3-Pt. Boom Added To Sawmill

3-Pt Boom Added To Sawmill WOODLOT EQUIPMENT Saws “Sometimes when positioning logs on my sawmill I need a way to lift and orient the logs So I decided to adapt my 3-pt boom with a come-along to the frame of the mill ” says Mark Yax Solon Ohio “I made some brackets that hold the boom’s 7/8-in dia pins and these straddle the mill’s bunk which is made of 2 by 2 steel tubing Where the top link would normally connect I made a bracket using a chain hook that lets me easily adjust the lifting angle of the boom “I simply attach the come-along to the end of the boom which can easily be flipped over out of the way when not needed It comes off easily if needed back on my tractor ” Contact: FARM SHOW Followup Mark Yax Valmark Tool and Machine Solon Ohio 44139 valmarktool@aol com
