Nice work. Love the open deck trailer. Looks like you got it big enough to carry some implements too. Just got the same ripper for my BX25. Only used it once so far. Works good on some decent sized roots.
All I could find at the time, bought at the beginning of COVID. Got her for a good deal. Actually looking to downsize. I agree it’s a bit big but nice to have.
Does the ripper make that much of a difference compared to the backhoe. Looking to buy one just want to make sure it will make my work easier that's if there is a significant difference. Thanks mate... 👍
Yea, the ripper concentrates the hydraulic load to a single point. It is also sharp and serrated to assist with cutting of roots. Great addition if you plan on pulling a bunch of stumps.
Only way he will learn is get on and try it 👍 good job guys

Thanks!! Yea the trailer is awesome! Ripper works great at ripping roots! Love it!
A bit tricky but works ok when you get the hang of it. Thanks for the video!
By the time you get the binder and chains out.
I can have strapped up and be down the road 10 miles.
LOL
Yep, working on switching to straps now, no need for chains and binders with a tractor this small
Can you give me more information on the chain and wratchet setup you have
just standard chains and standard binders from tractor supply.
Hi Kevin, any tractor videos coming soon... ☺️... 👍 Thanks mate
Yes, soon. Sorry for the delay, spending time with the baby is just too much fun!!!
Why do you need a huge deck over trailer for a BX23?

@@LukyNumbrKevin yeah Covid screwed everything up, it is a very nice trailer and gives you room for extra equipment too
Yea it’s great when we head 5 hours north to the Farmhouse for vacation, can pack everything the family needs and all the tractor stuff.
Have you ever tried to split a log using thumb and ripper?
I don’t believe I have, would make for an interesting video. Let me see if I can get some time away from the infant soon to make quick video.
I was thing about buying them but wanted to see if the machine had enough power
@@LukyNumbrKevin did you get a chance to try it yet?
Are you running the Kubota thumb, with the Bxpanded quick on?
The Kubota Thumb, let me know if you have any other questions. Sorry for the delay in responding.

How long did that entire job take you? Is there anyway to add a timeline? Great video!
Nah, not at this point. Including loading, travel and work time this is probably a 6 hour job, add in video editing you're at around 12 hours.
You definitely need a smaller trailer
Tell me about it, brought up north about 5.5 hours and on the hills the 1/2 ton struggled
