Why didn't you make it easier on your back by cutting them in quarters. That's going to be some fine wood

@BigWoodMountain 8 күн бұрын

@@cherylshannon-vp7uc That’s probably a good way to go. Cutting them all in quarters would have just taken more time and I wanted to be able to roll them.

Them are some big ol rounds. You would benefit from building yourself a hoist / winch that you could attach to that trailer. Not hard to build with a boat winch and you'd be able to gather them rounds up hill and right into the trailer. I have vid on my chanel of one I built years ago, thing is handy AF.
