I've become increasingly convinced over the last 20 years that a Skid steer is the Most useful piece of equipment ever developed for ground work that doesn't involve moving mountains. They are just extremely versatile and the number of attachments made for them just keeps growing.
@@timregan1005 Most of the attachments he's seen "testing" on this channel are sent to him by the manufacture. I don't recall where I heard him talking about it (a podcast I think) but he flat out refuses to do any product reviews unless he's able to give his unfiltered opinion on the product. I genuinely respect that even if I occasionally disagree.
I was mind blown when i saw you use Uniforest grapple. This is a local company where i live. It is located in Slovenia. They make some nice forestry equipment. So cool to see you use a piece of equipment that is made near by where i live.
Andrew. ...Who do I GIVE MY thanks today. ....your father. ...happy father's day....he taught you well. ...& you are my IDOL...WISH YOU GOOD HEALTH....GOD BLESS. ...
Love these videos, just showing how things get done, no drama, no controversy, no politics, no shilling for likes, subscribes, and bell notifications, what a breath of fresh air, thanks.
andrew you are the best, thank you for my camarata fix. i look at you working up on top of your mountain and i see another big container castle and shop . a beautiful long road up the mountain so you can get cement trucks up the road . i look at your videos and dream of the things you do. how beautiful your castle would be up there. and god what a great video that would make. thank you andrew . please keep them coming .
It's nice to see the TL 12 working at it's best cause I don't think the small TL 10 would be able to handle that Grapple so well. Nice to see what looks like a brand new Husqvarna chain saw.
Lost a guy who was carrying a spar straight on with the same set up. Hit a bump and the log dug into the ground and sent it into his chest. Try to keep it off center while driving straight when possible
@@kschleic9053 agreed, best to use this in reverse which obviously has its limitations or in a tree care application where you are feeding a chipper. I could see a homeowner using it to hold logs for bucking firewood.

Amazing to watch how quickly Andrew gets familiar with a new tool and becomes more and more efficient with its use in a short span of time! (Of course this is a condensed version, but still it's a short time) And well done in cleaning out the forest! Great video and a fun to watch it.
He got it when there’s snow on the ground and at the end of the video the trees are green. Probably around 6 months as it’s now June and that is a long time to learn a piece of equipment.
Definably awesome on the back on a tractor. Used a grapple like that on a mowi 400 3 point hitch crane for years. Get a big front weight and fixed stabilizer legs that go up/down using the 3 point hitch and combine it with a farming/log trailer on a tractor with a swivel seat.
Andrew, part of what makes your videos so compelling is not just what equipment you have, but how good you are at using it. Love your work ethic, too! Love the channel!
Gotta love a good ole root grapple or a demo bucket very handy, I do see a purpose for a log grapple though many saw mill operators use them on a mini skid steer to move logs around the saw mill
I was thinking that in the beginning, the tool you were using before was more practical but awesome video its interesting to see all these attachments that normal people dont know about .. its like an interesting science show where theres new experiments with new gadgets
Grapple bucket definitely allows you more lift capacity and better traction as the skid steer stays flatter on the tracks. Grapple attachment seems like it would be good for selective cleaning in forested areas.
@@MRBenchwork They make them for mini excavators, cotontop3 uses one over on his channel, though his seems like a really heavy duty brand. They've been used on mini's for a while by people doing smaller tree work. Small grapples like this definitely have a niche. not just on mini's, but skid steers and tractors too. I think the mini would definitely handle one the best, but the if distance you're moving them is very far then it might not be as good of an option because of how slow they are.
They work really well for dragging whole trees through tight spots and feeding a chipper. We have a mini skid with a grapple attachment and it's a perfect setup for residential tree work. With the grapple bucket you have to cut all the logs to fit through the gate, with the attachment you just drag them behind you as long as you want. It all depends on what you're doing, for wide open land clearing nothing beats a full sized skid with a grapple bucket.
Andrew I have to agree with you as far as the root grapple, as far as the other grapple you have for the skid steer is better for the jobs you have up there, than the root grapple, and also think it would be better served on the back of Tractor. Great video Andrew, and good to see you again.
The height & precision spin/place function seems capable for that use if needed. There is a lot of stockpile at the castle from the blasting. Need structure/wall ideas now.
Awesome work ! There's other brand of log grapple that come with a winch , tree pusher , telescopic boom , dozer blade and a saw in a all in one package
You could make a video pulling weeds by hand and I’m sure it would still get a million views. The content you provide is always entertaining. Please keep up the great work.
great job as allways ! you could think about laying down some field flower seeds like in the plot in the end of the video. It will help the pollinators in your area and then more birds will come with time. Keep making awsome videos.
Andrew, I have not even looked at the video yet but I have to thank you just the same. Thank you for giving me some relief from the onslaught of terrible news terrible politics and tragic events. I look everyday to see if you put out a new video with hope in my heart that I'll have a few minutes of just hanging out and watching what you're up to. So thank you, and after this video I'll be waiting just the same for your next one.
Excellent video! The best way to use the new style grapple is a version that mounts on an excavator. That way you create a small yarder for cleanup, transporting, and stacking. On my category 2 tractor, I have a skidding winch that is a great way to skid and then transport logs. You have the ultimate way to skid out big logs. Your new place is looking great!
A capable accessory for the skid steer under the control of a master skilled operator. A joy to watch, almost like a well oiled machine working together - man and his equipment. Andrew is truly a master at machines. I am glad to see new content We missed you Andrew!
i love watching all the vids. Lets see more of your pretty little helper too. She does fantastic camera work also. You are lucky. You guys are a great team. I have a feeling she is pretty good at opperating some of the equipment too.
great addition to accessories in lumber work . now if you found a second hand chipper , you could grind and fire the chips back for trail or just compost assistances. Spring clean ...check ...summer clean and gather fire wood ...check . Great job.
ThankYou Andrew you got a Videographer finally I know but it’s better than moving a tripod all the time no it’s your choice but glad to see your back . Yeah I agree that new grappler is good for cutting firewood and stacking logs Thank you Andrew for letting me come along and watch you do what you do best
Andrew I’m not quite sure what to do I texted you on telegram but I’m not sure if I’m doing it right I’m not a young gun like you and don’t know all the new stuff like Telegram please explain to me I tried one when you first sent the telegram thing out guess I didn’t get through to you sorry
Thank you for showing us that not everything is gloom and doom. Hard work deals with good times as well as bad times. Congratulations for posting a new video.
Blue is such a good dog, much more calm then Cody at the same age! The land seems a bit damp, would make a awesome irrigation or drive way video, but I'm sure all of that is in the making 😉
Excellent combo ! j'étais septique au début de la vidéo mais très vite Andrew a trouvé ses marques avec son engin TL12 passe-partout et cette pince à bois ! Pas besoin de débusqueur destructeur ! Andrew ? Mets un pantalon de coupe de bucheron !!! Merci pour tes vidéos fantastiques ! Passe de bêles journées :)
Always so interesting, informative, fun & entertaining... Excellent video work and editing, and now a female helper?... Nice! Really appreciate all your good work Andrew... Thank you!
I started watching this video 52 seconds after it was posted. I thought "finally Ill be the first to watch and give a like" 104 people already liked this video when I clicked on it. 52 seconds! Like your videos man.
Andrew I enjoy your videos always those skid steer loaders are very impressive the Takeuchi you own seem to be very versatile and powerful machines, you also have a nice variety of attachments for them too very useful.
I agree, would be a cheap as lternative to a dedicated log skidder if you already owned a tractor but the gra pple bucket is about the most useful attachment ever invented for a skid steer.
That has a lot of exposed fittings at the top of the grapple. I used a prentice 120 to build tons of rock / bolder retaining walls. The grapple is handy for flipping and rotating the rock into position. Try to find an old forwarder, I think you would have a million uses for it.
That new device works great for logging in a dense forest or a small property where a Skidder could on fit,or would be too damaging to the property. But like you demonstrated, "The CLAW", just performs perfectly....
Encore, Encore!! That was fun to watch, thanks. I watch those forestry mulchers on a skid steer and they leave a carpet of fine mulch on the ground and they can take an acre of land in no time. I'd love to see you have one but your area always seems to have a ton of rocks that are visible and I don't know how well that might keep up with a forestry mulcher. 11:45 pm in Ohio. Air alerts going on and I have to stay indoors. You should find a section of land and build a few cabin rentals. Someone could sleep, built a fire in a pit and literally get away for the peace and quiet.
We had a Ford 600 and just used a cable choker attached to the draw bar to pull Mondrone, Oak and fir trees to the open field at grandpas place to be cut up. The grapple would have been nice to use as you can do so much more with it. Thanks for the videos
It's funny, I look at the description and I see NEFFEX, for the music, I love that music from the youtube audio library. I use them myself. long-time viewer, first-time commenter. I am using your videos as inspiration. Tons of footage and then cut out the trash parts leaving only 20 to 30 mins of video, put in some time-lapse and add the music. I would love to come over and see your work in person. also the ability to buy up land like you have, we wouldn't be able to afford anything like that in the UK, any land worth anything is worth millions. and if it isn't worth millions it way to far away to make it work. Im an hour away from London and so our prices are very high even for land as it will be built on for people wanting to leave the City.
I could definitely see a use for a 3 point mounted version of this for the back of my tractor. Specifically, for pulling out single logs from tight areas with minimal damage to surrounding trees.
I'm glad you come to the same conclusion I did. We've seen you use that demo grapple for just about everything. This log lifter is too much of a one trick pony to be useful. Great video as always, thank you.
The one advantage i see is it can grab logs long ways so you can haul them out between tight trees. Grapple bucket cant really do that without dragging them in the reverse.
We have a bobcat mt100 mini track loader at work. It has a Ryan equipment log/brush grapple on it and it’s great for going into peoples yards without tearing the grass up or driving through wet or uneven terrain
Glad to see another new video I watch lots of RUclips and without a doubt yours are my favorite I wish you would post more when you can you do so many different things and it’s always interesting, God Bless and stay safe
Hmm.. i think that will be useful for retaining wall out of rocks or stonewalls, you can twist and turn and it is not stiff so it easy to use with your bobcat/skidsteer if you don’t have your excavator on site. Fun to see all your videos!! 🚜👍🏻🇸🇪
Made my day seeing you agan keep up the great work skid steers are they most universal tool out there isn't it. Looking forward to seeing another episode of The Adventures of Andrew and Friends
I hate he doesn't read the comments, I appreciate these videos so much and hang on the edge waiting for the next - genius videographer and content I wait for, thank you Andrew
This attachment is manufactured by a local private owned company close to where I live! They are a very ambitious group of guys and most loggers around here use their equipment. I am guessing they did not put any connectors on the hoses or the cable because they ship to so many countries that providing a universal solution just doesn’t work. Best for the user to get whatever he finda the best fit for his machine:)
Loved the video, love the way You describe to the everyday joe like me why you prefer one over the other and agree with you the older one seems better for what you are doing, you a

That attachment looks like the perfect tool for positioning large rocks for rock features/walls etc.
Exactly i was thinking 🤔
That rake/grapple bucket does everything! I think it’s a top 3 accessory for a skid steer.
Blue blends in with the ground so much. Cody is doin a great job training him to stay safe and out of the way of the machines!
I noticed how he blends in with the background just saying from up north UK 🇬🇧
