Split log Size?

[Nick Watkins]

Just out of interest, do you guys ring to a certain size so that your logs are all say 20cm in length or just ring up by eye and not worry about differing sizes?

 

I guess I am asking is there an average size log to cover most customers needs?

9 inch

Never measure anything, yes logs do come out at differant sizes but aim for 7-9"

Agree with the above - 9" seems to fit most fireplaces, though you'll always get asked for something different

[mattpete]

7 to 10 inch

14inch for my logsplitter and stoves

I never measure, cut by eye. some customers do ask for them either longer or shorter after the first load they have. 7-10 inches is the norm.

Our Palax is set at 9" seems to suit most fires

I aim 'domestic' logs at 9" & 'pub' logs at 12" - 14". More & more customers are switching to the bigger size which suits me as there is less handling. All the awkward bits that wont split down go in with the bigger logs too.

I had one chap try to buy wanting every log exactly 15" long & 5" across!!
