Does anyone use log holders?

[doobin]

I use a digger and grapple to saw oversized logs that I can't fit through the processor. These logs are around a foot to two feet wider than the one you have shown clamped.

 

Good thing about using a digger is it grabs them, runs them over to where you want to be and then holds them at a comfortable height while you saw them. Its a lazy bastards best friend, just need to teach it to do the sawing as well and then I'm all sorted.

 

Work smarter, not harder!

Have done similar with the forwarder crane or front loader grab on the tractor

Looks like a good design and safe.

 

But......

 

Its so so slow sawing logs one at a time like that.

 

I've been using a sawhorse made from a pallet, a piece of 4x2 and 10 pieces of 2x2. i can put about half a dumpy bag worth of logs (of just about any length) in it in one go.
