Split: Log Splitter Calc

What size log splitter do you need? Honest tonnage — including the truth that no tonnage standard exists.

What it does

Split answers the log-splitter questions honestly. The Tonnage Guide, Species table, and Split Safe are free forever: your biggest rounds, the wood class, green or seasoned — and you get the tonnage band, always with the disclosure the industry skips: there is no published test standard behind splitter tonnage, and seller charts disagree by 2× for the same log.

The Species table is USDA Forest Products Laboratory data — specific gravity for 17 common firewoods with the elm warning (elm, sweetgum, and sycamore grow interlocked grain that beats splitters twice their chart rating). Split Safe carries the rules that keep hands attached, anchored to US CPSC emergency-room surveillance: one operator, hands on sides never ends, cardboard-not-hands for hydraulic leaks.

Split Pro — one-time unlock

$6.99, once. Splitter Match: the pile's worst log — biggest, hardest, green — becomes the class to buy or rent. Session Planner: plate cycle time and pile size become honest hours, derated to real pace. Rent vs Buy: price, rental rate, and your splitting days per year → the break-even, in days and years.
