    I'm a old man now but many years ago ran them in log yards, they were equipped with grapples for the logs they handled. I unloaded the rigs then ran all over the yard placing groups of the timber to species and quality. I imagine they would be quite the rocking horse to load dirt with. I sure do hope that all the different pieces are found for it and some of the little things can be tidied up. Great work so far. Such a wet year, to me anyway as I still have many inches of ice in the yard here in alaska

      Thanks for watching Morgan 🙂👍. Im hoping that once the blade is sorted it should be a bit more stable. Hope all is well in Alaska 🙂

      This machine did similar work to yours for years, it had a trailer on the back and moved incoming timber to the line and moved finished product.

    Great progress Dave. Im glad you are taking good care of this machine, otherwise i think it would just be hauled for scrap. Good job.

    I was worried for you about the hook lol. Sometimes beating on thing's with a🔨 is a good idea. Always fighting the weather I know that one well. Looking a lot better after the wash. Looking forward to seeing more of it.👍Happy Easter to you and your family.

    It's funny how a clean project makes it easier. I had an old rusted Jeep, it ran well but looked sad. One weekend I polished the aluminum rims....didn't make the Jeep look better just the rims! Lol
    Sometimes a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do.
    Happy Easter Dave

    Nice job Dave is it still running off the plastic fuel tank and will you be able to drive it home with those tyres on it,happy easter to you and your family.

    • @davesworkshop2714
      @davesworkshop2714  2 роки тому

      Michael, happy Easter! Hope all is well. Shes running off her own fuel tank, the plastic container up top is some spare hydraulic oil I left on there. The farm is very close, but to be safe I'll stick it on a low loader for the trip. Ill see if there are better replacements for the super singles about. Must sort the rams, steering and instrumentation I think before I move it.
