Put the tractor arch to work today.
Moved a 17' x 28" big dia X 22" small dia., at the mill as a test.
After shifting the lift point several times for balance ,the hand wench handled
the weight nicely. Was a pretty good load on the F 250.
I can bind the front on the arch, but I will add an extension (pin hole in arch for wench)
to keep the rear of the log steady.
I can see it being used for forwarding up north.

Dutchman,

  You need to come see my improved version. I had borrowed a Tractor Arch from a friend for 6 mons. then returned, his built mine with some usage improvements. They factory unit is great, I just tweaked a few thing for my usage. Give me a call some time.
