Trip,,,, that is almost exactly it. Thanks for the pic. I am going to use a ready made and convert it I think. A little more farmer, just tired of fussy fabrication. I was going to hook it to this horse and have held it up for guestimation and need to get back to it. I might use a forklift mast for the lift table. I also thought of a roller conveyer to set several up at the same time, can deliver them off the loader even.

Mr. Sberry, you really don't want to lift logs if you can help it. When you are young and indestructible, maucho man thing, have at it. Over time your body tells you there is a better way.....listen to your body. Grin!

I quit lifting logs and splits long ago, I let my tractor do the lifting, I cut them over a trailer or wagon,

then that becomes my table when I pull it to where I split my wood...

It's just so much easier to roll the rounds right onto the splitters beam, that's the perfect height, and better yet, NO bending over or heavy lifting!

yeah, call the guy with the large processor to dump off a few cord pre-split...

I do split a little, but only what i want taken down or what blows down. tree length is $125 here now and you can get cut split and delivered for a little over $200. when tree length was $75 a few years ago it seemed a better deal. now so many people with processors buying up volumes of tree length the price went up but with processors, the price for green split hasn't gone up much at all. i actually bought a new axe to do some of the splitting this year as a backup, but some of it is just to knotty or twisted for the axe.
