SCUT owners looking for PTO driven leaf vacs

[missourithunder]

I wish I could articulate my words as well as you do and yes, Harry realizes that there is a demand from both MMM and RFM owners which is why he's going to offer seven or eight different kinds of models for use with SCUT's

As far as the quick attach forks go, I too am sold on them and will buy them from BXpanded when I get the leaf vac. A major investment I know but it would pretty much round out all the attachments I have a use for.

Hi Misery T (went 2 school in St. Louis so can call it that)

About your pallet forks. Just remember your bucket can only lift about 700# knock off weight of forks and add the distance in front and think you will be down in 3-500 # pallet lift weight so wouldn't try on full pallet of bricks block shingles etc. Also probably
need a weight of some kind on rear.

Always need a counter balance when using a FEL.

I will be looking at what BXPANDED comes up with, and I might get one for next season. I like the concept. I burned my money for this season on an interim solution.

I bought Harry's front forks, and I like them quite a lot. Although I have a carry-all, which is handy in its own way, the forks are so much more versatile. (I bought the carry-all cheap to use with a custom made pallet that holds my PTO generator, else the forks would have been all I need.

You mention that you do not have the mid-mount mower, so you like the concept of it working without such a requirement. Harry no doubt knows that many of us DO have a MMM, and the idea of not using the 3 point hitch would be a bonus for us since the lift arms go up and down as we raise and lower our mowers. (I know there are ways around this, but it is far better not to have to confront it if not necessary.)

I look forward to seeing it!

So do I... But...

Is there a reason why this (obviously) creative entrepreneur's website is only ALLUDED to here on TBN?

Is he PNG (persona non grata) on these forums? What am I missing folks?

LBrown59,
I've got loaded tires and most certainly would always have my rear blade on when picking up something heavy with those FEL pallet forks in order to counter-balance.


orgt,
I couldn't tell you if Harry advertises elsewhere or not. In the grand scheme of things, I'm relatively new to this message board myself and until recently I had no idea there were thousands and thousands of fellow tractor owners out there coming on this site looking to share/give/receive advice on tractor issues. My recommendation would be to google BXpanded, get Harry's telephone number and ask him yourself.

No, he's not a "persona non grata" (unwelcome person) to TBN. He's posted on here many times on other issues and I suspect he'll come up on the net as he gets closer to the production of his leaf vac.

Just curious though, is there a reason your bio page is completely empty ???

Count me in for one of these units. Not cheap but not having to buy a MMM makes a big difference.

I hope I'm not a PNG! BXpanded is a TBN Sponsor!

Click the "DISCUSSIONS" tab at the top of this page and scroll down. You'll see our button right beside the "Kubota Owning and Operating" heading. Click the button and our website bxpanded.com opens.

I comment on lots of subjects but try not to "push" our products on the forums. It's much more satisfying when customers and users offer their experiences.

We're working on several projects and I usually try to reserve comments until the product is ready. MT calls for updates periodically so I'm sure he'll keep everyone updated on the progress.

FWIW I wasn't referring to Harry's advertising, but to why people do not simply list his website and URL here... We're in 2009 and this just baffles me. Of course one can always Google things I suppose. I found this:

BXpanded.com

Interesting site. Hard to see how he will attract non-Kub guys, especially the hard-core type. But then again, one could see the core value of EXPANSION as meaning it encompasses other brands, couldn't one?

As to my bio page being "empty", I never really thought about it. I suppose it has its pros and cons, like everything else in life.

orgt,
Just curious, what's your interest in a leaf vac. SCUT owner ???

Apologies, it looks like I totally missed your post.

I like the way you approach the forums. In the long run being a pushy somebody would probably be counterproductive anyway.

On another note, I've been incredibly busy but I took a quick peek at your site and I have a few suggestions. Feel free to PM me if you'd like.
