| Super nice rig Mark!!! You're going to love that thing! In the photo it looks like you got the Hetronic brand remote too! I like the bed (do the stakes/posts on the top of the sides of the bed extend up?) |

| Mike: I did get that remote. The stakes pull out turn upside down to make them longer. On the back where the 45 is there are to full length too slots for pruners etc. Quintex: No wire rope or winch Trev: Im not right near Mike but I did spend time with him before I decided on mine. |

| Hey Trev Mcrev How ya' doin? (sorry i haven't posted much lately-been super busy!) No competition between Allmark& I at all! (He's over 1000 miles away from me!) He came out & worked with me a couple days last fall (truly good man) I tried to give him input to help him make purchase decisions. Had a good time hanging out, but we worked in the cold rain the whole time! Another company from Canada came down here last month to check out the crane. The lg tree i took down in 2.5 hrs, he said his crew would have taken 2 days! Sooooo, he ordered the same rig! I don't get anything out of this except knowing i've made someones working life easier and i can always learn something from them too! I realy think we're going to see alot more of these rigs in the industry soon! Roller any company with enough work can afford one! If a company has lots of idle time, then i wouldn't recommend splurging on one (you've also got to have good credit & some money down) If anyone ever wants to come visit, you're welcome! (i'm about 2 hrs south of chicago) |

| Yeh it was a great time working with Mike. Really helped me finalize my decision. I also learned alot of techniques for working with the knuckleboom. I hope I can find stuff to passon back and forth so we can all become more productive and safer. This kind of sharing amongst us can only help the industry and ourselves. |
