I use the same containers for my wood, they work great!

It is the best way that I have found so far.

Electric winches aren稚 made for that kind of work. They have a very short duty cycle. They壇 burn up in short order doing that. Even if that didn稚 happen you値l pretty quickly deplete the atv battery since the charging system can稚 handle that load.

Nevertheless there are people out there doing it which is why I asked.

Yes SR firewood will get shorter when he gets older............

Nope, 18 inches is the biggest that this stove will burn. Had I not finished off my cellar I would still have my Nashua that burned 24 - 26 inch logs

My insert burns 18 inches in the back and 22 inches up front. So I cut to 18 inches.

Agreed. I have an ATV 3500# winch. It's still in the box, just haven't had the time, & only got the ATV stuck once, so haven't really needed it. But even a top quality winch won't last for skidding.

I've got a cheap, 3500# Harbor Freight winch mounted on my Coot (and antique UTV). I have not gotten around to wiring it up yet. Coots are amphibious, and famous for not getting stuck (though it helps if you are not an idiot about driving into swamps). I added the winch more for trail clearing use than for getting myself unstuck. I would not attempt something like logging with it, but I would not hesitate to use it for short pulls like getting unstuck or to get things out of my way.

Nan that is awesome. My first cousin is a nun in a reclusive estate but we email each other a fair amount. She can't wait to go fishing with me. She tends to the farm chores at the Estate. One day I met her in Newburnswick. Mother superior drove up. I gave her a hug goodbye. Mother superior's eye almost popped out of her head. I was going to do some dirty dancing with her but I figured she would get into a lot of trouble if I did.

When I was a little kid, my mom's best friend from college would visit and stay with us often. She was a nun. She was hilarious! So fun. She and my mom were quite the pranksters in college. I remember coming out of my bedroom and sister Sarah was coming out of the bathroom in a pink fuzzy bathrobe and drying her hair. No nun clothes or habit. :shocked: I thought I was going to heck for seeing that. :laughing: She said something like "I'm off duty." and laughed hard at my shocked expression.

Every once and while when you bring that coont up you need to refresh my memory with a picture, no I dont get tied of looking at repeats, even if it's atv's or tractors.................

This little stove heats my living room to 80. My Nashua would have had it well over 100.

There ARE times when one of those Logrites would have really been handy! I sure could of used one on this job,

I had no other choice than to skid into a sand pit, to load.

You could get an I-beam and an axle and make a small log hauler using a 55 gallon drum cut in half the long way. lift the log onto the hauler with your bucket and hault it away from the other end. I think I will make one of these just to try it out.
