These rugged beasts could roam remote forests and operate well after the competition was hemorrhaging hydraulic fluid.
Too bad -
I was hoping for a machine to help with Christmas decorating!
;-)
So what do you think is the frequency rate for the operator getting a face full of tree trunk?
I was hoping for one that takes it all down on new years day before the rose parade starts
Wheel-O-Death
Do they come with batteries?
Have you seen the forklift with a lawnmower attached that was used for hedge trimming? That was a good one.
It’s all fun and games until somebody loses a limb.
I’m thinking, “crowd control”. Wheel one of those babies out when a pack of yutes go wild or antifa decides to riot...
That would be great, get them for the National Guard!
I saw something like that once.
Thats kinda going out on a limb, but, I LIKE IT.
They mentioned the Ponsse Scorpion King on it. I didnt see that. This is the Scorpion King

And this is the one I often run-the John Deere 703 with a waratah 622 head.

The Ponsse is about 750 grand, the John Deere 703 was about 450 grand.
One is built in Scandinavia, and one is built in the USA, and it aint the Ponsse.
I finally got one that I leave up year round. Just remove the Christmas decorations and have a cute rustic tree in the corner of our dining room the rest of the year.
I think about decorating it for other holidays but thinking about it is as far as I ever get.
:-)
Groannn!
Amazing machines. Is most logging now done with equipment like that?
My sister sent me this the other day bunch of crazy machines I’d never seen before.

tree trimmers.
