You done a good job with what you had . Like Mr Tyler Sheppard said , take the side off or make the side out of 4 pipes that will fold down like ramps and put your winch on the opposite side and use the winch to roll the logs on the trailer . Just an idea I seen on another video .
I got a old sears suburban lawn tractor, with trailer, several years back for free. The tires were flat and it had some surface rust but overall great shape. The lady obviously didn’t know what she had and just wanted it gone. I did a bit of carb work and it always starts and runs great. They are great little work horses.
You should be backing up to the end of the log then hooking your log tongs up to the front of the log near the bottom 1/4 , lift up till the log sits on the edge then move your tongs farther down the log and slide it in . If your afraid to lift the front of the trailer put drop down pipes with plates on the bottom at the back two corners ! Just a suggestion !
Build an outrigger for the trailer... When I built trailers for 16' fiberglass portable transmit/receive satellite dishes, so with wind loading on site, they wouldn't blow over or move, I used 4 telescoping square tubes with a trailer jack on each end with pins to hold them in the in or out position. I could also lift the trailer off it's wheels and level the trailer to make it easier to track the satellites. The outriggers were the width of the trailer...
I bought the same crane for my dump trailer I want to make some changes he sells a 3 ton ram and make the boom a little longer and raise the crane up so get more height one tip your out riggers should be out a little father so the trailer is not so tippy when you pick up some thing heavy
This reminds me of when I was younger. I thoroughly enjoyed the video. I wish you the best in life .
Nice job well done .Cheers
Very interesting.
Not surprised the crane did the job but I’m amazed the trailer didn’t just flip over on top of you. Great work

Excellent technique
You need a open Sideboard or a longer Crane Arm .I got a Loger Arc on my Pickup ,that works good !

Peter quilt was my hero until I so your video.👍
Get that saw Mill yet?
Hello and good afternoon buy you a snatch block and it will double your lifting power
I bought the same crane for my dump trailer I want to make some changes he sells a 3 ton ram and make the boom a little longer and raise the crane up so get more height one tip your out riggers should be out a little father so the trailer is not so tippy when you pick up some thing heavy
Good job where I can buy the grapple
Would like to see how you attached base to your trailer, thanks
Kubota B2301 with landpride grapple will lift those all day
I want to see you drive the mower up a 50% hill . With a bigger log. No chains to.
