LUMBER PRICES ARE CRAZY! Let's mill up this old log and make our own!
What happens here
Using the TYM T1104 tractor equipped with a loader, logs are offloaded from a transport vehicle (or moved from a pile) and positioned closer to the sawmill. For smaller logs, a Log Ox 3-in-1 Forestry Multi-Tool is used as a cant hook to manually roll them into position on the sawmill's log deck. The host notes that placing the log pile uphill from the sawmill is inefficient.
Goal: Move logs from the pile to the sawmill's log deck.
