You might have the 'ugliest' log arch/farm implement made, but I believe my wood splitter takes the wood splitter trophy! Need to get my daughter to take a pic and put it on here. Started out with a 6"square tube, 24"stroke Pettibone loader cylinder and the splitting blade backed up with a CAT dozer spring leaf for strength, ran off tractor remote, then ran a Commercial Shearing 50GPM pump off my 9N PTO. Adeed a 12 HP Tecumseh engine later with a 14 tooth x 60 tooth motorcycle sprockets driving the pump.Fast forward a year or so, added a Charlynn hydraulic motor and another set of sprockets/drum with 150' of 1/4" cable and pulleys over s piece of pipe. I could tie the front axle of the 9N to a tree, pull trees to the splitter and put the big blocks in the splitter! Forgot to add, when my cousin first built it (late 70's), he made a 4 way splitter adaptor 18" high that could be slid over the main blade. He tired of the wood business, let me have it and I used it for the better part of 20 years. Moved into Mama and Daddy's house into 2000, has oil fired heat/heat pump, haven't used it much at all since. I'll post a pic one day and you'll agree it ain't pretty, but functional.
