We used to play with a similar splitter when we were kids over at the 
neighbour's place. An axe head welded to a big cast wheel mounted on 
your basic circular saw used for cutting wood on all the old farms in 
those days. I never did see this one work but can imagine it would 
really split blocks of firewood. I know it was fun to play with. Pretty 
dangerous too now that I think about it. But we survived with no missing 
digits.
