Its not a good working height at all, well for me anyways, not sure about everyone else, but if that's what I had, then maybe I'd get the logs to it, cut, have the splitter elevated to a comfortable working height, use something to lift the blocks up to it. Split wood then goes to an adjacent pile, stack or in my case wheelbarrows, garden carts, that get staged where its stacked. Only reason is it just about eliminates bending over and I can literally work all day without discomfort.

I've rolled and maneuvered some 3'+ blocks to mine in the vertical position, on the ground, just to halve them, then tilt it back horizontal again to complete the work.

That would be my main concern anyway, working off the ground can be tough on ones back.
