Default Cool machine, but... Beaver Retreever

Big Beaver Retreever ROFL. Looks cool, and call me immature, but with a title like that I was expecting 2 little pills that you bring to a womens weight loss support group or night club.

From their site it says:
Quote:
The Big Beaver ReTREEver will trim and remove pieces of the target tree to heights of 67' 11", with load capacities from 8,200 pounds down low to 3,200 pounds at full extension*.
As long as you could drive up to the tree, it looks good. Not much use for the type of stuff I do though.

For those who want to see a flash video I signed up and got it as best I could.

They are using Java to hide the URL of the video. However the URL of the video is also a smoke screen, like the short cut icons on your desk top.

So whilst you can view the flash video here it's not the real videos URL. If some-ones got a Hex editor etc they could crack out the real URL of the video from the link below.

Anyway, here you go

http://www.bigbeaverretreever.net/images/bigbeaver.swf

Or alternatively if some-one can copy this video, great do it!

Ekka if ya want the vid, just record it straight off ya screen... But if you like de-obfuscating java in a hex editor, by all means go ahead

Google Camtasia, I used that all the time to record when I used to have clan wars on RuneScape and it worked really well. It can even make short movie clips into .GIFS :O

You record it and send me the file.

I got too many bloody gadgets hanging off here already and I just not long ago uninstalled FRAPS!

Please, if you can record it even as flash great.

Some software conflicts or gives my PC a hard time and mucks up my video making.
