  • I need a logging winch to use with my tractor. I could buy one, but I won't be happy. I want it to be remotely controlled and capable of controlling the spooling AND the unspooling action. And yet, to be driven by the tractor PTO. And to suit my needs, 3-ton pulling capacity would be plenty enough for my small 35hp Case 430 tractor. So I decided I would make my own version of it!

    Sounds funny maybe, but I've wanted the perfect winch for logging and have been you-tubing for 10 years now trying to find a genius. I'm not sure I will have the ability to copy the same, but I'm willing to try.

    What a beautiful piece of engineering! This is going to be near impossible to top!
    My only thought; do you plan to implement some type of emergency stop/ safety override? God forbid there is a sudden frequency interference on the winch controller, somehow causing the winch to stay on. Yes unlikely, but this winch seems like a tremendous amount of power/force to be trusted with our beloved cheap Chinese winch controllers. Stay safe my friend!

    • @FromSteelToWood
      @FromSteelToWood  9 місяців тому

      Ah!!! great point there! I think the fail side of the controller is to miss the signal, not to keep it on. Do you think so? I do have a switch on the winch to shut down the whole thing. Not an E-stop, but a switch. Once the winch is well planted into the ground, it will kill the engine before it pulls the tractor back, even on neutral. Thanks!

    • @OldSoulMillennial
      @OldSoulMillennial 9 місяців тому

      @@FromSteelToWood As you know, I installed that cheap aftermarket amazon winch controller on my Jib. I've experience instances where I will press Up (Winch in), and sometimes, the winch will stay on a few seconds after I've released the button. Sometimes I hit the Down (Winch Out) button momentarily, and that stops the winching.
      Hopefully you don't have this same occurrence with your setup, just wanted to pass the info along!

    That`s a big project, Joe. I made a winch about 30 years ago with about as much capacity as yours and I made it with a rear end to engage or disengage I would pull the axel out of the spider but I did not have a reverse like you do or a remote. For the time that is as much as I kneaded. Your setup is a lot more complicated. Good luck....CHEERS
