I saw somethimg somewhere that resembles the clamping claw they use for moving timber in a catalog. It scissor clamps around small trees and attatches to a vehicle to pull them out the ground. I search HF but can't find it. Anyone know who has it? Is has a scissor action, it tightens when it's pulled on and spikes in the clamp portion dig into the tree. I can't find it anywhere and some of this stuff is too small to wrap a chain around. Any idea ladies and gents?
 
No, that aint it. It looks like a scissors jack w/ an open mouth. In the mouth are rectangular metal pads with short metal spikes.
 
I would ditch the scissor things and move on to high explosives.
 
4" I can wrap a chain around. It's the small stuff I'm having trouble with.

8" and it'll come right out. This truck will blow your mind with what it can do.

I think 9" or 10" might be a bit too much though.

Kinda like Edgar Montrose on the Red Green Show?
 
If it's stuff like privet hedge (ligustrum), get "Arsenal". After it's dead, just snap it off at ground level.

Na, got J10, snatch it out SCREAMIN' ....roots and all!

I will try that on two I have that I can't get to w/ the truck. So far, old 20/50, 85/90 and bad gas haven't done the trick yet.
 
Arsenal will kill anything except "evergreens". Chop and squirt.

Just ice down 12 on a saturday and "do" th' weedin'.

Oh yea of little faith.

Also, it's a Southern thang, called marking your territory.

I do it most every morning, always try to hit the dandelions first.
