Thompson Slope Packer

I saw this in the recent Construction Equipment Guide and I thought that it was a great idea. It sure beats wearing out the undercarriage on the dozers.

Re: Thompson Slope Packer

This is a great idea. It will save a lot of wear and tear, and more importantly "time". All of which will put more benjamins in your jeans.

Re: Thompson Slope Packer

Hey Rino;
Was that construction equipment guide an online one, or was it a booklet?
