Was idly thinking about a long lever log splitter today. Looked if anyone made something like that but only found small ones for wimpy logs or kindling.
Wimpy logs I can split by axe. I need something for the ones that are refusing to split by axe and I don't really want a motorized one.
Found this, which looks pretty promising and I should have much of the scrap laying around. Doesn't even need wheels since I have made the pallet forks and won't be moving it around a lot.
