    Great thread fellas
    You are living the dream, out bush, couple of mates,sleeping rough, sounds like a scene from brokeback mountain. (TIC of course, with a smily face just to make sure)
    Or so I have heard as I have never seen the movie.

    Good work, thanks for sharing

    Had the same problem. Welded som brackets on a 44g drum and hung it on the back sideways. Big bung up to fill. Small bung down with tap to drain. Just lifts on and off (empty of course.)

    So if you have purchased the trees, have you got a buyer already for the timber?

    Will, the species in all the pics are either ironbark, Tallowood, and blackbut. Mainly the rails 5x2 and 6x2 where cut from blackbutt and the 6x4x2.1m posts where done using the ironbark or tallowood, pic 603 and 605 are blackbutt, 604 are tallowood and/or ironbark.

    Yeah I knew it was big when it started to tip me forward when it was only 12-18" off the ground, mind you tipping load on 763 is reported to be 1361kg, so its not too bad lmao
