How long did that pile take?

By grill guard I meant I bought one of those overpriced (IMO) aftermarket water jet cut shields that bolt to the factory guard. It’s only money. I’m also now shopping for a pto wood chipper. 😬

Ordered a et of LED lights/wiring and received my grill guard because I know without it I'd put a stick through my grill in less than 10 minutes of testing my grapple. Now that I have the guard I'm sure it will remain pristine. Still at 2.x hours on the tractor since my ground is still too wet...

Messicks has the Virnig 60" in stock and Homestead says their grapples are available in about 6 weeks. Just a few quality options for you if you are looking to purchase and actually have it any time soon. I'm sure there are others that will do the job as well.

I am 28 years younger than you……also too old to deal with a wheelbarrow.

What did I do to my Kubota today? Nothing. I stood next to it in the garage and looked at my muddy yard and said “too soon”. It was 70 and breezy so the ground is getting better but not quite there yet. 😡

I just got the 60” a few days ago. The 60” has gussets on the tines, the 55” doesn’t. The weight penalty is 45 pounds. I felt it was worth it for the stronger tines. I plan on using it heavily as a root rake in clay soil with lots of surface level tree roots so I figure the extra strength was...

Chicks dig scars.

I had to unload the grapple from my pickup somehow. Either the Kubota or my Raptor was getting muddy and I already had some lighter tracks from the tractor so the choice was made. Fortunately my wife doesn’t care. She knows sometimes it can’t be helped. I just try to keep what’s visible from...

😬

It’s a shame too…….it’s about 50 degrees which I find perfect for doing yard/tree clean up.

$2425 for the 60” from Messicks. $2100 for the 55”. Both in stock. I’m sure the 55” would be fine but I liked that the 60” has the tines gusseted. The weight penalty is worth it for me knowing my habit of letting stupidity and poor judgement get the best of me. I’ll give a review once it...

Finished up the couplers and tested out……success! Unfortunately I gotta wait for my property to dry out a bit before I can really put it to work.

I believe this Virnig grapple is sturdy enough. I know it’s not the crowd favorite but I have work to do and it got here in 5 days. 😬

Ha! I would have loved to get their grapple but pay 100% and get it in 7 months? Nope.

I have a ton of work to do in the woods so I have some concern but it’s just something I’ll have to get used to watching. I’m sure it’ll be fine.

Installed 90% of my 3rd function kit on my LX2610 today. I didn’t install the fittings at the implement end because I wanna make sure when my grapple gets here Tuesday that I have the right adapters and whatnot. I also have to grind a small notch in the right loader kickstand so it clears the...

Tornado damage was one of the main reasons I pulled the trigger on getting my LX2610 and Virnig grapple now instead of waiting. My ‘52 8n was a workhorse but there were simply some tasks it wasn’t capable of. Anyway…….I have about 100 downed trees to clean up. Unfortunately all but a handful...

Ordered a Virnig V30 60” grapple for my LX2610 today. Just gotta decide on which 3rd function kit now.

It’s a lanolin based spray on corrosion inhibitor. Like a waxy oil. It doesn’t wash off easily and will keep corrosion at bay. Not a big deal but I had some extra after doing my truck for the winter.
