1st day Working at the sawmill

What happens here

The Bobcat skid steer is used to carefully move the sawmill to the log pile. The narrator reiterates the difficulty of backing the trailer with the skid steer due to the chain hitch, which allows for excessive movement, risking damage to the sawmill's control box. After repositioning the sawmill, the skid steer is then used to lift and load the logs onto the sawmill's bed. Two logs are loaded at a time.

Goal: Move the sawmill to the logs and begin loading
