It will turn into a flatbed of maybe a dump in a year or so. Had to get an ambulance to get the "good parts"

Your idea of "toys" is my idea of "tools."

Toys for me include the kayak, sled . . . and the ATV about half of the time (the other half it's being used as a tool to haul wood, plow snow, yard work, etc.)

Tools are toys
for big boys

That is a very nice setup.
 
I tried this unit out yesterday, after making all the mods, and I was very happy with its performance. I'm looking forward to getting the rest of those larger trees. Here is my wood-gettin' machines, smile.

You guys go through a great deal of trouble and expense to harvest big rounds. I simply don't. Anything bigger than 24" diameter, stays a tree. I'm not interested in that much heavy moving.

I am with you on that. Our property currently has 32 dead standing trees ranging from 4 inches to about 30. I gladly take the smaller trees but I do not want to waste the larger ones or give them away.
