Does it make the tea too?

Can't see that being cheap though

[hiluxstihl]

they have more features but dunno if there that good

Can't say for sure, but the crane makes me think it could be from the same factory as the timber dragon ones are/were.

 

Of the tiny trailers and cranes, the vahhva jussi do look to be really quite good.

 

What are you thinking of pulling it with?

[hiluxstihl]

the crane is distinctive! i havent seen the timber dragon with a real crane... the vahva jussi seems to be a good machine, i am going to see a 400 working tomorrow.. ive a 400 quad and an international the same as yours, thinking of upgrading the quad for a bigger one..

All those features look good, but given the nature of forestry work which is not gentile on machinery, there is alot to go wrong.

How do they compare price wise with Riko ?

Looks a nice bit of kit. Any idea who is singing the song in the first vid?

Behind a small conventional tractor (rather than a compact) the vahva jussi would be very very small - Looks about right behind a big quad though.

 

Saw one behind a 25hp (i think) 4wd Massey a few weeks ago and it still looked fairly small.

 

Compared one to our trailer the other day and while ours is still physically fairly small (approx 5ft wide), it's probably 2/3 times heavier than a vahva jussi and has a cross sectional load area of 2-3 times that of the vahva.

 

Ultimately only you will know what's going to suit you best, but from what I've seen, a trailer will either be of a size to be good behind a tractor or a big ATV, to find one to do both will be a bt of a compromise behind one or the other if that makes sense.

I want it, don't need it, but want it.
