A trailer with a cargo crane, it's a great idea.

What a great idea. What do you use to hook the hives to the crane?

Nice rig you have there can't beat the price. Always been my downfall a strong mind and a weak back. I'm gonna probably build pallets for mine eventually so i can just use the forks on the tractor. |

Would like to see more pictures maybe from different angles so I can get a better idea (i.e. copy) how you have it mounted, etc. |
