I like the look of that digger and grab grey git, how much does something like that lift?

 

Not sure exactly what it will lift but dragged pushed and wrestled that 12ft oak but onto the trailer fine, loaded some decent size pieces with it so far.

I've had the bracket made so it'll also fit a friends 8ton bobcat so if we're on a bigger job he can fetch that out and gain the benefits of more lift and longer reach, potentially got a big felling job coming up which it will be ideal for so looking forward to sharing that.

The wife wanted to carve some mushrooms up the yard today so I took up the Alaskan and milled a couple of bits. Sequoia, metasequoia and paulownia. I broke the redwood down for shelves and cut the other bits to see what they are like milled. ImageUploadedByArbtalk1445969467.517408.jpg.9ec8560b4579937d05d738282fadc414.jpg
