We now offer 3 new attachments for Junior.
Back in January I gave you a sneak peak, now they are available.
Here is the latest video to see them in action.

Those are clever. Did Mark think those up?
nope Kevin did
I don't think Mark has even seen them yet.

Great new attachments to make it more versatile. The only comment I would have, is that I would want to be able to store all the accessories on the arch. I'd put he extension handle along side the main tube. The rest I'd create mounting in the structure above the rear wheels.
What type of tires does the Logrite JR arch have? Tubeless, Tubes, or no flat(foam filled)?
tubeless
The problem with attaching all the attachment to the arch is that it adds expense, they get in the way and add weight to Junior, making junior harder to use.
I agree on the weight issue. One thing I love about mine is that I can just pick it up and carry it over a bunch of brush or something that would be tough to pull it through or over. I tend to leave my extension handle hanging from a limb somewhere. Maybe I should paint it a bright color.
I use junior as a tag axle removing logs from the forest behind my tractor. I bought the sling to use pulling out bunches of smaller trees/branches that the grapple had trouble grabbing. Happy to say it works great. Another winner for LogRite
Hello martid53, and Welcome to the forestry Forum. :)
How about going to the board that best describes your sawing/woodworking interest and start an introduction thread. ;D

I saw a local guy doing that. He had a Junior in the back of the log holding that end up, a nose cone on the front to keep it from digging into the dirt, and he used a winch line to pull the log out so that he didn't have to drive all over compacting the soil. It was pretty slick, but he has a lot less brush and stuff than I do. And the ground was really flat where he was working.

Like maybe a nice bright blue?
As much as I like the blue for that particular piece that gets thrown around so much the zinc plating is much more durable.

It gets used a fair amount. But I hang the extension handle up when I'm not using it. ;D
