The one at 2:20 would scare me the most. A nub on a branch your feeding grabs your glove and you may end up with a nub.

I thought those were pretty clever but yeah, you would not want to use them with a bad hangover.

My thoughts, exactly!
Some of those were pretty creative and seemed to work pretty well. Some of them made me wonder what the guy was going to do with all those little, tiny pieces of wood.

It surprises me that there is that much money in firewood in this country to make these automated feeder/cutter/splitter rigs - I guess at $8 a bundle at the local gas station there is. That first machine was impressive.
What's the deal with all of the ones that make small wood chunks? How are those used?

There were one or two that looked like you could operate all day and still go home with two hands. All the rest, I'll pass. Rod

The first machine was made for the intended purpose; the rest fall in a range of "I'd do that" to "nope nope nope".

No thanks. I've still got two hands and I want to keep it that way.
