Some people has got the best ideas on how to do something right, it's the ones telling the that posted the video or the critic telling that it's not right. But what the heck they never make a video showing how their pro arse would do it

One problem I see is that you get a trail of product instead of a pile. After you do the backup and dump, untie the restraint rope, and then pull forward just a little bit (don't let the sled fall off), then backup. This will start moving the sled towards vertical and thus making a pile instead of a trail.

looks like a good way to break something. but affective. if you were to get any stone under it when loading you would probably be shoveling it out

Couldn't you put higher sides and make it bigger!

Wow that is the cheapest, easiest way I have seen yet. Oh, the dump truck was invented for rich people who can't operate a screwdriver to save their life. That is why they usually hire others to operate it.
