The snag with a large stove is running them in the shoulder months. Most stoves work best when worked hard. A big stove running half tilt will smoulder and soot up the glass. Any chance you could have a second stove? If no I can wholeheartedly recommend the larger Woodwarms.

Seems nuts. What I don't get is David Savage can make truly beautiful furniture (not necessarily to my taste) but this just looks so simplistic. The base is not far off a bit of kitchen top. Nothing wrong with the table really just crazy money for the work involved. You can imagine a discussion with the wife can you dust the table? no I am going to give it a quick flail first

Thanks Rowan. Already have a small pad on the steel base. Can go up another 13cm before I will reduce my log length below our largest logs. Will probably do this first but would still be below hip height. Anymore will have to be pads and ramps.

Don't know if it belongs under woodcraft or hedge laying:001_smile: Beautiful glass top occasional table | Bespoke Furniture | David Savage

Thanks Steven Appreciate the picture and it may be deceiving but that looks much like the height of mine at the moment. The truck bed is not up to your hips and the splitter bed looks a fair bit lower. I am upright when on the controls. It's the moving and chucking the logs I must be stooping for. Don't notice for an hour or so it's the longer shifts that the back starts to complain.

Thanks for all the suggestions Snag with this is it's a big splitter on a compact tractor. The PTO is low on the tractor and if I run with spitter high there is quite an angle on the shaft. I have done it but don't think it a suitable long term solution. I could back up onto some rings but would like a permanent fix. There is lots of height to play with on the ram so just need to raise the table but just not sure how much. At present the table is thigh high so sounds like needs to come up at least 6-8" to hip height. When looking at 1m vertical splitters they all seem to have low tables. Seems a shame as everything else on this machine is well thought out.

Finding that working at our Krpan tractor mounted splitter is leaving my back aching. Going to do some mods and wondered what hight others think is ideal.

Someone local just bought a TR110 and Welmac had fitted it with a conveyor. -

Good to meet you Garry. Glad the boards will now be put to use instead of filling up a shelf and in the way. Look forward to seeing pics of the chopping boards

Did some laying on the farm and got fed up with passing farmers taking the pee and saying "you don't want to do it like that" Did a course same as Jimmay with Lynher training. Now at least when someone takes the pee I can say "thats how they teach it now" Found the BTCV book a very useful guide.

Bleak today. Forecast was good but it's raining and cold 4C

Load handler and just roll the bags off the back? Might be messy

Do you know someone is selling at these prices or just reports? Been having a look at log websites around the country and there is some pretty dodgy measuring going on when it comes to volumes of logs
-
Much as TCD Still worryingly quiet. If someone is selling 2m3 dry hardwood for £100 we ain't get many customers charging twice that.
-
How are you getting on. Has it set yet?
-
Good work Mark Especially like the bookmatched boards for the top.
-
That's fine
-
I have lots of off cuts that are big enough for chopping boards. I keep them thinking I will get around to doing something with them but it never happens. You can have them for nothing but a donation for the Christmas raffle would be nice. Give me a call 01822 852933

That does not look like a native timber. It looks like it's got wild close grain. A bit like sapele but maybe not red enough in colour for that. There are a multitude of similar looking woods to choose from. If you can get a close up picture of the wood and I am sure Steve will get it for you.
