Yes, you want to mount the winch on the turn table so it rotates with the boom. Then you can lift/ guide with the boom,just shackle a small block on and run your line through it. Instant light duty yarder for that log over the bank. Options, options, options. With a 4 cyl Perkins set up properly you should be able to run everything, including a splitter/ processor. Same idea I've been working on, but you'll get it done sooner. Better war chest. I realy like colaberation/sharing ideas, makes the mind work,and gets it away from all the trivial BS that clogs it up. Lets build! Jeff
