As I needed a machine for work on our homestead and to increase production of the small firewood business my wife is starting. After much searching , I found this machine. I'm Super excited !!
Thank you. There are SOOOOO many projects I've needed/wanted to do on the homestead. Plus Lots of snow removal in the winters. And it has become obvious that working alone . With a 4 wheeler and trailer or snow machine and sled . I'm only good for a cord and a half in 1 day Maximum. Even with the tops decks I buy , I max out at 2 cord per day or less for a few days a week. Being in my mid 60s isn't the same as 50s , 40s , or 30s . I can't just bore a big days work out repeatedly like I could 20 years ago. The nice thing about this size compact track loader. It is easy to mobe with my pickup and trailer. And at 2 ton breakout . And 1 tone at full height. I can easily load my truck once I get the flatbed on it.
My skiddy is much older and smaller, but has become indispensable in my wood hoarding/tree removal activities! I'm jealous! Congrats on the new toy, you're gonna love it... Here's my lil Mustang 312 lifting up a 800lb stump..... Leveling out a root-infested backyard for a fella thats building a pole barn..... Moving logs around a few jobsites....
That machine looks really good for 2300+ hrs, you’re gonna wonder how you ever got along without one.
If I bought Ms. buZZsaw one of those she'd run me over and bury my corpse with it. Nice firewooding toy there. Wanna see lots of pics. Great to see you again CTF. Your absence has been noticed.
Truth be told. If I could have found one like yours, I would have gotten it !! The biggest detractor for an open cab for me is . Winter is long and hard here and it blows a lot. Snow removal is a bear in an open cab . Aka, I wimped out .
I've been using my dads Bobcat, which is about the same size as Scottys machine there...I have to kinda shimmy my butt down into it...there is no "extra" room!
