I went to an auction today and bought a 3 point log splitter. Most of ya'll know the kind, mounts as a three point with the beam sticking straight out to the rear of the tractor. Couples into a two way remote on the tractor, you tie the hydraulic lever down on the tractor and run the splitter off it's own control.
This one has a standard 4"X24" cylinder. Does anyone know if a D19 Allis hydraulic system will handle it?
Another option would be to mount an oil tank and run a pump off the PTO.
Other notes on the auction. Two JD H's, a 1935 and a 1936, went for $1500 and $1700. A nice JD A with 3 point only brought $950. A 1948 Oliver 80 Standard brought $1200. All tractors ran. A clean, straight, rust free 1948 Kaiser car only brought $300. I almost jumped on it myself, but right now I'd have to leave it set outside, nowhere to put it inside.
BTW, a neighbor had been interested in the splitter also, but said he didn't want to bid against me. I told him, "I thought that's what auctions were for". I'd have had no problem with us bidding against each other. If he wanted the splitter more than I, so be it. He left before the splitter sold.

It’s amazing how a little floor jack can lift tons and tons of weight with just the flick of a handle. What’s even more amazing is that all the principals of hydraulic theory can be wrapped up in such a small package. This same package applies to any hydraulic system from the largest bulldozer to the oldest and smallest tractor. This short series will take a look at the basic layout of a simple hydraul
