Loading firewood is one of the things I'm especially interested in having an FEL for. Dad is probably going to start spending a lot more time at camp now that he's retired and I'll be processing wood for him. I'll probably also get a splitter to put on the 3pt. Actually with that I might split the wood right where I drop the tree... -Curt

Today at old okie acres I used it to load up a HUGE tree that blew down that I cut up. Later at home I used it to move 124 around. While the FEL wont lift the front of a 124 off the ground, it will lift it up enough then I can push it to where I want. I managed to screw up the already broken front bumper air dam a little more with the front bucket. So I am now thinking about buying some bucket forks which I could use to load engines that I am fixing to start moving, and when moving cars can get the forks up under front of the car and lift. I am looking at these clamp on type like this which are cheap: http://www.amazon.com/Pallet-bucket-loaders-tractors-steers/dp/B002ITHNWY/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1433555093&sr=8-4&keywords=bucket+forks But thinking I should pony up more money and get this setup, which the bucket detaches from the FEL and you attach this, looks like it would work a lot better http://www.amazon.com/Titan-Pallet-Attachment-Deere-Loaders/dp/B00A1D103W/ref=sr_1_13?ie=UTF8&qid=1433555181&sr=8-13&keywords=bucket+forks _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
