<p>[QUOTE="springfld.arsenal, post: 311587, member: 54"]So right now I’m thinking about how to get all the wood out of the trailer quickly and easily by myself so I can return the trailer before they charge me another $20. Was great having a helper and a tractor to load it but haven’t got a helper today. I’m going to wrap a heavy towing strap around the end of the wood bundle in “choker” pattern and attach the free end’s eye to the forklift forks and mast, set the truck parking brake, put a monster pallet between trailer tailgate and forklift, raise forks and pull with forklift in reverse. One-shot deal. If I have time I’ll set up video camera; if it goes well I’ll have an instructional video. If it goes way wrong I’ll still post the video on my you-tube channel (“cannonmn”), let them put advertising on it, and make a little more money.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
