Longer forks make it harder to load logs on logs to higher levels on trucks, trailers, etcs.

I have the Titan Economy 42" forks.

One thing sure about pallet forks, if you bought 36' then you wish you had bought 42', but if you bought 42' then you wish that you had bought 36'.

I've done some stuff like that with my RCR1860 on my L2501. They will lean quite a ways getting your outside wheels right down into the ditch bottom. It gets scary as heck! But the cutter is very heavy down low and you keep the bucket way down low. The hard part is the back slope because...

I wish that we had a market like that!

Some of the tree crowns are 10-25 feet in diameter. Imagine that lying on its side in the forest! No one is going to cut up all those limbs to get a piddly amount of small pieces of wood.

We want all that fuel out of the forest! Most of the stuff I'm cutting is just to get rid of the fuel and burn it safely in big piles in the winter. The firewood is just a side benefit.

It's an old Texas celebration and the word and pronunciation came from - well, you know what group of people. Thats the best they could come up with - gnome sayinn?

Forget the clamp-on forks! My neighbor bought a pair and shortly broke one of them, and since they don't sell one at a time anymore, he had to buy yet another pair. Now he's spent enough for a real set of SSQA forks but doesn't have them. Plus the clamp-on puts the load way out in front and...

I don't want to leave all those branches and tops out in the woods. I pile them all up in big piles and burn then in the winter. Besides I can't run a saw anymore anyway after forty years loggging. Cancer and heart failure. I have to beg and trade for that stuff.

I am continually trying to think of ways to update my process and make it easier and faster. I had been limbing and bucking the firewood trees down next to the burn pile and hand loading the wood into the pickup and hauling it to the house yard for splitting. (but I can't do the physical work...

That's exactly how my kit from TractorInnovations is set up. It re-uses an existing factory hose and adds an extension, and adds a new hose for the new PB hose from the loader valve. There's neat clamp-on mounting kit with a lot of room for variation, plus the short hoses and break-away...

Sounds like our stupid damn county.

My recollection is that the OEM single rear remote has a separate tank return directly into the rear differential directly through the case where it mounts. There's a plate that comes off and the valve body mounts there. (but someone will come along and tell me that I'm wrong...)

My dealer did all this for free under warranty. He came and hauled it to the shop and brought it home again, about 70 miles each way. I don't know about "quick and easy" but he said they had to pull off a lot of stuff including the fuel tank. And they did it all so I won't have them fussing...

I started out in the sawmill in 1976, bucking up long logs into saw logs as part of my job. I don't think I was required to wear all that safety stuff until about 1990 when contract cutting for bigger outfits. I had acquired a hard hat and some ear plugs on my own along the way, Those old...

In forty plus yeas I never hurt myself with a chainsaw, except one time the long bottom tooth of the bucking teeth poked me in the knee and it swelled up pretty bad for a couple of days. I had been walking a 3-4' alpine fir with about 10,000 limbs and slipped. I had to start wearing chaps when...

No, those start out about eight grand! This one doesn't have a centering spring, either. But I rigged up a couple of bungee cords and routed the hoses so the shortest path is centered and the hose have to be stretched/pulled to swing left and right. It was a bit frustrating the first couple...

Yes, it was the cheapest one out there.
