Or do what I do and use an old utility trailer (mine is 4x8). If space allows, that can move a lot of firewood towed behind a tractor, and it worked great behind my old B2920 as well as my new L3200. I generally use that for bulk wood movement as long as there is room to maneuver. For refilling my stack on the front porch, I just use the front bucket and make 2-3 trips. I saw a real big boost in capacity when moving from a B2920 to the L3200 -- probably can carry 60-70% more wood per trip in the front bucket.

Wow, I didn't realize the L3200 bucket was that much bigger.

I have a small dump wagon which works well as long as I am in a place where I don't have to back up and the terrain isn't too rough (small tires). As I get paths created I can use it more.

Good plan McRebel having a place for the saw . I Have a small home made dump trailer as well that I use to get more wood in per trip.

Point well taken. The only reason I thought 4.5' long is so I would have the back 1.5' to toss the saw and gas/oil jugs in the back. Only the front 3' would be for stacking wood on.

I have this carry all I use on my forks and I can hauls my saws on it. It is built out of an old pallet and saw mill lumber. You might be able to store your saw a similar way.

Built this carry all to haul firewood and for utility work. Allows me room to pile the wood high
and close to the 3ph to maximize the lift capacity.

Both sides slide out so that I can use it as a flat bed, as well. Great for hauling long pallets,
landscape ties, long length lumber. etc..

Found it so handy that it stays on all of the time. Always space to load anything I need everytime
I get on the tractor. Kind of like having my truck and tractor combined.
Also provides excellent ballast for loader work.

Built a qa garden tool rack that mounts on either side to help keep the tools from cluttering
the usable space in the carry all. Added a rubber stall mat to keep things in place when the tractor is moving.

There is a trailer hitch receiver on the back for attaching a dump cart. So, between the loader, the carry all
and the 20cf dump cart I can haul a decent amount of firewood with a compact tractor

I like both of your designs. The chainsaw racks on one the tool holders on the other. Bull it how is your attached to the tractor? That would even work to haul trash cans on.
