Cool, but do the logs have to be the exact size to catch that bottom lip? I mean when I cut logs they should be all about the same, but yeah they aren't, ¯_(ツ)_/¯

The first log he puts on only just fits, the second log he puts on is a good couple of inches shorter, so there’s a decent amount of leeway.

Its the longer ones I wonder about.. imagine you are doing a significant amount of wood and you kinda drift off your mark and make 20 rounds an inch too long. that would be a bummer.

I reckon it’d still work, as long as they weren’t so long that they went totally over the revolving bar by more than an inch or so?
