Cops called him to say they found it a few weeks after it was stolen and ditched out in the woods. The cops were all saying to him that thief really ragged it out and they broke all the windows out of it and took all the seats out of it too. All that was done BEFORE they stole it. They actually threw out all the junk that was inside of it , so they really just cleaned the van out for him!! LOL The cops thought the damage was done after it was stolen.

Hey Andrew, When facing challenges, it sure is nice to have friends who help! I guess you already know this but I'll mention it in case some viewers don't. When pulling on a log and the but comes up against a tree or stump or whatever, all you have to do is back up and pull some slack in the steel choker or chain, then go to the log and spin your tow line in the opposite direction you want the log to spin. I sometimes put 10 wraps or so on the log so it spins off many of the branches in the first few feet. Works like a charm! Cheers from Canada.

Great machine to have in your arsenal! Love the drone shots and music. Thanks for sharing!

[@discoverykai1547]

This was my father's job in the past. And now I am also recording similar videos on my channel. They may be interesting videos for you

[@davidmunro1469]

Thanks for sharing . I always enjoy your videos. The pup is a good helper.

[@artemartem1134]

Thanks for all you do for us Andrew with your content. Helps keep me sane in this crazy world. be safe!

[@uclearwhale]

Definitely your coolest machine, the new apprentice is lucky to have such an awesome job getting to play around with all your toys and soak up your knowledge first hand

[@cmo6588]

Nice video .. you have a slice of Heaven with the view of the New place .. grew up working on a farm and gained knowledge of keeping things running .. it is nice to see your efforts that you have collected … reminds me of my younger years . Keep the videos flowing and hope you haven’t gotten too much snow this winter…

That blue trailer just looks like a pleasure to use every time I see you moving equipment with it.

Honestly - The girl seems to be the best helper Andrew has had to date.

This channel is so entertaining and it also reminds me of how easy my life really is. As for the lady in the video, I don't know who she is, but her willingness to jump in and help with your projects makes me wish I knew her. As a friend of course, my wife gets mad when I suggest dating someone.

[@keithhill9138]

Your something else Andrew! I can hardly believe you removed that cylinder in the conditions that you had to work in. I’m always amazed that you have one more peace of equipment (Toys) to help yourself through these difficult situations. My hat is off to you and your perseverance!!!!!!!!!!

[@harryyoung7076]

I just love watching your repairs. My life before my hip's gave out. Where I live, skidders and pulp porters are a way of life. Even your water dog is a native of my province. But what you have to watch, is that they get comfortable around heavy equipment and before you know it, they are in under the wheels. So make sure you know were he is at all times, and drive him away until he learns the exclusion zone.

[@mikeseguin6443]

I used to look after 14 skidders in my younger days as a HD mechanic.If something could go wrong it always happened on the coldest and worst weather there was.Takes a lot of money to keep things running.Never a dull moment.And 25 power saws.

[@jtparker4978]

Cody's endurance to run is mind boggling 😊

[@michelchartrand7257]

Yes ,dogs can be very endurant,I had a dog team (7 dogs) they would run for hours on end,and I would be riding that sleigh most of the time,they are indeed quiet amazing.

Me: I would love a machine like that! *sees repair bill* Me: I have no need for a machine like that.

thank you for creating your channel and videos....gives insights to the real pain in the ass it is to run machines and work in the woods. God Bless the boys who work in the woods. They sure don't have it easy.

[@SkillCollectors]

You gave me the confidence to buy vacant land and an old skip loader and dozer to work it. I am an auto technician by trade but these machines might as well had been space ships until I started watching your videos. Thank you for making quality content, I owe you one.

[@ianmackay4096]

Time to build a nice blue stone fire pit and BBQ on that viewpoint. Add some solar, then some heat tapes in front of the container doors. Can't wait to see the logs put into fire wood. That snow cat would make that hill climb a piece of cake. Love these vids. Keep em coming. Thanks

wow - the Kawasaki going through the snow up the mountainside with all that weight aboard - and Cody trying to bite it was awesome - it truly earned it's worth right there....that engine screamed away at full revs for all it was worth but it did the job admirably - what a great vid this is!

I can surely speak for all Andrew's subscribers ...we are subscribed to the best channel on KZbin. Good clean family viewing content right there. And all that good work ethics that goes along with it. And how knowledgeable you are around engines. Look there are some other good stuff out there to watch but like I said before and I will say it again....from all my 60 odd channels I have subscribed to.....if I have to unsubscribed from them....Andrew Camarata would be the only channel left.

Hey Andrew, Awesome video as per usual. Recently subscribed to your channel and your videos are absolutely amazing. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe.

[@fafnirchaos0711]

Hey Andrew: if your doing a lot of outdoor winter repairs you should get a blast heater with tubes and tarps (I forget the name of it) that way you can work on your equipment on site and would only need to warm it up for a few hours. Beats chipping away at frozen dirt and ice (plus your warm while working)

[@bettyolis6228]

Always amazed at the huge machines you own.

[@gary-gilbert]

That woman is Strong, and looks to be a hard worker. You need to keep her around.

[@TheOldaz1]

Nice repair considering the weather, bit too cold for this old man. Thanks for sharing.

[@johnpyle8027]

I have a friend that had an incident like you spoke of with that seat belt. He had a strap off a sun umbrella snap and stuck into the tractor tire and twisted him like a bread tie. It broke his back and paralyzed him. Back in the 80s. My dog did the same thing with shovels and pull starting ANYTHING. I think he thought I was fighting something. Buried him January 10th this year. I like the new girl! She's pretty, helpful as can be and she seems to be able to operate about anything. You should keep her! ;o)

[@spencerweldon8116]

Great videos man! I really appreciate the length and format you follow. Solid video once again!
