Good morning folks,

I'm looking at adding a new Woodmizer EG200 edger to the lineup to aid in efficiency and production levels. I have not really considered other manufactures only because of the service I've received through WM, and so far I have been very impressed with quality. I'd welcome other suggestions for comparable edgers though. Read More

I delivered some parts to a garage and saw a brand new Wallerstein 3pt winch on back of a 55 hp tractor.
never been used at all.
He said he is looking forward to wearing the paint off it.
I think he said it was a 4000 model?
I am ready to get going!!!!

Does anyone have experience with the water absorbers that you plunk into the tank? I remember these things from the 70's and 80's when I was a young truck driver and our fuel was often contaminated with water(and dirt), but they seem to have mostly fallen off the map.

After looking for a long time and having quite a few potentials fall through I finally scored a mill of my own. Found a Thomas 6013 model. It's not all shiny but mechanically seems well cared for and in good condition.

Prior to getting it I had called Thomas just to see about parts availability when needed and any key points or weaknesses to look for. Super nice people to talk with and very knowledgeable. He told me anything you need for parts I've got sitting on my shelf right now. Was nice to hear these days.Read More
