Nope didn't take a log out of it. Not taking alot of saw logs out of this stuff, non of it has the length. All measure out at about 6-7 feet.

nice set up. i was taking tree length wood out this summer in that same fashion. Kubota 40ish HP tractor and a Farmi winch. For the size of the equipment i was very surprised what the tractor and winch could pull. we took out a nice red oak tree lenth at about 30 feet tall, with a butt end of about 20".
