Sounds to me that a Brush Brute is what you are looking for. If you go back to page 4 of this group,you'll see a post titled:Bush Hog Mowers,by Jon T. on 03/27/01. About mid way through it I interjected the Brush Brute into the discussion. It is described there,with a link to a picture,and contact info for the manufacturer. I think this is what you need.

Hi ya
yep had a look at url and looked good would it block in thick scrub? just thinking once the teeth got full would it not just push scrub over with out pulling it out i like the look of this one

click on skid steer with the graple over top to hold sticks and make it better for stacking
but i'll keep the brush brute in mind

You just empty it when it fills up is all. I use mine in prickly ash,junipers,red cedar,poplar,and other scrub trees and brush.
