I built the worlds UGLIEST log splitter (and it's awesome...)

Building a log splitter with various random parts I had laying around

Andys little homestead, 85 machines and only 4 Batteries between them all! lol Love your stuff andy!

[lawrenceedwards]

Another great video, Andy!! I’d love it if you would upload the ‘missing’ year of videos here. I don’t Facebook and I’d love to see how you got to where you are on the homestead.

I love seeing the viewer count go up. We need more people like Andy on youtube.

[TerryHaupt]

it amazes me how well you just adapt to what needs to take place. I see less and less of that every day, folks seem to just complain about a problem, you walk in see an opportunity and come up with a solution :-) we need more of that in the world.

Love seeing Luke in this episode!!! Great kid!!! God bless you and your whole family!!!

[fureveryoungfarm]

Lmao. Can we start a go fund me to get Andy a 3rd battery for the farm? I love this family.

Hey andy, I know you're not always happy but God damn it when you are happy you are one of the most fun people to watch. I love your sense of humor. I hope it always survives.

Not bad adaptation. Suggestion, spin the splitter the other way so that the anvil on the side away from the pump, so a falling log doesn't damage the hoses

[bluerebel]

Great ingenuity. My grandfather built the one I have years ago, and it's powered by a Ford pinto engine. I used to tell him all it needed was a steering wheel, and we could drive it to the wood pile, lol

Andy, a 2 stage pump would make a huge difference in the cycle speed. I built my own splitter kit of junk i had laying around as well but the pump and motor is splurged on a little and bought new from Ebay.

I have a splitter from like the 70’s that I repowered with a harbor freight engine. It ain’t fancy or fast, but it’ll split knotty post oak without looking back. Dryer stuff tends to kinda explode into 2 projectiles lol. If I ever part with it, I’ll be more than happy to donate it to you.

[TinManKustoms]

Its always a great day when you can cobble random stuff together without spending money and get some work done. Now heres a thought maybe add some quick couplers to the hoses and you have a portable hydraulic power pac to run various items. If you take it a step further find a bigger trailer and mount the portable welder, the hydraulic power pac and a air compressor and you'll have the ultimate work trailer

[ArcticWidow-ekce]

Love your boy in the bed of the pickup with everything crossed while you tried to start the thing up.

[BradSchuyler]

Love it! Another Andy logistical challenge solved by repurposing previously repurposed components... Once it tests out, then you fine tune it. Brings a tear to my eye.

[chuckhunter]

It ain’t ugly if it works. Great job.

[patrichorberg]

Hello Andy with family! With that pump you get a wood split that will split about anything! Low flow rate but hige pressure, hige flow = low pressure. As someone before say in the comments, change pump or look if you can regulate the one you have. ✌️
Bless you all from Sweden. 👍

[nickcaines]

I really enjoy your videos Andy, one of these days soon me and my sweet eel get a little place like yours

[benjobling]

Love the videos never use to see the people I followed over on Facebook pleased you started uploading over here

[timgrant]

The average person doesn't realize what you were splitting was the hardest stuff to split with all those knots! I like the ugly splitter! 😎

[rhondasweeney]

Awesome video! Love it when you have your son with you. Thank you for sharing 👌
