The Shed is 17 miles from the house. There are closer neighbors but I don’t have power to the propert. I can run 4 individual chargers ( I can understand this ) but I’m thinking there is a cleaner way than running all 4 lines out of the the shed to 4 different little panels. I’m not an...

What if I get a 1-200 watt panel, run it to a 100 watt controller, plug in a power strip, then, plug in 3-4 110 batteries maintainers? would they not suck juice as available and keep the fleet charged up? still working the best system. Help from manufacturers is non existen. I need to figure...

Thanks for the link. This looks like it make charge 3 batteries? Am I correct or is it one unit for each individual battey? I think my first choice is one panel, a control unit, then out to four batteries if I ca pull it off.

Tons of great feedback. Thanks to each of you who took the time to reply. I KNEW it would not be as easy as I had hoped. So it looks like I need a Maintainer / Controller vs a trickle charger. I'm not opposed to drilling a hole in the building but I thought it would be easier to just run...

Hi Folks, I have a shed without electrical power. I have 4, 12 volt batteries to maintain over the winter. Only the mower is a good candidate to be be brought in while the others need to stay put. I'm looking at these trickle charge kits from Amazon. They look reasonable but I thought I'd...

I'm going to seed 10 acres with a pollinator mix this winter. My plan is to burn and broadcast seed. I have both a L3130 for a tow or 3 point or an ATV for a tow or hitch mount. Cost of purchase and storage are factors ( don't think I'll use it much in the future ). Finally, I think it would...

Yesterday was my first time giving my 60" MTL a full workout. All I can say is " How did I go this long without having a grapple? ". I removed a bank of overgrown / misplaced trees. It was a mess. I went in with a chain saw, let the limbs / trees drop where they may and had grapple power to...

One of these is on my " to do " list.

How about a MTL? They have a 48, 54 & 60". All under 400 lbs and < $1300 delivered. Im very pleased with mine and in it was delivered in 1 week from the date of order, https://www.mtlattachments.com/attachments/mtl-48-skid-steer-root-grapple-bucket-attachment

Thanks Folks. I guess it's not rocket science. Build a shelf out of lumber or find some commercial shelving. The search begins.

I have a blade, a rotary mower, a bucket and a grapple. I'm running out of storage in my shed. I was thinking of building or buying some kind of a vertical storage system. The blade on the ground, next a shelf large enough for the bucket, then on top of that, a shelf for the grapple. I could...

Just to put a wrap on this job. After pondering a while, I decided to drill a hole in the cross beam line cover to attach the bracket up front. I put in a stout bolt and I believe its good for the long haul. I hooked up the lines and blamo! I have a functional grapple. My first job was to...

I ended up going with the below MTL 60". Not saying its better, just another option. They shipped same day, came in with no problems and it look to be a stout tool. Haven't even used it yet. https://www.mtlattachments.com/attachments/mtl-48-skid-steer-root-grapple-bucket-attachment

Thanks for all of the replies. My problem trees are mostly Honey Locust with a few Cedar, some kind of a Poplar and then a misc variety. I guess my thought is to clean up what I can and hire some heavier equipment to take out the big stuff. I have a toothed bucket and pretty serious grapple...

I hear you on the on and off. There a guy that sells them new for $950 locally.

Now that's another option. Good call.

I'm afraid it's more like 100 or more. Most are < 3" in soft black dirt.

Thanks for the advice. Yes, the plan is to burn them. I can't think of better way to eliminate them.

My little 31hp Kubota has a max lift capacity of 1560 lbs. I have a bunch trees to clear, ranging from 1-8” in an overgrown pasture. Now that I have a 3rd function in the front, would it be worth adding a tree puller designed for a skid steer. Is this tractor abuse or could I clean up most of...

That’s a great price. I started this post as a reference for others in the market. ( I did a lot of research before pulling the trigger ) Most grapples out there are $1800 and up. Plus, a big wait for delivery. This one seems like it will do what I need which is mostly brush management. My...
