The winch I plan to make will use an old drum from a junk winch with a 2' circumfrence...the commercial 3pt logging winches seem to have a line speed of between 2 to 5 ft/sec. I've found some series 60 roller chain with a 44 tooth gear. I am hoping to gear down to at least 4/1 but ideally more like 9/1. To some extent I can control the speed with the rpms on the pto. I like the engine idling at about 1200 rpm anyway which will put the pto around 270 rpm...getting me into the right range on line speed. I plan on copying the commercial winches with a blade/barbed grapple that will brace the tractor against the pull and then hold the end of the log up for skidding. I plan on driving the drum through an old magnetic clutch I found for a front pto (I hope it will handle the torque)...If it works this will be nicer than the lanyard operated manual clutches I have seen, and it will still work as a

I plan on skidding as big a tree as I can with this system on a Ford 1500 4wd...
first on the hit list tho are 80' aspens that need a major thinning.
Can we start a discussion on what to do with aspen/popple/poplar since this whole project started for me because since I coulndt get any loggers to do the job for the logs I figured that for the money I would spend I could get most of the equipment myself :-)
I am open to any suggestions anyone can give...I have learned more in the last 4 weeks about tractors and logging and falling trees than I ever had the slightest idea ever existed!

I have never looked at a 2710 frame, but the frame on my 1700 clearly is steel, and therefoore is very likely lighter than an all cast frame. I like the fact that it is steel, as steel flexes under stress, while cast remains rigid until its limits are exceeded, then will crack. ( ie, steel has an inherent modulus of elasticity). Could it be that in this case lighter is stronger ( remember the poor guy a few weeks ago with a Long tractor which cracked in 2, right through a cast portion of the frame)<br>PaulB

I bought a 4200 hydro last winter and still had to wait 30 days before delivery but, that's not all that bad considering the waits others have gone through when they ordered later in the year. I doubt you will see dealer incentives except on close-out models but you will probably get more personal attention from the dealer.

G.Smith,<br>If I'm understanding your properly, Your bucket starts tipping front after 3-4 minutes...Or at least that is what mine does. But I thought that was somewhat normal, because every loader I've ever used dropped a little if I have something in the bucket and the tractor is shut off. Now if its running, sounds like a leak of some sort. Don't know what to tell you.

I ripped my housing off within first 50 hours of use. You probably wacked it on something. It is in a very vulnerable place. When you order a new one, order a spare.

Not exactly an answer to your question, but something to prolong those air filter changes. Cut the legs off an (old pair) of pantyhose and stretch it over the filter. Use a rubberband to keep the pantyhose in place. A set of womans hose could probably give you at least 4-6 pre-filter changes, depending upon the length of your wife's legs. <br>Also take notice: pantyhose are stretchable, in that the

A light coat of oil on the hose would hurt either. Lastly, dark ones work the best, they show the collected dirt better, which better tells you when to change your "pre-filter". BTW, Woman aren't fond of you cutting newly purchased Pantyhose for purpose of dirt filtering on your tractors. "> air filter

Take them and run...<br>You can get spindle plates, which are a large washer with the holes pre drilled at most out door equipment dealers. Most will be able to match up the spindle also.<br>You can always sell the tiller for more than you are paying for both, if your ground is too tuff or your tractor just cannot spin it effectively. I have been looking for one, and they are not cheap or many around. <br>Good luck<br>mario
