Terex HR16

Anyone have any experience with one of these? I am going to look at one tomorrow and would love some feedback.

On an unrelated note, I was thinking about making a log splitter attachment to put on the end of whatever mini ex I end up with - has this been done successfully before? I figured I could pickup the rounds from one pile and split them on another and never get off the seat.

Well, the Terex was gone by the time I got there, but I ended up getting pretty much the same thing branded New Holland. Here is a pic of my son on it.

Nice! Get a thumb on that little guy and you'll double the versatility of it.

My friend owns a Terex 72-31B loader, which I have run many times. It is a well built, rugged machine, easy to get parts for.

This thing is amazing - the tank in the picture weighs about 1200 lbs I would guess. It can get a little tippy if I have the boom extended out, bit handled it well. I had welded a lift lug on the bucket, but it wouldn't lift high enough to get the base under the tank, so I built an attachment point. The picture will be posted in my thread that is titled properly. It really worked out.
