    Erik that little mill works pretty good & your new winch system works great :) If you cold park a little closer you might be able to use your log wagon polls to roll the log right onto the mill right from the wagon :)

    You might have to truss your winch beam if it bends before your standard hole fails. Very cool project.

    What is the name of the hand crank winch tool mounted on the vertical pole that you used at the beginning of the video? I am looking for a tool like that for lifting the back of my snowmobile out of the slush when ai get stuck.

    Your ramp and hoist solution is quite clever. I noticed you dropped the logs on the ground before hoisting them. If you parked the trailer closer to the mill, your trailer ramps would rest next to the mill rampa. 😅The logs would roll down into the V created by the ovelapping ramps. You would not need to hoist as high when loading the mill.

    Worked with my Grampa 60 years ago cutting and snaking logs from bulldozed trees. Skidded them to a clearing, and using chains to load on a wagon. Then pull the wagon to the sawmill a couple miles away. Never used a ramp, but then I was driving a tractor and Grampa had a team of mules. We had the power to roll 3 or 4 logs up with that chain at a time, depending on their size. Horsepower does make a difference. Learned a lot about common-sense that summer.

    I've spent so much time thinking of ways to stack logs without the use of horses or machinery, that I'm glad to have found this video. I could tell what was gonna happen for every scenario, including what would work or not, but it was seriously refreshing seeing you try them all, unashamedly. Well done for showing the mistakes man. This'll help others a lot :) I hope you've perfected your technique/s since this video was made :)

    Fascinating video. Thanks for publishing your adventure. I think all the 4-wheel-drive tourists would have driven me crazy. What a mess some of those river crossings were! It looks like your trusty fat bike handled the journey admirably. Just the right bike for such a trip. Pedalling in sandals was so practical for the multiple times you were in and out of water. Could you please let us know about your bike setup? Thanks in advance.

    you have the hydraulic lift on the back of the tractor and the pto use the machine to do the lifting by creating something that lifts the legs via several pullies that the hydraulics can those legs you made off the side.

    Still my favorite design of a bike camper. If I will ever do one myself it will be a copy of this. I would fasten the tarp along the edge above the door and roll it up secured with velcro when not in use. On top I would mount a flexible solar panel and in a compartment in a false bottom I would but Li-Ion batteries. The batteries would partially be for running my ebike and partially for lightning and stuff. The kitchen would be a simple gas camping stove. The outer walls and ceiling would be made of thins sheets of EPS with paper glued on each side with diluted PVA glue. One or both side would be reinforced with really thin "masonite" and then coated with water repellant paint. This would give stiffness, insulation and low weight.
