Thanx Chuck for your reply. I bought some 7/8" dowel and painted it with some red oxide primer, then cut logs to about 6" lengths. Tested with the 751 and....it works great! Thanx once again (gotta pack up for the show tomorrow) Al ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chuck Smith" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Kielek Family" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: "S-trains" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, June 05, 2003 5:20 AM Subject: Re: [S-Trains] 751 log loader

Just a quick question regarding the size of logs to use with the 751 . Not sure if it's 13/16" dowel size or if 3/4" will work. Train show this weekend and I'm going to use this loader at the show. I have to buy dowel and get it cut and stained.
