I agree, the other one is wire rope/cable and does look neatly done, must have some kind of a pawl catch or something. The one on the 35 ton really sold me, and that piece they demonstrated was a tough one for sure! Neatly done, he must have changed the single spool open center valve to a 2 spool, plumbed it in to match up with the cylinder and just mounted it off the beam, which is drilled and tapped from the factory, for their log catcher tray offered as an extra on these. So you could add some more of those and make a strong cylinder mount off the web of the beam easily enough without welding. It does not seem complicated at all to add this kind of lift to one of these, and it does not take away from either position given the taller wedge. I just wonder if there was any issue of the speed of the lift, don't need a catapult LOL ! Perfect set up for difficult wood like the "Y" as they show and or twisted grain wood like Elm. Even Willow can bog mine down if I get a gnarly piece of it, which is surprising, but I processed a full F600 truck load of it a few years back.
