What happens here

Upon arriving at the property, the creator needs to clear an area of existing materials, including logs, to create a flat drying space for the newly delivered milled logs. He begins by using a log splitter to move and manage some of these pre-existing logs. Subsequently, a CastLoaders Carbon 331 mini loader, equipped with a grapple attachment, is deployed to efficiently unload the logs from the trailer. The logs are then carefully placed in the designated drying area, stacked flat to prevent warping.

Goal: Clear a flat, suitable area for storing newly delivered logs and unload them efficiently.

Tools and materials

Grapple attachment — Securing and lifting logs with the mini loader for efficient handling
Log splitter — Moving and splitting existing logs to clear space for new materials
