Anyone have a EA wicked grapple 50 single lid"?

[Machinewars]

Looking for reviews on this grapple. Does anyone have this exact grapple and if so are you happy with it?

Does the grapple appear to handle loads like you expect or does it appears the grapple could bend or otherwise get damaged easily?

i have one and had the tractor on 3 wheels yanking out vines and such and it has not failed to do anything i have asked of it.
I moved a bunch of broken concrete slabs that were at the max for my tractor but the grapple shows no ill effects.
totaly satisfied with the purchace.
The only video i have is carrying a big stump taken from the drivers seat.

Thanks for sharing!
We'd love to see the pics/video of what you can accomplish with your set-up!

Where's all the other EA Single lid grapple owners??

Hey, me too on those pictures. I've been snooping around the web looking at grapples. I suspect they could be a huge asset in material handling.
Would sure appreciate some user experience posts or at least some direction as to where to find some all ready posted information.

If you haven't already watched it, here's a video of Ted using(and abusing at times) the single lid grapple on his little Bobcat tractor.

I have one, and I like it really well. It seems very durable. I have used it to pick up rocks over 1000 lbs. No bending or damage so far. I have picked up and clamped a lot of rocks in just an upper and lower tine without "springing" the grapple. everything lines up still, and all the tines close at once. I have used it to haul brush and logs away. So far so good. here is a little thread showing it on my Kioti. Also the EA folks are nice to deal with.
