I couldn’t find my old post about this so here’s another. I had showed pics of a gantry I was hoping to pick up. Finally got around to it today. It’s in a temporary position until I get to wiring it up and then it will turn 90 degrees and centered over the mill. That way 06A5274E-D8C4-44B2-8155-493C73B970C7.jpeg I can use it to turn logs on the mill as well as back a trailer under it to unload logs that are too heavy for the dingo.
 
More is better, right? You could take advantage of two axes by putting down some C channel for those wheels and control alignment with two loop cables synced on a common shaft or similar. Motor or winch etc drive to move the gantry. Too much time on my hands. :)
