As most of you know, I have been using my little wood trailer to bring home my firewood, and have been stacking the wood above the racks. Quit time consuming.
Today I decided to take my new trailer that I built last winter, to the woods and load it. I had a lot of big heavy blocks at this landing that I chose not to try lifting, so the jib pole on the splitter got a real workout today also.
It took me an hour less to fill the big trailer, as the wood just tumbled off the elevator with minimal rearranging, and I had lots of smaller rounds that didn't require splitting and I tossed them directly on the trailer to round out the top of the load.
I won't know how this load compares to the 1.4 cord loads that I stack on the smaller trailer, until I unload and stack it. I have yet to repair the 4x36" lift cylinder, so the hour that I gained in loading it will likely be offset when unloading and stacking it.
