Small scale timber extraction

[timberbear]

Old pallet forks on the back of my compact. Great at doing wheelies!

I use a skidding arch behind a Polaris Ranger, works beautifully and barely leaves a mark, important seeing as the timber i was extracting in the pictures is in a nautre reserve. The poles in the last picture are 16metres long.

This looks like it could be a good starting point for a smaller machine - Bet it wouldn't take a lot to get drive to the trailer and a crane bolted on.

I have now stuck the quad and trailer on ebay and also revised the classifieds price which is cheaper than ebay if anyone is interested.

Found a pic of our little rig, although actually it's more of a middle rig as we also have a logic timber trailer like the one theo is selling, but we only really use it on very small stuff to be handballed. This one however we use allot & it's excellent.
