Alright cool! I was talking with a buddy on the phone yesterday, and he told me to take some measurements, and long story short, he had me cut a pretty sizable chunk of pipe out, and now I am going to slide a bigger pipe over it, and it is going to make it so that the running gear can be 8 foot OR 10 foot center to center on the axles.
I wanted it short, because I would really like to be able to take it out into the woods on one of our skid roads, turn it around by hand, load it up with 10 foot logs, and pull it back out.
Plus, now I can extend it to 10 foot, and if I wanted to, I could buy another, longer pipe, and make it longer again if needed!
So next question is the deck, what did you use for stringers? Also, how did you attach the back board, looks like it has supports going out backwards? I was planning on having the deck end flush with the 4x6 or 8 underneath, and then drill out, and use lag bolts to secure a back board, flush to the back of the wagon, made out of 2x6. I would love mine to look just like yours, it is REALLY nice looking!
I also like that it is lower to the ground.. Thanks so much for the help, really appreciate it! Bryce

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
