Tree Harvesting 2018

[@Soniti1324]

You’ve got a world class Gilbert Gottfried impression in you, I can just *feel* it

Sadly this situation exposes the tremendous waste associated with government bureaucracies. The initial placement of the trees was totally inappropriate and lead to the problems that required the removal of all of the trees. Let's begin with the initial planting... and the problems associated with it. For this type of pine tree, the optimal density is 100 to 200 trees per acre. The planting that was used was well over this density. Planting with this excessive density has 3 potential problems. 1st was the obvious result of blight which will kill all of the trees. 2nd is insect infestation. And last is the tremendous fire hazard. (With most pine trees a density over 100 trees per acre creates a severe fire hazard that is impossible to extinguish because the fire progresses in the tree tops. Finally was the absurd amount of effort for a landowner to harvest the land that he/she owns. Why should the owner seek government approval to care for his/her property??? (This is an addition to the reality that government so-called "experts" were probably involved in the initial failure to plant with the proper density which caused the problem in the 1st place!)

Sadly, it's SO for the almighty dollar, these greedy mongers are destroying wild-life-homes among other fragile things.

[@austinvanderveer213]

Idk, I don't really see the owner of the place wanting to plant less trees and the government telling him "no, you have to throw more in there".

Shut up liberal

[@B3H3M0T]

Because land tax was expensive and wood was cheap.

Awesome video, I live in Hawaii, I do get to see this kind of thing . Thank you

[@WebflingerJoe]

Living around this stuff I wish I'd see more stuff like Hawaii 😂

[@phancyland9498]

AWSOME VIDEO .. LOVE IT . MACHINES AND OPERATORS MADE LOGGINGS LOOK EASY ..

[@makingithappen5178]

How can they get economy in felling, when they use so many different machines? Two are enough. A processor and a forwarder.

[@scottcurrie3934]

Awesome job did it all my life with a cable skidder and chain saw

[@makingithappen5178]

Why had they not thinned the forest planting?

[@Toonseskat]

A bit optimistic on the blade speed. Announcer said 6,000 rpm, more like 1,000-1,500 rpm.

[@harleywalls6356]

loved the video but i am seeing a few things that i would have done diffrent tho

[@LabTech41]

A word of warning: if you decide to play a drinking game where you take a shot every time the narrator says the word 'bunches', you WILL die unless you're full-blooded Russian or Irish.

[@coocookachoo2806]

15:00 you can see in the sky what actually killed the trees

[@shawnevans58]

They have top quality equipment until the loader shows up, ive never seen a loader mounted on a truck before. All i ever seen was mounted to a trailer or simply on the ground on tracks.

[@GreatLakesLogger]

Very common in my area

[@Nartacahndeso]

Hi.. I'm Narta from Indonesia, I'm also a woodcutter but the tree in Indonesia is small, the tree I cut is the sengon tree. Are there sengon trees in your area? 🙏

[@GreatLakesLogger]

Never heard of them.

[@Quasimoto_1]

What lovely machine

[@christopherlovelock9104]

Personally I would go for a 'TigerCat' Feller Buncher, - I always think the JD copy is the 'Poor Mans' version, - although neither are cheap.

[@oldtimerf7602]

Ok. It's called logging, or timber harvesting. Not lumbering. That term went out 75 years ago. The saw cuts while the arms grab a split second after the cut is started. The blade spins at roughly 1,000 revolutions per minute, not 6,000.

[@kalmurphy5254]

What people don't understand the old growth has to be cut because of the high danger of forest fire s that can destroy a large amount of timber so replant is better of all

[@leemontoya8028]

This was a well put together video!

[@BakoelGendoel]

Excellent upload. Full watched and have a wonderful day......

[@garygilbert3302]

This narrator must think this is a bed time story from the way he talks. Hey man wake up this not wini the poo 🤐🤔

[@dellybeanz]

Lol I kinda like it 🙂

[@robertfinch9082]

The specified saw blade speed ranges between 1150 to 1250. It'd be according to manufacture specs.

[@WebflingerJoe]

What spins the blade? Is it pneumatic or electric orrr? Lol such cool stuff.

If that buncher operator used better timing when dropping those trees he wouldn't keep butt sniping his piles.

[@oldtimerf7602]

Planting red pine is like planting poverty. It's damn near worthless to the landowner. Better off planting poplar. Grows 3x faster and is worth about the same.

[@ponsseguy]

Depends where you are. Mature red pine stumpage is going for $40-55 a ton in WI and even higher. Saw a sale go for $66 a ton just today.

[@toddjacks8288]

Awesome video brother

[@garygilbert3302]

Were did this narrator come from ? This is not a kids bed time story. Please shut this guy up for god sakes. I am going to through up accuse me.

[@dellybeanz]

Be nice...he's providing really good footage & info. He didn't have to & it's free to us. Just mute it & use subtitles if you don't like. No need to be rude

[@brendanvivian877]

Love it bro

[@petessite]

they cant seem to make there minds up about the blade speed , one says 120000 an then its gone down to 6000 , i reckon its more like 1200------2000, revs ye !!!

[@tomm3417]

The first grade teacher: (should say "See the duck, See the dog")...number one: chains on skidder tires do not stop tires from being damaged. Number two: A tiger cat 234 will save a lot of time taking limbs off trees, cut the tops off, cut the trees to a certain length, weigh the load and load a trailer at the same time. Total waste of time doing this procedure the way it is presented in this presentation.

Is the narrator's intended audience 2nd grade special ed? Perhaps he should do story book time at his local library.

[@benfalsetto8997]

I love watching the machines, but the commentary is the worst I’ve ever heard, how many times can you tell me the same thing? I feel stupider having listen to this guy for the whole video. Edit: I wrote the above comment before I finished the video, the way the commentator wraps up the video makes me think a second grader wrote the entire script.

For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. (Romans 10:13) Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. (Isaiah 55:7) When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
