This reminds me of when I was younger. I thoroughly enjoyed the video. I wish you the best in life .

[@willtricks9432]

Nice job well done .Cheers

[@patrickmckowen2999]

Very interesting. I've come to the conclusion that winches should be rated 3 times the capacity for the job you need to do. Cheers

Not surprised the crane did the job but I’m amazed the trailer didn’t just flip over on top of you. Great work

[@rubydespres309]

You should be backing up to the end of the log then hooking your log tongs up to the front of the log near the bottom 1/4 , lift up till the log sits on the edge then move your tongs farther down the log and slide it in . If your afraid to lift the front of the trailer put drop down pipes with plates on the bottom at the back two corners ! Just a suggestion !

[@heikowalter8239]

You need a open Sideboard or a longer Crane Arm .I got a Loger Arc on my Pickup ,that works good !

[@delsmithfishing2891]

You done a good job with what you had . Like Mr Tyler Sheppard said , take the side off or make the side out of 4 pipes that will fold down like ramps and put your winch on the opposite side and use the winch to roll the logs on the trailer . Just an idea I seen on another video .

[@rodm5830]

I got a old sears suburban lawn tractor, with trailer, several years back for free. The tires were flat and it had some surface rust but overall great shape. The lady obviously didn’t know what she had and just wanted it gone. I did a bit of carb work and it always starts and runs great. They are great little work horses.

Excellent technique

[@kiddiescripterkiller]

Build an outrigger for the trailer... When I built trailers for 16' fiberglass portable transmit/receive satellite dishes, so with wind loading on site, they wouldn't blow over or move, I used 4 telescoping square tubes with a trailer jack on each end with pins to hold them in the in or out position. I could also lift the trailer off it's wheels and level the trailer to make it easier to track the satellites. The outriggers were the width of the trailer... In your case, you just would need one near the crane. And calculate the size tubing so it doesn't "fold" up when extended with a load on it. Once you bend a telescoping tube, they are hard to get back in... Don't ask me how I know...

[@Lanninglongarmmowing]

I really like that idea. Might have to do that sometime. I weighed one of the wheels and it actually has about 300 pounds of weight on one side. I thought that was pretty heavy.

[@kiddiescripterkiller]

@@Lanninglongarmmowing it might be 300 lbs, but by the time you get the weight on the opposite side, the wheel on the crane side acts as a fulcrum point so the wheel on the other side might only be 150 at that point... Follow?

[@Lanninglongarmmowing]

Yeah that's true too. Outriggers would be really cool.

[@cedricsimmons2033]

Hello and good afternoon buy you a snatch block and it will double your lifting power

[@roberto052568]

Peter quilt was my hero until I so your video.👍

[@majorpayne5289]

👍

[@davidlesley1328]

Would like to see how you attached base to your trailer, thanks

[@user-dn2rt5lq4w]

Kubota B2301 with landpride grapple will lift those all day

[@ncep4095]

Good job where I can buy the grapple

[@19772001corey]

I bought the same crane for my dump trailer I want to make some changes he sells a 3 ton ram and make the boom a little longer and raise the crane up so get more height one tip your out riggers should be out a little father so the trailer is not so tippy when you pick up some thing heavy

[@bencano1799]

Get that saw Mill yet?

[@tigertoilet2]

I want to see you drive the mower up a 50% hill . With a bigger log. No chains to.

[@barntt]

You Got to LOVE ALL the armchair Quarterbacks! LOL!

[@thehighriseconstructionob9679]

Gunious How many pound of trailer ?

[@wallywally3738]

You really have to rethink your methods of working lol.

[@suemccarter3316]

It is almost as tall as a lambo

[@adrianiorin8896]

That log looks more like 2000 lbs

[@tangoseal1]

Why not cut log in half and drop the weight of each piece 50%

[@Lanninglongarmmowing]

Lumber

[@johngabriele9936]

Is this a harbor freight crane ?

[@Lanninglongarmmowing]

Yes

[@denislosieroutdoors]

Nice little set up eh! you have the start somewhere in the past I have done stuff like this then used it to help generate cash to allow me to buy better equipment (backhoes, dozers, dump trucks, woodlots, apartment buildings etc) all payed for from my hobbies one step at a time... it has worked out great thanks for sharing check out my channel if you would Denis

[@keithsj10]

Toyota hasn't "killed" anything, much less Ford. Scotty's click bait titles 🙄 However, when... IF... Toyota comes out with their 745 mile per charge solid state battery that charges in ten minutes in 2027, that should pair really well with a small wheelbase pickup truck. CAFE regulations have forced auto companies to build larger and larger trucks to keep from violating those standards and being fined. That's why there are no more new company pickups made anymore with dimensions the size of a 2000 Toyota pickup, much less a 1986 Toyota pickup or Ford Ranger. Or a Ford Courier. Or Chevy Luv. THAT would be cool. No CAFE regulations for electric vehicles.

[@wallywally3738]

Why the fuck would you possibly need to transport that entire log if you really don't have the right equipment to do it. Why not just get a chainsaw and axe to cut into more manageable pieces.

[@alstruck8063]

He wants it to be cut for lumber.

[@audreygreen-hite2075]

It's tough to do things the hard way but when you get some equptment there will be nothing you can't do. Your starting out the right way. Luca

[@davidwilliamson2115]

Amazing what a little hard wor cam accomplish when are you going to make a video on cutting the timber out of these logs?

[@My95lebaron]

why not take the side off the trailer so you don't have to life as high?

[@leonardvirtue5753]

Nice.😆 mate

[@raymondgorski5744]

You will buy the skid steer when Harbor freight sells them

[@19772001corey]

Northern tools sells them

[@daniele3275]

Love2boat92 you mentioned a fork elevator ,why you don't make an attachment for the lawn tractor? It should be easy but you have to rinforce the chassis little bit not to much difficult

[@DavidTheCarpenter]

Did you film the mounting of the crane?

[@geraldmoore6257]

Winches are not rated for vertical lifting. Hoists are for lifting. Winches are for pulling rolling vehicles up a slope. I think the rating is for 100% slope which is 45% angle. Vertical would be 90% angle. So, reduce the pull by 13 to 25% for each layer of wire rope and cut the lift by at least half for trying to use a winch as a hoist. I would appreciate someone correcting me if this is wrong. Anyway, good video and I love getting it done without spending a fortune on equipment. I like the old tractor too.

[@miller7759]

Are you in Pa? The video of you cutting the ash tree looks similar to Slippery Rock Creek in Pa?

[@Lanninglongarmmowing]

Wow, you've got a good eye and a good guess. You are correct. Let me guess you went by in a boat?

[@Thylazine]

Sears suburban it is! Looking for a workhorse

[@1ton4god]

🤒🤒🤒 thank God your brother wasn't sitting on the tractor it would be ejected him over the top of it. It'll look like he would have been driving a double O7 car.
