Someone might of said this already but a big towel to slow a hook flying at you on the rope 😎 ty for a great video. Gonna get one!
Really good point yo bring out when doing any winching to have a towel or blanket to absorb the recoil if rope or chain should snap. Thanks for watching and commenting,TCT
👍
Tim I’m glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Awesome design on the grapple Tony, you can get some serious work done with that!
Bill it definitely is a beast with great grabbing power. Thanks for watching and commenting, TCT
What diameter would you recommend for all around use?
Craig for me I primarily us the 3/8” rope ratch.👍TCT
Great demonstration. Thank you Sir.
Craig I’m glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Great video
Glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Why don't you drive it up the ramp😂
ha ha I never said I was the sharpest tool in the shed!😂 Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
That is very interesting and looks useful. Locust make great fence posts, also hedge apple, if you can find it. They do not rot.
James you're right both locust and hedge apple woods are awesome for fence posts. Thanks for watching and commenting. TCT
Those always look really dumb to me. Like you're wearing a hat 4 sizes too small or an import car with one of those big huge wings on the back in case they could actually go 200mph and needed downforce. To me the mechanism should be engineered to mount on the bottom of the ROPS. Then the ladder bars come out from the under side so the top could then be flush with the top of the ROPS bar and the sides would roll over the outside edges sort of concealing it and not be suspended way out above it. Just my .02 If I could just buy the canopy I probably would and just build my own mounting system.
I would give Artilian a call and see if they sell the canopy as a replacement part. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
G'day Tony, Have I seen you with that Chris in the wood yard dude ? I'd stay away from him he's trouble 😀. I've got a 10/30 Lucas Mill but the hour meters worn out 👍.
ha ha yes you’ve seen me with that shady character Chris and you’re right he is trouble. You’ve must have fun over the years operating a great piece of equipment like the Lucas mill. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Ahh yes the typical shy hydrostatic tractor, shying away from the camera. . Its gear drive cousin doesn't try and run and hide.
My first question would be the life expectancy of all those joints, and what they do to keep them lubricated?
In my research there is a stronger steel out there but its literally about 50% more $$$$ per pound.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
@@BGWenterprises The major moving areas have zerk fitting, only time will tell the life expectancy.👍TCT
Hi Tony, I've had two of them for years. When I was in my teens (aka my gear head years) we used to pull engines with a chain block and tripod. What you are using, we called a come-along. Shalom/gw. PS. Look for a future idea from me that I think will amaze you.
You are right, it’s a rope come along. And Shalom to you as well. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
@TonysCoolTools Thanks for the Shalom. Folks assume I am Jewish, but I'm not. However, my Lord was once a Jewish carpenter. I have closed with Shalom for decades. It literally asks God to bestow all imaginable peace, blessings, and prosperity upon the recipient. So again, Shalom! ;-))
@@googleboy7 I thought you were an old buddy of mine that always signed off with Shalom and his meaning was similar to yours. TCT
Super strength puller wencher tool ( rope )
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
You need to get an electric winch for your trailer. Even a small one would be enough for your 4 wheeler.
Ha ha I ha several winches, both battery powered and gas by The Portable Winch company. You should check those videos out. Thanks for your suggestion.👍TCT
I had 2 trees go down in a strong storm. I wanted to save both trees. As they are both mature shade trees. Removal would have been very expensive and replacement would take many years of growth time. On the biggest tree is used several cable winches to get the tree back up. I drove multiple t-posts into the ground for a base anchor. I attached heavy tow straps to the upper tree trunk. By cranking each of the winches gradually I was able to progressively raise the tree back in place. I used a total of 6 winches and 6 straps. The tree is currently supported with 2 straps to keep it as straight as possible to allow the roots to gain strength to hold the tree. Before winching up the trees I aggressively pruned and thinned the branches to lighten the upper weight. Both trees are doing well. Thank you!
Alex that amazing, it's the first time I've heard of a operation like that. It will be interesting to see if the roots grow deep enough to hold the tree up. Let myself and my viewers know how this turns out in the future. Thanks for sharing, watching and commenting, TCT
Really hope to hear that it's worked well, as time goes on! Yes, please keep us updated!
What about rope stretch?
Unlike climbing rope that has stretch the winch rope has very little stretch at all. Thanks for watching and commenting TCT
This is great, I just watched the original Larry Sanders show which featured the commercial for the garden weasel. Would this work for small pinecones?
I think it would be possible but here is one of my concerns. Pine cones are sometimes very sticky with tree sap and might coat the cage with the sap making it really hard to clean. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Nice demo. Thanks for emphasizing not using a cheater bar. Used a 2,000 lb come-along and 1/2" wire rope to to hold my jacked-up late 1800's 2-car garage while I was re-building a foundation wall. It also moved the garage wall one foot to align it over the newly constructed foundation.
Glad you enjoyed the video. It’s amazing what the come along can do! Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Thanks
Glad you enjoyed the video. Logrite definitely makes some great products. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
"Any half-inch rope" Nope. It's designed to be used with a specific type of rope.
You are correct it uses a 3 strand rope. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
I work in tree removal. I bought on of these to assist in pulling trees in the direction of fall. The problem with this tool it will loose grip on the rope if slack is interduced in the pull. This is why it sits in the back of my truck and the cable comealongs are used. OK for non critical pulls. Not for felling trees in residential areas.
Alex, thanks for sharing. I’ve not experienced the issue you are talking about yet. Typically all I’m expecting the Massdam puller is to apply tension in the direction I want it to go while I make face and back cuts. It may not woke in every application but it’s gotten me out of trouble a few times. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
"The problem with this tool it will loose grip on the rope if slack is interduced in the pull. " You're doing it wrong. I've used it on many trees and never had a problem. Not even close. A couple decades of hanging out on arborist forums, and never heard anyone complain about this. You're doing it wrong.
@@Migglesworth, How do you think he should do it correctly? You’re just trying to prove someone wrong (especially by saying it twice) and could possibly be helping someone.
Hi Tony . It’s definitely an interesting design . The AR 400 is a go 👍 . The claw fist grip yes 👍 Bucking logs down too the last 16” piece . No . The flow divider on tractor 👎 . They need too take a step back and rethink the design . Simplify it . When bucking logs you need more room from carriage and only 12” wide claw too clear for saw . There on the right track and could easily corner the market with changes like things you also mentioned . When go on google and punch in grapple it’s amazing how many grapple company’s and designs . One needs too choose there design carefully . Good review Tony as always 👍👍👍
Stephen, glad you enjoyed the video. You’re right, there are many options for grapples. The key is choosing the right one for the task you’ll mostly be using it for. No one grapple is perfect for every application. Thanks for watching and commenting.👍TCT
Tony, what a neat design 😉👍
Daniel, it really is an awesome grapple! Appreciate you watching and commenting 👍TCT
The grapple king!
Ha ha Mike, it looks you’re on your way as well. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Never choke with a strap when you can just as easily basket the same rig. You just halved the strength of the strap and likely will stress the choker as it will slide the strap on the other eye, eventually doing harm to the choker!
Thanks for the tip, I always learn from viewers. Appreciate you watching and commenting 👍TCT
That is an amazing grapple and looks like it is really put together well.
James it really is an awesome grapple. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Yes Tony that what call working Grapple good video ( Ty Ron
Ha ha Ron, it definitely can do a lot of work fast! Thanks for watching and commenting.TCT
Nice Grapple Tony 😀

hi there pretty neat , kind of like the back of a big trash truck , they double act . great show . best to all john
Thanks John, hopefully you’re drying out from all that wet weather you guys have had. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Looks like that one works nice for brush. I feel as a seperate unit would be more user-friendly
Totally agree Bert, a stand alone unit that you can be attached quickly would make it more convenient. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Hello Tony. Cool tool, almost as cool as a Halverson Grapple Saw😂 Good video my friend 👍🇺🇸
Larry your Halverson grapple saw is on a league of its own. Stay cool and dry. Appreciate you watching and commenting 👍TCT
Tony i am with you on having it as one unit . That seems like too much to fool with having to run the extra hoses & attach the hydro block to the tractor then hook up the individual pieces to the plate. Although it would be handy to only have 1 grapple if you needed it for a particular job.
Yup I think Artillian would get more interest if they sold it as a dedicated grapple. Thanks for watching and commenting. 👍TCT
That is the coolest grapple I have seen yet! Great job Tony👍👍
Jeremiah I agree, it definitely is different than other grapples out there. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Remember, always engaged your parking brake! Glad you didn't let it get away from you. Grapple is a serious consideration for my CK 2620, had the third function installed when I got it. Trying to decide which one to get is maddening. Trees, brush and rocks/boulders are my main objectives. Thanks for sharing. So many cool tools out there.
Tractor was on a slight incline and I did have my brake on but tractor went back slightly. I did have a wheel chock placed but it was about 4” behind the wheel. You definitely have many good choices out there. Let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
It would seem to me the long unsupported fang/fingers on the top grapple would not play nice with rocks and boulders.
@@iffykidmn8170 This grapple is built like a tank with 3/8” AR 400 steel. Though I didn’t show it I had played with several boulders that were a few hundred pounds and it handled them with no problem. Thanks for watching ad commenting. 👍TCT
@@iffykidmn8170 You are correct the AR400 is an abrasion type steel but here are some specs of the strength. AR200 steel is 70k psi yield strength AR400 is 177k psi yield strength. Many manufacturers use the AR400 because it’s so strong. 👍TCT
That’s a really innovative design Tony. I’ve never seen one like that.
Dick is been out for a few years but hasn’t gotten a lot of traction yet. It definitely is built well and functions extremely well. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Now that’s a grapple!
It definitely is a beast of a grapple and gets the job done! Appreciate you watching and commenting 👍TCT
This looks like it will be better than my old cable come-a-long. The steel cable is too short and binds up, especially when I’m trying to initially deploy it.
Ironically I started with the steel cable come along and experienced the same problem of short cable and would not wind on the spool correctly causing ti to jamb up all the time. Thanks for watching and commenting.TCT
I have the model 6 13 love it it hasben working for years
Troy, the Lucas mill is definitely a well engineered piece of equipment. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT

You should make a video of how to upgrade the firmware on the BT780. I downloaded the latest firmware but there are so many files within the ZIP it isn't clear which files to use for the update. Copying the Zip file to the SD card and selecting Update Firmware does nothing.
Thanks for the suggestion. I will try to contact Foxwell and see if there is an easy way to update firmware. Just an FYI they are very slow to respond. Appreciate you watching and commenting 👍TCT
Tony the bolt runs thru the channel from top to bottom correct? Is there a plate on the bottom side of the channel or just large washers or something else?
Donald you are correct, the bolt goes from the top through the square channel and has a large washer and lock nut at the bottom. Thanks for watching commenting👍TCT

Expense vs. Investment. Buy a higher end model.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
I am very new to this. When you put the rope around the tree, did you place the rope in the hook or did you actually tie it off? Also, you stated the ATV weighs 2000 pounds and that the unit has a 1500 pound capacity. How is it that you were able to use this to pull the ATV on the trailer? I’m trying to learn the safety rules. Thank you so so much for your time Sir.
Craig regarding the tree I just put the rope around tree and clipped on the hook. Regarding the UTV, though it weighs 2000 I’m not lifting the machine totally all I’m doing is pulling ATV or UTV up a ramp. The weight is considerably less. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Really good video Tony well done!
Donald I’m glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
With your new trailer being wider, are you still able to pull it fully loaded with firewood with a 1/2 ton pickup?
Jeff I had no problems pulling a full load as long as I didn’t put to much weight on the front of the trailer. I had a 82 x 12’ Sur-trac before I bought the N & N trailer so I know it could handle the load. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
