You know Marty loves that log puller - he painted it! I think the reason a lot of people love your channel is your resourcefulness, the origin of that word being "resource." If more of us knew how to do more with less, we citizens of this planet would be in much better shape. Living in Southern California and participating in the high level of consumption and the low level of resourcefulness, makes me sad that most of us are going in the wrong direction.

It's not even funny anymore, how the ones really wanting us all to consume less, Californian influencers & lobbyists, teens with no life experience etc, and with ppl in Hollywood just influences us all by default backing them up, are the ones consuming the most. Their trainyards are literal dumps, absolute dumps. They aren't even schooled properly, they ran away as teens before finishing schooling or became complacent, think Asia and Scandinavia are countries on their own, mistake Sweden for Norway, etc. I point that out then they act as if it's no biggie at all, until I knowingly mistake Texas for California (the two states couldn't be any different), result never fails: They go absolutely berserk.

Nice log arch!:) I grew up, and survived split rim wheels. About two years ago I converted my IH flatbed to 22.5" Dayton wheels. I broke down the 20" splits for scrap and found one of them was 60% rusted completely through under the boot. Scary! Those were inflated to 100 psi. A family friend nearly lost a leg to a split rim . Thanks for the great videos!😊

It did look a bit precarious before. Your snow-white pup is so wonderfully curious and happy looking. Superior job of felling that tree. You got a lot of amazing lumber out of it, too. All-in-all a very informative and entertaining video. Thanks very much.

Nice to see the pup helping out ! Yes I agree split ring rims are not the safest bit of kit , I grew up in Western Canada on a farm in the late 60’s they were popular on farm trucks and every year there were injuries we heard about! The arch looks good and will be a big hand at skidding logs to the mill!

It just occurred to me that the way the tires are welded on had been done on purpose. This way the arch is centering itself in the track, it's load transfer across the axles might be better and manouverability, particularly in tight turns, might be better than with traditional mounting.

Hello Marty, thank you for the video. I think you need to line those tires up because if you watch it while it's working you can see the tractor is working harder because the wheels are trying to go make the arch killing several directions at once and while the tractor is not struggling I think it would be happier if the wheels both went in the same direction. As always I enjoy your videos I look forward to the next one and thank you for just doing what you do! Best regards Bob from Virginia USA Ps, I love your Sawmill! The chaindrive works like a charm!

Nice indeed to get an arch. Haven't seen one with a moving hook but as soon as I saw it, said "Oh that's a right fine idea for sure." The ones I've seen have used a pulley system to lift and a separate chain for the drag portion. A few 'advanced' ones used again a pulley with a chocker or log tongs on a long winch cable to get a log that was out of reach of the tractor and pull it over to the arch for lift and tote. Those type were more often found in the Pacific northwest for use with cable tractors and dozers. Most had solid wheels, few used tracks for softer ground. Large low pressure aviation/agriculture tires were common in the latter days of commercial log arch use. Thinking of wheels, saw the ones on the arch are split ring. While I've no doubt that you know your way around them. Never hurts to not get in a rush when servicing those, nothing will ruin a day faster than a locking split ring not being seated properly. Except maybe a 5° two piece rim, those are scary. Finally, dealing with bark, I'd look into a peeling spud to strip off bark from a log. If you've never heard of a peeling spud, it's basically a curved chisel with a long handle for leverage and to keep from needing to lean over. Work it under a bark edge and just peel the bark right off from the wood by staying in the thin strip of pithy stuff just under the bark with the spud tip.

@@MartyT Cool beans indeed, I used to be surprised when I'd mention a spud and folks would look at me like I'd suddenly grown a second head. Others just laughed and insisted I made it up. I'm now more delighted to mention one and the person I'm talking to knows just what I'm talking about. Also that's one gnarly saw mill, going to have to see the video on that beasty. Just has a steam/diesel punk vibe about it that's just every bit "I can't not look at it and not see something neat."
