All it takes is one horsepower to split wood. Check this video out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IcirMxYtAO8

In the lumberman's museum up here there is a horse treadmill that the old timers would hook up to a sawmill with a big long belt. ;)

Athens makes the treadmill.  We saw it running an entire woodworking shop at one of the Animal Power Field Days.

 I link about up 40-50 squirrels using six pack holders as yokes. Then I throw sunflower seeds all over the ground in front of them. I split 17 cords last year this way.

I do not know what they call it.
Horse powered sweep?
I have been interested in this type of drive system.
