One of the outfits around here bought a new 525 cable two years ago and seems pleased with it. Good pics Rob, I'll try and find some time to take some this week.

 

[StIhL MaGnUm]

Hey Ryan ,

The 525 is a nice machine also , I ran both at my last job but spent most of my time in the big Cat , one thing I dont like about either of them is the hydraulics , cant run the grapple and steer at the same time , has to be one function at a time , but other than that I think their a decent machine..
Hey get some pics of your job your doing : )

Oh yeah I almost forgot GOT WOOD !!

 

[Ryan Willock]

Hey Rob, we've got serious wood!!! We just moved on to a 50 acre select cut this week and it took me two days just to build the haul road and push the landing. The haul road is a half mile long into the woods and the back of the cut is 3/4's of a mile from the landing! Pretty steep ground in places on this tract, not much elevation but steep! Good thing I have a dozer to push the roads.

I've got wood and lots of it!

Ryan? Whats the dollar value of a load like that?

[Ryan Willock]

David, those are pallet logs so that load is worth about $500

You must be getting more for pallet than i am. That would be about 300.00
Here.

 

[Ryan Willock]

The guy I'm cutting for gets $41 per ton log run on this tract so to him its all the same. I personally get $42 per ton for poplar pallet logs and $32 for hardwood but allas this isn't my timber, oh well its a job.

 

[DDM]

There paying 160.00 per 1000' here for pallett
