Black wattle vs 40t log splitter.

This can't be true or accurate. There is no mention of the thing that unifies most drivers...a hate of bike riders.

Ah, but it sounds like they were asked what irked them about other drivers. If they were asked about what irked them most of all road users, I’m sure you would find that we would find ourselves, up at our rightful place, at to top of the hate leaderboard!

Well it's been shit so far. Bed about 3am after a massive night of work. Woman problems from 7am. Rainy morning. Just slowly cruising home from coffee and hit a wet patch on the path...huge crash! Slide about 3m into a garden bed, roll through that tangled up with the bike, smack my head pretty hard on the way down, grt up...wet, mud head to toe, crowd of pedestrians all giving me the "that's why bikes are for kids..." look. Ride the last 150m home. Helmet is cooked, pants are torn, backpack is torn, neck is sore. Fucking great...supposed to be going to the skate park with some friends before I head in for another big show at work. Monday is looking good.

This is becoming a hobby of yours. You need someone to teach you how to ride through the wet and/or some tyres that work.

I think some just riding along lessons are in order.

Does that run straight off the tractor hydraulics? Or do you run an external hydraulic tank?
Self contained unit. The hydraulic tank is the axle box. Suction to an Eaton pump powered by a Honda motor. Made by a company in Toooooooowoooooooomba. Well made and very solid. I looked into a pto version but then you need the tractor to run them.

Is there a better way to move your splitter around?
I just split by hand, but have considered bodging up a splitter to incorporate into my dodge plow unit. Unsure how much oomph I can extract with a bit over 35lpm spare hydraulic capacity. Should be plenty.
The splitter weighs about 275kg. 5" cylinder and 3,500psi run by a little Honda. Very basic but the splitting frame is UC and it can be stood up as per video or horizontal. It is on trailer wheels with a jockey wheel but I leave it hooked to the tractor when splitting heavy stuffs.

has some good things to say
You'd perhaps be better off using the PTO to run a remote hydraulic pump. Our chipper uses the same approach.

That's what I was hoping to avoid. I haven't done any calculations yet, but would like to just put a splitting head on the dodge ram or inboard/outboard ram.
Doesn't chew many kW. My Honda is 6.5hp? I do need to make another muffler guard because the pissy little factory thing still gets to 9,000 C and it is such a convenient place to rest your hand. Only get burnt once each season...

My day looked great until I foolishly agreed to go indoor climbing/bouldering with my youngest. It's probably been 25 years since I did any climbing and with how much my forearms are already hurting I'm not sure I'll be able to wipe my arse from tomorrow morning...

^^ A cuddly one!
Very squeezy. Nephew picked it up to relocate it and it wrapped his arm and started compressing. He could feel the bones cracking and decided the floor of the shed was good.
