Give it another leg.

Someone, I believe Brad Snelling designed a kick stand that attached to the bucking spike.

Wouldn't just an outside spike keep it upright?

About a third cord of split hardwood so far. Slow going even with the S2800. Trying to fill the trailer before dark which may or may not happen.

Guy on FB posted some pics of his saw haul setup on his tractor. Gonna see about ordering this and mounting it to my roll bar.

Why does that cost about three times what it looks like it should?

Because they expect anyone with the $$$ to buy a tractor will spend $$ to buy their accessory.

The rain showed up so I didn’t get much more wood done. Oh well there’s always tomorrow.

I think the 154 will be getting a muffler mod and timing advance this weekend.

A couple of chainsaw mounts for the tractor are on my to-do Winter hibernation/mods list. It's a long list.

Yeah, not real impressed with the price. I think it's worth about half what they're asking.

But, if it does what I need and is well built, I may pull the trigger. Actually, I may send it to the wife as a gift idea for the next bday or Christmas.

The green paint guys can afford it, not us lowly blue paint owners. LOL!

Same here. Haven't checked the gauge yet, but we for a good soaking.

I have two loads to split, which I hope to get done tomorrow after work. Here's hoping anyway.

Please share when you do! Would love to see what you come up with.

A good buddy of mine is a tool maker, and I'm tempted to pick his brain. knowing him, he'd have something built for me in a few days...

I'm truly blessed with some amazing friends.

That chainsaw holder wouldn't be hard to build at all...

Will do but it won't be fancy. Just plywood laminated together. CCA preservative green, until that silvers off in the sun ;-)

Just one particular shade of green?
