I agree, I have a file of tractor modifications and trailer ideas that came from a number of people. Not to mention all the different ways that people handle their firewood.

Better to learn from the mistakes others have made than repeat them yourself.

Early last winter I cleared some blow downs from one of the tractor roads. I pulled them out to a landing and left them for the winter. I went out today to work them up into fire wood.

I have a 3000 lb dump trailer that will hold a 1/2 cord thrown in and a 22 ton splitter. If you have one of these splitters you'll notice that I turned the beam around so the work station is close to the trailer to make for an easy lob into the trailer.

Now it's headed for the wood shed which is a 1/2 mile away.

Gordon gould. How do you like the trailer/wagon. looks pretty handy. how much weight is on the tongue when empty? I assume they have the axle a little behind center to carry 10-15% of the load. I don't have rear remotes but a little dump trailer like that would be some handy.
