    I split these bad boys with wedges and a sledge.

    Not because I wanted too. I couldn't get my saw started and my dad's broke.


    I almost died.

    @tcBob this us the 2nd time I've been tagged in a post and haven't had an alert. If you could look into that please. :notsure:

    I thought that rope would have broke or untied for sure.

    Saw a similar video a while back. They used a short recovery strap or tree saver, that wrapped around the wheel and had a sand bag (that was filled on site, carried empty normally)tied to one end to wedge under the tire

    I guess once it's wrapped around the tire, the rope is not really holding anything. It's just to give it a start. They left a lot of slack on the tow strap so it could wrap itself around the tire before pulling.

    Now oddly enough, this one worked. I'd have to dig for it. It happened a little while ago. I just wrote it off as a fluke.

    ^ that one worked too. :notsure:

    A small handful of select mods.
    I should have bought stock in wood clamps. :D

    So is everything glued together or do you also use finishing nails to hold the curved wood in place? It's gonna be awesome when it is finished.

    It's pretty much all glued , there is at most 10 small finishing pins in the whole thing

    That would suck

    Go

    Yep, 2 pods hooked to an 18 volt dewalt battery, plenty bright and they've run for quite a while without a recharge.

    I really want to build a rig to put a handle on the pods, and the battery underneath, really cheap/light spotlight with common batteries and the ability to swap out batteries quickly.
