New trailer

[PapaDave]

Hey Wendell, I guess I should have just said 1/9th cord. Or maybe 1/3 face, but that's un-pc around here. :cheese:
Funny you guys are mentioning the shorter daylight hours. I was out doing some cutting yesterday, and it hit me too....it's getting dark a little sooner . Funny how that happens every year.
Jeez, next thing you know, it'll be getting cool enough to have a fire in the stove, and then the snow will start.
Dennis, I like that cart. It has more load cap. than mine...I think about double. Less expensive too.
Cabela's, huh? First time I went, saw a gas powered mixer upstairs. Laughed my azz off thinking of all the "campers" in the woods making frozen daiquiri's.

Bert, I admit the Otter does look great but went with this as was a dollar saver and appears to be built well. It also is quiet like yours.

GolfandWoodNut, this is funny. I called Cabela to ask what kind of a hitch this had. "Is it a ball hitch or a wagon hitch?" They said they'd check and about 3 minutes later they came back on the phone and asked if I meant for the trailer or the extra axle. Duh..... the axle.... It does have the wagon hitch so no ball hitch needed.


I won't be hauling much wood in this thing before winter and will try to remember to report again then. The thing went together fairly easily except some instruction was wrong. Also I had to do a bit of grinding because I could not get one cotter pin in the axle as the hole had been drilled a bit off center and could not get the cotter pin through. Also had to twist the zerks so I could grease the axle. Minor stuff. It appears to be built solid and is fairly heavy for the size of it. I like that you can remove the side racks so it should make loading the larger blocks of wood a bit easier.
