MHfred Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 Did you get 12 cords cut and split? I enjoy cutting wood and being out in the woods. I cut this load in Dec 2011 and decided I needed a smalller trailer. LOL I was one tired old man. Some came from about a 24 inch diameter oak and the other came from about an 18 inch one. They were on the side of a drive way and it was hell getting them down the bank and stopping them from rolling onto the adjacent state highway. One tree had been down about 8 years and the other about 2 and they were very hard splitting. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/34005-wood-for-next-season/#findComment-222989 Share on other sites More sharing options...

j hancock Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 I would have TOO much fun with a skidder. A small logging arch on my 33 hp Massey keeps me in check.
