Nice looking front 3PH adapter. /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif
Have you tried any other attachments on it?

Nice job, David! I think you are likely to find lots of uses for that adapter. /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif With a little work, you could probably get a pulley mounted out front on the boompole and a boat winch mounted to your FEL upright and get into all kinds of "trouble" with that. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Thanks guys, after setting two more posts today, I'm really lovin it.

Being as Pele is female, that might just get me in trouble.

Ron - My only non PTO attachments are box blade and land rake. I would be hesitant to try the box blade - to much stress on loader arms, but I might try the land rake - possibly in reverse. What else have you done with yours?

Jim - Mind reader!!!! But unless I see a justifiable, immediate need for the pulley/cable/winch ( 12 vdc electric /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif), I'll have to wait until I have some play time - maybe next year.

I have used the Landscape Rake and Boom Pole so far. I was leveling out a area where I dug a stump out. Did not want to remove BH. Rake worked great.

You are correct. Silly to name that pole after the female volcano goddess. How about Priapus pole instead? /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Reminds me of a business card from the guys that ran a drawbridge: "We get it up every half hour". /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

Well, I guess it HAD to happen - my wife has nicknamed this contraption "the elelephant" /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Here is another task. We built a 10X20 floor to put in one of those canopy garages, so we can shuffle/reorganize some of our stored stuff, but keep it off the ground. Built the floor from some free pallets by screwing together with 2X4's on bottom. Then it had to be flipped, rightside up. The elephant got the call. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Yeah, I can see the similarity. (Note: photos from HNL zoo!)
