While doing a little firewood logging recently for a neighbor, we realized we would like TWO of our DAP hooks on the same swivel. Much easy to snag a second log as you go by without knocking the first one off while trying to hook the second one. Worked great.

A good up hill pull today with an Ash butt log. Just a short stretch out of a hole to a long skid trail to our landing.

Folks asked a lot of questions about our snow plow so here are a few photos with descriptions. As with most things I build for myself there are no plans per se. I just start cutting and welding. A neighbor gave me a back blade off their tractor and that is where I started. More details in the comments for each photo.

A brief video of our snow plow a couple days ago with about 8" of snow. I put a three horse evener on it the day before in anticipation of maybe 18". but we didn't get that much!

All my horse logging friends like to see pictures of big butts. I left Red Oak and Rock, and myself in the photo for the rest of us. Happy Holidays from everyone at Teamster School. Here is to a safe, fun, and productive 2026.

Hauling a few big ash logs to start the winter logging season. Nice work if you can get it!
