Arbor trolley eat your heart out!

[Dan Curtis]

Knocked this up for a job where a load of cord had to be extracted in lengths with a 4x4. Would've taken ages loading up high and very little payload space on a 130. The prototype was done in about 50 minutes one evening, then having tested (and broken:blushing:) it, the MkII is now operational.

 

The front bolster bit is moveable, depending on timber lengths. It does fit on my roof rack in one piece or with a quick removal of the axle pins, it'll fit inside the back of my truck in two pieces. Today was the MKII's second outing, and we managed to get a faily hefty lump on it by putting the trailer on its side and rolling the biggun' on.

 

The MkIII will include a skidder arch, but will wait until I get a job that needs it. Not bad for £62.00, and most of that was the wheel bearings!

woops missed the 130 bit,,,,,,

get it marketed a good bit of kit

Most trips the truck was either full of chip or shorter offcuts. These are the last few trips from today once all the chipping was done. It would've been killer handloading that into the 130 and the bigger bits were unliftable. The job spec was to get it roadside in lengths. We've probably moved near on 4 tons of timber with it now
