What length do you split you billets,just started splitting them and doing them 38" long for 4, 9 1/2" long logs ,o.k we will of course have some shorter lengths. Just wondering what length the rest of you do them .Excuse the extremely basic question.

1 metre in soft wood or 1.25 in nice hardwood or if bent and horrible then 1 metre to mix in with the softwood for the boiler.

1m then seasoned. Sold as billets or sawn up for logs as required

36" then they can be sawn to 6", 9", 12" or18" (or 2 x 15" and a 6")

950mm-1m, 4 logs a billet. Max my splitter will take is 1m so I try to be a shade below that.

1.1m here as have two machines and that size fits both, gives 5 x 220mm (~9") logs or 4 x 275mm (~11") logs which fits our circular saw and customers seem to like these sizes.

[logbuster]

All our 3m lenths of timber over 14''diameter are cracked into 4 billets of 3m lengths and then put through the processor and cut to length of log required when they have seasoned.
