The new (to me) Tree Spade, Plans are to rehab and paint it after the spring planting rush.

Andrew, I'd love to be able to put a headache rack on my bucket similar to the one on your tree spade truck. I'll definitely be talking to some local welders after I get the new truck and see what we can come up with.

 

[Jonseredbred]

Or maybe I will weld it for you on my vacation......................

Here's some of the Equipment we use.

The CAT bobcat and Vermeer stump grinder too.
Those pics seem to be more hidden right now.

How does that international chip truck drive when towing that large chipper.

Looks like the rear axle is set forward very far.

I'll put up another pic of my blue truck. With any luck and a tiny prayer I just might be driving another truck in a week or two.

The rear axle is way far up, per design.

This truck turns on a dime, very maneuveuarable (spelling).
It has no problem loaded with chips and chipper.

That log truck rips loaded also.
The new bucket truck is a dog though, gutless with terrible gearing.

Here's a couple of my saws.

Brian, you have quite the collection on gas cans.

 

[SkwerI]

Boat mix, saw mix, regular gas for the generator (left over from the hurricanes 3 years ago), etc. etc. I need to throw out about half of them. Ever since getting a 'no-spill' can last summer the rest of them are garbage anyway.

 

[arborworks1]

The no spill can is worth it then. Have not seen any locally yet.

Several copies but not the original.

 

[SkwerI]

Bailey's has 'em.

 

[TheTreeWiseMen]

My kit..

 

[arborworks1]

The mini and stumper are inside of the storage container?



Good looking stuff you have there.

 

[TheTreeWiseMen]

Yeah, shipping container that was in my yard when I moved in.

damn you got some serious air under them front tires! All i ever worry about leveling is the side to side of the truck, course its different when we only got 2 out riggers.

Is that truck supposed to be leveled cause its a material handler? Never flown anything but a "tree" boom, over center altec lr5 and a lr3
