Tree Puller

[Jag]

TraderMark, I took the picture you posted and a sketch down to the local fab shop and had a treepuller buildt. Cost $140 plus $5 for the pens. I had it built with dual holes at all the pick-up points, to fit both cat I and II lifts so my neighbor can use it on his big tractor.. It does great.. Will take a little getting use to. Worked it about 3 hours yesterday mostly scrub brush and a old plum thicket... Found that cider is the worst to do, oh they come right out of the ground but really hang in the teeth. Pulled a 5 inch elm with out a problem. Some of the other 4 inchers had to work a little.. Really like the attachment. Will get some use out of it... If I get a chance I will try to post a picture later.. Thanks...

Bill to give you an idea here is a link to the commerical version that hooks to the front bucket. The one that was built here was for the three point hitch and had about a third of the teeth. NICE

TraderMark, did you ever get the chance to try that on the T-Posts? If so, how did it work?
