Log Lift Need

My son in New York State burns 10 cords of firewood annually.  

He splits each round using a tractor-mounted hydraulic splitter.  

Most of the wood comes from tree services that willingly drop it at his house rather than pay to have the logs landfilled.

The log lift idea was mine.  I was tired of lifting heavy rounds to the splitter.

Requirements

Attach to the existing splitter

Use existing 22 GPM, 2250 PSI hydraulic pump 

Handle up to 3 rounds…

Why Build a Rotisserie?

• Pig roasts are great fun.  
• Any day can become an EVENT with fire, a slow-cooking pig, many friends (often with excited children), and some beer.  
• The rotisserie is the centerpiece.  Simple ones can be rented for $400/weekend.  
• My son and his friends are experienced roasters.  They wanted a special rotisserie.

Pig Rotisserie Requirements

• Support a 150 lb pig with a 3x safety factor with a spit rotation of 2-3 RPM
• Fire tray should be 30 inches above…

Join us for an evening Stitch ‘n Bitch* as we make Pussyhats in “honor” of the newly inaugurated Rapist-in-Chief and his band of fellow sexual assaulters. You probably got rid of the one you made for the last iteration (whoever thought we would need them again!), or it is well worn and you’re due for a reboot. It is guaranteed to get plenty of wear over the next four years.

I have 20+ skeins of donated pink worsted weight…
