Video – Austin Wilkinson starts his purple reign…

Owner/Operator goes solo with new Northerntrack Selector Grapple.

It takes a brave man to start his own business. And it takes an even braver one to do so in the midst of the worst recession in living memory.

So hats off to owner/operator Austin Wilkinson who has just taken the plunge and gone solo armed with a Komatsu PC290 and a new NTSG20-HD selector grapple from Northerntrack decked out in a rather fetching purple livery.

Wilkinson says he put a lot of thought into his choice of attachment before opting for the versatile 2.5 tonne unit that, he says, offered the best combination of affordability and durability.

Austin Wilkinson (along with his new grapple) will be featured in the next edition of the Demolition magazine. But, in the meantime, check out this brand new video courtesy of Northerntrack and our video partners Django.
