I've recently done some welding work on a skid steer type mounted one. Machine was a terex pt110 forestry. The guy owns a small brush cutting an land clearing company. He also has a mulching head for a small kubota excavator he runs.

From what he told me his small ones are really only limited by its reach an pushing capacity. He can take down a tree but has to consider the direction for its fall. He can cut it several feet above ground an drop it in a direction by pushing forward, from there he will mulch it on the ground.

Don't know the exact cost but he said the all said an done it was about 200k. That did include one of the terex pt110f, gooseneck trailer, mulching head, grapple, brush cutter, grapple, root rake, bucket an I think that was all the attachments.
