Puttin the log arm/ballast to work......

[David N]

Last of the pine logs to be drug outa the brush.......I hate movin' white pine when it's warm......everything has sap on it. Milling them up sucks too. Rather it be 10° out.................. But ya gotta do what ya gotta do.

I designed and built an automatic arch to keep my logs clean. Sure makes the sawmill blades stay sharp longer. The BX fits anywhere and can move big logs.

That is super cool man.

What did you use for the wheel spindles?

Beautiful arch. Nice work. But green? Is that allowed on this forum. <grin>

I just used trailer stub axles.

I didn't do a good video building it but put together a slide show when I started making YouTube videos.

I started with green, then switched to orange when green got unaffordable. Now looks like switching to red because orange is doing the same thing. One thing about green is the paint they sell is awesome and doesn't fade.

Very nice build, well thought out, and having a shop like yours is a plus

Thanks. A fun place to hang out in my old age. Here's a BX grill guard with hitch and chain points that was another fun project.

Not really worried about the dirt. My mill has a de-barker. And most of the time I skid the entire tree outa the woods......the top is in the dirt and the trunk stays clean.

That build is outstanding! I was about half a minute in and joked to myself, "He's basically building the snatch block, I bet he turned the sheaves himself."

And then he did.

Really impressive design and fab work, sidekick.

Thanks. It was a fun project so I can move larger logs with my little tractors without much work. Fun having time to play in the shop.
