I think oregon called it guardian? or vanguard? The bent over rakers are pretty awful, I don't bother using it for anything except "...there's metal in there..." situations.
Quick google search says it’s a guardian type. Thanks!

No need for a new top handle 355t will do anything a 201 will and I already have one.
I sent those storms a while ago, they should be over your way by 3-5 depending what they do.Well, June is starting out like May left off, severe t-storms tonight with heavy downpours. Everything is still a swamp. Can’t get to hardly any wood, especially the good oaks. @Logger nate, that winch I have is a 12,000 lb. Badlands and can be gotten at Harbor Freight for $299 on sale, not sure what the winch your looking at costs. The Badlands actually has good reviews.
Yeah been pretty crazy weather here too, thunder storms almost every afternoon. Most areas here have already reached there average rain fall for the year. And they had a small tornado south of us, extremely rare.Well, June is starting out like May left off, severe t-storms tonight with heavy downpours. Everything is still a swamp.

I want a remote skidding winch for the tractor, but as you said, the price sometimes is a rude awakening .Yeah been pretty crazy weather here too, thunder storms almost every afternoon.

Thanks, I was going to ask what brand winch you had. That is one I’m looking at. Like the idea of the rope capstan winch but this is much more doable price wise and sounds like it would work well. Also like the idea of the remote so you don’t have to stand right next to it, can be out where you can see what’s going on. The capstan is about $1500, without rope.
Not getting the remote option is my only regret about buying my winch all those years ago. Not that I could afford it at the time but if I now add up all the time and hassle it would have saved, it would have if not paid for itself by now then most certainly when the winch and remote is sold.I want a remote skidding winch for the tractor,.
There are several threads about Vanguard chain (same as pictured) here on A.S.Cut some stringy oak today and this Husqvarna “80”chain wasn’t cutting it.
Yup.Hard to beat Stihl RS or RSL right out of the box, and it holds an edge better than other chain, which, IMO, makes it worth the addl cost.
Same here brother!Second day of Juneuary and still burning here .
I've got a harness and spikes. Maybe if I start a Go Fund Me I could afford all the ropes and other things needed to climb. Or maybe just free climb it with the saw tied to my belt .Id take this opportunity to buy climbing gear and a new top handle saw[emoji16][emoji16][emoji16].
