Deere 450E dozer logging.

[@Paw95]

I have a 450C with the winch. It's old but it works really good. Used it to log my land last year.

[@toddzerbe8559]

Nice dozer I log in northwest ohio with a deere 450c crawler loader winch with arch nice machine for tight short hauls like your videos keep it up

[@andrewmitchell9967]

Great little dozer Dan! Your dad does a great job running it! They are nice to have! Great video Dan!

[@turnerloggingllc]

Thank you so much for always watching, Andrew!! 🙏🙏🙏

[@roblong6518]

Awesome crawler. Makes me want my 450 back. Good to see your dad putting the dozer through its paces. 👍

I noticed your walnut has a bunch of sapwood. Ours only has about a half inch unless it grew in a field. Crazy how its different in different places.

[@johnnyholland8765]

Don't matter how old you are boys still love their toys... That is one slick little 450. I drove one for a farmer working drain tile installation in the late seventies but can't remember how old it was. Think it was a C. Handy machines to have around.

[@turnerloggingllc]

Thank you very much for watching, Johnny!!

[@larryspencer4143]

I have a 550 g Lt with a arch and winch and full forestry package. I would still rather use my timberjack 240A. We skid with the dozer as last resort its really hard on tracks and plus I hate cleaning the tracks everyday. Keep up the good work I enjoy watching ur videos.

[@turnerloggingllc]

The dozer is definitely a specialty tool, I wouldn't give up our skidders to exclusively drag logs with it, but its definitely handy in mud or steer terrain. Thank you so much for watching, Larry!!

[@danielmoulton4117]

If you like it with no winch, you'd love it with one. They're thrifty, and productive. Even when you're able to use the skidder, you can bunch with the dozer and keep the skidder moving.

[@Thomas-xs9iu]

Dan The Dozer looks really good. Hope a winch deal works out.Dad looked good running the dozer.I bet it brought back alot of memories for him. You two really area Team.Good luck looking at the new tracks of timber. Thomas Long Island

Love that 450E. We’ve got a 555G WT that we dearly love. New subscriber to your page. Really enjoy it. Thanks for sharing. Love all the John Deere equipment y’all own/operate🤙🏽🇺🇸

[@aldredske6197]

Hi Dan!!😀😀 That's a really nice 450 !! A winch and an arch would turn that into a great logging machine. Not too big but not too small. Sounds like winter is coming with a vengeance next week. They are calling for wind chill temperatures around - 35 degrees on the weekend and the first of next week. Take care my friend!!😀😀 Logger Al

[@turnerloggingllc]

You guys up north are just tough loggers Al!! I couldn't imagine working all winter in those kind of conditions!! Thank you so much for always watching, sir!!! 🙏🙏🙏

[@dmalloy96]

My dad and uncle used to pull firewood out with a little dozer half that big it didn’t even have a blade great to see y’all using the dozer. You will have to get some cages on the back and sides

[@turnerloggingllc]

Thank you for always watching, David!! 🙏🙏🙏

[@davidbulich1254]

Used to log with a dozer before I got skidders, the only drawback was bucking threw the mud, did alot of sharpening lol

[@turnerloggingllc]

Yes sir, thats the worst part of it for sure! Thank you very much for watching, David!!

[@nicklambing9268]

I would sure like to have that little machine with the six way blade here on the farm. As you said, having a winch and possibly an arch might help to get the lead end of the logs out of the dirt. Proved it might have a place to keep moving logs when other options won't work, especially if it was possible to drag more than one log at a time and not have a second person walk out with each turn. That was a first, seeing Dad move logs rather than cut trees. A very nice machine most of us equipment lovers would love to have ourselves. Nick, North West Farmer

[@turnerloggingllc]

Well normally I think it would just be a one man show hooking and unhooking logs, but that thing can be a pain to jump on and off of, so it was just as quick for me to follow dad out so he didn't have to get off the machine. It would definitely be nice to pull two logs at a time. We can't thank you enough for always watching, Nick!!! 🙏🙏🙏

[@karl-egertdaskov6217]

i would love to move to usa from europe and come work the woods for you i already do logging with our way but never really skidded trees commercially just with my own little tractor and a grapple but would love that job i might try to get out of here and to there in few years here everyone wants alot of work done in no time and little pay

[@billmcmillen2307]

Thank you for posting about logging to those of us who have interest in it.

[@turnerloggingllc]

Thank you for always watching, Bill!! 🙏🙏🙏

[@w056007568]

A most impressive performance from that machine and the chief operator. It is clear that it can extract logs and work timber in difficult circumstances especially where the soil is really wet. It also may offer further opportunities should you come across them of comfortably felling and extracting on slopes or other awkward circumstances. I can clearly see where a winch would improve extraction rates by pulling two logs or perhaps more at a time and I bet it only sips fuel as well! I was thinking also that a day on the dozer will likely be easier physically for your Dad rather than felling and bucking trees all day long - I'm amazed how well he copes as it is knowing that he is well over "normal" retirement age..

[@turnerloggingllc]

It always makes me happy to see him on a machine, he loves running that little dozer. I'm looking forward to putting in on a job in the bluffs of the Missouri River in the near future, it will definitely shine in the steep ground as well as the mud. We can't thank you enough for always watching, Dan!! 🙏🙏🙏

[@rugerfarming2529]

i used to cut hedge post for guys when i was in high school for money. that is a good way to learn how to pinch a saw bar. i think i pinch saw bars more than cutting post. things you remember.

Definitely a beautiful dozer, I would like to see how you scale timber . Most likely it's the same way I do it . I would bet people will enjoy it. Great video

[@dalew.6321]

I was using a little case dozer the other day to skid with. Went for my third tree and exhaust broke off manifold. It was slow but consistent. Using big tractor while waiting for repairs.

[@turnerloggingllc]

That sounds about like my kind of luck! I'm better off taking a new machine and breaking something on it before I ever take it to the woods! Thank you very much for watching, Dale!!

[@charlesmullins3238]

Check out Hoskins logging to see how we do it with 650s in eastern Kentucky…dads brother had one identical to yours and was the 1st machine I ever rode on. Got pictures of me as a little feller in it

[@2012honda102297]

Awesome to see that dozer work I’ve been trying to convince my dad we need one for a long time but he doesn’t agree lol

[@turnerloggingllc]

If you work in any wet or really steep ground at all, a dozer would definitely be a boost to your operation. It can definitely be hard to convince dads about new equipment ideas or investments, it's something I've dealt with all my life and continue to deal with at times with my dad. But usually once they see first hand how a machine will make work easier or fast, or in a dozer's case, help keep you working..they will be glad you have them! Thank you very much for always watching, Sawyer!! 🙏🙏🙏

[@2012honda102297]

@@turnerloggingllc it is very hard to convince dads I finally convinced him 2 years ago to get our first skid steer now trying for a dozer for when it gets wet I’m sure I’ll convince him eventually keep up the great work on your videos

[@joelshuman9243]

Those are good little dozers. There’s a lot of winches here in WV for sale all the time.

[@turnerloggingllc]

You guys probably use dozers more than skidders in that part of the world!! I couldn't imagine working that steep ground like you guys do everyday! Thank you so much for watching, Joel!!

[@vastylebbq5203]

Hi Dan. I'm certain finding a winch for that dozer will be no problem. I'd start at your JD dealer and ask at the other dealers too. Ebay might be your friend. Honestly, it would not surprise me if someone did not offer up one here in the comments. Good luck.

What’s better than Dad enjoying himself. Dozer is amazing, looks like not much can slow it down. Good looking wood for it being so wet. How’s the new semi coming. Thanks for the video

[@turnerloggingllc]

That's what my main goal has always been since I started logging, to always be able to move wood no matter what the weather is throwing at us, this dozer is a key piece to that puzzle. We've been so busy lately I haven't had much of a chance to work on the Peterbilt, and I'm expecting a call any day now with the loader install being done on the Mack, then Brandon and I will start building the bed and headache rack. We can't thank you enough for always watching, Tom!!! 🙏🙏🙏

We used to use a 350 it worked great with a winch we got a 650 now it's more powerful but bigger there is a lot of spots the 350 or that 450 works best because of Size an weight.

After running this 450 a bit it definitely has me looking at dozers now, I think a 550 would be a great size for us. Thank you very much for always watching, Justin!! 🙏🙏🙏

Daniel, that was a good video. They used to log with dozens here in Maine. Mainly using John Deere, Oliver, or Cle-trac machines.

[@turnerloggingllc]

I never though about calling Nash! I'll definitely do that! I honestly expect a call any day that they will ha e the loader mounted on the truck, I had a few special requests on the mount and build so it's taking a little longer than normal. Thank you so much for always watching, Frank!! 🙏🙏🙏

Dan,do you do anything to the log after having to drag it through all that mud, prior to cutting it? If not I bet it must eat chains......😳

Yessir buddy, that dozer sure did the trick for those soft spots... at the end of the video you mentioned that you had 3 tracks of timber to look at... just a suggestion, maybe, if possible, you could nake some type of video on how you measure a timber track to give us an idea how it's done there.. great video...you be safe man

What kind of chains do you run on your saws? Thanks

[@turnerloggingllc]

We always run Stihl chain, I run a couple different configurations, but use a lot of RS36 chain in dirty timber. I like round top chain for boring out Walnut, it seems to be a little smoother. All my chains are in a 3/8 size, where Dad prefers .404 round top in a full skip on his saws. Thank you very much for watching, Mike!
