Using equipment to get your own firewood, love doing that kind of work in the great outdoors. Then firing up the wood stove is very nice also. Thanks for you video.

[@glenkelley6048]

Your loader will handle much more that a bucket-full of firewood. Build a wooden extension onto it an d haul 3-4 times the volume per trip. Also----position that big bucket right next to the splitter to make it easier to load! I myself prefer to haul the logs to the splitter in the wood-yard, Handling the wood as little as possible is the goal.

[@umibuzosan2362]

All the "essentials" in a bucket. Nice.

Man, I felt so bad for you getting soaked but hey, the good Lord knows what's best so thank Him for the liquid sunshine. You have some grown bucks roaming around your place.

[@TheCalWillden]

You've got a lot of nice looking bucks! I always pick up does on my cameras, but not too many bucks.

[@holyearth61]

When you first got your Kubota, I warned you about things to look out for things that wear out or just break. Well I just looked at your bucket edge and its the typical Kubota built bucket. I ask Kubota, " what do you do when the edge wear out ", their answer was you cut it out and weld a new one in. I have come up with a better solution, which is, I put scraper blades bolted on to the bottom of the edge. If you go to your local Bob Cat dealer you can buy replacement blades for $60- $80. They are predrilled with 1/2 inch, counter sunk for plow bolts. You may have to cut to length, but you can get it to fit prefect. Just changed one on one of may tractors. Kubota bucket edge perfect. Old blade on there for 18 years. Not a bad way to keep your bucket in its integrity .

[@falllineridge]

That's a great idea. Do you bolt it right on to the existing Kubota edge?

[@holyearth61]

@@falllineridge Yes, Take two C- clamps, after you cut the blade to fit, just in side of your bucket. Tight fit. ( note, depending on the last predrilled holes in blade and where you had to cut it off to fit. you may have to drill a hole for a bolt. ) I had to on the last blade I bought. With the plow bolts buy the shortest ones that fit though and self tighting nuts. If you have any steal left, cut them into squares. Grind a point on them and weld them to the outside corners of the bucket. I fined that I get a lot of wear on the bucket here, from digging out rocks, To digging into crunched stone, also you can use it if you have to push a tree. It may take a little bit of time to prep, but its well worth it in the long run. Also it doesn't hurt to have a second pair of hands when mounting the blade to the underside of the bucket edge. Good luck, I will be watching to see when you do this and I hope this may help others that watch your channel.

[@dwightvarney6215]

Great video and a nice herd of deer.

[@steveadams99708]

It's impressive watching you throw those splits into the bucket, but when you get to be my age you will bring the bucket close enough you can just stack them in there! And then, as if you could read my mind, you did! LOL Love the trail cam pics!

"All kit essentials right there" Glock varmint control 👌

[@gregmislick1117]

On your future wish list - add a "materials bucket" for the Kubota - it's got a larger volume but that leads you to a caution for weight .. like scooping up a full bucket of wet sand might be too much for the lift arms, but dry sawdust - or Firewood... you are good to go!

[@bladewiper]

When you purchased your Kubota, did you consider ag tires ? I got mine used and it came with them. I really like them for the woods and deep mud and snow.

[@falllineridge]

I really wanted ag tires honestly, until I saw the benefits of the industrial tires. They're supposed to be better for someone who regularly lifts heavy loads with the bucket, like logs. They're supposedly thicker (just because of the wide treads), which helps protect against sharp stumps and stuff. They don't do as good in the traction department though. Overall I like them a lot.

[@1herbert100]

Hey Buddy, I heard you mention using roundup on your gardens and I think you should stop right away. I was using it in my backyard for years and I believe it killed three of my dogs. There are studies that show it stays in the ground and is taken up in food crops in later years. Don't go by what Monsanto or Bayer who makes it says, get independent studies. Great pictures of the deer, they reminded me of my first and last deer hunt. At 16 got my only deer and couldn't bring myself to shoot another one. That was almost 60 years ago. Time truly does fly. Great video, as always. God Bless.

[@jimwilloughby]

Wes, I have a feeling that the coming winter is going to be very snowy and bitterly cold. You might not get as much of the white ,flakey stuff in your neck of the woods, but if you haven't thought about laying in more firewood than usual, I would give it some serious thought. I hope you get the beep beep Jeep up and running soon. Like the blue beauty, I like that thing. My first set of wheels was a forerunner to it. The thing was as old as I was and served me well. As soon as you said "hopefully........." I knew you were going to get soaked. It came down pretty good ,pretty quick. Ha! Great footage from the wildlife cameras, but what is that thing hanging from the a-frame?

Thanks, Jim. That's a corn slinger. Slings out a couple handfuls of corn twice a day just to give the deer a snack.

Wow you got rained out :) . I notice how wonderful your lumber comes out from the saw mill almost like coming out of the plainer, which brings me to wander I have been watching this other channel and their lumber comes out like after you run on to a nail, but theirs is like that after installing a new sharp blade? I was just curious as to what they are doing wrong. they atr running a (LT 15 Wood Miser wide). I know something is wrong but not sure what. The channel is LLL Rustic designs? or maybe it is triple L rustic designs. if you wanted to go look, I am only asking for my own curiosity. You are one of the first Utube channels I started watching. anyway watch out for the rain, but it was still a good video.

[@ediez3963]

Just wondering about your garden and how the electric fence worked out? Enjoy the videos

[@falllineridge]

Electric fence kept the raccoons out of the mature corn great...however I don't think that was what was messing with the stalks. Probably some kind of a bug.

[@kenjett2434]

Been there done that as it reminds of many years ago when I depended on firewood as my main heat source herein the mountains. I didn't have my own farm to cut from but I worked for a oilfield company. We was always building well locations so that became my source for wood. Even better 8 got to use the company dozer on occasion to drag logs around where I could access and cut them up. The hard part back then they wasn't woodsplitters except a couple good pole axes a sledgehammer and the chainsaw for those tough pieces. To get through a really cold winter here took at least 10 to 12 full cords of wood or about 20 to 25 face cords for those who don't know the difference.

[@falllineridge]

Hey Ken! Been missing you. Glad to see you commenting again. I grew up splitting wood by hand...not the amount you're talking about...but I'm still thankful for the hydraulic splitter.

[@kenjett2434]

@@falllineridge yeah I watch all your videos Wes but lately I have slowed on comments been having major health issues. Still not sure of cause and getting tired of taking a drugstore of meds to treat symptoms. Think all my problems are tied to the tractor accident I told you about long time ago. I believe it's causing issues with my autonomic nervous system. But it's very rare for doctors to diagnose and requires special testing I am currently looking for a specialist that is less than 10 states away from me.

Hi Sir. In my last comment, I suggested you to listen to guitar music performed by "40 fingers". I don´t know if you had any chance to do so, but i´m flattered you rplied to me. Today, I´m gonna say: many people find out that living "off grid" is something very romantic, but I don´t know if the realized how much work it envolves; sometimes not even a sunday rest day. Several years ago, my family and I had a small farm and i know what it means living that life. I agree with Mr Willoughby about weather changing. If i were in your shoes, I´ll consider staking a hugge amout of fire wood. Speaking of "off grid", there is a chanell called "Life wonderfull off grid". They are a married couple with three little kids and they builded their own house in West Virginia. They managed also building a large solar pannel electrical suply, so they don´t depend on public energy. It´s worth to pay them a virtual visit. I send you, your family and friends my best wishes.
