i figured you must be workin seeing as your frequency of postings had dropped dramatically.

check that top plate in the knuckle of your H for wear. if it wears to the point it breaks the upper boom and wood are swinging straight for you.

glad youre out there doin what you love!

Ha. Youre way ahead of me. I only have 2 tires that are the same on my skidder

skidder tires are expensive! im going to get a used one for the right front, judging by the looks of it the goodyear is original

Those pix are great. Nice c5 too, we're using an '80 c5. It's not mine though.
If you don't mind me saying, you're doing good for a guy of any age, and you've got a lot of years ahead. Keep it up. And post more of the cool pictures.

Glad your getting some decent money for your wood. Your a real go getter.

A first thinning was just made on part of my leased property. It's work for you guys, but it is very interesting for us non-loggers to watch. Thanks for taking time to post the pictures.
