After a few hours of operation around the sawmill I'm really liking the way it works.  I should have had this years ago.  I may look at removing some weight.  A hundred lbs or so removed may get me back to what the forks can do.   I can always resort to hooking chains far back on the arms to deal with the really big boys.

NWP,

We sold the Flat Bottom Grapple to our SkidSteer Sales Man for $1400. 
He sold it the next day to someone else.

I guess the real looser on this Grapple was the company having the Auction "Rain or Shine" .  ;D
Linda and I custom saw NHLA Grade Lumber, do retail sales, and provide Kiln Services full time.

If it is as strong as you say then you should be able to bring the log even closer to the tractor than just strait down. Curl the grapple to where the the top clamps are facing down and it might pick it up.
Two LT70s, Nyle L200 kiln, 4 head Pinheiro planer, 30" double surface Cantek planer, Lucas dedicated slabber, Slabmizer, and enough rolling stock and chainsaws to keep it all running.
