Another homemade splitter

I posted pics before, but searching, couldn't find them, so wanted to try again.

Looks good, hows it work? At first I thought you had a seat on it, then I figured it was the gas tank

It's the back half of a rear engine snapper, so I just put it all on. It works good so far. Love the elect start.

Is that an air tank you're using for oil?

Not quite sure what original use was. Someone told me it looked air tank from big truck with air brakes. I calculated between 9 and 10 gallons.

I've fooled with trucks most my life so the tank caught my eye. For sure it will be strong enough.

I started out using a air tank for my splitter, then took it off, I was scared of a dirty tank ruining my pump, and it would be quite expensive to put a filter before the pump.

But if you get a clean tank it is perfect for a splitter.
