ransomes crawler in steep woodland?


Recommended Posts

following on from my other posts. we have upgraded the quad with better tyres and possibly doubling them up.

 

the iron horse is out of the question.

 

i have found a few old posts about the ramsomes tracked crawler. has anybody seen one in a steep woodland?

 

along with a lewis winch, quad bike and trailer it could provide a relatively cheap way to extract timber from our woodland. and open up the possibility of further work in the woodland around us.

In case you're interested in a punt on old kit, in the classifieds of the current 'Tractor & Machinery' there's a Krabat tracked mini skidder with fixed winch, 60s Swedish machine, they crop up occasionally in Scotland (I think James Jones may have imported them).

 

Google not much help but there are a few snippets on Youtube (Krabat 232) and this old print ad :

 

KRABAT 232 SKIDDER BROCHURE bei eBay.de: Vintage Construction (endet 05.02.11 14:52:01 MEZ)

 

In Aberdeen IIRC. £1800. Dodgy diff but can't be that complicated....
