never have, but some that did are no longer with us... My memory is they were pulled from the market due to liability issues.

Yup. Guy missing an arm .... duct tape holding the wiring to the post .... Cheesy stopper under the screw ... you'd not have me workin' in there !
And the other vid, no thanks, I like my fingers where they are.

they are very fast and effective. Yes, if you screw up, you will get screwed up.
On the subject of crazy splitters, i think this one takes the 2nd place after the wheel of death splitter...

It sure is a lot faster than hydraulics or spiral splitters tho

Search "Spiral Wood Splitter" on youtube and check it out. There was a model on the market that attached to the hub of a truck.
My grandfather had one of these and it worked ok though a bit scary.This was before you saw gas powered hydraulic splitters.I've seen them for a three-point hitch and PTO on a tractor. Always seemed dangerous to me -- lots of ways to get wrapped up in the screw and get hurt.
Spiral splitters, buzz saws, gasoline blowtorches. Just a few of the things we all used (use) that give people shrunken sphincter syndrome. I wish I had $5.00 for every person that told me they knew a half dozen people that had been crushed, decapitated, eviscerated and beheaded by buzzsaws alone. I could pay off my mortgage. I was on another site a while back and guy stated very convincingly that you could easily cut your chest open with a radial arm saw and that's why they weren't made anymore! Naturally I had to link to all those extremely obscure and hard to locate sources for radial arm saws- like Sears and Lowes and Home Depot.
Kinda makes ya wonder how we've survived without a big, cushy bubble to live in all this time, eh?
Wonder what I did with my lawn darts......
