O.C.G.D. Thread, part two

[lumberjack]

Geez I thought that was a bin of sausages or something

Hahaha me too!

 

[Levi]

I like this thread but I gotta ask, what does ocgd mean?

 

[sotc]

Obsessive compulsive gear disorder. I think I asked that once upon a time too

 

[Levi]

Ahhh, thank you! I looked it up and found "gaming disorder" that didn't seem right though.

 

[sotc]

No but it's close

 

[Levi]

True!

 

[Burnham]

We tree folk all suffer from it, I think. Some worse than others .

 

[PCTREE]

I have it so bad I don't even post about it!

 

[pantheraba]

Until Paul got that MEK you were the uncontested winner...now...may be a toss up.

 

[treesmith]

WHAT?!? Paul got a MEK too???

 

[pantheraba]

MY bad...should say when Carl got the Mek...

 

[treesmith]

Whew! Thought somebody was giving them away and I missed out!

 

[pantheraba]

hahaha....roger that

 

[SeanKroll]

That's a wicked machine, Carl.

Picked up this today to go behind the Mek. Adding the trailer brake plumbing to the Mek over the weekend, hope to put it to work next week perhaps. I also have to add an engine/pump to the trailer to dump it and run the jack (previously powered by the towing vehicle, I don't want to risk contaminating the crane's system).


Dual 15klb axles.

 

[MasterBlaster]

I dunno...

It looks kinda small.

 

[lumberjack]

It's just the red wheels, I think!

 

[lumberjack]

The idea is the pieces the Mek cuts will go straight from the tree to the trailer, and on smaller jobs the G truck can stay at the shop.

 

[Merle Nelson]

Great trailer Carl.

 

[pantheraba]

This boy is NOT messing around....

 

[Burnham]

Got that right, Gary.

 

[PCTREE]

Now that's what I was talking about. Efficiency to the Nth degree. What trans is in the MEK?


Killing it man!!

Gives beating swords into pruning hooks a new dimension!

We will use the trailer behind the grapple truck from time to time also, like I mentioned in the other thread.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Slim Jim!!!

I need to will the TreeHouse to Carl for when I kick the bucket.

Can anyone suggest a better candidate?
