Did it survive? Can't tell from the picture.

Amazingly, yes. I haven't even watched a tenth of the footage yet.
Nate has it trimmed down and the YouTube video is still gonna be like 50 minutes long!

Rule #1 when using a grapple. Do not turn when raking backwards.

I find that the grapple trumps the front wheel steering whenever the grapple is engaged more than a few inches into the ground going forwards or backwards. I have certainly done that many times with no damage.

Yep, I can't turn when the Gorilla Grapple tines are in the ground.

I wonder why Ted won't let me test his grapples? :laughing:

Finally got around someplace to get a couple pics up.

My 54" single lid wicked grapple upon delivery:

Couple of the aftermath of getting stuck:

...and after getting things cleaned up:

Your pictures are too big, didn't load on my computer:

5344x3008 probably isn't the most web-friendly. I resized them to 1920x1080. Hopefully they'll work for you.

 

[Xfaxman]

Yep, thanks, they show up now. :thumbsup:

Interestingly enough they showed up fine on mine.

Did you see them before His post today?

Before he resized them, they would all slowly download for about a minute, almost complete, then change to the icon shown in my post above. I could right click the icon and open in a new tab, but it would get partway through, then quit.

Maybe it is just HughesNet.

They worked fine here as well. Hughesnet or any point between A and B may be at fault. Not all data follows the same paths, some paths are more littered or difficult to follow and stuff can get lost. They did need resized though, they were very large files...
