How I use a Harbor Freight winch to load logs into my sawmill - S1E009

- In this week's video I demonstrate an alternate way to load logs onto the sawmill using a Harbor Freight winch and ramps. I use this method when or if my tractor goes down or when the log is too heavy for the tractor to lift onto the sawmill.
Disclaimer: My video is not a how to instructional video but rather how I do it. Use your own discretion when performing anything similar. Safety is always the priority as large logs are very heavy and can cause serious injury or even death if they hit you. - Розваги
Worked better than I expected it to do. Thanks for posting and especially starting off with your safety concerns, which are necessary to follow or at least consider before starting your work.
Thx for sharing
Traditionally you would use a cable or rope in a V with the center just under the log, with the hook on this bite, this way it will track straight every time and you get a double purchase making it easier on the winch. You will need to move the winch back some. If you read the small print on the winch it says not to use it non stop for more than a few minutes or it will burn up, I have done that.

Using 2 winches u could straighten out the most aggravating of logs
Wood and concrete will drain your battery charge..need a rubber mat to sit it on
Don't set the battery directly on the ground, sometimes it can pull the charge out of the battery! Maybe a box or shelf to set it on.
I have heard that about concrete but not dirt. Either way this was temporary for the video and I am going to install an actual shelf for the battery when I do the solar panel, charge controller, and inverter install.

The Battery case insulates the internal cells from the ground. 12 volts is not enough voltage to overcome the insulation of the base, therefore a 12 volt battery will not discharge through the base to ground or concrete.
@jacklabloom635 Obviously, you have a different opinion, but don't tell me it doesn't happen, I've had a battery do it to me!
@@bebo5558 , I am an electrical engineer. If the a car battery case was conductive between the internal cells and the exterior case, it would discharge to the metal car frame. Most car batteries set directly on metal inside the engine compartment. The negative terminal of the battery connects to the metal car frame. Any conductivity through the battery case would quickly discharge a car battery.
What you experienced was most likely a battery that had a bad cell.
You need to record your work and not show us the after work and if need be speed up the video.
I am starting to as I do more videos... I had to get some items to hold the camera and such. Newbie LOL
