You are going to be busy for awhile Brad and nice that Brady was able to hitch a ride for part of your day.

[JoesFirewoodVideos]

Pine is fine for campfire wood/bundles. That ash and hickory load that you brought Jack was outstanding, I’m sure he’ll be processing it with the Axis and making video(s).

With the storms that just hit down there you & Chas are going to be very busy in the coming weeks.

You should split and sell some of that pine. It's the best stuff for a camp fire with the snap crackle pop and good flame it makes.

[LogCabinFirewood]

Dang you were busy that day!!!
I appreciate everything you've helped me with. Give me another week I should be ready for another load!!!

[robert.brokaw]

Good days work Brad - howdy Brady. Stay safe.

[jameschandler]

Glad to see the truck is working good for you. I met Jack at the Hoosier Hysteria. You are growing and diversifying your business.

[EwenRoberts-oo]

Your a busy man at the wood. Great video.

[thefirewooddoctor]

Jack is a pretty decent guy. He should feel blessed to have fiund a good friend in you. Hopefully you can keep the logs flowing to him. Wish I could do a grapple truck. Would make getting "free wood" a lot easier.

Great video brad. I loved riding in the log truck with my dad.

[davidedwards]

Great video!! Glad Brady could ride along!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day

[brandonhoad]

Wow, those biggest sticks 40" + ?

[leonardryan]

Brad nice if you get some hardwood pad for your hydraulic foot 🦶, them your not leave in print in people pavement loading and under timber. Some day you might be into lifting heavy timber with the boom truck . Just THINK 🤔 SAFETY and always put SAFETY FIRST in your jobs . 😊

If thats a drop box design, not a dump bed.
Need to keep eyes open for something id call a hay rack.
Probably have a different term for it back east, but basically a
Reduced empty weight to move more. As it would look more like a log truck. Then a brush truck.

if longer saw logs where more valuable left longer you could move them.
.
Definitely different then the Olympic brand loaders i see out west on trucks. Thats for sure. There pushing the limits all year, and welding repairs annually is quite common.
As the abuse of a 40 foot log swinging through the air, is far more then a 12 or 16 foot one.

Hello Mr. Brad, That truck sure makes short work of picking up big logs, and you made your first delivery to the man I suspected to be your first delivery. as soon as I saw the conveyor I knew I was right.

[rickrogala]

Brad, how much weight can the truck carry & can you tell how much weight is loaded? Thanks RO GA LA!!!
