Dave,

You can get plans for a 3 point log splitter from CadPlans.

I built one of those and I'm going to tear it half apart and start over. I used a pto pump and built a three point hitch, hooked it up to the tractor, it worked fine. but, there are what I call a major draw backs. first, when your nieghbors want to borrow it you have to give them your tractor as well. A unit on it's own set of highway wheels with a trailer hitch can go anywhere. Second, it only takes a five horse engine and one of those nifty two stage pumps to run a splitter. The tracor pto pump is otimized to run near top engine speed, sure, at idle, the tractor provides enough power to run the splitter, but the oil flow is so low the cylinder just creeps along. Wide open throttle speeds things up but you're burning a lot of fuel and wearing out an expensive engine to do the work of a single cylinder air cooled.

Your pump volume is too low. If you were to get a higher volume pump the tractor engine could be run much slower and the cylinder speed would be fine..
