Got to test her out with some real Oak today. Can not believe how easy it is to get one or two out of a pile or make a pile exactly the way you want dropping and placing big and small logs with precision. I am a happy man!
I am going to have to measure and calculate the weight on some of these!

Got a bit heavy this week. Luckily I was on private roads close to home, should have made three loads but I loaded it out on two. I have no idea what I would do without my grapple. It would have taken at least a week to buck all this and load it in my dump trailer.

Josh's Wicked 60 and Mahindra 2538 have an unimaginable amount of work stacked up.
Our prayers are with these guys.
He shared this story in the EA Channel Group...
"Things have been crazy for my family, and my community lately. It all started when I pulled a five month stint in Alaska. I'm a boat captain and knowing my first son was on the way was all I needed to get me through it. I decided to pull the trigger on a Wicked 60. After arriving home I immediately received my grapple and ensured everything worked. The very next day hurricane Michael hit my home town of Panama City FL.. while the storm was still raging my friends and I pushed a tree off of my tractor and began checking on folks in the neighborhood. We worked day and night for 1.5 days just to clear the road enough to get my wife out. We had a handful of chain saws, a b series Kubota and my Mahindra 2538 with the Wicked Grapple.
I put that grapple through more he!! than Ted himself could! It took it like a champ. I wish I would've thought to take more pictures at the time. My main focus was helping the people of my home town. Many lives have been destroyed.
Thanks for building such an awesome piece of equipment. You have no idea how many lives that grapple helped in the last 12 days. He!! I even sold a couple of them for ya!
Trust in EA. They are good people and went out of their way to help me and mine. Travis even made himself available to me late at night when we were trying to locate more equipment. I値l never own another implement that isn稚 made by EA! I値l upload better pictures as I come across them."

Check out the same light pole in both pics. Total devastation.

Rye, nice setup. When you load bulk firewood loose like that, how do you quote price to the customers, e.g., by the trailer-load? By the cord after stacking and measuring for them?
