6x6 Mini-Forwarder BUILD Ep.1 - Widening Steelies

NEW SERIES! Building a 6x6 mini-forwarder out of my homemade 4x4 timber trailer with hydraulic crane. In this video I'm widening an ordinary BMW 15" steel rim to fit a 31x15.5-15 industrial tire. I still need to do the other one so I can use a combination of two widened rims and two of these industrial tires on the front end of the forwarder. This forwarder will be articulated in the center, turning the forwarder will be done by hydraulics. Why build a forwarder? As a small forest owner I spend a lot of time maintaining the forest by hand (bush cutter, chainsaw etc). Using this forwarder also as a harvester in the future will reduce the work load tremendously. Not to mention maneuvering between the trees will get much easier with a purpose built vehicle. I still use my homemade 4x4 UTV but a combination of UTV and the timber trailer is a bit bulky and awkward in the tight corners and while reversing into tight spots. So there you go - a mini forwarder build.
