firewood tractors

Great tractor day up here

Even better day when you have a second one to tow you out of the woods

Got to play around this past weekend. Got a Sundown GR40 (Igland GR20) forestry grapple. Have it on the 3032e right now, but it will go on the 5045E once I get the hoses installed/worked out.

Pick up my tractor on Friday!
Kubota 4060 Grand Cab. Turfs, loaded rears, Woods 72 inch heavy duty bucket.

74 inch front mount Snowblower for when winter ultimately tries to kick my butt again


I know I need more attachments, but this wiped me out pretty good for at least this year. hoping for some forks for the front, a grader and a brush cutter for the rear in the future.

That is a sweet setup!

a few updated shots. Still looks pretty much the same, but I just rolled 40 hours on the meter.




When it got to hang out with the rental Cat 304 for a bit.


This was the winter garb. snowblower worked great, sander did decent when it wasn't broken. I've pretty much sorted it out, just human error for most of it.


Bringing wood out.

Got a couple cord out over this past weekend from the farm down the road.

Got stumps out that were in my way:

This hemlock was putting up a bit of a fight going over:

Sometimes it's easier to just load them on the forks by hand:

Probably needed more ballast for this one. Ended up getting the rear tires a few feet in the air:

Red oak and shagbark hickory:

I don't use mine to actually go get wood, yet. But I do use it as a platform/splitting/lifting table with a pallet.

I was hired to skid out some red oak, another guy logged,

He had some loooong sticks!

Today, it's sunny 69* out, so I managed to unload/sort the logs that were on my loaded wagon,

With THAT done, I headed out to get the few logs I didn't have room for on the last load, I also wanted to get the last of the firewood I had skidded out too. SO, I loaded my chainsaw on the winch,

hooked up the now empty wagon, and headed to the woods. First thing I did was to saw out the last log from the big beech I skidded out a few days ago,

The more I use my Husky 550xp the more I LOVE it!

Anyway, here's the last of the saw mill and fire wood logs, that I skidded out the other day,

Now, I need to find the time to mill those Beech logs!!!

I needed a few white oak "saw logs", and a friend had some on his property. He owed me some saw logs to pay me back for a project I did for him, so he told he to have at his white oak tree's. I would have liked them to be bigger, but beggars can't be choosers!! lol

So, it was time to get to them! I got started by hooking my wagon to the tractor and drove to his property and cut a few of them out. Of course I wanted the firewood out of them too, so I skidded the firewood logs out with saw logs,

And once I had them skidded to my wagon, I loaded them up,

Once home, I took the saw logs out of the wagon, then cut all the firewood logs to fire wood lengths. With THAT done, it was time to split all the firewood, and I ended up with a nice pile of "primo" firewood out of those tops,

I was out of half cord boxes to put splits in, so today I built another one...

That's it for today!

my firewood tractor, got it ready to start an in frame on it tomorrow. Got 3500 hours on it but someone used to much ether on it trying to keep it running when it blew up head gasket then I acquired it. You can see the loader in the back ground and there's a set of pallet forks behind the rear tires

I don't do a whole lot of wood cutting any more , we have 3.5 acre's here that has a lot of white pine some hardwood I do what I can to keep it cleaned up cut a few trees a year...I buy most of my fire wood ' but it has to be dumped up front and then moved down back and stacked near the cellar door ...Been using a x500 JD and a trailer but just recently got a new 1023e JD with loader to help not only with the wood but other maintenance around the place... grandson giving it a try

Ever sense I got the 4 wheelers the tractors don't do much but cut grass and brush. But when I spilt wood I use the kubota and carry all, takes the place of 4 wheelbarrows moving wood from splitter to stacks. Much easier on the back to.
