    Skidders are rough and you know you've done a day in it, but there still the best fun

    I make my own cables. I use aluminum crimp sleeves & stainless thimbles. I made up a crimp die made of two solid blocks of steel the length of the crimp sleeve, with half moon holes (I clamped the two blocks together in the drill press and drilled a hole slightly smaller than the specified diameter) and use the shoppress to crimp them to the specified diameter. Let me know how you get on.😊

    Y’all need marine band radios in your equipment and trucks. Makes the day go by better. Everybody knows where everybody is. If a truck gets stuck ha can call for help. That’s what we use. But we log very rural areas, no signal from any provider. It’s a $200 investment radio, coax and antenna.

    11:51 on the right side are indications that road is a goat path. With just a little work could have been made clear.

    I know you're not a fan of chains, but do you think its cost effective to put a set on this skidder? Give us your thoughts on the pros and cons. 👍🏼
