What sold me on a mini skid was watching Schott Services KZbin videos, he is one of the best mini skid operators on KZbin. I bought The Vermeer 925 for my personal use around my property and I also do volunteer for disaster relief.

I’ve been looking really hard into the mini skids. I’m going to rent and demo a couple different ones to see which I like the best.

@@WilleysFirewood I really think if you’re using it for soley firewood it may be the best and most convenient loader to use. Good idea on renting first and figuring out which one you like best. Always cheaper to rent than make a mistake and buy the wrong tool. Thanks for watching!

Glad for ya Genin!! I figured this was coming 😉 I like that idea of being able to deliver totes of wood and place it where the customer wants. That’ll give you an advantage over some of your competition. I love tractors, but I find myself looking at these mini skid steers all the time😂😂 Enjoyed it!

Congrats! I gotta admit I may have wept a little during this video! I loved that Kioti tractor you had. I see the benefits of you having this Bobcat over your tractor though! Kind of the same reason I don’t own a tractor. My woodyard is small and there’s really not a lot that I could do with it other than lift logs and maybe push a little snow that doesn’t happen that often. I’m sure you’re gonna be happy with that machine. I wish you good luck with it, brother.👊🏻

@@outdoorsinthe608 I’m loving it so far! their online diagrams and parts schematics are great, can’t say that about all brands. But owning a used piece of equipment I find that to be very valuable in being able to find what you need and repair it without the help of a dealer.

Congratulations on the purchase of the new toy, I mean tool 😅. I believe that is an ideal woodyard machine. Bonus, when you load that, the Ultra, and the mini ex, you'll still have space on the trailer. Take care my friend.
