IthacaJeff 151 #26 Posted February 5, 2011 Mike: No, it was not me that got the loader. The guy never got back to me, I guess I could have been more persistent. But when I finally did get around to re-checking, and wanting to go see it, the CL ad was removed. Ya' snooze ya' lose; no hard feelings for any of our RS members that might have sapped it up. Good for you. I'm still unsure of what I'd like and what I can afford. I think a JohnnyBucket type thing would handle 75% of my needs, but the other 25% would be a serious benefit! Of that 25% I don't think a garden tractor loader could do it all. Those Terramites look handy, and my mind is beginning to obsess. . .

squonk 41,040 #27 Posted February 5, 2011 I obsessed for 2 yrs. Bid on a bunch on E-bay. Had a budget at the time of $2000. Got out bid every time. Finally said piss on it, bought the King and built one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MikesRJ 552 #31 Posted February 6, 2011 This thread reminds me of another perplexing question which has been nagging at me for years: How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? The answer to this age old question has perplexed people for eons. Part of the reason the question is so difficult to answer is that the amount of wood that woodchucks would chuck on a given day varies greatly with the seasons and with the metabolisms of any individual woodchuck. Modern internet technology has advanced to the point that we can reliably monitor the amount a woodchuck chucks in real time. The results of this monitoring are shown below. Please note that the numbers vary due to the dispositions of the woodchucks involved. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am new here and see this old post from 10 years ago and have to ask, what brand or make is your loader? I have the same type and don't know who made it.
