That might be the most boring bobcat video I have ever seen.


Thanks for posting it!

If you find it bored its cause you are a boring person.

I think it's pretty much illegal to use the yellow and green colors without the packers logo stamped somewhere.

That's a heavy piece of wood, I found the video to be absolutely facinating!

 

[sharkfin12us]

Thanks for the positive comment.I like to watch any thing that might make i job faster,safer and neater.My wife shot that video and i told her i wished she stood more to front so you could see that log better and longer video.I never planned on putting it here just wanted to show people what that machine could do.

I'm sorry sharkfin, I couldn't resist. My good friends know me as someone you wouldn't want to be around.

That really was a huge piece of wood for that machine, and that part of the video was not lost on me.

Perhaps if you had attached roman candles or some other kind of fireworks display onto the bobcat.....


Seriously though, I meant no offense by saying the video was boring. I have A.D.D., and it affects the way that I view videos.

Quit with the apology.

You were just lookin' to "peck" a fight!

Running low on beer. That's funny.

There ain't nothin' wrong with my beer. The beer we got drink pretty good don't it?

Complicated?... Yes!

Boring?... not hardly.

 

[jim454]

I still think that this is the most creative way to move a log!

 

[No_Bivy]

......vid sucked

 

[jim454]

Well,

Your welcome then!

 

[No_Bivy]

not the black powder one.....the skid steer one.

I got shunned for trying to demo a tree with black powder this past year......

Does the A300 truly ride well on turf? I'd love to have one of those with a Beaver Squeezer

 

[jim454]

The all wheel steering is a big plus as well.

 

[sharkfin12us]

As far as turf.If the ground is dry and hard not a problem.If it is a little soft better to use ply wood and i have forks to move the plywood any way so its not a big deal.If the ground is saturated better make sure you use plywood.Im sure it would be great with a grapple i just dont have money for that yet.If i get a grapple i want the 72" ryan grapple.Ive had the machine for 2 years in febuary and im very happy with it.Also i snow plow with it does great job too.

Nice vid and a good sized log for that machine, though well within it's capacity I believe.

And as far a turf friendly, go with a tracked machine, or, specifically, a Takeuchi. These things are beasts when it comes to picking wood, moving dirt, whatever. It's like a mini tank, very little chance of getting this thing stuck, and it's turf friendly.
