I have seen kits for these but think $20.00+ for just a resin boiler and 2 reels is a bit drastic. Has anyone modelled one from scratch?

Here is an interesting brochure.

On page 10 a 'Log Skidder' is listed under Spectrum, but just isn't here on the site. Any thoughts?

Thanks Loco Bill.
I'll be keeping an eye out for it, since I have 3 different spots in need of one, I really didn't relish scratchbuilding them.

Hi All:

This would be a good starting point for a Barnhart loader ( hint-hint ).
