    Forks are better for cutting while elevated. Easier to push into the wood pile too.

    As much as I’d like to play Kubota and cut all day, someone’s still gotta split and stack. Cut 2 logs, split 2 logs, stack 2 logs, repeat

    Nice tractor! I have a fork type grapple sort of like your on a 70hp JD when I’m picking logs off a triaxle piked load of firewood I have a hard time getting a few logs versus to many at once rolling onto the forks. I was considering a wicked or frostbite grapple. I’ll have to get a picture of my current set up & see what you fellas think. Enjoy that tractor!:)

    Nice. Heat is oppressive here. Can't imagine it's better down south?

    Difficult to pick up just one log. Very hard to see where the forks are

    I don’t know if it’s just me or not but I have such a hard time even when I’m trying to pickup a pallet. Can’t see the forks & I’m either ended the bottom board of the pallet or to high of angled wrong. It’s a pain. Anyone else experience this?
