The TH-cam search function baffles me. I have been searching for ideas for trailer cranes for wood for a year, and only now, after having almost finished mine, i find your brilliant video. A lot of great ideas. That little thing to keep the wire on the front pulley wheel is really clever - i will implement that in my build tomorrow :)
Cheers mate . I watched this vid sometime back and made a crane and winch similar off of back corner of my Nissan trayback ute . I made about 16 "'lugs'..that is a piece of angle iron about 1.5 inches long drilled with a D shackle in it and a hole in both side .I bring a Makita tek screw gun and screws and screw the angle onto wood round ,lift into truck and leave the angle on the round to lift it up onto the logsplitter . The wood here in Australia is hard and very heavy and works great . Saves back now for 2 years . can fit 24 heavy circles on truck till full and up to weight .. Well done JR
I hope to start welding on a hydraulic dump trailer soon. A bad tornado came thru and killed several in the next county over. The sheriff's department called me and asked me to come over and work on saws to help the volunteers saw out the mess. Anyway that has slowed me up getting started on the trailer. I plan to put a Predator 212cc powered homemade winch with a capstan pulley on one side as well. Those rope capstans are super fast for this kinda work , and faster to get back to grab a new piece of wood , because you can simply strip the spool and run with the rope.
Might I suggest a trailer tongue jack just under the mast? Crank it down and transfer the weight directly to the ground. Cheap but effective. Nice project. Take care. Doug

Nice,You can use squeeze tong easy pick up and release logs
Your Fabrication of the Trailer is great. Some day that picaroon will get you!

Nice creation man! Hopefully can rig something like this to my dump trailer!
nice job , works very nice, sure saves on the back !!
Nicely Done, thanks!
Great ideas, and I also use quick disconnects on my winches . I use a lag bolt and chain for mine. Whatever works.
That is a very nice setup. I’m honking a pair of tongs might be what you need to make that complete
Good job, basic but very effective.
Looking good that
Brilliant!
Absolutely brilliant. I never would have thought of using a picaroon for attaching a winch to.
