This is off the topic of tractors, but I feel I am asking the right folks, and always get good advice here. I am having a difficult time deciding a path to take concerning the recent removal of a tree, and some damage caused on my property by a logger while harvesting timber on a neighbors property. The adjoining property was only recently purchased and the new owner had the property surveyed, then brought in a logger to harvest some of the larger trees. A few weeks ago I walked along the property line to discover that a 18" diameter tree had been removed from my side of the line, and his equipment had 'downed' some smaller trees on my side in the process. No fence existed here, but there was a survey flag not 6' away from the missing tree. I spoke to the logger in person, and he said that if he removed a tree from my property he would pay for it, and that the forester who marked the timber had marked the tree for removal (I had looked for marked timber on my side and never saw any prior to this). This was the last I heard from him, and he does not return my calls. I have not spoken to the landowner as I had hoped to keep him out of the picture, and it wasn't his fault in my mind. One part of me says let it go and forget it, and the other part of me says I should contact the land owner, and local law enforcement on the matter and see what they have to say. My thinking is that temptation got to him as this is in a remote area and figured no one would notice. It seemed strange that he almost immediately knew the exact tree I was referring to when I described the location to him.

As simple as a box plow appears, it can be rather challenging to make work correctly. In our sandy soils of Florida, traction is king. You can never have wide enough tires or heavy enough weights to get all the traction you want … unless you own a monster tractor. U
