Yeah it was, it looked like some of them were the full Ross builds right down to the cabs too.

I’m not 100% what goes on there, but they always have some Waratah heads in the shop.

Allen & Gibbons I bet. It was on the left side of I5 on your way down?

Yep, that's all Allen & Gibbons' gear. They bought the machine shop next door (to the south) in 2008 when Jeff retired. He was the machinist that was turning cylinders and
pistons for me for years and rebuilding and re-machining rams for H&W's processors. They got all the machining tooling as well.

That's the company that was using the 272 as landing saws and when they heard the 272 was discontinued, they bought a bunch of them NIB and stashed them away in the attic.

Very cool Clearcut. Same yarder I used to run. Lots of power for its size. Great for the mountains in North Idaho and Western Montana where the roads can be kinda tight.

Hmm it didn't show the reply. Was talking about the 6140 you posted.

Yeah, it is a sweet little yarder. I’ve been impressed on its capabilities.

I did tip it over once. Broke two of the 7/8th guy lines and luckily the third was a little wide and so the tower kicked sideways but was the only part hanging over the road. Besides being a bit beat up and ruining a perfectly good pair of underwear, I was fine. Blamed the hookers of course, just like any self respecting engineer would.

There seems to be a lot of Valtras over there.

A view from the landing at some of the Bone Mountain tree farm. There is a lot of reprod out there.

Looks like there’s lots of thinning out there in the future.
