    Nice looking rounds. They are huge! :)

    I think I would ask that football player over again when it's time to unload and split. :whistle:

    Just take it a little easier on that trailer from now on! You will appreciate that and so will the machinery. Good on you for getting 3 years ahead.

    Nice score of maple.
    Nice loads too.

    7000 lb trailer earned it's money eh?
    Electric brakes work good ?

    I added spare & plywood sides

    The trailer is rated at 7500#. I estimate there was at least 8,000# on it. I use to have wood side rails, but used them to replace the flooring that rotted. No electric brakes. So it wasn't gonna stop. :eek:

    8000 lbs & No brakes :eek:
    Trailer supplier's have them to retrofit almost any axle.
    Wiring / modulator kits too.
    Huge difference when loaded.

    Not sure Ohio's laws for towing , some places require brakes over certain weight.

    Drive slow & stay close to home :)
