If you look at the opening montage of our junkyard log splitter project video, you can see a shot (very brief) of the tiller being pulled behind an LT 1000. There is a YT channel called "Gilson Man". He owns a variety of Gilson machines. His stuff is all in good condition. I don't think the company has existed for 30 years or so.
Check back or subscribe for episode 3: It gets pulled behind a Craftsman LT 1000. This engine is less than 30 years old, so we expect it to last a good couple of hours.
