    Took down 2 small to medium size cherries then visited another spot to top off with sugar maple logs.

    There was actually quite a bit of room between the logs and the window, picture is deceiving. Fortunately the window is still in place. About a 2 mile ride home.

    Nice haul of Goldilocks wood there. :thumbs: Unusual to see you not buck it to length.

    Didn't bring the wheelbarrow with me and the maple was up through the wood about 30 or 40 yards. Drug/carried the logs down and rolled them down the bank into the ditch by the road. Back country road but still had a passerby.

    I've broken 3 so far. One was even with the headache rack installed. :headbang: Split went between the top of the bed and bottom of the rack. Unistrut now fills the gap. :thumbs:

    Cutting smart. Loading the short lengths saves some time.
