I still think you need to manufacture a backhoe ripper tooth. I still see folks looking and with little success.

It could be something we explore in the future. This Hardox 450 would be the perfect material for it!

It has been working simply amazing on our Wicked Grapples!!

Interesting vid Ted!

Not a single person in the building, besides Nate, behind the camera, had any clue he was doing a vid. #TedStyle :laughing:

You assume correctly. Fixed. I was multitasking again!

I think Ted should have included a part of the video of his palatial office, for all of us to see where all the magic is created!

I find it interesting that there is no PPE worn at all. I take it NC industrial rules don't require safety glasses, hard hats, etc, like is required up this way. Especially in any shop with overhead cranes, hard hats are mandatory. OSHA requirement, I believe OSHA regs apply but again, not sure.

Nice shop, nice equipment too. Looks clean to me for a metal working shop.

Well they must not be having lost time accidents or his insurance company would be making requirements and OSHA would be investigating.
There is such a thing as too much PPE which causes problems.

Don't know, why I commented. Under Federal OSHA regs, anytime an overhead crane is in the bay over a worker(s), a hard hat must be worn. That is Federal. He stated they weren't in production anyway so that could be the key.

Lets let him comment shall we?

I'm just into showing off the attachments, and I sit in the office in front of the factory. Here's another good one, showing just how strong the Hardox AR450 steel wear plate is.

This is one of our Wicked Toothbars.

Ted is all about best safety practices.

My best friend needed an old shed torn down. I transported the tractor from the farm and put the Wicked 55" Root Grapple to work. The grapple saved our backs and the tractor/grapple combo made short work of the project. The grapple has been the most used implement that I have purchased and the Wicked has handled everything I have tossed at it.

Are these new ripper shanks going to be interchangeable with a current extreme box scrapper?

 

[Mikejeakins]

Good Question.

 

[EverythingAttachments]

They'll not be interchangeable without grinding/welding/retrofitting, but it is surely doable.

Awesome pics, man! Wicked 55 surely does maximize a compact tractor's ability.
Thanks for sharing!!

On September 19th will be one year from when I ordered my 55" Wicked Grapple. I will admit, when I was paying for it, I wasn't sure that the grapple would be worth the money.

One year later, I have tackled lots of projects. As you can see by my other post, I have used the grapple to move LOTS of brush and trees. In addition, I have used the grapple for 'non' listed uses. I have dug up, picked up, and transported old hay wagons and other implements. I have used it to load our trailer with scrape metal. The grapple has torn down 4 buildings (chicken coup, two hog houses, and a shed).

As you can see by the picture, I have worn the paint off the tines and parts of the grapple.


I have had zero issues with the grapple. The only thing I would change on the grapple, it would be to add same metal meshing/protection on the back of the grapple to protect from brush/debris making it towards the grill. I did add protection to my grill guard and would recommend if you are going to be using the grapple to add protection otherwise you will end up damaging your radiator.

Is the grapple costly? Yes. Is it worth the cost? In my case, absolutely and I wouldn't hesitate to purchase it again! The grapple has taken on every task I have thrown at it and the grapple is matched well with my L3560. The sales department was great when I placed the order and answering questions. Thankfully, I haven't had to find out about the service department because the grapple has been issue free.

All that to say, the 55" Wicked Grapple has been a great product and I look forward to many more years of use from it.

Anyone have a landscape rake? I’m thinking about adding wicked tooth bar and maybe the landscape rake.

I have rear blade, pallet forks and a BB.

Good stuff, man! Thanks so much for taking the time to provide feedback for others.

I see something you could add to give those lower tines extra protection. These plates would update it similar to our new lower laminated tine design. The set is $92 shipped.

The new lower tine design looks like this..

Just a thought. We're constantly tweaking and improving our products when we see an opportunity. You're welcome to call me if you'd like to get a set.

I will have to ask my nephew if he is willing to weld those on for me. He has the welding talent, not his uncle.
