Why didn't I do this before?

[@matthewnasci2646]

You have the right size tractor for hauling a load of firewood. You have gained some efficiency in gathering wood. I always try to come up with ways to make my tasks easier. That's driven by age, low back problems etc.. Anything that saves time and effort is an asset.

@@matthewnasci2646 that tractor hardly knows there's any wood on the trailer at all! Cheers

[@mikehoward8201]

Now that is working smarter, not harder! I always wonder why more people don’t catch their splits instead of letting them fall to the ground. I am only a home user, but I bring the rounds to my splitter in a garden cart and toss the splits inept o a 2-wheeled wheel barrow to take and stack. I am now 75 yo, but I learned that about 25 years ago ! Ha ha

[@dereksstuff8395]

Great job. Love that tractor!

[@Crickhollowfarms]

@dereksstuff8395 thanks! She a classic tractor for sure!

[@harpoonlouis]

And a big open mesh deck to let the junk fall clear, very good

[@Crickhollowfarms]

@@harpoonlouis you noticed one of the best features on that trailer.... snow removal, debris removal.... only a problem when I want to haul manure, dirt or wood chips... then I use cardboard or a tarp

[@jimnorton7993]

Nice set up. That works great.

[@Crickhollowfarms]

@@jimnorton7993 Thanks! It seems to work well!

[@Hestia51]

Looks like a nice clear winter morning!

It was!

Thank you. And thanks for watching and the comment! Cheers

Hmmm! Home made purpose built trailer.vintage tractor with possibly home made splitter. Ingenuity, resourcefulness to the extreme. I’ll bet you hardly spent a dime. Our forefathers knew how to build and improvise. Kudos! 💪

[@Crickhollowfarms]

Any way to save a dollar! Gotta work with what you have! 😊

[@harrygmarshall5157]

Excellent 👍🏻👌🏻

[@Crickhollowfarms]

@@harrygmarshall5157 thanks!

[@CrickhollowAussies]

The dogs thank you for the wood to keep them warm!

[@Crickhollowfarms]

@CrickhollowAussies most of this wood will go to heating the dog house too!

[@philliphall5198]

This is close to the set up I used with my behind tractor wood spitter but it takes a 4430/4440 to handle the weight, made it way too heavy in 1968😢😢😢

[@Crickhollowfarms]

Would be neat to see your setup!

[@cohentheblue]

Make wooden high sides for the cart, easy to double the capacity for it, with no effort stacking the wood on the sides.

[@Crickhollowfarms]

@cohentheblue not a bad idea! Thanks

[@bennym1956]

Winter is sneaky like that, no WARNING that it is coming like that every year when you live in the cold North. And fresh split wood doesn't burn like seasoned wood...hint hint.

[@Crickhollowfarms]

@bennym1956 good thing it's dead ash!

[@leonardguccini3276]

I wish I could work that fast

[@Crickhollowfarms]

@@leonardguccini3276 😆 me too!

[@thomaslawson-j6s]

Think about putting sides on the trailer

[@philliphall5198]

Need side boards in the rear of trailer or just rework the trailer completely 😊

[@Crickhollowfarms]

Wouldn't hurt to do some more modifications. Maybe someday... always projects to do... 😂

CrickHollow, eh? My property in New Brunswick, Canada is called CrickHollow. It comes from the name of the area where Still Brook empties into Mill Creek. Where does your name come from?
