It’s a big heavy machine. When it went in my field that’s dry, it sank 10” in the soil. They are using the same trails to drag out the trees and they are like 6” of powdered dirt. Think I’ll plant clover in these after they dress them with the bulldozer. Sandy soil? No, this is in Perry county, rocky ground. |

It is amazing to watch them for sure up north they may grab and cut 4 or 5 pine tress before they lay them down how they balance that I’ll never know some of the mules have duals with chains on them to get around the low areas Now those could be a blast to play with on the back 40 Then to watch them strip the limbs and cut to length and stack at the same time they do a 40 to 50 foot tree in seconds We had a similar attachment for our payloader when I worked at the nursery. You can cut one tree and go to the next easily because the grabber arms hold the cut tree. When you get to the next tree you release the arms and the uncut tree holds up the cut tree. You can do that till your arms can't hold anymore. Those guys up north are amazing to watch they cut at lightning speed they just seem to be one with the machine they are running from the cutter it’s like he lays the logs in perfect order for mule to drive over and clamp to the loading pad we’re they drop it right in front of the striper to be stacked on the trucks every swing move they do has no wasted motion |
