Has anyone used a silage grab on the loader to lift logs, obviously it wouldn't be much use on very large ones, but those 12"-15"?

Rumours around that said farmer is now en EX tenant of NT.

Log splitter help please

Moi aussi. Can't recommend it enough, not cheap but very well built, I am also doing 1m billets. -
Environmental impact of woodburning
Cosmiccrofter replied to Smurnov's topic in Log burning stoves and fireplaces
Geogre Moonbat is a first class pot stirrer who will do/say anything to get readers attention. A lot of middle class socialites have had woodburners fitted in recent years because it salves their conscience about using a natural source of heat, if they actually use the bloody thing!!! I doubt they use it half a dozen times a year, then having it swept, decide it is better/cleaner using it as a room feature. -
I have been burning larch for over fifty years, best firewood you can get, first on an open fire then the last forty years in a woodburner. Yes I am an old codger!!!

I'm looking for a new PTO saw bench and came across Gwaza, I've never heard of them before, are they a generic chinesium saw?

Chap has been done for underage sheep-shagging.

That is exactly what I'm after, some of the metre lengths are 600/700mm dia and are damned heavy to move around for this old codger.

I am now splitting billets of around 1m lengths from sometimes big logs, some of them are b****y heavy. I would like to fix a cheap electric winch to the splitter to drag the lengths from the pile without putting this ageing back out. My question is, is it possible run the winch from a starter booster pack, or would it run down very quickly. Alternatively, could I make up a seven pin socket to plug into the tractors trailer socket? Would that have enough "juice?"

Some photos?

You have obviously never owned a Leyland!! Brakes were an optional extra.
-
Ah, I see now, there is a reduction gearbox. Costs almost as much as I got for the old Leyland!!
-
Sorry I'm being thick, do you mean the saw's PTO shaft is connected directly to the engine, surely it should be indirect? Can you put up a photo/diagram?
-
I'm afraid I don't have the skills to be able to do that.
