I know some people invest a ton of money in your equipment. I would like to see how everyones set up is.
 
Home-made removable wood chip box on a Ford 1-ton dump bed. Dual 60" underbody toolboxes - one for saws, other for rigging and climbing gear.

Space between the chip box and cab is for bobcat mt-50 mini skid with grapple that loads from either side using my dump trailer ramps.

Bandit 200+ chipper.

Total Investment including truck, chip box, and chipper: $15k.

Sorry, can't get the photos to load. Anyone help?:bowdown:

First, check to see what size each photo is by right clicking on it and looking at the properties. If it's bigger than around 350kb, you need to edit the photo and save it as a smaller image until it is smaller than 350kb.

Second, make sure the image is in an uploadable format such as bmp, jpeg or tiff.

If the problem isn't one of those two, I'm not sure what to tell you.
 
Arbor Pro, Thanks - I think I got it with your suggestions.

I find it much easier to use a photo hosting site instead of uploading pictures here.

Photobucket.com has free accounts and when you upload a picture, it automatically resizes it if it is too large.

Plus, then you can use the photos on other sites as well without having to upload them again.
 
Thanks GR8,

I finally got the photos to load, but I later deleted the post because I realized I was probably on the wrong forum. My photos were of an aluminum leafbox & dumper application for pickup trucks, not the real monters posted here.

We are all equipment junkies here no matter what the cost or size.

Post em up.
 
Oh, and I don't have a chipper yet but here's my chip box.

I've used it a couple of times with my partner's small vermeer.

It's a 6'x12' dump trailer and with the plywood it is 6' tall. I figure it will hold about 7,000 lbs of chips. (and still carry the skid when it's empty.)

Like the equip. especially the emergency responce nice thinking. The hook and lifts are great to work with.
 
ASD, if you don't mind me asking about those tarps that you are using on your chip truck. Do they hold up well and what kind of material is that? Where do u get it?

Thanks,
Craig

Im not ASD, but...
I have a mesh tarp like that for the top of my truck, it is available at the farm store and Harbor freight IIRC. I got mine at Tractor Supply, it was cheaper than most commercial places.

They are almost like a trampoline mat, really durable.
 
ASD that is some nice equipment is it yours or do you work for someone else?
