yeah something like that but i had one of thoses cat 511 harvesters i think thats the number.
That looks good in a picture but how I know it really works ::) you'll just have to drop it off for a trial period and I'll tell you what I think ;)
Ha you can take my word for it that it works. And quite nicely i might say.
what does something like that cost?
If you have to ask.... Depending on the head and machine you can be into a half million before you know it.
and they don't work good on eastern red cedar :D :D
We cut cedar with them. Our only issues are getting into the low/wet ground and not rutting it.
Also see some at work in the Timber Harvesting and Equipment Thread.
