Try here Ian, https://www.youtube.com/user/RCP57. I'm uploading a few new videos right now from today but they won't be up for a while. I started to build a logging road through the bush...Of course I had to yard the logs(firewood blocks) first with the skidder, then use the EC300D to load road base into the HD, and then haul the gravel from the pit to the new road...lol

Some one has to work to keep the pension money coming in, I am sure your Gran son will let you drive it once in a while, if you are careful.

I thought I was told at one time M&B research had built one with outside help, might have been tested at Menzies bay? Anyway the story was it couldn't handle big enough wood so it was dropped.

That Liebherr machine appears to have low ground pressure tracks on it. Those would not seem to be very well suited to ground with much of a slope?

Hello all on here,
I've been a member for a few years now but only made a few comments.
I've really enjoyed all the postings in this section of HEF. Well done and thank you.
I worked for M&B for several years and totally retired about 10 years ago and moved to Coutts Alberta.
Winters can be ugly and I usually have projects and this year I hope to scan and post pictures that I have.
I'll be stumbling through this.
If they're turkey's let me know and I'll stop. Also if you think they're ok, let me know.
Thank you.

Calling The Shop.
You will know doubt remember the fine gentleman that drove these two trucks at Kelsey. I just enjoyed coffee with them this past weekend, hadn't seen them in many years.

I had no idea that Liebherr produced forestry equipment beyond material handlers, especially a buncher.
Very interesting!
