My apologies I was severely drunk when I did the math, no hard feelings.

@plasmaman2507

Formula 3.14xradiusxradius=cubic/inch.
3.14×2.46inchx2.46inch=19cubic/inches.

A x Psi = Pound.
19cubic/inchx3480psi=66120pounds.
Converter.
66120poundsx0.453=29952kg=29.952ton.

by my calculations assuming 125 mm bore (4.92 inches) x pi 3.141414 and so on equals 15.4488 cubic inches times assuming 3000 p.s.i. pressure equals 46346 pounds divided by 2000 (1 ton) equals 23.1732 tons of pressure not 30 but maybe you have a pump capable of more p.s.i. than 3000 but I doubt it.

his butt sure is close to that muffler!

1 cilinder air cooled diesel engine 11hp.(hatz)

It is built of a refuse side loader arm.The cilinder inside the tube is replaced for a bigger one with a diameter of 125mm.

@maxfior cherio

is that made from an old drilling rig?

why make the log opening so small?

previous comment is right… definately built like a brick shit house….. makes me wonder if the guy running it was a fabricator?

what kind of engine is that?

Whenever I see these things I think of Tony Soprano and his companions making use of it for other purposes.

I guess that is where I live then; my stove can take up to 35 inch pieces, which, depending on your situation can save time splitting and stacking…

Because unless you live in Buckingham Palace, you wouldn’t have a firebox that needs anything bigger than 24 inch logs.

wow good idea

this thing is built like a brick shit house and it can only chop what looks to be 24 or so inch pieces… I don’t get it…
