HI, I bought an electric winch to hang from a nearby tree and help my grab the (18" long) cut logs and drop onto my horizontal splitter. What I'm trying to do is something like this photo that i found online (see attached)
And so I bought a 32" wide long tong (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08WN6F3DM?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1). Most of the rounds I have are 24" diameter, but some are larger. I tried testing the log tongs but the pieces that are 24" diameter and under just rotate out of the tongs while lifting. Do I need to buy 2 tongs? i.e. one larger and one smaller? I need some advice from experienced long tong users (LOL!) on how to do this the right way. Thanks.
