I have been wanting to build something for a while to carry logs on the carry all frame. Only I wanted to make sure it was easily removable as I use the forks to move pallets around. So this is what I came up with. I can carry about a 1/3rd cord between this and the bucket on the 3032e.

It is very stable and removes or installs in about 5 seconds.

I used some 1/2" pipe for my locks. They get pushed in when you want to remove it.

Here is the notch to help keep it in place:

All loaded up. My brother in law gave me a hand for a few hours. He's getting better at this.

What we got out that day. Guessing about a cord on the 18 ft trailer. I've got a 16 ft gooseneck dump on order and can't wait to get it!!! About 12k payload vs the 5k payload of my current trailer.

You are seriously expanding your production in the past year!

The big tote I built for the tractor here is the handiest heavy equipment tool I use. Mine is wooden though as my welding skills are lacking. I just pick it up with the hayforks.
 
I almost built a rack out of wood or wood/metal combination but the 3032e doesn't have that much, although better than the 8N, 3 pt lifting capacity. So I kicked around ideas until I came up with this the night before I really could use it.

This really helped getting some of the wood to the landing:

We were cutting all the small stuff and letting it sink in the mud to help stiffen it up.

are you still cutting the same place?

This is at a new spot near my sister in laws. The lot that I was working on last year, that got me started in all this, was completed last Fall. I am also working on a lot near my place of employment that I'm essentially competing with others cleaning up after loggers. Probably enough to keep everyone bust there until this Fall.

Here is some shots from the one close to work:

A borrowed wagon from my uncle to use for a bit when it's too slippery to get the truck and trailer to the back of the field.

a winch and a rear grapple? you just have all the fun tools. still got the front brush grapple too?
 
Great looking toys...errr tools you guys get to play with! Really like that grapple. Thanks for the idea of the carryall for the 3pt hitch I need to weld up something like that. What did you use for the piece you have attached to the 3pt...fab that or did you purchase?
 
Sorry...found it ... looks like county line Carry all is your base piece and you fabed the other section to hold the logs.
Thanks!! Hope you don't mind me stealing your idea!
