I am looking for a black powder log splitter.

If you are unfamiliar with the device, it is a small wedge/cannon type thing one uses to split logs and stumps. It is filled with some powder put in place then fired with a fuse so one can get out of the blast area. Bang, split log/stump.

Haven't had luck finding one, so I was hoping one of you fellas had one you could part with.

I had one all written out then looked for a pic and somehow deleted it. Try again. This splitter is one made by me about 40 years ago. It was made from a cut-off length of a .50 ml barrel. I used it extensively when we used wood for heat. It works well. If you buy you will have to locate cannon fuse to use it. I have some but cannot legally send to you. Price to U.S. only $30.00 including shipping.
