It's always important that when you don't know what you're doing to just unbolt parts and scatter them all over your backyard. And if it doesn't come apart, get a hammer and beat on it. If the small hammer doesn't work, get a bigger one!
Never seize on the shaft but use blue locktite on the set screw. A little heat will remove it but you don’t want it to loosen while running. 🙂 as mentioned, a hydraulic motor on the conveyor would be a nice addition.
Good upgrade on your wood splitter maybe the thing you do is built a cover to help keep the rain and snow off splitter and try keep it dry and you too when you splitter wood
Good job, but if I could give you one piece of advice it would be to wear hearing protection. I worked on a factory floor for eight years not wearing it much and I was young and dumb, and now I'm old and hard of hearing.
maybe should have added a pump mount to the motor and run a new hydraulic line on one side and been fixed in an hour, the motor is already tapped for the mount.
I had a diesel engine on a miller welder (threw a rod)I had to cut and smash the engine to separate engine from welder need a better design of a quick cupler engine driven equipment
I think you did a h*** of a job It looks like something I would do I got the hillbilly Technology So you just have a good day and keep on doing what you're doing Catch you on the next one
Just a work in progress......... you can outrun the conveyor now so there is that. A bit loud on your ears tho, might just lengthen the exhaust to some way of muffling the sound down some as I am old now and near reading lips. I do kind of wish I had taken a bit more concern over hearing. Not ragging on ya as if your happy then its all good
Much more suitable engine for your log splitter. I see a log lifter in the future. Your back will thank you in thirty years. Ask me how I ruined my spine and can't even get out of bed. Ever!!!
