ordered the 110

[Rmawhinney]

gamble is putting my 110 together for me. getting a 6' bush hog, 6' grapple bucket, skid plate, 48" rail pallet forks, and he is installing a "thumb" on the hoe for me. pretty excited! any comments on what i did get or suggestions on other things i might need.

Thanks

Congrats!! Ol' Nathan came thru for ya huh? You'll be amazed at what a hoss that 110 is!

You got the identical setup that I finally went with except the brush hog. I seriously discussed that option with Nathan and the possibility of a good lawn tractor - diesel 455. But, I didn't have the trailer capacity for either purchase.

Just bought a JD X300R mower, though. (Maybe my shares of Deere & Co. will stay strong in this economy...).

Post some pics, too. Lookin' forward to seeing your new machine.

ya he did i cant wait to get some seat time. im going to get it in a couple weeks they have some work to do and its busy around here right now. Im going to buy a trailer too. my 10000# 16' trailer is gonna get retired for the time being haha. Im gonna look at pricing down by him probably cheaper than here in maine so i hope to save a mpg or so on the way down. You guys on this board were such a big help i cant thank you all enough. Ill be sure to post pics for ya

oh ya Ak he told me that the grapple i got was the same he sold you. He thought you were getting along good with it. He is rigging up the thumb it will not be as convenient because the hoe didnt have the 7th option factory installed but he is confident they can make it happen. Ill just trust him on it.
Thanks again.

There must be alot of steel in Georgia.. 'cause that grapple is one stout hunk of iron!

Most trees up to 8" - I just dig up with that grapple; saves a whole lot on messin' with the chain saw.
