I demo'ed a 2900 once, HATED it. That machine tore up every yard I took it on, and I felt as though the wheeled machines did better in the rocks than that thing did.

I agree. A friend of mine ran into a major snag trying to get through rocky terrain. And for what a stumper does there is no need to turf up a lawn with the tracks.

I don't recall ever seeing anything like that other than some homebuilt contraptions that looked way to cumbersome for what we do. Lets get some close ups. And I am saving a slow dance for you at the Treeman's Xmas Ball.

I guess it is kinda old school. Nice to have a mobile winch that's that fast, and you can lock the tention.. its sort of like having 50 groundys on steroids sometimes.

You are making me so tired. What? Do I have to come up there, put my foot in yer ass, burn through yer stash and holler at you for a straight answer?

And you probably wouldn't be able to hack it up here... best stay home and tend to your chores (dishes, mopping floors, etc.). Just saying.

Not this time. The load was light after I stripped the limbs. The 3strand was the backup line which I installed from the advise of my friend Justin Case. If I listen to what my friend Justin Turkowski said I would have used a pipe bomb.:D

Lol I really appreciate my winch now :) I can't help but thinking of the time rolling all that out and back up hope you have a helper :monkey:

So.... had scheduled full day off grinding, done at 11! They must have put new teeth on the rental, cause that thing was a monster! Just walked thru it! SWEET.
Guys are asking what to do now, go eat, grab grease guns, a shop vac and windex.

I think I'm gonna order a wraptor and big shot today. Footlocking up these big assed oak trees just for a couple hangers isn't cutting it! You can all call me a hypocrite now, but I ain't stupid.. lol.

Geezer walker powers activate! :msp_laugh:
