That nut roaster with the blade is neat I've never seen one before.

Hey it might be a nut roaster in the summer, but in the winter it's a ball warmer.

Tha's my favorite mower, it's a 1960 Suburban. It's a unrestored running with all the orginal decals. It needs a few things, but still it's in better shape than most restored one's I've seen.

I just wish I had one with a bucket like you have on your's.
 
Here is ours
92 F-350 4x4 7.3 w/55K original miles
97 F Super Duty (Dad's unit)
85 Dodge D-250 Was free for the taking!

And for the chunks too heavy to lift my stepdad has a Toro Wheel Horse 520xi with a bucket loader like this one.

How is that bucket loader? I've got a 520xi and I was considering getting that same loader (if I can find one somewhere!) Do you know the max lift capacity on it? Easy to hookup and take off?
 
This is my everyday logging truck. I've since added Ford Torsion bar keys and added a rear leaf spring as well as 285/75/16 Wildcat's. so it now sets up 3.5" higher in the front and 3" in the rear. Can't put a whole lot of wood in it since i have my toolbox in there, but when u are cutting in your back yard u don't have far to go!

This is my preferred method of hauling wood!

Owning a sawmill, ensures that i always have access to plenty of firewood. Many times i haul a load home after a day of sawing out logs...

Trim that center post will ya? thats buggin me.
:D:D:D
i will, i will, I am going to trim all of them at a angle for water to run off andthen get a coat of Thompsons all of them before winter... we was in hurry last week when i built them in a couple hours after work. ;)
oh it bugs me too but there are only 24 hrs in a day :(
 
The two on the left are C-120's and will pull almost anything and nearly anywhere.
They both have wheel weights and chains, and one has a set of V-Bar tires.
Since they are only 12 hp they'll forever on a gallon of gas. The 520-H is the primary grass mowing tractor.

Another of my woods rigs...07 Arctic Cat 650H1 TRV w/ trailer for getting around in the woods. Absolutely great for manuevering through the woods grabbin the dead stuff. I can put a box on the back like in the pictures...or a seat for cruising w/ the youngsters.
 
Mine uses no gas or diesel

Here's mine. there's no way I can get anything else into this part of my lot yet, so this wheelbarrow has been my wood hauler. It burns no gas, but a cold beer & barbecued steak will make it move faster.

Jokes aside, this old wheelbarrow was built by my Dad & Granddad about 40 years ago. It's rugged and ergonomically perfect. You can't buy these at the big box stores!:laugh:
