Tim, it was a pleasure to meet you in person. Having watched a ton of your stuff, I felt as if I already knew you. Glad you liked my cat and I hope your arm heals soon. Look me up next time your back down this way.

Cat was the only company that offered everything my wife wanted in her new 302. That combined with their superior support and seven year warranty, you said it right when you said you get what you pay for. I’ve been breaking trail for her in the Maine woods all week and the machine is a dream of comfort and productivity. Be well Tim, rest up

Some fairly out there LGP - low ground pressure small excavators are those in Ireland. F F Polymers makes a range of wide Nyrim trackpads that can lower track ground pressure down to 1.2 psi (for a 7.5 ton excavator). Make the swing machine fit the job. With the larger port dockside cranes, the local port is lifting Cat 538 log loaders (70K lbs)onto the log ships to stack the logs in the holds. Probably among the few options left is for Tigercat to build some urban backyard logging machinery.

Enjoyed following you on your trip,what a beefy machine. You are 100% correct on protecting your skin because I am a prime example and 17 I was diagnosed with melanoma on my left shoulder took a huge chunk out of my shoulder and the lymph nodes it was OK for six months and it came back on my lungs, was scheduled for 40 Key Truda treatments everything was going fine but On number 27 My body said that was it no more, now they have found some on the brain and I’m taking a different chemo for you so you are correct look after your skin. I’m like you I had formed all my life Hunnit all my life finished all my life and probably didn’t look after my skin like I should have, so everybody listen to why the man is trying to tell you it’s not a fun trip. Thanks Tim for putting out the word

I would recommend you to check out the cat 309 , it has a dual hydraulic pumps and seems to have all kinds of power , and when you use other hydraulic devices while running the backhoe , you barely loose any digging power to dig 😎

That'd be a good machine for you I'd think for lifting the heavier logs and on the off chance you did have to fool with some stumps you'd have the power and weight to to do it. We're running a 2017 cat 305 e2 and while it's a good machine it's not big enough. We do a lot of lot clearing in gated subdivisions and it's to hard to get a lowboy in there to haul our big machine and the little 305 just takes forever with the big hardwoods. We're looking at the new cat 310. Like to have that along with a grapple like you have on your Kubota.

I own 2 308E2 CR with FJX S/N prefix. they are very powerful machines. The factory thumb is not very robust. They tend to spread at the top pin over time. I have replaced one at about 4K hours and the the other is OK at 2.4 K hours. Thompson Machinery in the top half of the state should give you good service. Cat parts inventory is great. I run 36 inch bucket on both machines doing septic and drainage work. Does this machine have a quick coupler? If so is it hydraulic or manual screw type? It weighs about 18K lbs and you can pull it with your Ram with the right tandem dually trailer.

Tim the 308 CR is in the mini excavator category and the weight is 20077 pounds with their 165 operator weight guess without a operator it’s under 20000 thousand pounds

I have been looking at Sanys they have some good deals and supposedly a good support network, I am looking at like a 95- 100 series machine. my last machine was a 50 series Hitatchi love that little machine would get in a back yards great but didn't have the strength I was looing for. Most of the machines I have ran in the past were the real big stuff the 400-1200 series and when I bought a small one it was a learning curve due to no strength with the little one's also I like the little one's with the standard set back boom I don't like the one's that have the backhoe swing or offset booms. I don't need that option and feel they have to many wear points.

Table spoon of white vinegar to a pint of warm water. Soak a clothe in it and lay it on the stitches for 10-15 minutes. I then put a prescription ointment on the cut and wrap it back up.

Tim my wife died from Melanoma, how serious is it, well she was working a regular indoor job and within 3 weeks of having no symptoms she was dead..3 weeks! What's so bad about skin cancer you ask well 1) you don't think much about it because usually the bad spots don't look serious, small mole looking spots..2) by the time you notice it or its bugging you on your skin it's usually too late.

Im using a yanmar sv100, a 21k lb. machine. It is stout as hell and has good power but its the ergonomics and small things that really show the difference from cat. Not as refined which is another reason for the price difference.
