Fully loaded, what's the estimated gvw?

Your foam inserts, do you think tires would carry 60+lbs?
I was thinking along a similar line Joe, only I was thinking about making a cutter for the press. You could cut both circles at once that way I'm sure, I just didn't want to spend half a day making a tool.

The truck and trailer are 47lbs and I'm guessing the load is another 40-50lbs. Some of the logs weigh nearly nothing and a couple are probably 6-8lbs minimum(they haven't dried much in the BC liquid sunshine). When I finished changing the foams in the trailer I pushed down on it really hard and there wasn't much bulge in the tires but there is 8 of them so there's a lot of surface area. They are much stiffer than what I used in the Euc though.

When are you coming out here Joe?
