I have spoken to alot of people in the logging business and everyone i talk too has got differant ideas and thats driving me screwy!!! Im soooo convinced to offer just hardwood logs and im suprised others think i should do mixed loads, im intend to do this for years and not be here today gone tomorrow

Do you think it is possible to make a full time living from doing logs?

Well im up and running i will post some pics later, i am having second thoughts on buying the matbro as im now thinking the job would be alot better with some sort of timber grab. Any one got any suggestions?

Im in the same position myself as im just setting up, Im sure if you can supply good quality logs with good service you will be fine. the problem i see is too many people will do logs one year but not the next you have to approach it as a long term business

Was wondering what chainsaw you all use when your wood is to big for your processor? A husqvarna 570 chainsaw has been recommended to me, I have little experiance of using a chainsaw what do you all think?

As i will be storing logs in large bags if i do get a bobcat then i can lift the bags on to my truck

i will be working on my own so i dont want to be stop starting all the time

you do have a point so i might be better off getting a grab device fitted to my tractor and then get a log deck

not got a log deck yet wanted to get the lifting sorted out first, i was thinking of building a log deck out of scaffolding poles?
-
I think cutting it in half is only a short term solution
