    Big log.

    Check out the size of this log, I've lived in sawmill towns most of my life and rarely see them this big.

    Must have been a huge tree, thought the greenies put a stop to logging the old growth forests.



    would have needed three of the old single junker 18 wheelers to cart this lot

    Nice clear picture. If it's from a dashcam, which I suspect. What brand/type is it?

    If you get the chance go to the Merimbula mill.
    There is a log there that would be three times the diameter of those, and maybe from the ground to the top of the top log.
    They keep it there as a memento of the old days I guess.

    Regards Philip A

    I thought it was pretty obvious Paul! It's a chain driven Lacre and down your way, Beaudesert.

    HCVC Vintage Truck Forum - 1910 to 1915?? Lacre truck info wanted
