Mechanised harvesting demonstration

Date Added: 12 March 2013 Contributor: Norman Davidson Year of Photo: 1982 Picture No: 1688

The photograph is courtesy of the family of George Dey. George took many forestry photographs in his forestry career and many are now shown on this web site. Check under ‘Groups’ and George Dey Collection.

Unfortunately there was no information on the photographs of the three machines in the demo or on the location which has some very fine Dougals fir. This Bruunett is a processor only as the grab lifts trees already felled and places it on a bed where it is run through delimbing arms and cut into products. The saw is shown cutting off the log. This does not appear to be a FC owned machine.

Does anyone have more information on this machine and location?
