Awesome job on the Forwarder! Now you just need a skidder.. Cool vids too!

[sneaky-pete]

Nice work,and nice trailer!

[tc1cat]

Forwarder looks nice!! I think you need some extentions on the trailer! Just a little narrow. Trailer does look nice.

well the fowarder is almost done now to start on a skidder just not sure if to do a grapple or cable skidder what do you guys think just not sure if i want the exspense of hydraliks this time

[Snochaser]

I would go with a grapple, if you do cable then you will have to manually hook up your logs by hand, otherwise you can just do it while sitting back with the grapple. I'm sure someone here has another solution for hydraulics they would assist you with.

[td9clyde]

nice job Neil keep it up have fun with building your skidder hope it all works out

[mog]

most grapple skidder have a winch on them as well. but i would say go with the grapple cus well than you can sit back and hall logs all day long from you lawn chair. keep up the good work.

Trucker N,

That 1110 looks great, But I am interested is finding out where I can get some of that lumber. I'm looking for about a dozen 2 foot pieces in various diameters. They need to be as straight as possible. Any ideas?..

head out to the woods with a saw. That way you can pick and choose.

[rockNmayhem]

Ok, what do I think....... Well, first I think it looks great and that it came out as expected. Second I'm kinda dissapointed though, after all those pics I feel like something is still missing.



Oh ya, a video!!! We need moving pictures.
