hi chris is it a screw type splitter your making on a bench if so it will need a reduction box as it will run to quick an you will get nowere fast they are not for the faint hearted as i no by trial an error i made one with a 5hp honda engine far to quick it would break your arm before you can say [–it] but a reduction box engine works fine they split for fun but if logs are still green it will just keep boreing an wont spilt also a jockey wheel on the belts for tension so they can be released quickley an a very important cut off switch very close to hand once made they are far better than a hydraulic one me thinks
