[QUOTE="jbc, post: 549, member: 49"] I have used my grapple about 15 hrs. It is holding up very well. Mine is built alot heavier than the Loflin grapple, I have not noticed any cracks or bends. The spacers are not pipe on mine, they are made of square stock. It does dig into the soil if you are not careful. Also the tines are supported by triangular braces, these tend to collect soil as well. I have found that shaking the grapple a few times will get rid of most dirt. I have found that the grapple is invaluble in cleaning up debris. I can move a pile of construction debris in just a few minutes. Normally it would take over and hour of manual labor to move the same size pile into a roll off box. Most of the time I am moving scrap plywood, drywall, and 2x4's. It is amazing how much stuff that I can grab in one load. I have also moved a bunch of pine stumps and logs. It handles these with no problem. Only small things like 1 limb or a small sapling are difficult to handle. [/QUOTE]
