Kenny In The Woodyard! WOOOOAHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yesss!

[@aldredske6197]

Good morning Chris and Kenny!!😀 Didn't take Kenny long to catch on to your tractor and the grapple. You guys did a great job working together. But I think that you and I do work a little smoother and faster when we work together. Take care my friends!!😀😀💚💚 Logger Al

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks Al, yup he did well, with all those years of running equipment he knows what to do, just like you!

[@grantsinclair4278]

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup we do well together.

[@Frank-db6oj]

Great job 👏 Thanks for sharing 👍

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks for watching!

[@waynetharp]

This was a solid 1/3 azzing operation today IMO!!👍👍 Very few people can Rock this shirt like Kenny does!🤘🤘 Have a great weekend and thanks for the video, Fellers!

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks! You too!

High production… right there

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, it works good!

[@jeanpomerleau8416]

great trailer

[@InTheWoodyard]

yup, thanks!

[@laurpaqu]

I've owned a Cord King m18-20 for 4 years now and it takes a while to get used to all the controls. Every year I get a little bit better at it. It was great to see Kenny this morning. Looks like you guys have fun together. Thanks for sharing.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, thanks for watching!

[@hondacrm306]

Good to see Ken in the woodyard working alongside yourself. Can’t beat teamwork, things happen much faster😎

[@InTheWoodyard]

You got that right! Thanks!

[@obiorah1]

Another Great Video with Ken helping you out in the wood yard that was enjoyable,

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks for watching!

[@BGWenterprises]

That video gives a good understanding of how loud the elevator is. Needs some black UHMW plastic in key spots. The 3 most slippery thing known to man. LOL. . Also shows the difference in rotten wood and sound wood going through the splitter.. and the obvious amount of junk with the more rotten wood.

[@InTheWoodyard]

The camera was right next to it and the elevator was wide open.

[@heavysnow8616]

Nice to see Kenny there with you, it’s nice to work with a buddy. I’m amazed at that processor, could sit and watch for hours! I have to get stacking! Enjoy the day!

[@InTheWoodyard]

You and me both! Thanks!

[@larryhronesz5693]

Nice to see kenny in the woodyard it looked like it went a lot lot fastrer you didnt have to stop and reload the deck,keep up the good work.

[@annmariekowalski7505]

Great times and more happy memories.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes it was!

[@allanulen3809]

Chris, you guys are crushing it. I can see where 3 or 4 guys could really produce a lot of wood. Two trailers and that processor would keep 2 guys busy stacking. Great video and GNI.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks yes more is better!

[@davidedwards3734]

Great to see Y'all back together!! Glad to see Kenny not intimidated by the bigger tractor!!🤣🤣🤣🤣 A lot of that wood looked Super dry, ready to sell!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks 👍

[@MrScuba1]

I just love seeing this processor running. I am still planning on taking taking my processor back to Michigan to get it refurbished in April or may would love to show up at your wood yard and do some wood with you and you could do a side by side comparison of 2 different firewood processors. After watching you on the Eastman processor I realiy like the idea of a seat hope they add that for me. I hope to see you in the spring of 2023 and split some wood I am retired now this is all I do now is wood and love it

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks and good luck with your machine!

[@eddiemortontapman7252]

So great to see the Carlson brothers in action !

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks!

[@ledzepcleo]

Chris I think you are doing a great job with the processor. It's one of those things I wish I could see if I could run. It would probably be a disaster, though. When logger Al stops by I think he has a great technique for cutting the cookies. He cuts the cookie, leaves the table up then opens the escape hatch, and lowers the table. That dude is amazing, seems like he's always doing at least two things at once.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup it is a cool machine to run!

[@michaeljheinz3336]

Ken looks at home operating the tractor.😆

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, he is a good operator.

[@karencary3312]

Teamwork produces a lot of firewood. Great job.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes it does that!

[@briannelson4493]

Chris does this mean chuckle is fired 😂 ken is stepping up nicely, and really taking hold. It’s good to see brothers work so well together. Have a blessed day and keep on cutting . Does this mean chuckle will have to turn in his in the wood yard badge stay tuned for another exciting episode 😵‍💫

[@InTheWoodyard]

Chuck is still here!

[@tomriblett2979]

glad to see you two and see the work getting done. GNI

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks Tom!

[@chewysfirewood1434]

Nice angle/view around the 39 minute mark where you can see the wood falling onto the conveyor as well as seeing the rest of the operation.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks, I thy to show everything.

[@jeanvaljohn3921]

Another aspect of y.t. video that you have mastered. The ratio of talking to subject coverage. A lot ! of woodyard video makers really really enjoy verbalizing . To the extent that it becomes monotonous and even arduous. But you Keep the ratio of yakking to video just right. I don't think that most woodyarders watch their own videos , post production. Brevity during Mic. time is their friend. That's where you Excell. That's one of the reasons we keep tuning in. Unless.of course a teaching moment or discovery comes up , Yeah then the mic. becomes essential or you are interviewing others. Have you been to broadcasting school? Thanks for doing the extra it takes to provide entertaining vids.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks for the kind words, no I have been a full time professional photographer for the last 40 years talking with people every day and 2 years+ of videos every day helps to! Thanks

[@billyhaddock5540]

Congrats ITW/Chris on getting the logs cut-up with Kenny's help. He is a Hoot as someone stated before..

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks for watching!

[@outdoorsinthe608]

Great video Chris! Nice to see the both of you rocking the processor👍👍

[@InTheWoodyard]

Glad you enjoyed it!

Yup, he is an old pro with equipment.

[@larryvankirk7423]

Nice video Chris and Kenny. Brotherhood processing went pretty smoothly. GNI

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes it was!

[@crazyman3157]

Geeat video Chris and Ken. Definitely great to see you guys working together again. If it could happen, it would be awesome to Logger Al with you guys all working. Might need a long conveyer for all the wood that would be getting done. Lol. Either way, great to see the MB22 running again. Until tomorrow, GNI

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, more pros would be nice!!

[@verajamieson8020]

Great job guys,lovely too see kenny,

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks!

[@gsmiley7700]

Got two observations…most of your round feeding problems into the ram shute is caused by the ram not being retracted all the way after a split And your last log feeding. Maybe put the table up, feed the last round onto the table, then drop the table for the round to drop straight. Hope it helps and love your channel. I’ll get back to my chair now.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Good tips, thanks for watching!

[@jlhaslip]

I agree that raising the table for that last piece might help feed the piece in flatter and reduce clogging the ram spot. ✔️ Worth trying.

[@marcmorse2496]

Y'all can rock out some fire wood all the best Kalamazoo Michigan

[@coreyriley7160]

G’morning Brothers. Nice to see Ken in The Woodyard. Nervous about him beating on the Kioti ? I would’ve been. Nice work boys. GoodNightIrene

[@InTheWoodyard]

Hello Corey, no, Ken is good with machines.

[@Opinionatedguy1989]

You should do this, you should do that. Do as we say, even though we don't know anything. 😂

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, I hear that a lot! But some people do know a lot!

[@thefirewooddoctor]

Did the math. For the cost of the Japa 365 Road version, can get a Range-Road EcoPro300 with live deck amd a mini-ex to load the logs and have money left over for a dump trailer. Seems like a good plan, but the Range-Road is a light-duty machine and can't force it like the 22MB processor, nor the yet to be picked up Wolfe Ridge 28C that I ordered. Best to stick with saws and the splitter for a while, but keep an eye on the goal of a processor!

[@InTheWoodyard]

Just keep cuttin'!

[@timanderson4743]

I think you should keep that shelf up for the last piece of the log then lower it down. The log will fall better into the trough

[@InTheWoodyard]

Do you have a Eastonmade processor?

[@timanderson4743]

@@InTheWoodyard no but I watched Joe from Ohio wood burner and he showed that’s what happened on his new processor and I thought it might work for you. But I’m sure you have already done that. Love the videos. The amount of work you do in a day is extraordinary

[@cut4fun50]

Looked for you guys at Expo on Thursday never did see ya. Maybe next time.

[@InTheWoodyard]

I could not go Thursday, I went Friday all day.

[@Alan_Hans__]

I'd be tempted to not doing any resplits with the processor. Because you hand stack all the wood and the Ultra is so fast I'd let all the bigger pieces go. The time spent on each resplit on the processor is probably a fair bit more than what it takes on the Ultra. I'm amazed at how well the rollers get logs to stand on their end :O

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, the rollers work great most of the time.

[@grabow3958]

OK someone has to say it, that processer seems to give widely varying split sizes and quality. It mutilates more wood than it produces in the correct size range. Seems like it is oversized for the wood you are running and geared more to boiler wood.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, it is for making wood fast and the right wedge needs to be on it, I am still learning about it.

[@Mainelywork]

🤘

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks!

[@dethmaul]

You need to zip tie a sliced pool noodle over that rail you always bend over so you can lever the wood without bruising up your hips lol

[@InTheWoodyard]

Maybe so!

[@iffykidmn8170]

Mid November😲Suppose to be prepping for Turkey 🦌week during that time.

[@waynetharp]

I have 3 Tom's and 2 Hens that eat at my bird feeders every morning at 7:45. I know their pattern, have them fattened up and doubt I bother with full camo and calls this year!

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, we will be!

[@InTheWoodyard]

You could probably hand catch them!

[@Frankzeien]

Nice to see Ken back, and I bet that’s the least amount of work he has done I. Some time, not sure if you call driving around work lol, and about what 5 minutes towards the end sounded like that machine was going to fall apart there sounded pretty bad.

[@waynetharp]

He cranked the out feed conveyor up to clear a log jamb. The noise was just the chain clattering at full speed. All is well...

[@Frankzeien]

@@waynetharp Ahhhh okay good to know, cause I was like hmmmm boom lol

[@waynetharp]

@@Frankzeien 👍👍

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, it was the conveyor wide open to finish getting the wood out.

[@InTheWoodyard]

yup!

[@thefirewooddoctor]

Have you foiled Kenny's plan to sneak the processor over to his woodyard under the cover of darkness.

[@InTheWoodyard]

No, we will do something this winter probably.

[@jlhaslip]

Hey Chris... you mentioned on a previous video that the bar chain on the processor doesn't need sharpening as often as your chainsaws. It it made of different steel? If so, can you get a replacement chain for you 592 made of the same stuff? Ps... say hi to the Bro for us. GNI 😎

[@InTheWoodyard]

I think so it is hard metal. no

[@brianrizzi6321]

Maybe if those little ones don’t split good on the processor you could just use the saw to cut them into rounds and leave the cookie door open so they drop in an ibc tote for splitting on your ultra.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Maybe so!

[@tonybunch543]

👍

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks

[@TakeNoneForTheTeam]

With a couple logs as runners under the live deck you could minimize the grapple from scraping your extremely expensive pavement.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup!

[@firewoodathome]

👍👍

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks Bill!

[@artofogre3555]

Chris At the 33 min mark, was the change in engine noise when the system started its DEF run? I thought the processor was going to walk away at the noise and shake it was doing.

[@waynetharp]

What you are hearing is when he speeds up the out feed conveyor to clear some backed up wood. It is the chains clattering at high speed and machine is just fine!👍

[@InTheWoodyard]

Wayne nailed it, that was just the conveyor

[@johncalliope197]

You could run your logs from smallest to biggest so you only have to raise the wedge as you split and never have to clear it to lower it.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, that might help!

[@hingstonia]

That's quite the shrapnel machine. Have you sharpened the Wedge yet? Would that make a difference?

[@InTheWoodyard]

No, not yet and yes probably.

[@outdoorswithbuck3217]

hey i was watching another video on a processer cant remeber what one it was but he had a ibc tote at the end of the cookie cut off. why dont you try and put on there to catch the cookies so you dont have to bend down and pick them up

[@InTheWoodyard]

It is on my to do list!

[@williamklein6649]

My question is for Kenny. Now that you tried the frost bite grapple how did you like it?

[@InTheWoodyard]

I am sure he liked it, he worked for the last 30 years using grapples on big equipment that could pick up a full cord of logs in one scoop.

[@samskeeter1]

All your equipment is orange is that your favorite colour?

[@InTheWoodyard]

HA! No, I prefer camo because it looks good with camo. HA!

YEA, I SAT AND WAITED FOR A FEW MINUTES TO SEE HOW THE PROCESSOR HANDELED THAT HUGE LOG BUT IT WAS SKIPPED OVER. WOULD THE MACHINE NOT HANDLE IT?
