Sept. 12, 2008 - Stacking Second Log

The graders weren't able to get to the property that week, apparently they were busy. So, before we could stack the next log, we had to shovel more dirt around the log to secure it in place. This is what I got to do the day I helped. The next day Jeff was able to pull the second log into place. Again, the pulling up was no problem, and this time the holes were drilled properly, but there was a complication with the chain hoist. The chain had gotten off track and stuck, so Jeff had to move a chain hoist from the other pole and run a new chain. It needs some pounding to get all the way down, we have since bought a new bigger sledgehammer for this. Next: Grading and stacking more logs.
