us that is concerning, but at long as you're chopping wood yourself, that's healthy
@@josephdavis4956 why would you spend 3h in chopping wood when you can do it in 1h? its about doing the job in a productive and efective way in less time :D
Good design, and awesome build. Love to see people reuse older things to make new things. Anybody can run out and buy new materials, but it takes a Craftsman to reuse materials from something that was already there. Great job, I especially like the fact that it could be removed when not in use.
It looks fun, and I'm always looking for alternative ways of doing things, so thanks a lot for the video. But in this case, I can do all this with my axes and merlins, and I think I'd be faster - and I'm the other side of 60 years old. I'm watching the guy and trying to guage how much effort using the device takes, and it doesn't seem to be much less than swinging an axe. Each to his own of course, but correct use of an axe is elegant, efficient and effective. I have to deal with some really difficult and large logs at times - I call them 'the awkward squad'. I'm wondering how this device would deal with them, especially when there are knots in them. I see that an assistant is helping to position the larger logs here, but I'm dealing with much bigger and more difficult things than that. I'm not sure that this device would be that easy to use with such wood - I'm talking a meter or more in diameter. I just walk around them and split them as I go, definitely faster I'd say and no need to move them (in order to postion them under the device). Having to lift logs, large or small, onto the block before you split them is definititely going to slow you down as well as limit what you can split to what you can physically lift that high - I'm splitting French oak and hornbeam for example, and you're not going to be able to lift the larger logs into place like that Perhaps when I get older, but for the moment, I can't see the advantage, except perhaps that it takes time to learn use an axe or merlin properly; I have been doing this since I was very young, and I have noticed that some young people recently arrived in the village find this difficult - but it's their first experience of wood splitting, so I guess that's not surprising. It's well worth learning how to use an axe, for cutting and splitting, in my view.
This design seems very efficient. I bet it would really extend the age that one could manually split wood. I know a few old timers who might get a kick out of this.
Yep, I'm one of them. Early seventy's and just about to build one. I may have a stroke, when using it, but at least I'll be nice and warm, when I am recovering. LOL.
This is just great design, safe and has no turning pieces that can grab you really good !!Its manual, not heavy to operate , and real safe!! good design!!!
yes this is the way i would go to if i ever get around to actually making it... would be less labor if you can manage to keep the cutting on ground level tho...save a step
Looks good. Like to see you splitting some wood with knots and from further up tree where branches grew out of trunk. Much tougher to split than the straight grained wood in your demo.
Design looks good to me. My only suggestion would be to add a drop bar from the handle and have it at about waist height. Easier than reaching up and working at shoulder height?
i love the design overall but you should have like a max length over travel cable or something. if your hands slips and that arms pivots up past the springs max deflection they might pop out and that thing comes back down hard... but it can only come down in one directions so it isn't that dangerous I suppose.
This design has been kicking around the Internet for years now. It's better than everything else because it allow you to control the strength of the blow and the timing, so impossible to chop off fingers.
Excellency. I have a kinetic 37 ton log spitte. I broke mine trying to bust through some knarley hickory. Replacement parts were cheap though and next week I will be splitting again. I'm thinking about making one of these for one of my less fortunate friends. We need smart tools like this if SHTF. No power needed.
Beautiful job! I like the telescoping arm idea a lot. I have had a couple different engine operated wood splitters and I'm tired of them breaking down in the hydraulic Rams and the engine components and the fuel and then noise and the pollution and is this is better than going to the gym you can get some form of a Core workout as well as exercise your shoulders and even legs if you work it right. I plan on putting on a plate to the top so that I can vary the amount of weight that I place on top perhaps in the form of cinder blocks or large Rock's. The design for your wedge seems excellent how is it holding up? I will be using a solid cast iron wedge, just because I found this part at a barn sale and it will save me some welding and cutting time.
a few things I would consider first is a longer swing that would require a longer spring and a lower working point but for me that is a bit high to start with the second thing is the head I would like something a bit longer and something with a maul type wedge near the top but the low attack angle is prevent the wedge from getting really stuck but for those really tough logs a bit of flare will really help to split them as I burn logs in my fire place up 28 inch long or even 30 in in some cases and I have a few really big rounds that are like 18 inch or more I currently will not split them but burn them whole
some might wounder what about a log rolling out well I have placed some 4 inch by 8 inch by 16 inch cinder blocks on their side in front the fire place this allows some air to get in holds some heat and prevents ash from spilling out after a long fire and stops logs from rolling out and then its topped with fire brick to hold in more heat this still leaves plenty of air flow for the fire note we do not use a fire box either just right onto the fire place floor in the ashes so if you want extra air flow just add a fire box to hold your logs out of the ash but this method offers more heat transfer and a better burn of the embers more air flow will be hotter and cleaner but also quicker and that is more heat up the chimney and more fire wood to maintain the fire we really want an inset or a heat exchanger making for a more ideal setup no need for bricks and then we would likely be cutting closer to the size your doing in this clip
Its an almost pure copy of a traditional Eastern European design. The head still isn't heavy enough though. Usually designed to be used one handed, take almost no effort. Some are foot operated.
That is a great video and a excellent build! What is the diameter and or weight rating on the coil springs? I know what me and son will be building soon.
The very first comment below the video is a link to a page where you can download the dimensions. Weight is given here: th-cam.com/video/fmvs_LlqVr0/w-d-xo.html
Proposal for improvement: Instead of splitting it, throwing it on the ground and then picking it up again to put it on a trailer... Get the trailer there in the first place and toss it on there right after splitting. Saves some energy for more splitting... Nice work!
Brilliant idea, although not very compact. Maybe you could guide the inertial mass on a vertical rail and support it on springs just like the other one?

I have a Yard Max 35 ton splitter so I don't have a use for, nice home made tool though, but I'd like to know where you got the hitch ball you put on the lawn tractor. Is it a production made product?
I'd sure like to see you try that on some wood that was not dry and completely straight grained. That wood you are using would be easily split with a light duty axe.
There are already a lot of you here and you keep writing the same thing. I just don't understand why one of you doesn't make your own video, I'd like to see how you're doing with that axe:). And above all, film how you cut those excellent knots, I'm looking forward to it. I don't understand why I should chop dry wood??? I will bring whole trees, cut them into logs, if I see that there are knots somewhere, I will cut them straight with a chainsaw so that the log will fit into the boiler. And then I will pinch the logs right away, why should I wait until they are dry, I don't understand what you are trying to say.
What size spring is needed i would imagine an f350 spring would have too much tension as would a f250 spring then more weight would have to be added to balance the arm. But i suppose if you had 50lbs balanced on the arm you would slice through like butter.
I'd be happy to split that nice, straight-grained timber all day long with an axe. But I'd really like to see your Thor's Hammer splitting some Tuart timber, green or seasoned. Tuart is an Australian tree found in South Western Australia.
They want the wedge to be heavy. That is why they poured the liquid lead into it. If it is a nice design, do not try to change it. These things have been used extensively. I call it the Russian Woodpecker.

Design idea…instead of having to dig a hole for support. How about giving it a makeover with adjustable “L” shaped legs that will be supported by driving your car or atv on. Using the vehicles weight to keep thors hammer stable? Just a thought…
I have a hammer in a stable place, where I bring in whole trees, cut them into 30 cm logs with a chainsaw, and then split the whole pile. So I didn't plan for it to be mobile
I do have a questionor two brother.How many hours of work would you say you have invested in this WONDERFUL build? What did the return springs come from? huge thumbs up man
It depends piece by piece, wood by wood. I prepare the wood with a chainsaw, so I try to cut knots and branches so that I don't have to split them on the splitter. Of course, the power of this splitter cannot be compared to hydraulics, but compared to hydraulics, it is much faster.
When I first saw this,,,,,,I thought it was an advertisement . This was so neat and clean. It looked like it was from , lets say, TRACTOR SUPPLY. Then I found out it was home made. GREAT JOB ! I'm proud of who ever made it.

What size spring is needed i would imagine an f350 spring would have too much tension as would a f250 spring then more weight would have to be added to balance the arm. But i suppose if you had 50lbs balanced on the arm you would slice through like butter.
Very nice. Someday I would like to copy that
Wish I had one of these! No fuel, no electricity, effortless! Perfect for homesteads! Just need the tools and materials to make one...hahaha.
Nice video and excellent design on your splitter. Did you make your wedge from one piece of steel plate?
great video thanks for posting , i was wondering how long does that wood pile last ????
Good idea! E nice design.... Top
Thank you
I'd be happy to split that nice, straight-grained timber all day long with an axe. But I'd really like to see your Thor's Hammer splitting some Tuart timber, green or seasoned. Tuart is an Australian tree found in South Western Australia.
Super!!! Bravo!!!
Собачка гарненька,а дровокол КЛАС.
Hi! Nice design.
Not to waste energy by compressing the spring, I would add a counterweight and a much smaller spring to the other side of the pivot
They want the wedge to be heavy. That is why they poured the liquid lead into it.
If it is a nice design, do not try to change it. These things have been used extensively.
I call it the Russian Woodpecker.
Troll.
NICE splitter looks professionally built. Nice video!!!!
Seems to work pretty well.
What a great tool, and very well made.
Paráda,někdo tu psal,že můžou štípat ženy i senioři.Věřím tomu,a rád bych si postavil něco takového,snad bych to ovládal i jako invalida.Všechny palce nahoru.Plánek by nebyl? :-) DÍK!!!
Design idea…instead of having to dig a hole for support. How about giving it a makeover with adjustable “L” shaped legs that will be supported by driving your car or atv on. Using the vehicles weight to keep thors hammer stable? Just a thought…
I have a hammer in a stable place, where I bring in whole trees, cut them into 30 cm logs with a chainsaw, and then split the whole pile. So I didn't plan for it to be mobile
I do have a questionor two brother.How many hours of work would you say you have invested in this WONDERFUL build? What did the return springs come from? huge thumbs up man
Just Awesome man great build.
How good does it work when there are branches in the wood??
It depends piece by piece, wood by wood. I prepare the wood with a chainsaw, so I try to cut knots and branches so that I don't have to split them on the splitter. Of course, the power of this splitter cannot be compared to hydraulics, but compared to hydraulics, it is much faster.
Very good job, but imho if you don't have the iron at home, for the same price, here in Italy, probably you can buy an hydraulic log splitter
На следующее лето сделаю такой.
Genius! Personally, I might make the handle a little longer. It may provide a little more leverage and help keep your toes intact.
Its a very good design that is quite safe to use
Wish you success on selling these ! ! !
Thanks for sharing the video
Impressive design and attention to detail, you have good skills as an Engineer at a young age.
When I first saw this,,,,,,I thought it was an advertisement . This was so neat and clean. It looked like it was from , lets say, TRACTOR SUPPLY. Then I found out it was home made. GREAT JOB ! I'm proud of who ever made it.
Thank you
Našiel som toto video ako doporučené. Výborná práca. Máte k tomu už plány? (čítal som viaceré reakcie kde to pýtali, ale tie boli už rok staré a vtedy ste plány ešte nemali.
Dá sa vypočítať, koľko to dáva silu? (elektrické stiepačky od 4 do 8 alebo viac ton).
Potreboval by som niečo podobné, ale niečo menšie. Mám bukové drevo, 25 až 35 cm priemer. Dlžký si môžem určiť sám, metrovice ešte nie sú spilené.
Excellent video. I hope splitter / thief get some credit for his contribution.
Good afternoon. I will forgive you to specify each Izmir or detail to the smallest detail, especially how many cm spring cost from the stop and where else poured liquid metal? I really liked your installation, I want to do this, please help
Когда красиво нет слов . Бог для Адама Еву сделал, правда с рёбрами перемудрил, нижние лишние( Евы так считают).Этот дровокол- совершенство ( Я так думаю) Сделаю такой-же красивый. Лишние отверстия или уберём или переставим, это про Еву.
Отлично молодец как заводской!
Ahoj, můžeš tady připsat blueprint/rozměry? Je něco, co bys vylepšil po letech používání? Díky!
Ahoj, vznikalo to ze starého šrotu, ale kdybych to dělal znova, tak bych to rameno co spojuje kladivo a stojan s pružinou udělal z jednoho kusu jaklu. Plány ke stažení : www.patreon.com/posts/zakladni-rozmery-37196753
Man how much would you charge to make me one and ship it to central Florida minus the lead of course I can do that part? Never mind I see you are in another country. It will cost a LOT of money.
But is is a GREAT build. if you were over here I would pay to have one built.
That was some nice dry wood, correctly dried 👏.
Do you have plans/material list for this splitter...would like to purchase a set so I can build one here in Michigan USA..
I’d like plans too
I would really like for you to send me the plans on how to build your DIY Theo's Hammer Wood splitter. I really like this set-up. Thank you
Thanks for the good idea!
Где бы прикупить такой?)👍👍👍
Great invention.
