I would like to know as well. I tried to get a price at tractoe supply but cant get any info.
Someone has a thread for building a table for the speeco splitter. It was about a year ago. It works great and costs about $15. If you have a welder it's easy to make.
There is a man in central Ohio who makes cradles that he sells on Ebay. I think for around $60. They are held on by their own weight. I am sure someone can provide the link as it was posted on here about a year ago.
When you get it set up bring it over to my house so I can borrow it.

This is the one I think they are talking about.
Edit: Helps if I put in the link

I typed in the search (Speeco table). It came up as "another Huskee/Speeco 22 ton table idea".
The one sold for the 22 ton Speeco/Huskee retails for 135.00. It is a very solid build,but I bet you could make one a lot cheaper. It is a one piece unit withoutthe need of a bracket.
I know that TSC sells our log catcher now. Here is their part# 2156001
I am fairly certain that the retail price at the store is around $48.99 I have not seen the price as high as you have stated.
Thanks

That part number returns nothing at TSC's site.
Searching for "log catcher" on their site also returns nothing, and "splitter accessories" show oil, log jack, etc. -- but no such log catcher.
Thanks,

It is a new item for them to stock and doesn't appear on their website yet. The store can order it from their warehouse though.
Maybe that includes the price of the cover I bought also. I'm sorry for the misinformation and stand corrected. I'll double check my invoice.
No worries. I just wanted to make sure the price quote was correct.
Thanks

I bought the one from 33flame 8-10 months ago. Doesn't look real sturdy but it actually is. Haven't seen the Speeco one yet though. Any table is a must. Saves a ton of bending over on your back. Split a big round, leave 1/2 of it on the table till the other half is split.
The Speeco one is very strong. You will tip over your splitter from log weight on the business end of the splitter before you break the log catcher because of how well it is made.
I guess I'm going to make my own log table , it would be nice to mount it the same way the factory does , are they using the two holes in the I beam and what kind of stock are they using , 1/2 '' round stock doesn't sound heavy enough unless its supported somewhere else , or maybe the holes are bigger than 1/2 '' I didn't measure them . Pics of the mount would be great if possible . Thanks
