Making Hydraulic Log Splitter
I used three hydraulic cylinders to build the hydraulic log splitter. Two smaller cylinders drive the knife and the wood feeder, the largest hydraulic cylinder splits wood. Everything is connected to two hydraulic distributors, a single-section distributor designed for log splitter, and a universal two-section distributor. For two smaller hydraulic cylinders I had to install valves to slow them down because they were moving out too fast. The valves make the pump heavily loaded but the cylinders work slower. I connected the whole machine to the hydraulic power pack I made in the previous video. Thanks to the feeder and adjustable blade the work is very fast and not tiring, the splitter has a lot of power and can handle the hardest wood without any problem Start supporting this channel and you will get these bonuses:    / @workshopfromscratch   Tools: Drill https://amzn.to/43dE6hO Angle Grinder https://amzn.to/4a70xry Other tools https://amzn.to/3IAQE9N Camera: Drone - https://amzn.to/4a5TvTP Camera - LUMIX GH5M2 https://amzn.to/3UR6Niw LUMIX G VARIO LENS https://amzn.to/49IfVdq Camera - LUMIX G85 4K https://amzn.to/4a4deTY GoPro Hero10 https://amzn.to/3uThjvm Hydraulic power pack :    • Making Gas Powered Hydraulic Power Pack
