That's pretty interesting. It looks like they also have TBN member OldPath's detachable stake pockets.

Thanks for the link. I saw a truck like that, I think on a cable program and always wanted more detail on how it worked.

All fairly simple, yet effective when the guys know what they are doing.

Well, that is where the "guys knowing what they are doing" comes into play. Work safely, stay off of the sauce and the smoke, and you are likely to live and fight another day!.

Yeah, it's the golden rule.

The speed these things can throw logs up is not for the faint of heart.
