The author does like to from scratch, kzbin.infoUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. As another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us don’t have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we won’t be able to practise the full stack project, is still great.

Oh how I love those Ford tractors! A mid 60s 3000 diesel is what I learned on. Few things at that time could make a 12yr old boy happier. I loved bushogging and if given the opportunity today I would probably love it just as much as I did almost 50yrs ago. thanks for sharing,it brings back alot of happy memories!

A- Consider slowing down, B- Yanking a saw out of a pinch like that is going to tear the rubber mounts and/or pull the bar mount studs loose from the crankcase. Just use a wedge in the kerf and life will be easier. Love the drone footage from high above.

Great shots with all the angles. I’ve had great success when cutting down sweet gums immediately after the cut I paint the freshly cut stump with concentrated glyphosate. Tractor Supply brand. If you wait too long the stump will heal over and it won’t work. This works great on any freshly cut hardwood that would otherwise send up new growth. I keep an old paint brush, gloves and glyphosate in my utility box on the back of my tractor. Hang in there.
