At 61 I have realized that I am not 25 anymore. I have split a lot of wood in my life. Every single stick by hand. Much with a 12 pound monster mall less with an 8 pound maul. Now my shoulders are crying uncle.
I am seeking opinions on wood splitters. I am leaning towards a 3 point unit to run off my Ford 3000 diesel. The tractor is here and paid for and I would have one less small engine to store. The pump on the 3000 puts out around 5 gallons per minute so that may be an issue. I am also looking at pto mounted screw type splitters but they are hard to find.
I would not totally shut the door on a self powered unit but it is not my first choice.
Any comments or experiences would be appreciated.
