    Ain't gonna lie, I'm currently trying to decide whether to buy a set of those Artillian forks or put gutters on the house. That is a very-well engineered piece of kit.

    • @TonysCoolTools
      @TonysCoolTools  Місяць тому

      That’s a tough question. Gutters are extremely important because they can stop water damage from happening to your house foundation.
      That would be my first choice.
      However as I’ve stated the pallet forks stay on my tractor 85% of the time and I use them on a daily basis.

      Steve don’t get me wrong I love my Wicked 55 Everything Attachment pallet forks but wish I would have known about the Artillian system with the 2” receiver and chain slots.
      Definitely the way to go even if you don’t buy any other Artillian attachments.

    Very nice video and explanations. I have a BX with minimal lift capacity. I just traded down to LandPride 1242 forks, which are the best branded match. They are lift rated for 1200#, and are 42” long. They have the upper guard, and weigh 220#, which is the main feature.

    • @TonysCoolTools
      @TonysCoolTools  2 місяці тому +1

      Craig, looks like you did your homework. Most people just look for "Heavy Duty" which typically means 400-500 Lbs pallet forks. Though your BX is probably rated for 36" forks your smart in getting the 42". In my opinion they are more versatile.

  • @JeffGeorgalas
    @JeffGeorgalas 10 місяців тому +1

    A word of advice when buying pallet forks. I would (and did) buy pallet forks that far exceed the lifting capacity of whatever your FEL is on your tractor. My tractor's lift capacity is about 3,400lbs. So, I got a set of Erskine pallet forks rated to lift 5K. Because often times, when I'm moving something suspended by a strap or chain, I'm only using a single fork, not both, and if you lift something heavy with just a single fork, if your forks aren't rated for more than your tractor's lifting capacity, it's very easy to "tweak" that one fork.

    • @TonysCoolTools
      @TonysCoolTools  10 місяців тому +1

      Jeff I’ve never tried that, I always used both forks when lifting. I just move slightly off to the left or right of where the slot is to remove the pallet forks.
      That’s why I like the Artillian fork frame with chain slots.

      Tim, though there are slots or detents where the forks lock into I can slide both forks anywhere along the pallet frame with the exception of directly in the middle where a slot of about 6” is cut out so you can remove the forks if needed.

      The Artillian is more expensive then the Everthing Attachment by about $450-$500. But remember you’re getting the 2” receiver and chain slots on the Artillian and it’s a system if you plan on getting other attachments.

      The newer tractors primarily use two types of quick attach.
      1st is the skid steer quick attach which is the most popular.
      2nd is the John Deere quick attach which is exclusively for their tractor.
      There is a 3rd system which is a Euro Quick attach but it’s not that popular in the US.

      Stain, that’s a tough question for sure. Thought I don’t own any Husqvarna chain saws if I were to buy one it would be the 572 for sure. I’ve used my friends 572 and really enjoy cutting with it.
      With that being said I own a MS 460 and have been using it for years on big wood but the problem is it’s heavy. Last year I purchased the MS 462 and can’t believe how enjoyable it is to cut with. The saw I use most is the MS500 but after getting the MS 462 it’s a hard decision which is my favorite the 462 or 500? You can’t go wrong with buying the MS462.

      Tony the issue is you have a pin type loader arm. Companies. Make a conversion plate to change from a fixed loader bucket to a quick attach. They are about $800 to $1000 for the plate. Then you can use anyone’s attachment . Check out or call Everything Attachments and they can walk you through it.
      Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT

      Rikki what I found is most mid-size tractors don’t have the lift capacity for a 4000lb pallet system. Naturally what I look for is the lightest and strongest pallet fork system. I found the Ariillian pallet forks are rated at 3000lbs and only weigh 242 lbs which gives my tractor more lift capacity.
      I’ll have to check out the United Attachments line of products.
      Appreciate your info. 👍TCT
