That thing is SWEET! I've wanted to get a skidsteer spade by that company but haven't quite found the need yet. How has it been working out? Curious for a update.

Awesome! Its good to see the world is finally coming around and preserving trees instead of knocking them all down. Nice work!

save a tree, move a tree

It is a great benefit to the property value of the land where this is used, and gives a natural barrier in a matter of hours or days instead of 4' tall trees that take 20+ years to grow. Sadly, it still costs less to cut the tree down that move it...

Ahh Volvo.. is there any more Swedish? :bouncegri

When I was little there was an Volvo wheelloader going through town picking up trees everywhere. It had a treespade to but it was much smaller and for wheelloaders. Not sure on what model the machine was but I belive it was in size with L120.
