New RCW 3001 by Stein

Ive been away from home (Canada) and in the UK for a week just recently....actually demoing the product featured in the video at the APF show. Before I went I bought a video camera with the intention of making the introductory video that Im posting here tonight. I decided earlier that I cant really afford to keep the camera, what with everything else Ive paid out just recently....and today was the last day of the 14 day return policy that the store offers on all of its goods. So I had to make the video in haste earlier today, and get it back to he store before it closed. As a result the video is not very refined. There is no rehearsed script, and I speak slowly so to give me time to think where each sentence is leading. Anyway, I got the camera back to the store in time and got my refund:thumbup1:

 

Video is 15 mins. Thanks

Good to meet you at the apf, looking forward to when this is released in the UK as it's simplicity suits my style, only shame is its not an add on to the existing RC3001 but at the estimated price you gave it's not going to brake the bank to invest in a whole new unit and as you state a little more robust against misuse by inexperienced groundsman than a built in shipping winch.

The contrast between the usual PR department 'polished' sales pitch production and your raw / first cut presentation was rather refreshing and surprisingly captivating if you don't mind me saying!

 

I just bought the 3001 earlier this year - good kit, very happy with it. Mindful of that, and being a bit of a tight-wad, can I ask, did you look at options for incorporating the winch with the existing model, perhaps by means of an independent tree attachment system? I can see the benefit of utilising the single attachment via the bollard and cutting down 'clutter' rather than having a second attachment system for the winch, and (I'm guessing) alignment of working lines might be more challenging with a winch separate to the bollard? Be interested to hear your thoughts?

Thanks a lot. And again, thanks to those who stopped and said hello at the APF.

I didnt get to see much, if any of the show outside of our booth, but having read through silky Pauls thread and others, it sounded like a good turnout:thumbup1:

 

Rob, Im guessing about 700 at this stage, but I dont know for sure.

 

Kevin, My first thought was to retro fit the winch to the existing 3001, first via a bracket that fitted around the back where the rubber mounting are, then by a separate frame and strap. Neither turned out good sturdy enough and looked like a bodge. As it is in the video its solid, quick and easy, as the original 3001 shape accommodates the profile and orientation of the winch as you see it in the video. Seems logical to just to go with what works best.
