    Had an idea and my shift mechanic welded it up for us. Made a stand for the patio umbrella that we had. 0628231841.jpg

    We also took Blue Samson on it's 1st road trip. Co-worker had taken down 2 water oaks in his yard a few months ago. We bucked and split about 1/2 cord, worked about 2 hrs. 36200.jpeg
    He has a nice JD tractor and grapple 36199.jpeg
