[QUOTE="mainewoods, post: 4762483, member: 40238"] The main reason I prefer log length skidding is that it eliminates halving, and lifting rounds, big or small. Once the log is on my landing, it is cut up, flipped over, and split. The only time I need to lift any wood is when it is splits or small rounds and I'm tossing them into a pile, or using a wheel barrow to stack rows. Eliminating lifting rounds in the woods into a trailer, and lifting them again emptying the trailer at the processing area, was my goal. Anytime I can eliminate a step, I'm all for it, as long as production doesn't suffer. I already lift the wood enough times as it is, why handle it in the woods too if I don't need to. The best reason is that I am 6 or 7 years ahead with my wood, and gaining. I'm in no hurry. [/QUOTE]
