3 things:
1. Congrats on 100k subscribers!!!
2. I need a grapple.
3. Orange is a great color for you. ;)
Great video Tim. I love these shows they are a wealth of information.
Tim, Glad you've been able to get to 100K subscribers. I love your channel and my favorite videos are the ones with grapples. I am living vicariously through your experiences and really enjoy seeing you helping other people. I also love the tilling and yard planting videos. Keep it up!
Thanks for the kind words, Allen!
Great products, thanks. That rep knows his stuff too.
So glad to see your subscribers have passed the 100,000 mark! Must be nice to know your hard work is appreciated. Wish you much success.
Thank you for the kind words!
Great video . Congrats on 100k that’s awesome you and Christy deserve it. Add a grapple will be a great option for some. Most people already have forks. Thanks Tim 👍jdmich
Tim that add a grapple to forks looks like something a home owner would like
Thanks
God Bless

I talked to you a while back about this grapple it was a bit out of my price range I went with the single grapple , frontier av20f at 200lbs and $1400 I actually picked it up today hopefully I won’t regret going with a single 😄 love your videos keep up the great work!
I really like the quality from this company....too bad they don't have a model with a rock bucket in it.
As so many have already said varying way, good job Brother.
Congratulations on reaching 100k subscribers!!
That looks like a really nice grapple. I have a single lid grapple myself. You've shown time after time that value of a dual lid. If I was to purchase another grapple I'd opt for the dial lid.
Keep the videos coming. We love them!
Thanks Neal! Appreciate you continuing to watch and support us!
Good video Tim. Enjoyed the interview.
I believe that the Stoney Ridge Farmer posted a video on this company this week. Great video May God bless you and your family.
He did. I just watched it. Great company it looks like👍
loved the video keep up the good work and good job at getting to 100,000 subscribers you deserve it
Well-built equipment, looks like you get your moneys worth in design and construction, Thanks Tim, enjoyed the video. 🙋♂️
Congratulations on getting 100,000 subscribers! You guys put out a great product!
Thanks very much!
Tim, I apologize for some of the folks who think a differing opinion in grapple offering justifies personal attacks. Who would have thought a tractor attachment, of all things, would garner such peculiar behavior? I for one appreciate the insight, it will certainly factor into my decision when it comes time to purchase one. I hope precision is successful in their offering, just as I would any other American manufacturer. If people don’t like this option, please go buy something else! Competition in this space benefits us all!
Thanks Mike. I am really disappointed in this behavior. I'm not sure how it benefits their brand.
Congrats on 100K!
The grapple for forks looks handy for moving a lot of logs for fire wood
Nice grapple attachments!
wow you got a like for this video because the "mini fork add a grapple" is a REAL good idea! Can´t to see it on the channel in action! :) and concrats to 100K subs! ;)
christy looking good on john one&rhinogod bless you
These are all made in Sedalia Mo by Bill and his team. Nice work. I just watched a video of their manufacturing facility.
Glad you saw the Stoney Ridge episode!
I saw it too! Both great TH-cam Channels, by the way nice Icing on the 🍪
went to my John Deere dealer for oil and filters , saw a 1025r with john Deere factory cab
Will a 'carry-all' fit on the forks under an add-a-grapple?
I like that Add-a-Grapple for pallet forks! I saw one similar a few years ago but it was a much clunkier design. Looks like an excellent solution for someone who only occasionally needs a grapple for smaller projects. For those with Artillian fork frames it also looks like it would work with in conjunction with one of the Artillian sectional rake lower sections.
Never thought about trying with the lower rake section. If I get a chance, I will try that!
I worked with Bill on this design, making it more lightweight by removing some of the duplicate frame. We think this is quite a cost effective solution!
@@TractorTimewithTim Yes, I agree.
@@TractorTimewithTim this is the first time I've ever thought to myself, "I really want that grapple!" I'm pretty handy with my regular old forks on my Mahindra 1526, but there's been a time or two that a grapple would've been handy. Could never justify the cost though. Looks like I'll be looking into adding a third function and an add-a-grapple. Thanks for another great video!
If we could get a Minifork Add A Grapple with the Electric Ram similar to what Good Works sells that would be a highly affordable home owner tool.
Could a 3rd fork be added in the middle of the add a grapple or would that not work?
Probably not right in the middle..as it would not stay hooked, but slightly offset, yes!
This is a great looking product! I've been shopping grapples for the last few weeks, and I have yet to see a rake-style grapple with a split lid. Tim you've proven that the double clamp is the way to go.
The drawback here is obviously price. I tried the TTWT coupon code and it didn't work, but even so I think this may be out of my budget. Do you think they need someone to prototype it on an orange tractor?
The TTWT code definitely works. Make sure you do not have spaces before or after TTWT...it is 10% off. If the code still doesn’t work for you, cal precision mfg! They will get you the discount.
Which grapple do I need for a Kabota LX 2610? thanks in advance Jason
Check out the Precision mini322. We show it on the LX3310 in a recent video ‘helping a veteran’. Agfolks.com use code ttwt for a 5% discount.
You hit 100k subscribers!!!!
Thanks!
Based just on performance and adaptability/versatility for different types of loads, how would you rate this double grapple vs. the Artillian?
That is very difficult question for me. I really like both of them. Sometimes the flat bottom bed is really nice. Sometimes the clamshell is great too!
Great? I'm torn!!
Eric Laker do you have forks?
Not yet Tim I'm in the market for both the grapple and forks. I do understand the lbs vers tractor capacity!! I want to pick up at much as I can . I don't want to haul heavy attachments for sure. Does no good. I was on artillian it's always is your go too!! Sometimes it's like you said about the tiller. You have to get what is Right for you. I feel the forks from artillian helps with the purchase of both items!!!!! Your videos are very good. It bothers when people are disrespectful. Congrats on your hard work. One million followers.
I think the Artillian is right for you, Eric. You'll get premium forks as well as a modular grapple. I cannot say enough positive things about it. The Artillian diverter is perfectly mated to the 1 series.
AND...there are additional attachments available for the frame (like the front hoe bucket, and 3 point hitch adapter). VERY nice system!
When will you show the mini pallet fork add a grapple in action ?
Ah cool. Kinda forgot. We need to show that!
Tim I installed the 3rd function diverter valve from artillian and ordered the mini pallet add a grapple but when i try to engage the grapple i hear the solenoid clicking but the grapple cylinder wont operate any ideas would be much appreciated?!
Thanks
Does the ‘normal’ function operate instead of the diverted function? Or does neither function work?
Yes the normal function works my forks will raise up and down and tilt but the grapple doesn't move. I had to neck down from 3/8" npt on the cylinder to 1/4" lines to fit my diverter valve maybe it's a flow issue?
@@TractorTimewithTim Yes the normal function works my forks will raise up and down and tilt but the grapple doesn't move. I had to neck down from 3/8" npt on the cylinder to 1/4" lines to fit my diverter valve maybe it's a flow issue?
@@TractorTimewithTim and I should add there is fluid at the grapple quick coupler
I have a slow leak from the base of pioneer coupler but that shouldn't cause it to malfunction should it?
Will the mini fork add a grapple work on a 1025R?
Yes, as long as you add a diverter or 3rd function valve. You can get a diverter kit at artillian.com
Thanks! Love the show. The John Deere pallet fork rack does not seem to have as many position slots. Is another brand a better option? Weight is an issue for me too.
Mike Keil artillian is the premiere. Lightest on the market. Expensive, but the weight and strength makes it worthwhile.
could that be made to work with clamp on forks somehow?
They have an add a grapple for the bucket.

I have there add a grapple for bucket but am looking for a rake grapple and I like that design and build but need bigger and I am not sure I light the design on the bigger ones they offer I do know Precision is a good company and helpful.
TFisadog how big is your tractor?

@@TractorTimewithTim Thanks, one more last question, what is the model or how can I identified it? Thanks again
If you have John Deere, choose the mini320. If SSQA, choose the mini322.
@@TractorTimewithTim I have a Kubota L45 Tractor.
@@TractorTimewithTim Is my Kubota L45 strong enough for this Grapple? Thanks
Tim, we, your fans, need you help. I need your help. Your like the big brother I never met but trust. I can hardly justify a sub-compact tractor. What I need is one of these grapples that do not need a 3rd function. Cost is a issue. It will see use, but not near the volume you do. More like four families indoor fireplace wood hauling from the woods to the trailer or to hold logs to be cut by a chainsaw. Also yard cleanup. My goal is to save my back. Which economical, no 3rd function grapple should I consider?
Honestly? None of them! They are a poor compromise.
The 3rd function diverter from artillian is $715 for a 1025r. Bite the bullet and get it.
You will always be disappointed with the compromise solutions. The electric one is too slow.
The mechanical one does not provide sufficient flexibility/ functionality!
Tractor Time with Tim for what its worth, you are telling me to not get a grapple. I simply can hardly justify a budget price grapple without a 3rd function hydraulic system or diverter. There is no math that comes back justifying the 3rd function plus grapple. I may try to maybe make due with forks only. I’m posting withhopes that at some point you will choose to try some of the no-3rd function grapples then tell us they are a poor compromise but if thats the way you must go, brad X would be best for us and here are some tips.
Understood. Not exactly sure how to handle this. Seems almost cruel to ask a company for product so that I can say that I don’t like it.
I’ll continue to look for ways to show them.
Tractor Time with Tim thank you. Your sponsor “Good Works” has a couple of them he used in his TH-cam video. I noticed, but decided to not comment, he had the Brush Crusher 4200 lower, free hanging stop brackets installed incorrectly. The two, U shaped brackets, when used with the JDQA John Deere Quick Attach need to be in the furtherest down, jaw most open position if you are doing lifting and dumping with a raised front end loader. The channel three cabins mentioned this in his video. He explained that as soon as you raise the front end loader, say if you are putting logs on a trailer, the logs will not roll off the lower fork unless the lower jaw is as far down as it can go. I think Tractor Works may have had better results had he made this one change. Also, three cabins said it worked better with the center jaw accessory. Hope this helps.
@@DougAlesUSA ...but the BC4200 is about $2000, and it is 283 lbs EVEN WITHOUT the center jaw accessory. ....and you can't dump on a high pile. I find it to be a horrible compromise.
Be careful when listening to reviews by dealers trying to sell product (even if they are my friends online). I do not think GWT did the viewers a service when showing and discussing these two options. Yes, it will generate some sales for him, but money is not worth it to us.
We made a decision long ago to only recommend products we personally believe are effective, and a good value (not necessarily cheap, but a useful value).
Having said all of this, if you think the WorkSaver electric grapple, or the BC4200 thingy is right for you, go get it. Who knows, it might be perfect for you.
When is your next video? :D Keep it up! Would you like to be TH-cam friends? :]
Tim I like the cake. All you needed is a cheeseburger with it.
So many options you just don't know what to pick
I suppose I should try to get a sample for all the options.
That 57 inch grapple is ridiculously over priced.
