New toy...Tree Scissors

(1/8) > >>

Well, not scissors, but a "Tree Shear"

I don't own one yet, but am considering purchasing one. They run from a low of around $3,000 for a 12 " capable, manual rotation, up to well over $15K!

The one pictured here that I am considering is a bit under $6,000 and will easily snip a 14" tree, 1" off the ground then snip it into firewood lengths with no manual effort on my part, save my pushing some buttons and moving a lever whilst enjoyin' the heat and stereo music in my comfy cab.

This one is a "Power Axe" by Quick Attach.

Life is all about attachments, isn't it???

Flyin6:
Remember: Don is converting to a wood fired boiler for his toasty warm tootsies this and coming winters...

So's I use this toy to drop the tree and then slice and dice it up into firewood. Then I use my other tool set, two pre-Rangers to load said wood into my trailer. I use C-Max to drive it home where those second tool(s) then off-loads and stacks it in the garage while I sip hot chocolate and complain about my achin' back to my unsympathetic wife.

That's the plan anyway...

You can cut it but can you control where it falls? On the cab, etc?

It’s a pinch or side pass cutter?  No moving saw blade?

Imagine you could pay it off pretty fast with selling wood

What is the plan to re plant your property?
