Airbiscuit, you leave me faced with quite a conundrum...what should I choose, your fork attachment or the attractive field hand lol! I guess my wife would make that choice for me.

Man-O-Man I bet she's built like a half-back. Wouldn't want to mess with her.

Holy crap... did y'all watch the whole video? And why is the lazy arse guy up on top of the truck? Can't say that wouldn't be me though. What did it for me was the bare feet! :licking: I hope I don't dream out loud tonight! :laughing:

I've clamped on 4 forks on the bucket o my M4700 (6 feet wide) and then after piling up the brush fastened a chain on a tossed it over. But I found for my use one pair of forks did well.

I just use my pallet forks, 38 inches wide and 42 inches long. I find that an 8 foot wide bush pile about 3 foot high is about all I want for passing through gates and around trees. My wife and I pick up sticks and branches and hand pile them on the forks. We make large piles sitting on a couple of logs. We pick up or roll larger pieces on to the forks. We also move the large piles to the fire site. I do loose a few pieces moving but not many. I keep thinking of adding a grapple to the forks to help keep the pile on.

I got this used JD bale grapple designed to go on a bucket and mounted it on a fork carrier, mostly for handling hand bombed branches.

It has proved itself, many times, not loosing a stick on the way to the brush pile and being able to repeatedly compact the load.

As for the girl. Does she do snow? I watched that, almost not believing what I was seeing. That level of effort applied to a very manual task here on planet earth, circa 2020!

I've seen this video with the chick a while ago actually. They're part of some back to nature community, they also have vids of of them cutting grass with a scythe.
