Almost ended up with video for the ring of fire last summer Lazerdan

I sure would get sick of turning that winch, I'd just use a cant hook with some anti-rollback ramps! (except on the really heavy logs). Looks like the winch could be geared a lot higher though, man that takes way too long!

I would get sick of running around the mill to unload a board also, just throw 'em onto the arms or stack them on the same side you are on!

One of these days a hydraulic loader will be added... I'm filling up the swear jar quick using the manual winch. :D

The time has come for me to start ignoring my newest lady... I am missing my old girlfriend and want to spend some time with her. She may not be as shiny as the Orange Blossom Special, but I find her very satisfying... Her name?

 

The Water Dawg  ;D ;D ;D

Are you in the business of pounding in wells too? That looks like an old neighbors rig...well one of the several that he had that is. ;)

Or maybe just fishing out and replacing pumps?

[tyb525]

Neat old truck!!

[Ruffneck]

I hope to be in the business soon Beenthere... Right now I'm in the rigging business. I just picked up 600' of new drilling cable, it's the last bigticket item.  8)
I ended up finding her for sale in the Capital Press. When I called it turned out to be for sale five miles south of my Goldendale Washington place... I paid $1,000 and he delivered it for me. 
I hope to be drilling my well soon...Water is Life!

I like the parking brake. ;)

[Ruffneck]

That "parking brake" has been in my way since I found it... It even followed the rig to the drill site :D

[sandhills]

They must multiply, I have an almost identical one that follows dad's old grain truck everywhere!

Enjoyed it Ruffneck. Wish you lived closer with that pound rig. The wife is making noise about a flower watering well. Not in the plans for now, to expensive here. Nice videos also.

[customsawyer]

Great video.

[Ruffneck]

Thanks for the great replies everyone!

In my area they charge $21 per foot plus casing and all the needed supplies. I've seen well reports in the area as deep as 700 feet without producing any water. The owner gets charged for a very expensive post hole in those cases.

When I look at that old truck I envision a self loading log truck. After I drill my first well, I may end up putting the drill rig on a trailer and start to work on the log truck... It's just an idea that popped into my head after posting the pic... I have no idea whether this would be a good truck for logging or not. There's always new things to learn. ;D

One foot deep.... So Far :P

Stay Safe!

 Made me my first sawbuck today. That should make processing my slabs a little bit easier ;D

When I joined I thought "some of these people have over a thousand posts... They must have too much time on their hands". Knowledge is power and there isn't more knowledge anywhere than the ff. I love this place. I wish my sticker stacks looked like yours
