That's an old 3pt log splitter a neighbor built he gave it to me so i could swipe the cylinder and valve off of it.

My neighbors don't have anything cool like that.

Serious overkill!


Overkill is good!

Three hours of tree work? Holy cow!

Did the owner think it was beyond repair or did they simply want it gone?

I need one of those!

16,000 lbs. How did you get it home?

There's a guy on ebay in PA about 2 hours from me that auctions all kind of crazy machines that go for decent prices most times. Luckily I don't have enough room to keep something like that........ right now.

In fact, here's one I had bookmarked just in case something makes me go crazy and decide I really really need one! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7589072132&rd=1&sspagename=STRK:MEWA:IT&rd=1
