SolarAndWood said:Don't need a winch when there are tire tracks right next to it. After the big one I got this week, I am kind of surprised the middle of that one isn't hollow.

I would back right up to it and winch it on the trailer....If it wasnt over 4000lbs

Gotcha. Saves some time at the end of the job when you want to clean up and get paid?
SolarAndWood said:This got me thinking. I bet I could winch that right into the back of my bigger dump trailer with the ramp on it. Not sure it buys me anything unless I get into the milling game though.
SolarAndWood said:yeah i'm spoiled. Everything I get is already bucked to 18 and noodled if necessary to load it by the time I get there. The rounds get dumped next to the splitter on the other end. The winching thing would mean setting aside the logs that there might be lumber in. Probably more complicated than its worth.
Is there any point in milling 4 ft logs? I'm thinking I could make Adirondack chairs out of stuff that long and I could still use my little trailer.
SolarAndWood said:And something like your setup would work for that? i.e. don't have to spend 10K to mill 4 ft logs?
SolarAndWood said:Cool, so the 95 should have no problem. Is the 5 ft bar appropriate or too big?
