It probably would have worked better than the jigsaw, and I have them of course, but I was up ladder with the jigsaw in my hand, so I stayed with it.

Okay -- everything arrived and I promised some Pics. They are attached. I have been looking (and saving) to buy my tractor and related toys since 2002 -- so this is not quite as spoiled as it may seem, or so I tell my wife.
It took me 12 years to pull the trigger, but when I finally pulled it turns out that it was a machine gun on full auto and I bought everything.
Monday I took delivery of:
Yanmar Lx4900 (48.5 hp, turbo) Tractor Loader Backhoe
Woods 72 inch brush hog
Everything attachments 68 inch grapple
Everything Attachments 84" box blade
Everything Attachments Spreader
Frontier 72 inch York Rake (used)
Linetech Post Hole digger (used)
Bradco Pallet forks.
Top and Tilt still on order.
Fortunately, I have run out of things to buy. And I am quickly running out of things to do!
Last two days I bladed and then york raked my 800 foot gravel drive (winters pot holes finally gone), cleared growth from about 1000 foot of old logging road (grapple and brush hog); and cleared the weed and brush from the edges of about four acres of field. My first tractor and so far I love everything! Hope the weeds grow quick and the driveway ruts return promptly.
Thank you all for the help! Next I have to buy a building to keep all my toys --- I mean tools.

Say it ain't so! Howsabout a snow plow and/or 3pt snowblower?
I decided I really did not want a cab because most of my work is spring to fall, no snow plowing except the occasional blizzard when it is fun to just bundle up and go for it. But I have decided as soon as I trim a few more low limbs I want a canopy. All day in the sun is a bit much for my old skin. I saw one somewhere that had a down draft fan that pulls air through the top and forces it down and keeps the upcoming dust and bugs pretty much away from the driver. Now I can't find a place to buy one. I may have to use a spare radiator fan I have and do a home brew but first I have to get a canopy to work with.
Sure could use the backhoe, Yanmar has a really good one, I just couldn't make my self go batty enough to buy it.
