Here are some pictures of a small logging job we did recently.... (sorry only have pictures of the one machine had a T190 too yet with a winch)
this is the company that makes them, the owner of company was along to try out his attachments and he will make a slight change so it works better yet to heal them (i guess i needed to pile them up so i did it that way)I need one of them, I got a job to get the trees that fell on the dam off and out of the pond with out hurting the trees on the land behind the pond...
And they even make some with a built-on winch, those grapples really work great and are a lot of fun!!!I just need a way to drag them off of the dam, the people want them cut as little as possible, I dont have any other way to get them off of the pond, just not enough room to cut them and haul them out with a grapple...
did you have the winch made by martach on the t190? seems like a good idea.this is the company that makes them, the owner of company was along to try out his attachments and he will make a slight change so it works better yet to heal them (i guess i needed to pile them up so i did it that way)

Yes that's right, wish i had some pictures of that machine yet, i didn't take them myself, he likely figured he would take pictures of best machine:laugh::laugh::laugh: (no offense meant)did you have the winch made by martach on the t190? seems like a good idea.
The owner was very fussy sort of guy, he thought it would look like a battlefield after we were done, but he was very, very happy when we were done!!cool, nice machine, I have never seen a guy clean up his tracks after he is done harvesting
Nice job
hey!! :laugh: its goodYes that's right, wish i had some pictures of that machine yet, i didn't take them myself, he likely figured he would take pictures of best machine:laugh::laugh::laugh: (no offense meant)
Worked really good!! (i didn't operate it myself but watched a few times) he would winch them to trail (to save small trees) then i would drag them out to the landing (i had 2-speed so i did that) boy what fun!!! Martatch does makes those grapple's with a winch built onto them (all-in-one type of thing)hey!! :laugh: its good
What did you think about it? How did it do for dragging the wood out? I am thinking of maybe rigging something up like that for a tractor so I dont have to rent 2 pieces of equipment,
Is that upper BC?not to hijack but here is some b.c. interior logging clean up from this past summer, that I did.
Pic 1. there was a road that i rehabed through that block, you can olny tell were it was becuase of the flipped stumps. Then in the distance is the same block( it was a couplr hundred acres) And i had pilied all the slash piles.
Pic 2 Shows a decompacked landing, and two roads that where put to bed the day before. you will be hard pressed to find those roads.
Pic 3 shows a gmc work truck....i had to put that in there after someone had mentioned gm's are junk off road....we got have had ov 20 of them and never had problems.
Pic 4 Shows my site prep, clean up chariot... hyundai 210lc-3 high walker forestry excavator.
Pic 5 Shows another view of pic 2, you can see the two roads that were rehabbed and the block in which i was up to the counterwieght in mud"gardening" as we call it, cleaning up skidder and buncher ruts in the mud.
We are road side loggers meaning we use skidders, in which someone in this board says is not used anymore..?
I would put up my own thread of pics, but it would just get ridiculed by a board member, because of the stuff we do, and how he has said they dont do that in b.c., although we have been doing it longer that he has been alive, so i have not yet.
btw can anybody guess this member?
i might be able to supply a few pics yet for JohnnyCat's job he didYes that's right, wish i had some pictures of that machine yet, i didn't take them myself, he likely figured he would take pictures of best machine:laugh::laugh::laugh: (no offense meant)
