 Woodmojoe, It's snowing right on down here too. early spring will have to wait !


 BoilerHouse: I'll post more pics as I go along. Thanks. Here's one I just finished for a customer.

 Crow : Those are some old wheels I had on an old truck. Figured if it's going to be setting around might as well look good .

That is some nice looking fabrication, bet it works well too.  Do you have the gear to make your own hyd hoses?

 I bought all the hoses from surplus center made to the size I needed. Best price I found anywhere. I really like the way it works.

          Thanks, Larry

That table is the best.. Saves you from picking it up off the ground.. :thumbup:

 Yes I really like it, what I do is park the splitter with the table over my conveyor & bring the logs to the splitter. from the conveyor pile I stack it on pallets, then when I need wood I get my skidsteer and haul the pallets in the shop. saves me alot of handling.

Pete -

What size Beam did you use?  Is it an I-beam or an H-beam.  Please advise.  Thank you!
