Can you just imagine what it would have been like to bring down those samplings before they added operational thumbs to excavators? Good tools + world class operators who know what they're doing & do it right = happy & satisfied customers = YOU GET PAID. Well done as always, Chris.

Whats even more baffling, even to this day a lot of countries refuse to adapt to the thumbs and wont add them or even make them available as an option.

Ever consider adding (I know these are not cheap attachments/machines) a large 24"+ capacity mobile chipper and a large rotating shear to your array of land clearing equipment allowing you to chip and spread all organic (Trees, Brush, and Stumps) from land clearing jobs as an added benifit to land owners as all the organic materials would compost back into soil and greatly improve quality of topsoil w/o any burning as shear and chipper would make quick work of even the largest of stumps? Seems to me that this add on process would be especially attractive to farmers and ranchers who could start disking and mixing mulch into top layer immediatly greatly speeding up composting process and getting land ready for crops w/o much need to add expensive soil admendments to land you clear and grade?
