Race against time! Bringing Logs to Sawmill- Ep33- Outsider Log Cabin

[@TheStelow]

God bless you all ,I love the work you all did togehter to build the cabin father & son !

[@larryjacobs5713]

Father and son one of the best combination in existence

[@susanadams290]

Love the music. Love the visual of the red tractor hard at work in the White snow. Hard work going on.

[@anndoig7993]

Lovely - look forward to your latest video.....Cheers to both of you.

[@yvindmathiassen7617]

Really nice to enjoy my lunch break with this episode :) Thank you.

[@johnhightower8737]

Excellent vid and narration!

[@ingmarhornke3009]

Thank You so much for all your great videos. I love it so much, seeing father and son working in harmony together. You are working on such a beatyful and adorable project. And I Love to know, that out loving father is with You and your family. Stay blessed! Greatings and hugs from Germany.

[@tienchi8165]

Your daily life are quite interesting, Shalom!

[@micheloderso]

Good to see you two in a good work condition.

[@jimrerko3415]

I love your channel and all of you guys. So relaxing to watch. Love that old tractor also....it works so hard...as all if you do. Thank you.

[@haroldcale4767]

I hope I get to see the finish cabin. Watched from 1 to now. love your know how and working with your dad and friends. Awesome stuff. My father and I had a small business painting inside and outside for a few good years, but I joined the Marines in 67 and discharged 73, my passed away in 70. Sure do miss my dad. Great to know you have yours still. Enjoy all your video's.

[@leifhietala8074]

An old Farmall, digging in and pulling hard. Makes me miss mine. Love your vids and the quiet, unhurried deliberate pace. It always looks like a great day in the woods, even when things don't go quite right.

[@Bensforest]

Love that sawmill. Keep bringing us these great videos. I’ll be watching.

[@patriciafix1646]

Love your show and would like to see more pictures with your dad

[@rebeccamondorff1793]

You and your dad make such a great team. Together you two can do almost anything. Very impressive! And your dad cracks me up as he plods through the snow like the energizer bunny. 😂 💕

[@TheOutsiderCabin]

Thanks Rebecca! I completely agree with you. ...My dad got a kick out of your comment by the way. lol :)

[@LostCaper]

You folks seem to have more snow then us here in eastern Canada. Our farm has no snow but up in the woods that was about 2 feet a couple of weeks ago. 3 days ago it was down to about 1 foot. We are getting heavy rain this week so I suspect this will go with the rest of it. Great movie and thanks for sharing.

[@wi11y1960]

Love your vids. The country feel is very refreshing. Looking forward to see how you will deal with the mudhole.

[@alfredrichter6236]

I think it is great that you do this together with your Dad. Someonething I would have liked to do.

[@kerridillon3120]

I really enjoy watching your father & son energy working together! Tranquil snowy woods...so calming! Bless you both!

[@coryboyd7958]

Thanks for sharing as always my friend. Love that wood mill! I might have to get one when I build my cottage here in the Florida woods. Bless you and your pop.

[@jeanettewaverly2590]

If it wasn't for Plan B, no one would ever get anything done. That's one tough ol' dad you got there!

[@senpintravelsandmore]

All your work with the log cabin building inspires me to work in my small yard, mowing, weeding, trimming trees in the mild weather of California. Keep it up so I can't complain anymore about doing yard work...lol. I am following your log cabin building series for sure!

[@TheOutsiderCabin]

Thank you! When doing a lot of little tasks, I push myself through by keeping the finished product in mind. For example: I'm not just digging in the mud, I'm building a bridge. And I'm not just wrestling logs, I'm building a log cabin. Perspective is everything. ...All the best!

[@senpintravelsandmore]

The Outsider I’ll be watching your next tasks for sure. Thank you for this motivational series.

[@spencersaurous4142]

Yeah! Another cabin update!!! Thanks! Hope your day is great!

[@TheOutsiderCabin]

Thanks Spencer! Same to you.

[@HoneyHollowHomestead]

That corduroy road will help you out a lot!

[@offgridgetawaycamp8034]

You and your father are doing a great job, I wish I had a tractor like that.

[@jameslane2667]

Good view like the song I've checked out some prices on myself thanks for the view enjoy your show James Kansas City Missouri

[@stephendavies923]

I just love this series. Well done to both you and your dad.

[@briankshaw8755]

Your tractor is a beast in the snow.. nice work on moving the big logs.. be safe.

[@Json219]

great job guys

[@MrSparks701]

Enjoyed and subscribed. Logging tongs would really help to avoid digging out those frozen logs then you can reattach. I have two sets and they are invaluable for this kind of stuff. Great camera work. Really enjoy my time in the woods with my father too.

[@dserp3907]

We always enjoy your work. The opening sequence on this one was sublime.

[@JimiJimi1000]

Love these updates!!!! 😁🌲

[@drkies]

Yeah, not only a set of chains...but remove any ruts before it freezes. Good job.

[@Downeastwaves]

You do a great job with your tractor! Thanks for sharing

[@RickBarkergoldclaimmaps]

I give your videos a like before even watching them. Great work and thank you for sharing...

[@ddd228]

I'm the same way!!!!

[@johnveglio4433]

Dig out the mud hole, fill it with limbs and small scraps of tree trimmings, then shovel the dirt back in to fill in empty spaces. Cover the whole thing with pine boughs, then larger limbs (about 4 or 5 inches in diameter), pack down with dirt then cover with more pine boughs. This should be a pretty good fix. Good luck and keep going. 👍👍👍👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 P S - pack down each layer as you fill in the hole. Add as many layers as needed. Cover with slabs from the saw mill.

[@tsuchang1]

Man, your videos are superb. Thanks for the entertainment.

[@TheOutsiderCabin]

Much appreciated!

[@venom4400]

Loved the idea of attaching the little tool box to the sled :)

[@TheOutsiderCabin]

Thanks!

[@brianspencer4220]

The Tractor is such an integral part of this whole venture that I believe the house should be called tractor lodge. Always of interest thanks Brian 77

[@JJKHaywood]

Old W-4 McCormick Dearing, Earning her keep. I like that mill!

[@MoosesGearGooReview]

Excellent winter shots.

[@jonpanzarella1221]

Outstanding, I look forward to see the next video!

[@TheOutsiderCabin]

Thanks for following along!

[@somethingclever9975]

Hey man! I just subscribed around an hour ago, and your videos are great for relieving stress. I spend a lot of time on this sanctuary forest behind my house on Long Island, and these videos remind me of so much when I was younger, like the tire swing I had! One way or another, keep up the good work, I’ll be watching!

[@donlatimer5114]

I have two suggestions for you; ( #1) put some hooks on either side of the toolbox to hang your chains or rope or straps on instead of putting them in the sled ; ( #2 ) to find an old car hood and used it to put the front end of the logs on it to keep them from digging in to the ground, they will pull a lot easier

[@wyrdwildman1689]

Music was a nice touch

[@tommyschauer3093]

PUT SOME TYPE OF SUPORT UNDER THE BOTTUM OF THE TOOL BOX, OTHERWISE THAT IS GOING TO BE A LOT OF WEIGHT ON THE BACK OF THAT BOX. I MADE A NICE SET OF CHAINES FOR MY 9N OUT OF BULK CHAINE AND QUICK LINKS. THEY WORK GOOD AND IT COST A LOT LESS THAN ONES FROM THE STORE.(I AM PUSHING A SNOW BLOWER WITH MY 9N AND IT NEEDS THE CHAINES) LOVE TO SEE YOU AN YOUR DAD BUILD. MY SON AND I DID SOMETHING LIKE THAT, AND IT WAS SOME OF THE BEST TIME WE HAD, SO REMEMBER THIES TIMES BEFORE YOU GET TOO BUSY TO HAVE THEM. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.

Eu gosto muito de ver vocês trabalhando, o desempenho e o carinho pelo que fazem. Parabéns por mais este video. Mais um like mercido pra você. Abraço forte...

[@BraxxJuventa]

Nice one! Thank you for sharing.

[@Sammy_316]

good stuff as always. Thanks!

[@jeffstrong4311]

Have you ever considered getting a team of Morgans? They can haul anything that tractor can and they don't get stuck in the mud. My Grandfather use to make a tidy sum from farmers who got their tractors stuck in the mud. His team could also pull a sled with up to 4 cord of firewood. And Granny used their exhaust in her garden.

[@ADSC2006]

Great video.

[@miraguedes9339]

Vendo seus vídeos anteriores,e ainda falta muito.vejo como seu pai foi tão presente na sua vida,um grande homem -pai amigo.e eu já o admirava. Me fez lembrar do meu irmão mas velho,ele era incrível,e ele morreu do mesmo jeito do seu pai, e só tinha 45 anos .um abraço amigo

[@paulgargan6134]

Great job,add a winch too

[@childersls]

You have enough scrap wood there to fill in that mud hole and have a "wooden bridge" across that mess.

[@glenngoodale1709]

first ..... Great Job - huge respect 👍

[@ClaireMarieH]

YESS! I've been watching this series since it came out.. I'm always excited to see what happens next! Can't wait to watch

[@TheOutsiderCabin]

Thanks Claire!

[@yanlap2183]

Nice sawmill 👍

[@anndoig7993]

Dealing with the extreme weather conditions of Canada. - interesting.

[@kipster-ll6po]

What are your thoughts about mounting that electric winch somewhere on the tractor?

[@earlrumble1692]

You might consider using the off-cuts from the mill to make a corduroy rod through the mudhole.

[@TheOutsiderCabin]

Yes I've been thinking the same thing. I've been saving all the scabs, and I want to incorporate them whenever I can. What's the old saying? ...Waste not, want not.

[@mikewaterhouse8510]

Yes that old tractor does a lot of work for you . and yes Chains would help but they can get get you in trouble faster aswell if you aren't totally paying attention

[@richardpope5417]

You might keep an eye out for a drag blade too, to mount on the back. I've seen them for sale, used, for as little as $400. If you can find one, it'll be helpful in cleaning up your rework road some.

[@crzy11000]

If you haul the logs to one side of the mud hole. Take the tractor accross and use a long chain to pull them accross the mud. Then you only cross the mud hole twice in a day with the tractor. You could winch them accrosss the hole also. The trtactor crossing multiple times seems to be the issue.

[@TheOutsiderCabin]

Great suggestion! We have used long chains and cables to haul logs across the mud hole before, just like you're proposing. The problem, in this case, is that even the trail leading to the mud hole had broken up to the point where it also became impassible. We wanted to winch them across, but we just couldn't get them there to even try.

[@mihkus]

Build or buy a chainsaw winch instead. Since I built mine, I can ride anything to anywhere. 2 gear planetary gearbox was 60 bucks, steel wirerope was 30 and chainsaw 480 new. Only problem is that you have 4 speeds... 2 on gearbox and you can double the cable with pulley block, you can add them infinitely. 8 tons of pulling power on slowest gear 40m/minute. Such tractors are a deathtrap in the woods, put at least a rollbar over your head. Once you build your winch, youl barely need that tractor.

[@crzy11000]

Mihkel -Could you make a video of your winch? Just show us how it is made and a demo of using it would be great.

[@mihkus]

crzy11000 Search for youtube: chainsaw winch, easy way is to buy a good quality truck winch thats motor is dead and put chainsaw sprocket in place of the motor shaft and weld up a frame for it. Anglegrinder and arc welder would be enough to build one. I have another one for long distance pulling, made it out of trash pretty much, will upload in few days

[@mihkus]

crzy11000 kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYq0fqeIqZxpqbs This one is for long distance pulling, fast but not very powerful, tractor got stuck behind a stump

[@gustafkoppfeldt2895]

Häftig traktor och häftiga traktor vägar

[@Tsiri09]

That's just amazing! What else are you planning to build? Perhaps a smokehouse to preserve game meat?

[@nanomaine]

A relatively easy solution, might be to make a corduroy road across the mud hole. I have a muddy area, and will create a corduroy road for it. Best of luck!

[@nanomaine]

LOL! Just noticed the vid, that you are already planning the corduroy road. I'm eager to see that job!

[@TheOutsiderCabin]

lol No problem. I'm eager to get it done! Thanks for following along.

[@tjcollins9318]

I like your sawmill is on a trailer. Did you buy the trailer part or did you build the trailer for it.

[@fishhateme14]

I'm interested to see the corduroy road construction.

[@raymonddubois7550]

Oh Boy, the number of times I got stuck even with chains. LOL!

[@PCPCRB]

Drop 6 inch blocks of scrap wood into the trenches and the mud hole. It will compress into the mud and provide really good support. I did it on a very deep mud hole going to my cabin and after repeating the process several times the mud hole has disappeared. I know you will be using logs later but the small chunks of wood will certainly get you out of a jam.

[@scottsutton7989]

Couple loads on your sled should do it just fine !!!

[@frederickhillegas2115]

Is it any possibility that you could go around it?

[@TheOutsiderCabin]

Unfortunately no.

[@showkiller2288]

Maybe build a small snow plow just so snow doesn’t fill up your roads to much, just a tip

[@scottsutton7989]

Chains will “not help much with mud” your better off laying down a bunch of sapling sized branches crossways they will push down into the mud and create a more rigid surface to cross !!! That area clearly will remain muddy and that’s the best solution buddy.

[@schymark8392]

Chains and a better trail...... definite consideration.

[@carltonbraxton5399]

why not weld up a front brush guard for the tractor with a bar for weights and space to put say a 9500lb winch as well? just a thought. we've done that for the boggy areas here in eastern NC

[@donaldhofman296]

On logs frozen in, I back up and bump it with the hitch! That breaks the ice hold on the log!

[@wyrdwildman1689]

What saw mill do you recommend?

[@dolphinboi-playmonsterranc9668]

Bringing saws to the log mill, I see.

[@CFC007]

Your videos are sweet bro

[@scottfuller5194]

What about mounting a winch and its steel cable to the front of the tractor......if it's bolted on, you can always take it Off and remount it on the rear of the tractor.....to pull out hard to get at logs, bundles of logs.....and then use a couple of bundles of small logs (called: "chespalling") to fill in the deep muddy parts across the road, then cross over the bundles with your tractor, military engineers have used that method for many, many years in swamps, mud, permafrost, ditches, trenches etc......and it appears you have lots and lots of small logs to employ......!

[@edwardseth1230]

While Sawing, GoPro was too close for the woodland mills machine to Vibrate...extensively. felt like i was watching a video from the 1980's more like VHS quality :), do make a sketch to what you want to do with your bridge and get a video for that.. perhaps you can get more input on the project. thankyou for the upload, stay safe.. GOD bless

[@cliffdunning9296]

Wondering how you get the logs on the sawmill?

[@TheOutsiderCabin]

Great question! I'll show you, in the next episode...

[@corieconn911]

you could try putting the branches you cut off the logs in the mud hole

[@mikebarbacovi9851]

Is the sawmill located at the cabin site? Like your videos but without the back story it’s difficult to jump in as a follower mid stream. What province are you in? Is this public land where you hade a cabin permit? Or privately owned land? Frame of reference on how deep in the woods you are would also be useful. In other words, how far away from your vehicle are you in terms of the trek into the woods to the cabin site?

[@TheOutsiderCabin]

All great questions Mike. The best way to catch up is to watch my "Log Cabin on a Budget" series... kzbin.info/www/bejne/n5XUm5SPfMR0ftk

[@skydiver6711]

Just wondering, is this cabin being built on land that you own or is it just public wilderness area?

[@JsHuWa-ne6is]

nice video

[@kipster-ll6po]

Are you able to warm even your hands by heat from the tractor engine?

[@barrypierce6425]

Luv it......

[@TheOutsiderCabin]

Thanks Barry!

[@vitorfernandes2406]

Where do you leave?

[@AlanaShuster]

Love your videos! BUT....what is written on the axe handle? Every tree on earth a .....?

[@TheOutsiderCabin]

...quill.

[@lucky9lives4me]

I need to drill a small hole in the toolbox so it don't fill up with water.

[@TheOutsiderCabin]

Good idea! I was thinking the same thing.

[@bigunone]

Had you thought about dumping your smaller tree limbs into the mud hole? Your going to need to add some support under the box that thin tin will tear out real fast.

[@Otto-W]

What would happen if you filled the mud hole with the bark you're pealing from the trees? I would take a lot of bark to help level the area and improve drainage but you have a lot of bark on hand with no other purpose.

[@PCPCRB]

Otto I have used waste wood cut in 6 inch junks. Works really well once it gets compressed into the mud. It was so effective I didn’t have to add the corduroy.

[@ashencrumbs]

Do you actually own the land you are working on in the videos?

[@reltcl1995]

Yes don't drive in same tracks over an over

[@rcchar]

Your trucker have a PTO? Maybe you could make a winch to winch the logs across.

[@a.paradis628]

Randy Charlton i

[@AndTheCorrectAnswerIs]

Why dont you get a winch mounted to that tractor and just pull the logs across that mud hole area? In the States, Harbor Freight has a 12,000 lb winch on sale for $299 USD. I'd think something like that would find many uses around your property.

[@mwjii]

how about throwing down branches over the mud bog? I enjoy your videos

[@diecaster1018]

Maybe if you were to lay down a bunch of small branches it would make a difference???
