SPACE SAVER LOG PUSHER ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A method and apparatus for heating metal logs of a predetermined length in which the logs are cut into billets for an extrusion press. A furnace has an elongated heating chamber with an entrance opening and an exit opening. A pusher table is mounted adjacent the entrance opening of the furnace and a conveyor extends along the pusher table, through the entrance opening of the furnace, through the furnace heating chamber and through the exit opening thereof. A log dispenser is mounted adjacent the pusher table for dispensing logs seriatim onto the conveyor at the pusher table. An insert log has a length substantially less than the given length of the logs in the log train and is selec- tively positioned in the log train between the pusher and the lagging log in the log train to increase the effective length of the log train prior to adding a new log to the log train. As the log train is shortened sufficiently to add a regular log to the log train, the insert log is removed to allow positioning of the new log to the log train. The insert log provides a way for increasing the effective length of the log train to avoid double clutching without lengthening the pusher table.
