My home built log splitter has a working height of 35" but it has a "log lift" and a tray after the splitting wedge.
The log lift will handle the largest junks I split (about 30+") but will also act as a "tray" when lifted with 5 or 6 smaller
junks on it while I split them one at a time.
The "tray" after the wedge prevents the split halves from falling to the ground, if more splits are required I shift one half to the lift "tray"
and then move the other half for it's subsequent split and so on.
All the above is done at comfortable waist height.
I do have to bend to roll (large) logs on or stack multiple smaller ones on but the bending down is kept to a minimum.
Oh, pics can be found on post #53 of this thread. I coulda avoided all the above typing!
