Kubota's new tractor mounted scaffolding

patrick_g · 04-12-2008, 11:07 AM

This is to introduce everyone to Kubota's new FEL mounted scaffolding with the easy bungee attachment. It is being demonstrated here down south of me in Durant (pronounced DOO-Rant), Oklahoma by a graduate, magnum cum naseum, of Durant HS. The driver, not in picture, is the lad's dad and technical advisor.

Details for advance nomination for a Darwin award will be provided under separate cover.

Those guys deserve the King Jerk award.

That may be a bit harsh or inconsiderate given the numbers of folks on this site who are really into standing in and working from their FEL. The hydraulic lines PROBABLY won't fail while he is up the scaffold and the driver surely will not let his attention wander.

Note: there is no one standing under the bucket!

Those boys have no idea how dangerous that is !
They have NO SUNSCREEN ON !

Not even a hat to dampen the fall!

Darn! Should have bought a Kubota, those new fangled man lifts would be a lot cheaper than renting.

Add a chainsaw, they could go into the tree trimming business!

"Worlds Most Amazing Videos"... Looks like the beginning of a new season. I was tired of watching the reruns anyway.
