Lots of wind here. Blew my neighbor's roof right off his house down the road. The roof and the tree next to it ripped the wires right off the poles. Wires were wipping on the poles. It was nasty. We were out of power all day. I've heard folks over in NY by Lake George are still out of power and don't expect it to be back until Thursday! Very violent storm indeed. It shreaded our kids heavy duty swing set and blew the windows right out of one of our barns....ripped the light weight shelve set off the inside of our garage and everything with it.

Hi NY-Yankees,

This is my design & homebrew2 all mix together. My brother in law (machinest)is selling these himself.
I was busy doing the Bro-Tek skid plates & now my logsplitter, so I've got him to build my thumb.
It's a good design, here a pic.
Bird.

Bird,

You should add your picture to the e-bay page. Hard to tell with the pictures listed how it will fit onto the hoe. Your picture is worth a 1000 words. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I would first like to say that Escavader has a great looking thumb & I love all of his posts. That last thing that I want to Hijack his tread. Sorry for stepping in... /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

For me, it will probably be another month before I put them on ebay. I like to test anythng I make, at least for a few weeks, before I send anything out. I must say, right now, I can see any problem with it. Price range should be very close to what on Ebay.

As far as the pic, I've sent him the photo, but he's not a computer guy, he could not open it...maybe next time is the charm /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
PS. Yankee , are u still comming up to PEI?

Again, Escavader..keep up the good work..& keep us posted..

Thanks from all of us at TBN..

Lots of wind here too. Luckily I did not loose power but lots of people did. Interesting stories of people trying to get home because so many trees were down. Gee, everytime I look at this post I want a back hoe. Maybe someday. /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif
