The Best Thing To Move Logs With For Tractors or Loaders?..Frostbite Grapple on a Bobcat Skid Steer!

[@TheSagerider]

I have been eye ballin this grapple for some time and finally pulled the trigger on one which hopefully will arrive next Wednesday. :)

Great! I hope it works well for you! Ours does a great job-we are currently make some attachment points for it now to fit the 244J John Deere. the burnouts got here a few weeks ago, wrapped up the mounting for the forks last week- very excited for you! What are you mounting them to?

@@aroundtheshop9615 It will be going on my John Deere 318D wheel skid steer. I have a 1967 Ford 3000 diesel tractor that I have plans to use as a round lift for the splitter. I bought a three point hitch and will add on a 3x3 foot ~ flat surface for the rounds to set on. Back the tractor up into place and lift the rounds into place for the splitter. I just reach over the splitter and snag one with the pickaroon then pull it onto the splitter, real easy like. Getting too old to be picking up 20 x 15 inch fir log rounds and keeping my back happy. Really looking forward to getting it tomorrow. It may be delayed but gratification delayed can be even sweeter sometimes.

You can adjust the sensitivity DP1-DP3 by toggling the left joystick at startup 🚜🪵👍🏼🇱🇷

Really!!! Thanks for the tip!

nice grapple, thanks for posting, been thinking about getting the same one for one of my tractors,

[@aroundtheshop9615]

Thanks for checking it out! It does a great job. I really like the control it offers. -the logs don't wiggle around like they can on some other grapples. If you are passing through the WV area and want to try it out in person, you are more than welcome to stop by. I really enjoy your videos, I've been watching them for years! Keep up the great work!

You can feather that switch, I do it all the time on my 590 with a grapple, just push it slow.

10-4! Thanks for the tip!

Why did he park so far away from the stack of logs?

[@aroundtheshop9615]

It is a pretty tight parking lot, not exactly the best situation for log handling and storage.

[@TheSagerider]

I think I got it figured out. Different logs are going different places so he parked in the middle. Yes/no?

Just subscribed! Nice grapple, would work well on my T-650, great video🚜🪵👍🏼🇱🇷

[@aroundtheshop9615]

Thanks for the subscription! Yes, that size machine should pair up great with it!! I've been very impressed with the grapple so far.

[@treemands]

subscribed also...will that open far enough to pick up a 4' dia. log?...5' dia log? I own a tree service and have a 19' s650.

[@aroundtheshop9615]

Thanks for subscribing!! I'm not sure if it would handle a log of that size....I'll open it up and try it on some bigger stuff when the opportunity arises!! It would definitely be good to know the upper limit of the grapple!!
