Just to give more background on what I'm doing. I have a 24" long splitter already, 5 hp briggs, 11 GPM Northern pump that I built 15 years ago and I added a log loader to it last winter to pick up the big stuff that I can't lift anymore. Anything that is gnarly, knotty or short will see that splitter. I am building this so any of the straight or clean logs I have I can cut to 48", split them to dry, then use the cordwood saw to make them stove size (16") in the fall. I generally saw around 6-8 cords per year total, some of that is smaller and doesn't need to be split at all, some of it is gnarly butts and I'll use the smaller splitter, so this one will see 2-4 cords per year, so speed and fuel consumption won't be a huge factor, unless it is so painfully slow that I can't make myself do it. Based on the flow rates posted, It will not be fast, but I think it will be doable.
