Mu Kubota with a cinch chain works just fine.

New Holland L170 Skid Steer. Bucket for the brush and forks to lift 6' lengths up out of the dirt and to a place of my liking for bucking

I use our Cat IT28B. It is very handy, some day will get a Bobcat to go with it.

And getting the wood out of the woods from other fields when I can't load up my crates I use our Int 656 with an old trailer.

And my truck with a little 6x10 utility trailer.

Log hauler does double duty!

Manual pickup? That truly sux. I did it ONCE, when I had rain coming and no help to stack on the wagon. Next time, the hay gets rained on instead.

Nice outfit, looks like maybe a 575 baler? I use an old 268, still works like a charm after 30+ years.

I use two hands, and two feet...

Unless I'm helping my father-in-law... & then we use an old manure spreader hooked up to his Leyland or the M.

you carry every piece of firewood, from where ever you cut it, to your pile?

That's my old NH 311 Hayliner with the standard sweep pick up. The super sweep pick ups are too good at finding little leftover pieces of firewood that hide in the edges of my field; get one in the bale chamber and it's all over for your feed tines, needles, or plunger knife! Last time I priced a New Holland needle they were over $600!

The 268 was/is one fine machine; they just don't make equipment like that anymore. We literally wore out a 1958 Super Hayliner 67, which the 311 replaced in 1983. (The bale chamber actually got too thin to support it's weight: coulda' welded reinforcement, but didn't)

That pic makes my back hurt just looking at it. You need a machine with a kicker and a wagon.....

I haven't thrown hay since I was 18. If I was around you I would help. We use to toss it in the loft. The first elevator to hi the farm way for firewood. That last row on the trailer really sucked. Once my brother and I moved out dad started using round bales.

Pretty much - the caveat is that i cut it, haul it to the back of the Subaru, put it in, drive home, unload it, carry it to the splitting area, hand split, stack, go back (if I don't have child-care duties) repeat the process.

I did get a tree service to drop off a chinese elm trunk in my backyard & I cut& split that right next to the stacks. That was nice. I always keep my ears out in the neighborhood for chainsaws b/c most homeowners here don't have a saw big enough to get through anything more than 18" & they don't want to split it anyway.

I also don't get to cut as much as I'd like to - if I were doing it more regularly & putting more up, I'd probably have pickup.
