If it works, is it really crazy? If I didnt have one already, it would be nice to have around the house. Throw a wagon behind it to stack the wood in.Wut n duh Kangs Mountin?

Hold up. The video didn't even show up on my phone, I had no idea what you were talking about. Now that I see the video, its even better.2. The video shows it driving itself.
Never said it was crazy, just a bit redneck. I'd use the heck out of itIf it works, is it really crazy? If I didnt have one already, it would be nice to have around the house. Throw a wagon behind it to stack the wood in.
(But I do wonder how you steer it...)Probably that steering wheel looking device right Infront of the tractor seat...Never said it was crazy, just a bit redneck. I'd use the heck out of it(But I do wonder how you steer it...)
Now I want this just to add remote control via an Arduino and a cell phone.1. This will be in @jeepinmatt ’s driveway by Friday.

3. I expect a flamethrower mounted to the front and a new video by Saturday!
Nah..I'm too fat to be up frontI figured that it was a caster up front and you steer via rear brakes.
Well if we're doing all that, lets flip the splitter to the bottom and then you can just swing over the log and never even pick it up.Now I want this just to add remote control via an Arduino and a cell phone.
A guy I know built a wood splitter for his skid steer this way....never gets out of the cab to split wood, grabs the bucket & then drops the wood at his shop in a pile!Well if we're doing all that, lets flip the splitter to the bottom and then you can just swing over the log and never even pick it up.
I have a beam with a wedge on it for this exact purpose. Just needs a cylinder and some hoses. I just can't decide if I'd rather put it on the skid steer or the excavator. Skid steer is easier to change and mount, but the excavator will probably be more effective.A guy I know built a wood splitter for his skid steer this way....never gets out of the cab to split wood, grabs the bucket & then drops the wood at his shop in a pile!
What is your budget? And do you want a lay down or up right?I want a wood splitter but with the prices on FB I'd be better off to go get a new one and pay it off in 24 months for 0%.
I could ask the guy if he'd be willing to sell it if you want? Its located in Concord.I have a beam with a wedge on it for this exact purpose. Just needs a cylinder and some hoses.

I need another about as bad as the one I already have, but im a sucker for a good deal especially on something that saves me time and effort.I could ask the guy if he'd be willing to sell it if you want? Its located in Concord.
Not sure atm. Been watching marketplace. Be cool to find an older one that the Ford 8n could power it all the 3 point ones don’t have a hydraulic pump.What is your budget? And do you want a lay down or up right?
Built by Ralph Haner and a buddy back in the day, in Florida. If I remember right, the vin number was a combination of their birthdays. Ralph had a Little Red Express that someone posted on here a few years ago. He was a Navy man, welder and fabricator extraordinaire. Rest in peace, Ralph.That's pretty damn cool.
