Never heard of their skidders, but if it's the same company they make a good buck saw.

Is that a sister to the Prentice machines? I don't know much about them either way.

The ctr and prentice skidder are basically a timberjack 460. The right to the 460 were sold to  blount when Deere bought out Timberjack.  Later Cat bought Blount. Clark/hurst transmission and axels . Fair machines but parts come through Cat. I find it much easier to provide part numbers to the parts guys who have no interest in or knowledge of this machine.
