Thanks for the help.... Grapple

Without you guys... this would not have happen... Thanks!!!

I'll do a complete writeup later but here are photos of the last two days of work... only a couple extra trips into town. :eek:

I hate photos of myself... but what the heck... this is the jacket that I donated $305 to the Audubon society for... Thanks tallyho8 :laughing:

I'm very happy with how it turned out and super suprise that there were no leaks. I like the location... I never like the rear location that people have used. I have front, mid. and rear hyraulics. With moving hoses, I can locate all the hose to the front, mid or rear of the tractor with not too much work.

It all started when I bought WestBrookLawn's Grapple... Thought about electric over hydraulic but I would not be any closer to having TnT... so I just decided 3 spools should do me...

This was the first load of Thorns for the fire pit!!!

Wow! That rollback angle is severe. Maybe you could use that position for grabbing monkeys out of trees.;) I think you did a great job on the valves and getting them mounted in your limited space. The jacket looks awesome on you too.:thumbsup: By all means, don't get it dirty.:laughing: You have every reason to be pleased. I use my grapple so much I couldn't imagine being without it.

Yea!!! I think it was less then 10 hours after getting the tractor that a log roll off the back and dent my hood :ashamed::eek:

EVEN my wife was happy about the grapple!!!! AFTER I showed her that it can pick up piles of thorny brush and drop it into the fire pit... with a scratch... (she just has not seen the thread of posting how much it costs :shocked:) thanks!!!
