My most Cherished Attachment

You rent a "wife" for a lot less than renting a tractor.

Yeah.......but you can turn the tractor rental in....for a nominal rental fee!
You have to PAY BIG TIME to get rid of a wife!
I know,.... from personal experience.

I support a ten year, optional renewable lease plan.
With no balloon payment due at the end of any 10 year lease increment.

Re: What痴 your most used attachment

The logging winch.
Many uses in addition to winching in trees and logs and dragging them. I致e used it for getting rid of so many bushes around the house without having to drive on the lawn.
For a safety 菟lan B when felling trees to get them to fall in the right direction, or for pulling them over rootball and all.
Used it to get friend痴 Unimog truck out of a ditch.

I'm with you on your choice Coby, my winch is an amazing tool!!

BUT, to be honest I think it's tied with my pallet forks with matching grapple,

The forks/grapple are used more, but the skidding winch is a MUST HAVE!!

It was my Piranha Tooth Bar when I was doing a bunch of FEL work but now it is definitely my adjustable forks w/QA.

 

[czechsonofagun]

No FEL, the carryall is used the most.

Warning...Attachment joke, not related to tractors. I heard Lyle Lovett tell this, gotta love Lyle!

A drunk is stumbling around with his car keys in his hand. Cop says, what are you doing. Drunk says someone stole my car. Cop says, where was it? Drunk says, it was attached to this car key! Cop shakes his head and says mr, you better walk right on down to that police station just down the street, right now, you are in no condition to drive and, by the way....... zip up your fly.

Drunk looks down at his zipper and says.......they got my girl too.

Talk about picture perfect! The removed post is perfectly perpendicular

I would have had to hop on and off the machine a half dozen times to get a shot like that.

Nice work

It's hard for me to play favorites, but I do value my 72" Tine Bucket w/ ten 32" Spears. Uproots brush, moves logs and stones, can serve as a fork lift (with some tines removed).

The reason it is perpendicular is because the V417 has self leveling.

I clamped on down low, so it stayed perpendicular when I raised the boom:

What is your most used attachment

Not an attachment per se yet still the most used (as far as a 3ph goes) is hydraulic T&T...every time I make an adjustment or hook up an implement I thank myself for having it...especially when I don't have to get off the machine to make said adjustment...

Nb 707 did you get in trouble when you posted that beautiful photo? I was one of the lucky ones that seen it, you're a lucky guy.

No offense intended.

Okay. I just realized what I do. Our last 4 newer wheel loaders had auto -level but my muscle memory overrides my brain and I level manually. Force of habit after 60 years.

My most used FEL attachment is Wicked Root Grapple.

My most used 3pt attachment is my rotary mower.

Poor fella. I hope he does not own a wood chipper! :laughing:

I was going to reply to the "original" post but worried MY wife would see the post... Dog house is pretty cold these days....

Maybe he lost his internet privileges for a month?

{edit} For the "new" post... my finishing mower gets used the most but the grapple is the most rewarding (not to have to get off the tractor to pick something up).

Okay, I realize that some on the forum will think I'm crazy, but my most cherished attachment is a NH 451 Sickle Mower that I bought a couple years ago. I use it to keep the shoreline of my 6 acre lake clean ... prior to the 451 I was either weedeating around it or paying someone to do so. On the dam side of the lake, there's a 4' - 6' drop at anywhere from 45 to 75 degrees slope toward the water; other parts are less severe. But the 451 cuts the time from half a day to well under an hour.
My most oft used attachment is the FEL ... I seem to find some use for it every time I start the tractor.
