A friend told me piano dollies are your friend when moving these things.

Only thang worth a damn in those pics is what might be a brushless Makita XDT14 3-speed 1/4” impact wearing a 5 Ah batt, looks like. And of course that fancy piano dolly!

Been fighting off some sort of respiratory bug the last couple days, and just taking it easy. My father calls me up; insisting he needs me to bring "A big saw" over "right now."

I tried explaining the fact I am sick and trying to recover; but he wasn't having it.

Load up the 395 and drive over there, to find out he only needed a 6' section cut off the end of this thing, but, off the small end (maybe 18" at the widest point) . I used his MS250 and told him if he just wanted to spend time together he doesn't need to make up excuses...

The log dolly. Let's see more of that.

So are you saying if he was cuter you'd "tag in"?

I'd hit it.

The log dolly. Let's see more of that.

I will get better pictures of it next time I'm over there. It's essentially a homemade cherry-picker with a 12v hydraulic pump/tank on it. Runs off a deep cycle battery. Use the log tongs to pick and drag log up onto frame, set it down, lift again further back, set it down, and repeat until it's far enough forward for travel. It was an afternoon project that has proven really useful for odds and ends that came off the scrap pile. Gotta use whats in front of you, right?



Edit: my brother just sent me this. Rear wheels are just welded on a cross bar and held on with a come-a-long. You can kinda see the setup. If the butt end were forward, the trailing axle wouldn't have been needed to move this 12' elm log

It's an old Case from the 60's I can't remember the specific model right off, there was a bunch of them depending on configuration.

Here's a couple pics of it, one it helping me build the shop with a custom cut 6"x12" beam for a header.

Evening lads.
It's been another beautiful day here, if not somewhat sobering.
Mrs Adam insists each trip has an educational element, the catch to us putting such a high stead on learning.
Today we went to Waitangi museum, site of the signing of our contentious foundation documents.
This exhibit in particular sounded a chord...
