End of an era for me

[Woodworks]

yes they are very good i had one it just fell to bits and it allways left some in

I think the tipper conversion was about 3k with a split swinging board to seperate 2 single loads you could back down a narrow alley and tip without getting out just a yank on a rope to unlatch the back door

I was difficult to tip in garages a few close calls tipping inside and of course when the logs came out the pickup would rise 6" or so

 

Yes mine is like Triggers broom and you do have to clear a few left logs but I use my truck with a canopy for other work so the Loadhandler gives me versatility. Also nearly got caught out with the truck rising after unloading. Fortunately just able to squeeze out under the door without reloading the logs haha.

I got thinking , my best purchase to do with firewood has got to be my tipping pickup .

It would take about 15 to 20 mins to through out 1.5 cube of logs , the pickup would hold 3 cube and take about 30 secs to empty

Whats your best buy ??

 

My best buy could be my fiskars x21 axe, I was doing a stupidily underpriced log splitting job with the digger a few weeks ago when the digger starter motor burnt out, this little axe that I had only bought the day before tore through the rest of the pile. I can't wait to buy and use an x27 for my next load, and I currently own 3 powered splitters!

The other possible best buy is the porter saw horse, so much more efficient and safe than cutting cordwood on the floor.
