@@JS-oy6nn ii have a 24 on her i also run a 32 I like to use the 24 when I fall

@@DeadWoodLogging6996 she’s and old girl. Still pulling!

There’s a short video on my channel

I love my machine. Fortunately I dint have very much steep terrain on the property

I turned down countless acres over the 28 years of cutting. Even with perhaps a better balanced machine I worked by myself and I just would not take the chances that some others will. The loggers on you tube who show themselves logging in other countries with the LKT 81 skidders are Crazy. Put that skidder in the search bar here if you have not already. Stay safe. And Take the Time to be Safe out there.@@allthingswood2001

I need lots of things. I have no problem doing thing the old way. What I would love to build is a grapple trailer that connects to the skidder I agree less dirt is better

I guess it looks that way in the video. The property hasn’t been commercially logged in 25 years. I wish o had time to thin out all the small stuff to help manage the forest. There is tons of wood left. I only take what I need to heat my house and the cottage. Maybe one day I’ll have time to manage the forest in the future

Thanks man 👍

Hi how’s it going

​@@allthingswood2001Cutting. It's fine. 🎉

Never said I was a professional!

Thanks much appreciated 😊

Thanks

I love being in my Forest

Sweet. It works great

It’s a willow tree Juan

It definitely has a distinctive smell

Thanks man I appreciate that. I love to make things work the way I want for little money

Hay Tom I posted a short video about my trailer thanks for the interest.

Thanks man. I was quite surprised how dry the forest was. I got my logs out just in time we are getting 40-50 mm of rain this weekend

Thank you very much for your reply. I did look up your video on woodland talks and found in one of the pic's the name of the place you bought the motor and controls thru E Bay. It was from PG Saw and Fabricating in British Columbia Canada. Im in Ontario Canada. I have already got a truck tarp motor and a PWM controller thru amazon and am trying to do it a little cheaper than what you paid. I see you use a potentiometer for speed control that is what the PWM will do for me. Your set up confirms what I'm doing will work for me for under $400. thanks again. I enjoy your videos. If your interested I will send you what I have done when finished and tested.

@@georgemay-iq1id your welcome definitely send me a video of you finished setup I love seeing what people come up with. Have you need the guy building power head units. It’s called epic saw. I’m definitely inside it has a set works feature I was talking to him on Facebook yesterday

@@allthingswood2001 OK I will send you some pics when I finish it. I will be working on it very soon. Yes I was looking at the epic saw also, looks very interesting but I have already installed motorized up/down ( trailer electric jack power head ) and a dro digital scale, they both work very well. What are the prices of the epic saw; auto set would be very nice. It looks like you are also from Ontario, I'm between Napanee & Belleville. Where are you from, I see Amherst crane you can't be far away from me? I have looked at all your videos you are a talented guy; I'm a little old to be climbing trees anymore.

@@georgemay-iq1id I’m in Sutton. I like to keep busy. I’m always building or doing something

@@allthingswood2001 Thats a nice area near the lake. I will be in touch, I like to keep busy also but I am 70 so i don't last as long each day as I use to.

Hi George I’m busy this morning collecting logs I’ll get back to you later with some more information

I’ve always liked the simplicity of the butt and pass style I imagine I’ll build a saddle notch style one day

@@allthingswood2001 do you suppose there's benefits over one of the over the other or is it just a style preference?

There are some advantages. Less time consuming less shrinkage I’m sure they is more

​@@ftnwo868 but and pass last longer . Your not cutting in deep to heart of wood .like you do with saddle notch . Most but and pass doesn't cut into the wood at all . Just layering it on top of each other

Thanks a lot. I have always liked the look of butt and pass I want my corners to look seamless from the inside so I came up with the 2” notch idea. All my logs are 18’ I measured 16’2” to the notch and it gives me 16’ inside dimensions. Works out quite well

I had a subscriber ask how I did my corners

I’m running a grandberg mill I use 2x4x12” aluminum tube for my rails for the first cut. Works awesome. I’m replacing the clutch and drum on the 880. I have a 3120 as well
