We had what is called a ' pineapple express' deluge today. A lot of rain in a short time and winds were high=storm work.
I get that storm work is good for a lot of you guy's, but it just sets me back.
It was a beautiful day,,,,

Going to our Christmas party this evening at https://www.pechanga.com/sections/dining/pages/greatoak.aspx
We are having another party for the crews next week. This one is for management. Glad I don't have to pay for the hotel room!

Went to the Toronto Richie Brothers auction last Monday and got a 2007 Bandit 150xp with a 80hp John Deere. It has 1469 hrs. Picked it up yesterday and brought it home.
Sweet machine, but man does it look big on the back of the 1 Ton.
Guess I have to get a bigger truck now
Sold the Vermeer 935 that I bought last summer on Thursday.
It was a beautiful week

That's a solid machine. Will last you a Long time with no problems. We have ran the 200 and 250xp till some were solid buckets of rust and they still would chip

Any inkling on how much?

Won the bidding with $13,000
The other two went for $19,000 each.
This one wouldn't start for inspection on the day of the auction. I checked their online report and it said it starts with a boost.
I put it on charge this morning for a few hours and it fired up with no problems. Warmed it up and spun up the disc. Runs smooth.
A local rental company is selling one with 2400hrs for $19,000

Damn that's what I want for my 2007 250xp 1500 hours and no one's jumped on it yet. I'm the original owner and slightly negotiable if you guys know anyone. New machine arrives in January. Don't wanna trade it if someone else can put it to use.

Yeah I want it. But I can't buy it.

 

[tree MDS]

Just teasing for old times, bud..

 

[gorman]

So how do you guys out there handle booming over wires? Crane operators in my state won't do it. Unless they own the tree company using the crane. My old operator wouldn't even boom over the service drop to the house.

 

[treecutterjr]

You want 13k? That sounds like a great deal

Yeah it does! Sounds a little too good to be true, actually.. but what does the MDS know..

Can't do 13k they are giving me more than that on trade.

Anyone is welcome to come check it out the politicians at the airport require 18" so I had to order a new machine to go behind our bucket 750hd. I went with that because it's still under 8k piunds.

Contract is awarded December 17 so I had to get one quick.

 

[mattfr12]

We have a 2400 morbark and 255 but the 255 is the 15" and morbark is to heavy for the bucket like 14k pounds.

Yeah, you'd be a moron to give that chipper away at 13k.. assuming its what you say it is. 18+ all day.
