Had its first outing today. Probably saved 1.5 having the winch. Sweet!

Lol, i get it. I trained my guy well, he claps off his shoes outside the truck before he gets in. Sick right? :lol:

Just cant get enough on the spool. Id be surprised if you can get 100 on there. Sure spools faster though, i noticed the stretch kinda sucks at times too. This is from using a friends.

You know, it was never a big deal not having one with the little chipper. Now with this bigger one i realized the need. You cant use the machine to its potential by hand feeding. The winch can pull more than the mini can drag at times so some tree with be one cut, winch and chip.

Ive thought of that. Im not too worried. I was going to put a chafe sleeve on, i have a roll of tubular webbing in the barn. I was excited yest and forgot. Can add that later if needed.

We got winched. Justed buttoned up the install. Works with no leaks! I applaud bandit for such a nice setup, easy install, easy directions, all needed parts come included down to cable ties for neating up the hydro lines. I recommend to anyone thinking about adding one to theirs.

Im curious to see how the smaller stuff will hold up. If its decent, can you guys get longer lengths? I want to put 250-300 on it ideally. For every day use the asmteel held up well where i used to work. I remember breaking it working near a stone wall. That can be avoided by using a...

Ha, stuff will be here tuesday i think. Thanks for the surprise nick!

Heats pumping in the paint shop today. Aka, corner of garage. Hope to install tuesday.

I ended up ordering 1/4 amsteel from tree stuff. Seems to be the same as the "black widow", though that seems to be a distributor applied code name of some sorts. Same specs. See how it does. Gotta pick up the winch tommorrow, set up a paint booth in the garage, have my bro lay some paint...

Yes, resplice the end.

The synthetic ive always used def wasnt as durable. We would cut off the end and i would re splice it a couple times a year. Pros maybe being able to run it through our pulleys, light weight, easy reparable, and possibly no spring back on snap, and no burrs. Steel seems bomber, though harder...

Thanks. Cory, what line and terminal hardware are you using..

Will it harm an auto? Never thought of this! Sounds sweet cory, another trick in the bag!

Thanks nick, nice vids! I used them at two places where i worked on bb250's. Also subbing with harlan id watch two amigos tear apart his tangled web of tree limb with one. Def. a great thing to have. I told my help today and he was pumped. Excited to get it on there. I have three trees...

Id sell mine with all the parts i have if anyone interested to adapt it.

Heres pauls, and willies.

There was a good thread on it in one of the old forums. I started building one for my woodsman. It can prob be plumbed and would work. I wanted the factory one. Willies was custom too from what i remember.

$4123.84 plus tax and shipping. :lol: Kinda just gotta have it on a 15" chipper. Still only have $25k into the chipper with now 275 hours, so i think its still a smoking deal overall. I feel with that i can limit the equipment that goes out (mini), and it will open up other options.

No, the factory hydraulic winch from bandit.
