    Not on that jib, but I have an idea along those lines, minus the expensive metal. 😂 It's the best grapple truck I've had. 500hp, automated 12 speed transmission, Rotobec loader, around 65 yards, ~44k miles on it. One day I'd like to build my own truck like I did with the...

    @Nutball I could take most of those pieces at full reach over the side. The initial picks are over the blade where I'm quite stable. I'll potentially add ~1500lb of counterweight to the excavator, but so far it isn't a priority. The OEM additional counterweight is almost $6/lb, not doing...

    Check out the neighboring house on the left…. Affordability won on that job. 😂. There wasn’t much grass between the houses anyways. I don’t chip. Those three fit in the 30 yard rolloff, but usually we haul tree debris in the grapple truck.

    It can create a necked down spot in the trunk/causes more stress. Like this

    It does fine and was ~1/3 of the cost of a Hypertherm 85 with the hand and machine torch. If I was in to heavy production I’d be interested in a Hypertherm. Everlast consumables are very cheap compared to Sync cartridges, Hypertherm last longer.

    Nah the 45 is a Hypertherm, the 100 is an Everlast.

    Gouging with the 100 amp plasma is heckka fast compared to the 45 amp.

    It's my favorite CTL that I've owned by a decent margin. The first was a Mustang branded Tak, second was a Kubota SVL90-2.

    I started the day pushing a few loads of dirt out for my neighbor, apparently he spend an hour with a small tractor trying to spread the little bit that was done in the first picture. The top soil should have been cut out before dumping the dirt, but not my circus, not my monkeys. I was...

    This is what 4800lb of plastic bumpers looks like. This is the third time in 19 months I've hauled bumpers from this body shop.

    You got it backwards, a 7 pin sprocket pulls 7 drive links per engine revolution, an 8 pin pulls 8, or 14% faster chain speed. Sharpened the chain and knocked down three pines on this job. The 500i is still a ripper!

    Yeah, I cut my notch perpendicular to the lean of the tree, made the back cut level... oof but inconsequential. The 500 was ported by @huskihl , I’m liking it but I haven’t used it much yet. Throttle response is fantastic, plenty of torque to lean on. Was going to knock down some oak...

    He wrote it on a whim, turned out to be advantageous. I’m glad I didn’t have to climb that tree, I left 4-6’ stubs from the lift, then peeled the ivy back with the ex for trimming the stubs on the ground.

    The first two pictures are early April, before the ivy had leafed out. The ivy was ~12’ in diameter through the canopy, petering out ~10’ from the top.

    We took out a fat pine this week covered in poison ivy, very minimal reaction to the ivy.

    The two pictures are 19MB and 64 megapixels... my guess is the forum doesn’t like the 64MP, it did the same thing with my 24MP picture I posted earlier that was just over 1MB.

    You’d think 150 watts of power leaking through the comp release valve would be noticeable on the operator’s hand/the plastic.
