    Chinese digger recommendations

    I did the same thing this weekend. I ordered a terror XVIII. A 2 ton excavator delivered to the house for 11200, you can’t beat it for the price.

    EA grapple not an option now what?

    All good choices. I also am looking at precision manufacturing and paramount fab. So many choices what a time to be a tractor owner.

    EA grapple not an option now what?

    Now that it looks like an EA wicked grapple doesn’t seem to be an option, what direction would someone go to for a new grapple for a compact tractor that’s strong and around 400 lbs or less? Homestead, MTL, or another option?

    Best steel for a grapple.

    Thanks for all the replies. I bought a cheap grapple when I got my tractor and I have bent it up pretty good. Can still use it but I don’t have a huge tractor a Branson 3515 h but I think my grapple is more suited for a sub compact. I like the clamshell style. I was thinking of a replacement...

    Best steel for a grapple.

    I am looking for a new grapple. The one I first got for my Branson 3515h did not hold up. It is bent up from the soft steel used in it. I was looking at EAs wicked 55 but since that company is in limbo right now I have been looking at alternatives. EA uses ar400 I believe but I found a nice...

    K&R equipment excavators

    Does anyone have experience with K&R equipment mini excavators? I have been very interested in their products. Seems like you can get a decent supported mini ex for not much more than a backhoe tractor attachment.

    Looking to buy my first tractor

    I bought a Branson 3515h last year now it’s the tym 3515h. I live in the same area as you , with 25 acres. I got mine at BigTex Tractors in caddo mills and had it delivered. I think a 2515h would fit in your budget. It one of the biggest framed 25 hp tractor out there and about 2/3 the price of...

    Disking up an old field

    I had a field that was really rough due to wild hog damage. When I finally got my tractor one of the first things I did was use a tiller to level them out. Worked really well. It’s about 5 acres. I have a 35 hp tractor with a 5 foot roto tiller. Now when I get ruts I just use the box blade...

    Good sturdy flail mower

    I am in north east Texas on 25 acres of mostly wooded property. I have a Branson 3515h that I love. I have a rotary cutter which is ok in the heavy brush and saplings but I’m thinking a flail mower would be more suited for making and maintaining trails and keeping the blackberry and small trees...
