I guess familiarity with the way that works would help, but I just cannot see myself using such a contraption!! Just the thought of an axe head spinning around in my direction gives me the shivers...not to mention how close his hands are to the action!!
When I first started this hobby (burning wood) I did it all by hand. Yep, a small and light splitting axe (6 pounds, I think) and using my best aikido bokken swing on it could get me through tons of wood in no time. Until I met the one that would not spilt. Then a friend lent me his log-splitter, and the rest is history...never went back to the axe.
I guess...WVO could be something like this eh.
