as some of you know my first attempt at a loading bar wasn’t up to snuff for a user with the attention span of a teenager without a cellphone. Replaced the crossbar with a 3x3” square tube 1/4” thick. If I bend this one it’s time to dress myself in bubble wrap. Small load of white oak today. Yep I was in a snobby mood today. Red oak I can burn anytime. White is rare for me so,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Very nice rig there! Good job! Looks like that is going to serve you well and speed up loading for you and save your back some stress... a win win!
That didn’t work as planned. Tried to quote all of Mwalshes reply. White oak smells better than perfume. Vomit I can live without.
jo191145 could you take a video or a few pictures of you using it? i have a 5x10 dump that might need something like this....
My sniffer may not be up to snuff. Red does give off an odor, mostly when it’s just beginning to dry. Every once in a while you’ll find what I call a pizz oak. Not sure what creates that but a litter box is a better place to be.
I took a couple vids today. Was going to post them but don’t know how. Not great vids anyway. A button on each finger is not a good way to load logs. That’s how I bent the bar LOL. There’s still some operator fudging required. A hip to the left, a yank to the right to get them sliding in the right direction. Once most of the weight is hanging you can manipulate them pretty easy IF IF you do it when your supposed to. The three separate hang points are crucial also. Most times I’ll switch points with every log just to pull it where I want it to go on the trailer. That and my iPhone doesn’t have a pause feature???? Even dinosaurs had pause on their phones. I’m sure of it.
