    Mini excavator for logging

    I was actually thinking mostly about the people in the video--2 tractors, chipper and wagon. Or the other one, with the ex feeding the chipper. I know how bad the chip market is in NH, I can't imagine making any money wandering the woods picking up limbs and such.

    Mini excavator for logging

    Any links to get a person started? I spent an hour or so searching "scandanavian biomass" and "biomass in sweden" and so forth and didn't find much at all. Thanks.

    NG to propane generator conversion

    Thanks Bill. I would absolutely have someone who really knew what they were doing do any of the conversion/plumbing stuff. I was just looking for an idea about it. One of my partners has been stressing for 3 days because he didn't really check it out and he thinks he really screwed it up, I...

    NG to propane generator conversion

    It would, wouldn't it? I don't know much more than that off the top of my head and the machine is on a trailer 45 minutes away from me. When you say mfg do you mean Cummins or whoever bought the motor from Cummins and assembled the generator? I kind of figured it would be a relatively...

    I recently acquired a 175KW generator with a Cummins motor. It's natural gas, we'd like to change it to propane. What's the best way to go about it? And if this isn't the proper sub-forum I apologize. I couldn't decide. Thanks!

    311 vs 312 vs ex120

I don't know anything about it, it's got a brush grinder head on it now, but it's a Deere 160 or 200, I can't remember, saw it going by a couple of days ago. Guy cleared a lot and parked it there with a sign in the window. Probably...

    311 vs 312 vs ex120

    With my choice it came down to a few basic things...there seem to be more 311's out there so it's easier to fine one used, I've got the Cat dealer right in my town, and like you said, there isn't much difference between the two really (at least going by the specs). You seem like you're going...
