This not a tractor attachment but very functional and cheap, it is about $20.00 worth of re-bar and two hours. No maintenance it痴 much safer than holding the small wood with your foot, really helpful for the firewood operations.

I made something similar out of old scrap 2X4's It had a bigger "V" at the top to hold a lot of the small stuff. I find it easier to burn the brush if it is cut up a little first, and it is sure easier on the back, cutting into firewood lengths while standing upright. Looks good in re-bar, but might be a little hard on the chain. I found I hit the wooden one quite often:)

Looks good so far. I would be happier if it had some diagonal pieces on the base. I think it has a possibility to lay down on you, if the log is pushed on end.

Id be inclined to find a way to peg it down too. I'd imagine as you pull the logs through the V, your rack would move a bit.
Nice job if you arent processing too much.

My method is a bit simpler. I just load the logs onto my 10X5 open backed trailer and back up to the pile. I generally cut the logs 10ft lengths. As I pull the logs out of the trailer 1 by 1, I chop them up into 12" pieces and they fall to the pile. They are just at the right height on the trailer for me to not have to bend my knees while cutting. Cuts out as much of the manual handling as possible. Now If I had a conveyor off the back of my trailer to move the logs to the high pile instead of having to throw the logs on the stack by hand, that would be an idea...
