I modified my Woodland Mills HM122 Bushlander XL to have a short log bunk. This lets me cut much shorter than normal logs.
The Bushlander XL trailer kit has you remove the rear bunk to swap in the hinge. I ordered an extra log holder which I placed in the existing mounting holes for it. I put the log holder and now extra bunk on the front of the mill. I drilled a few holes, used some bolts from the mill parts bag.
Easy modification, to take advantage of unusual pieces of firewood.

Cutting the last boards for the fence. It took about 4 or so hours of saw time to cut all the boards for the fence along the yard. I will need to cut a lot more boards to fence along the field.
Showing a jig I made to make hanging the fence by myself easier.

A new tool for me! A Harbor Freight Backhoe. I immediately added a thumb. This allows me to pick up things, like logs, which I can then put on the short bunks on my Woodland Mills HM122 Sawmill.

15 hours and the machine won't shift into reverse. Not sure why it suddenly stopped shifting.
I made some adjustments and got the shifting working again.
