prondzy 3,882 #5 Posted June 26, 2017 We will see on a video, internals are free, but lets be honest it scares the $h!t out of me being it was recalled from the market with so many injuries and even death? If i read right. I like the piece but not sure if i want to find out first person about the injuries. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JERSEYHAWG / Glenn 4,498 #6 Posted June 26, 2017 Craziest looking thing I ever saw. Looks dangerous to, but I am a chicken with that contraption. Glenn 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Racinbob 11,277 #7 Posted June 26, 2017 I was caught in a horizontal rotating gizmo back in the 80's. It wasn't a log splitter but a 4" section of rigid pipe that I was wrapping a rope around to assist in driving a shallow well. It happens in a split second and scared the snot out of me. To me, that splitter looks even more dangerous especially handling the splitting wood. I remember when those came out as a second party attachment for a Wheel Horse. Most definitely a cool attachment but I would hesitate using it, At the bare minimum, if you do use it, have one person who's ONLY job is to be prepared to stop it. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Achto 27,875 #8 Posted June 26, 2017 Here's a video of a Stickler spiral splitter that mounts to a car/truck hub. Same concept as the Bark buster. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
obone 142 #9 Posted June 26, 2017 Seen one at the show that hooks up to the rear wheel. It's a lot like the first photo. I would never ever use on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dakota8338 115 #10 Posted June 30, 2017 Dad purchased one that worked off the rear PTO on larger tractors. He loved it, but I always view it with skepticism. It hasn't been used since dad died, and probably never will be. I guess, I should dig it out and sell that junk, er valuable piece of equipment I meant, if anyone wants to purchase an accident waiting to happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
