Poor man's live deck. Stand up and saw the logs, roll on splitter, throw in box, carry to basement door with tractor.

Wow, so many questions!
1. Nice grapple; home made or bought?
2. Interesting splitter; any more pics and/or details?
3. What is that grating that it appears you have your wood stacked on?

  How much can you lift with the grapple?
