Grappling fun - A Picture Thread....

[4570Man]

Glad your loader works for you but unless you’ve got dump trucks to load it’s usefulness is pretty limited. A high percentage of people here only do property maintenance which covers a wide range of projects. What tool is more suitable for the task?

 

[4570Man]

How much loose dirt do you have to move? A high percentage of people here don’t need to move very much dirt. My tractor and little dump truck do just fine for my limited dirt moving. If you’re loading loose dirt a loader is the best tool for the job. It’s usefulness outside of that is virtually none. I’ve got a bigger dump truck I’m probably going to sell. The little one is far more useful.

This is a photo thread, for grapple pictures. Up until these recent posts, we've made it years now with very very little dickering back and forth. That light dickering has at least been complimented with photos for "proof".

This is a photo thread, for grapple pictures. Can we please get back on track? There are plenty of threads arguing anything you could possibly want, and if not, your free to create a new one.

Thank you.

Here's my "Before" picture... sometimes it isn't what you own, but what you have access to.

I can't talk for Andy, but when "I" was 14, my dad owned a drag line crane, a dozer and a dump truck, along with farm tractors... I bet you I already had more equipment running experience than MOST of the guys on this site do today, so I don't think "age" has anything to do with it.

BTW, I got my first off farm job working for another farmer when I was 11. Yes eleven, that would be "child abuse" today!

Age has something to do with how you act and how you treat others which is why I'm betting the troll has just hit puberty.

No ill will meant toward you Rob. :thumbsup:

Well stated Piston.

“Andy” is all hat and no cattle. He’s yet to post a picture of anything yet, continues to harass those of us who, not only post pictures but, do real work.

He’ll soon show up on the rotary cutter threads claiming his 12 HP Sears rider will out perform any 15’ Batwing cutter.

He’s a troll to be ignored! Let’s carry on!

Feeding the trolls is fun. Until his cattle show up I’ve got a Cat 988 loader and a Cat 777G to load with it.

It wasn't considered child abuse in MY case, because it was my uncle's farm [and roofing/siding business], and they treated me like another son- except for corporal punishment- my 'rents were the masters of that.]

Although to be fair, more than a few of the farm kids I know still have pretty stiff sets of chores that they're responsible for.
