Very cool Ben! Looks like Josh got involved in the cementing project. I'm guessing that he's your son.

I need a lift like that mounted on my trailer to load some of the larger pieces I buck up.

Great job :thumbup:

I need to get a log loader and sell the splitter. I love burning wood but I hate all the handling

Nice job on the lift.  I'll bet next season it will get an upgrade with an electric winch.  I tried the automatic loader once.  Couldn't get that lazy kid out of bed though.  Had to go old school, and do it myself.  I like the idea though.  Trailer mount would be cool too.
