It was one of the main reasons I went for the Krpan. Other splitter winches are very expensive but the Krpan one is relatively cheap as it's low tech with just a clutch and rope to actuate it. None of this remote control hydraulic winch type affair that Posch offer. Mind you they look the bees knees.

Looks like it needs tweaking tbh.

 

Yes it's not a perfect set up but I have put a much larger than normal table on it. It would't need swinging out to get it over the normal table but wouldn't have space for rings of that size on the original table either.

 

Might look into logged on's idea.

Yup, maybe if the outer half of table ( not much pressure on it when splitting) could swing out of the way when lifting ring, then swing back in when dropping ring on table?

Be easier than swinging ring about.

Hmm that might work. Think the winch is really designed for pulling in and uprighting billets but I have given up messing around with billets so could set this up just for rings. If I moved the winch so it was centred over to the left and did as you suggest and had a drop down flap it might do the trick. In reality that big ring was more to demonstrate what it can lift and pull. With slightly smaller rings it is a doddle getting rings onto the table as is. Food for thought though :thumbup1:
