Swing Yarder!

I'd say a Tsy 70, I am not tall enough to be a tower, but I'd say I am capable of most the stuff the towers do, plus I am pretty versatile, and after alot of drinking have tipped over before in a heavy pull.

Wore out!

a yard?errrr....?that would be three feet...honestly the only yarder i ever worked was an old link belt with a screaming detroit,reminds me of my dirtbike knees,kinda wobbly but i keep the screaming part to myself whenever possible.

I would be a skaget sj7 or a washington 108- one big mofo.

 

[GASoline71]

A Skagit... I'm big... so I would have to follow the sawman's lead above... :agree2:

I would want to be "the beast"

Now why would you want to be one of them. Probably sitting in some bone yard afraid the next rig you saw was a scrapper there to end your days.

I'd rather be an old 11x14 willamete road donkey or some such thing. Then you'd have a pleasant retirement in some park, maybe with some kids climbing around on you playing logger.

Too true, but you just had to see that thing, it was huge and seriously impressive.

Ever see a 199 Skagit. I worked on one. Holds 10,000 feet of 1 inch haulback, 4,800 feet 1 1/4 skidding line and 6,000 feet of 1 1/2 skyline.

Nope, got any pictures? I have pictures of BU80, BU737, T100's (?) though from the yarder graveyards.
