I recently purchased a Hudson bandsaw mill and of course the first question is how to transport logs to the mill. I was looking into buying forks as I have a quick attach bucket, but the costs even for aftermarket folks would be well over $1000 cdn by the time they got landed, probably closer to $2000. Way too much. Even those clip on forks would have been expensive. I designed a bolt on set of forks that attache to the side walls of the bucket as the smallest log I would transport would be 8 feet and the wider the spread of the forks the better for the longer stuff. Because its bolted to the wall and the top of the bracket is inside the bucket, no deflection. No problem lifting 3 or 4 12' longs. Take a look, well worth the investment if your in the market for moving some logs. Total cost $180 cdn. Helps to have a great welding shop nearby.
