Re: Scott you REALLY NEED this
Could also be useful if you ever get a vehicle stuck in the mud....

Re: Scott you REALLY NEED this
IIRC, there are one or two of them at the chip mill just down the road from Scott.

Re: Scott you REALLY NEED this
Nice set of pliers on wheels 
As a kid my dad received LeTourneau mags/flyers and I would spend hours gawking at that awesome machinery

Re: Scott you REALLY NEED this
Jeff, I do believe that the stacker is bigger than anything I currently have... WHERE CAN I GET ONE???!!!
I wouldn't mind having a steady source of logs similar to those on the tractor trailers at the top of the page - must be at least 40" diameter... |

Re: Scott you REALLY NEED this
I don't know where you could get one - I just thought I would cause you to drool a little
Look at the second set of pics on the right hand side. It looks a lot like you Cat pan scraper, minus the pan - maybe they could fit one of those big set of forks and grapple to your scraper?

Re: Scott you REALLY NEED this
Jeff, re the log unloaders resembling scrpaers - that actually makes sense... LeTourneau was one of the major manufacturers of earth movers for many years - I think that they actually invented the concept that modern earth movers used.

Re: Scott you REALLY NEED this
For those who care, R.G. LeTourneau invented the individual electric suspension for each wheel that was the basis for each of the Earth mover vehicles. One of my good friends went to LeTourneau University and was required to read the "Earth Movers" book before he started school (the story of R.G. LeTourneau).
