RCP Compound

Seems like the operator has been behind some CAT controls before a time or two eh? Good job on the conversion Reg.

A little but not a whole bunch. I guess I've put over 1000hrs on my Kubota since I bought it but I don't know much. I just pull levers and hope for the best.lol

I filmed a short in cab video tonight. The camera really picked up the noise so turn the volume down if you don't enjoy horrible noise.

Probably never. We haven't had snow here for 4 winters in a row! Cool toy though.

With the nice weather I have been trying to spend more time outside of the shop. This thing hadn't been run in two years so I had to clean the carb(more than once), drain the fuel and so on just to get it running. I haven't messed with these things much in years but it had a pretty serious bog off idle before so while I was playing mechanic I started trying some different jetting. It's a bit fat at full throttle(me too) but I have it running pretty good now.

Looks like fun! Any you didn't even take a dirt nap!

Not really anything to do with "the compound" but I insured this yesterday for the first time in a couple of years. I went for a 50K logging road/trail ride today and did one yesterday too. Both rides were only about two hours a piece but it was great to be back on this thing! Good times...

Snow run.

[RCP57]

We had some snow over the last week but normal weather has come back and now the snow is gone. This was the first time since 2010 that we've had enough to actually play in here at our place so I was in a mad dash to run as much stuff as I could in the snow as it built up. THe snow eventually got too deep for anything other than the Tigercat. I was amazed at how well it plowed snow!

Good to see you are making it through the winter Reg, started to think you were like the bears and went and found a hole to hibernate in until spring ! !

Great photo's of the Logging operation... Did you use a drone for those shots ? looks like full size machines. Trees sure are big on the South end of the Island.. haahah

Very nice shots! It fun to be outside with "scale snow"

[ScottLay]

Nice logging equipment Reg.

Great scenic shots with the 850 Reg, this is my favorite, it'd be the perfect photo for a calender.

LOL. Far from hibernating Greg. Just sticking close to my workbench which is a blessing and a curse. No drone, just a Kim.

Yes it was fun! It's all gone now though and that's fine with me.

Pictures on the bridge are always my favorite too Joe. I hope to do a calendar this year for 2018. I tried last year but the high resolution pictures I asked for never arrived. Doesn't anyone own a decent camera anymore???

Whatcha workin on Reg? Love the winter scenery pics, your skidder is one of my favorite models on the board. If you put a calendar together, put me down for one.

Good to have you back Jason! I have often wondered what ever happened to you.lol I don't have anything on the go for myself unfortunately. I have a few different things that I would like to build but at the moment I am solely focused on customer projects and keeping my head above water. Maybe one day I will have the time and budget for my own goodies again but I don't see it happening anytime soon.

If I have some calendars made for next year I'll let you know!
