Crime Scene Found While Destroying Trees with the Swing Boom Cutter!

[@shsronhill8961]

My dad passed away in 2011 and he would have been 100 this year. He would have loved to have equipment like that. You cleared in 45 minutes what it took him days to clear by hand but he loved his land and he only had 3 1/2 acres but it kept him busy keeping it mowed and gardens taken care of. I love watching you.

[@gingerpeters1383]

My Dad would have had that junk of equipment like that, too back in the 70's & 80's. He passed in 2009, but in his heyday as a "State Highway Department" heavy equipment operator, he woulda had a ball with this.

[@Marlenesgardens]

Sharron Hill, What a blessing to have your dad for that many years. You are so right about keeping busy as we age. Still feeling useful is what drives many seniors, especially when it’s something we love to do. My old Ukraine great aunts lived 102 and 2 others into late 90’s. They farmed as long as possible into their late 80’s moved into town and had huge gardens. They are the salt of the earth. Thank you for sharing.🇨🇦👩‍🌾

[@michaelwhite9432]

I own a lot of land and sometime's heavy equipment can do more damage than doing it by hand.

You have the BEST attitude. It is proof positive that if we live a life we love everything else is relative.

Daniel, I would like to praise you & DJ for your devotion to your family & ethics toward hard work on your homestead. I really enjoy watching both your video sites. Your daily dedication is commendable and even I can see your properties evolving into park like beauty while maintaining it's natural surroundings. God will continue His blessings due to living & walking His path everyday👣 PS- Ya gotta love the "farm chair" bucket 🤣😂🤣 One enabled me to drive the truck & pull out 5 horses in the trailer through an open field to the dirt road, then to the paved road to home🏡

[@beverlyhanlon8376]

Boy, both those cutters are great. I think the last one is just perfect for what you need. Stay safe Daniel.

[@beverlyhanlon8376]

Thanks. I think you are a very good person.

[@mattphillips1910]

Great video! I make my living running equipment like this. It looks like you've already figured it out, but here's a tip: You'll find that if you make the initial knockdown going forward, then tilt the front end down so it's just above the dirt and back drag it, you'll get a really nice finished product. Also keep in mind that if need be, it's perfectly okay to make a few passes in the same spot, back and forth, if you're trying to get to bare dirt. Have fun!

[@dugel3]

I think if I was young again I might consider getting into this line of work, especially with a forestry mulcher. I'm sure there's a fairly sizable up front cost for equipment, insurance, etc and quite a bit of maintenance expense on the equipment, but it seems like a service that would be in quite a bit of demand and something you could charge a pretty good rate for doing and make a decent income at.

[@debraalexander9535]

OK. I like this very much.I can see myself clearing down some brush in no time ,in comparison with a normal brush cutter. Good demonstration.

[@kalayne6713]

We use machines like this in Australia to save time, money and jobs. As a horticulturalist, the first time I saw the results of these machines, I was horrified. We were taught, and know from experience that a clean cut ensures fewer problems like die back. The trees were just ripped to pieces, I was close to tears knowing the trees were so damaged that they would probably not be able to regenerate. We still use these machines, talk about rape and pillage. And it's false economy, as the trees, once dead from this treatment, have to be cut down and are rarely replanted with appropriate trees for our fire prone landscape. Sometimes I wonder at the brains behind these stupid decisions. They are getting paid well to do a bad job. Senseless.

[@brendahogue5487]

What an awesome tool. The next box on the checklist is endurance and maintenance. Expensive lesson learned, learning curve.

[@lockedin60]

Your swinging arm cutter is a game changer. It looks like it can cut through a pasture in no time. A very good way to manage land. I could see someone having raw land and be able to whip it into shape to be used as a homestead.

[@ozarkfamilyhomestead]

(from Shawn) Your video not only demonstrated how handy a swing boom cutter is, but also a drone. What a great way to investigate something near your property without physically walking or driving to it. While all turned out okay with the truck, it is a good reminder why we should always have the means to protect ourselves readily available when out working on our property.

Daniel, you will want to use the disk mulcher for the cedar trees. It will give you much better results than the brush mower. Owned one for years and miss having one on our place. Tearing up the hydraulic lines is just OJT. It’s going to happen. It’s the only way you learn what not to do. Thanks for sharing your new toys with us.

Aside from the accident, the combination of that skid steer and that swing arm brush cutter is one heck of a combination. I for-see a lot of changes on your home property, and the 160 acres of the other property, it's going to look fantastic when you get full control and it all becomes muscle memory to operate it. I'm with the other poster, it's a grand day every time you post. Love you videos. Unlike some other channels, you don't make a whole video about ...well... nothing!
