  1. Inrecently went from a woodsman to a bandit. Should of done it from the start. Quality build, chips like a monster, and e support is great.
  2. I had the tires and rims i saved from a tractor at the dump. I bought two lengths of aluminum, total probably spent around $200 us dollars. It looks big in the pics for some reason, but its the same measurements as a trolley, minus the tires being bigger. I might swap them out but for now its fine.
  3. I made one out of aluminum. Its great when we use it.
  4. Was just thinking the other day how reg hasnt had any new videos. Looking forward to more!
  5. Purchased and installed winch kit for chipper.
  6. It routes inside the helmet, comes with velcro sticky, but i replaced with strong double sided tape.
  7. Fyi if you buy the remote mic kit wi the senas you can mount it on the back. Very well balanced too, no drilling either.
  8. Nice ben. Had to be cake with the terex!
  9. Great pics, Reg. I really wonder what good a bucket truck is out that way. Curious about wood. What does Scotty Tree do with all the larger limb wood and trunk wood.
  10. Thats an awesome machine. Nothing like that here in the states. Looks like it can pull firewood from thinning operations very nicely.
  11. That's a nice unit, even in pink!
  12. I've got a new in box 200t in my closet. It's really going to take some doing to open it up, I don't think I ever can!
  13. I have not seen the 661 yet. Although that could be because I have not been in the saw shop in months.
  14. Haha, I can't ride it yet. We still have snow on the ground! Probably another month until the ground is fit for riding. Gives me time to do some upgrades, until then it looks lovely next to the TV!
  15. I grabbed a fresh one yesterday for this years season.
  16. The first ones were bad supposedly. I had one but fell off the back of the truck. I didn't mind it to be honest! I hear the new versions are great, that is coming from a guy who had the originals and hated them. They then got stolen and he replaced them and loves the new ones. I look forward to replacing my lost one, and I am almost tempted to buy a rear handle model.
  17. Wow, that's a beast! Never considered a Morbark. Not sure about them to be honest!
  18. I actually thinking I am going to go with a Bandit. After searching there are no dealers for Woodsman in CT anymore, closest in Maryland or Mass.! I really love the crotch crushing ability with my Woodsman. Small chipper but a beast with crushing out tops with absolutely no trimming. I cannot say enough about that. Bad point are on bigger wood, just can't handle it. It can chip a bigger piece, but the design of the discharge doesn't throw chips very far. Did those chips end up all in the back of the truck, or trailings on the ground? I feel like they need to work on that design. The only good thing about a Vermeer I've run is the ability to throw the chips, and the Bandit throws chips like a animal, yet needs a tad more trimming on tops.
  19. 200T and MS460. I have three 200t's, two in use, one new in a box. Three ms460's, a 361 and 660. 200t and 460s are the most used for sure. And can do little and big jobs.
  20. Wow, interesting. I'm thinking about the 1390HD. Here in the states, where I live, it's getting hard to get rid of softwood trees. Looking to turn them into wood chip instead!
  21. Any videos of those 990's chipping wood to the rated capacity?
  22. Those seem like nice machines. There is a US company considering importing them. They looks space like.
  23. I first bought a roll of Stihl, lasted a super long time. Last year I tried Oregon, could not compare to the Stihl for longevity. Next roll is Stihl, my dealer sells it to me for a smidge over his cost.
