How's the arm doing mds?

Better a little bit each day. Still a little sore at the break when I do certain things. Cast comes off sept 9th. Can't ****ing wait!! Thanks for asking.

LD, truck still not done. Sounds like they ran into troubles adjusting the valves. That and the abs light is still on, so they have to figure that out too. Supposedly ready later this am. Sounds like they're gonna stick to estimate and eat a day plus labor.
 
Got my replacement chipper yesterday. Should be getting truck on Saturday.

Also picked up a cid grapple yesterday as my old one is beat.

What's so beat up on the old grapple that can't just be fixed easy?
 
Boy, I have to say, the MDS feels like telling a few people to go **** themselves today. Already told one, hair trigger waiting on the other two. Well aware of the fact that I'm hungover, but its not just that, some people are really begging for it!!! Grrr...

The pivot points aren't grease able and have ovaled out tremendously. Plus it isn't built heavy enough to withstand the power of my skid loader. For example the square tubes are only 1/8" wall. I have already ripped one of the grapples off the top tube while pulling a tree to the chipper.
