    I don't have pics. An old friend of mine who was 6'5 tall found that store bought splitters were way to low for him. His solution was to mount the splitter on a smaller type boat trailer. After the fabrication work was complete, he decked the rest of it in with plywood se he had a place to stack and sort. The end result was a much more user friendly splitter setup. And with 15 inch tires it wasn't to bad to re-position with man power if needed.

    I cobbled this together. Works decent enough IMG_1667.jpeg and I alway keep a dolly nearby anyway.
