Boring!. These are the best kind of pictures to an old logger. I especially find interesting the way you are choosing to shorten the bar length on your Husky.

Is that a VW Transporter in the background? DOKA's are pretty sweet. Too bad VW doesnt sell them here anymore.

Nice pics, you haul a lot of wood, obviously. Like the mill too, in your flicker pics.
What are you doing to the winch tensioner? May I suggest removing the chain and soaking it for some time in kerosene or diesel fuel to clean up the links and to make them more flexible too...Then coat it with Fluid Film, and wipe off any excess so it doesn't get onto the brake/clutch assemblies.
I have an Igland 4001 and their GR-20 log grapple- they're both great!:cool2:
You guys know how to make some serious equipment!:thumbsup:

The tensioner is worn out, I have to weld some new steel to it.
The chain is new but last year i broke it when i winched, I think the chain are to loose.

The 4001 and 4201 are very nice winches, thinking on buying a used one.
