[Shop-talk] Log Splitters

[eric at megageek.com]

Evening gentlemen (and women),

Today I revived my log splitter.  I've been doing most of my splitting by 
hand so I haven't been using it.  Now my shoulder injury is making 
swinging an ax less possible.

So I got my old 20ton splitter out.  It works great (I can't believe I've 
been swinging an ax as long as I have been now that I remember how easy 
this makes it!)

Anyway, I did a quick welding job to add a small 'table' to the far side 
of the I beam.  That way when I split the log, half of it stays on the 
table and the other half I can resplit.

It works pretty good, but I was thinking there is a better way to do it. 
So, I came to the experts.

Does anyone have a great way to make an 'outfeed table' for a spliter? 
Anyone want to share their ideas here?

Either way, enjoy and thanks!
