How big is your log??

[Dave Martin]

I am processing a large quantity (to me) of wood at the moment with a view to starting a firewood business next season, some of which is having to be cut to log size now. It seems 8" is the norm (probably why girls always say `ah bless` to me on our first real date:001_smile:). Am I right in this and whats the maximum depth and width I should aim at. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

9" to 12" for me..

 

9" is the span from the end of your little finger to the end of your thumb strtched out, so good as a guage when your cutting into sizes

I find between 9" and 10" is a good average that suits around 95% of customers.

 

Anything less than 8" are GRANNY LOGS and arent worth bothering with:001_rolleyes:

Just tried that but my logs seem to be getting shorter each time and I cant play the guitar anymore:001_smile:

It's not just your feet girls look at david, the span of your hands also equates to something big boy, need to catch me up a little though
