Which is too bad....PIG....you can make one of these, couple of Galvinized 50 gal water tanks with the screws welded on...and send it up here for a Carl test. I've got lots of snow.

and if the drums are big enough, it could support the machine across water! seems like alot of stress on a chain-drive system, you would think pulling those 2 sleds of logs if there wasnt drum slippage, the drive chains to the drums would break. wouldnt the safety standards of today have issues with those unshielded sprockets/chains?
