I am going to start buying logs to cut into firewood. The logs I'm going to buy are going to be tree length. Most of the logs will be in the 8-12" range. I want to build a little hydraulic splitter with a 4-way to split these. e is my thinking. It would be a 3" cylinder with a 1.5 rod. The stroke would be 18" I would have a 13gpm pump on it. This should be around a 4.4 second cycle time. The logs won't be really knotty for the most part. I'm not looking for something to split big round or knotty wood. This will be production wood only. Will this cylinder do the job and hold up. I know it's not that big but the wood is small wood.
Thanks for the replies and the information.
