I think once you have experience running it, it will be a lot faster than the skid steer puller, or the excavator with bucket n thumb. The guard was a little tall, the leverage made the bolts shear easy i believe. Looks like you guys are on to something. Thanks for sharing, always enjoy watching!
Needs a little tooth bar on the back side so the thumb can pick up things that are turned in the wrong direction for the shears to grab. Would love to have something like that for fence rows.
At around 7:00 and again at 14:00 or so, I was wondering why you weren't sheering the limb off, rather than wrestling it. Then I remembered you were using a tree puller and not a sheer. Later I heard you say you had sheer blades in mind. That SSQA adapter made a believer out of me. I was thinking of all manner of twick and sisted things you could do with a wicked grapple on the end to clean up some of that mess.
After you broke the hydraulic hose, it was obvious you weren't using the gimbal anymore as the video became so shaky, I got tired of it and left. But it's fun watching you go through the learning curve, Ted.
I'm in the clearing business with a 307Ell Cat I can't see any practical use for this tool on a track hoe. It works great on a skid steer. Don't want to hurt your feelings but I wouldn't take it if you shipped it to me free. Everything about it is working against the engineering of a track hoe.
Pointless attachment and very poor digger driving,A 12" bucket would have had the job done in half the time and all that force on the bucket linkage would be to severe for the machine long term and void any warranty ,How you can think this video is promotional is beyond me
Everything you did could have been done with a bucket and thumb, and probably better that way. Your market is small to mid sized tractors, your video with the svl showed this is a useless implement for your target audience
New nickname.... "Tear it Up" Ted.
"I think I'll put my seat belt on" 😂 HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Ted and EA RULE!!!!!!!!
Like I said yesterday on the phone, I don’t want you running my equipment but you can build my attachments, they have to be tough 😂.

I guess being the owner has its perks if you flip it and destroy it the company can pay for it.😮
Im sorry but i cant see this catching on good luck though
I dont see this for sale on your site for excavators, so will this be made? What is the minimum diameter this can work pull?
It would be nice if you would build rock rakes or harley rakes they are some of the most over priced equipment on the market.

The poor equipment!
Even 'if' the product was good, who would know?
