So no planking today. Moving the big one. At 5.5 mt in length and a diameter of 60cm at the narrow end, I would estimate the weight (24"x30"x17` at about2701 lbs A very long ton and the rest ;-)
I forgot to charge the camera batteries and only managed a video of me dragging the lighter of the two logs, moved today. sorry.
The big one was rolled by securing a rope with a hook on the far side and then wrapping the rope around it once over the top and tying it to the tow ball of the quad. A large wedge of wood was placed under the rope at the top to increase the overall diameter and give a bit more leverage. Two pulls and she rolled out nice. I note looking back at this blog that there is no picture of the big log in its new position.......Mmmmmm.
All in all a good days work. Big thanks going out the the quad She was in super low 4 wheel drive with diff lock on. The full works.
Put felt on the shed roof and cut the grass too. Happy :-)
