Never understimate the usefulness of a loader

John: Your 586C evidently pulverizes rocks as well as wood?

Doug, nicely done! Is that your Magnatrack I see in the next bay over in your shop? If so, does it have a broken track?

 

[dlbarnett]

Yes that is my Magnatrac. Its in the shop because it needed new bearing that support the transaxle in the frame, and axles and bushings on the left lower track rollers. The tracks are fine.
I've been meaning to post pic of building the loader. but haven't had time.
Here's a couple of pics of it in action at Laughing squirrel lodge

Many years ago while "parking" with a girl at a local cemetery the town cop came by to see what we were doing there well after dark. I told him we were just obeying the cemetery's sign "GET A LOT WHILE YOU'RE YOUNG". Thinking of that tonight, I thought I'd pop in to say "GET A LOADER WHILE YOU'RE YOUNG".
