I could bring my quick connect forks, if that would help in any way. Small quick connect.

 

[awol]

I'm bringin john Deere saws Alan!!
That'll make 3 total , so far...

Gathering of the Green? Sure would be great if the Deeres outnumbered the Stills!

I might be able to get a positrack with forks on it.

What to the forks fit?

Sara I would love to make the trip, but working in the cold is how I wound up with that bad foot and leg last winter. I had my hands and feet frost bit as a teenager and the older I get the less cold I can tolerate.

I understand. more incentive for me to get to the next one south! I'll survive... [emoji15]
*sigh*

Till next time!

The forks fit a small (bobcat?) quick connect. I don't have a bobcat, but I think it is the same. 45 HP tractor

I brought someone from WI for you to play with, but you wouldn't come........

The skid I might be able to get has forks. Might rent another machine, maybe a grapple.

THe forks might be faster than a grapple in this situation.

Sounds good. The positrack is a bigger machine so should work good. How many of you guys have experience on skid steers, log truck, and skidder?

I once changed the drive belt on a 853, does that count?

 

[Stihl Livin]

Skid steers are easy to run. I've spent enough time in one to be dangerous. As for the others I have no experience.

Yep, you are chief operator now.

I have enough experience on all to just be functional. I used to haul logs in a previous life part time. Spent enough time in a grapple skidder to appreciate my day job

I'll do whatever is needed, and if I don't even run a saw I won't be disappointed because this all is for good peoples!

 

[andydodgegeek]

If the weather is good and the roads are clear I could tow my 853 bobcat with my grapple down. I just won't tow it if the roads are bad. Otherwise me and Sarah will be there with saws and good work ethics.

We will know more in a week, might not be necessary. How far are you from Scott's?

Hope the roads are in good shape. Towed equipment can take a real beating from the thrown up sand and road salt. I like that companies make galvanized dump trailers for up north. I think they are cool. A towed log splitter could find a quick death from the northern roads.

Put me back on the list. I plan to bring two kinetic splitters and Bobcat Toolcat with rotating log grapple. I think I can get them all into the big grey trailer. Plan is to drive up in the morning. Family dinner on Friday night at my house so I must be there. Will only bring a saw if someone wants to try the big Husky. Most important is the Toolcat has heat. Also the toolcat does not have enough reach to load the log trailer. Great for staging and sorting logs.


This is the Toolcat!

You are the man. I know salt sucks bug time, trust me. For sure wash everything when you get home, rinse thoroughly and repeat.
