Definitely mulberry
It seems like a cool idea. Does it account for the limb wood too?
Do you keep track of the hrs and amount you pay for help?
Wow it's strange how different things are in different areas. This stack was put here about 6 years ago. I thought it would be rotten but it's...
Wow that's interesting what happens in different areas. Here bugs don't bother hackberry at all, it does rot away if left on the ground. In this...
Does your mulberry pop like a machine gun too? Here when you open the stove, even hours after stoking the fire, mulberry will pop a spark out the...

Fantastic work!! :thumbs: How many years do you think you have there?
As someone who has bent up & mangled numerous grapples over the years I'd highly recommend this one. Best designed and built one IMHO. They have...
