Timber Stone Ranch
Canada
Registrace 30. 12. 2022
Timber Stone is a small 100 acre ranch that was abandoned since the 1950s. The name Timber Stone was derived from the geography of the land composed mainly of large 100 year old trees as well as large stones deposited by glaciers throughout the property.
Patrick and Jenny, two city slickers inspiring farmers with zero experience, along with their two boys, purchased the property in 2021 with the dream to one day rehabilitate the ranch to its original glory days while incorporating some modern conveniences.
The ultimate goal is to break away from the corporate world to enjoy a peaceful and self sustainable life on the ranch while taking care of the land, the animals and overall be in harmony with the surrounding nature.

DIY How to easily preserve wood at home...better than pressure treated lumber
This video shows how we preserve our wood using the burning method and then sealing with an oil based urethane coating. This is an ancient Japanese technique that is still being used today to preserve wood products instead of chemical pressure treating.

This video shows how to make our own maple sugar, also known as Canadian Sugar. We have many maple trees on our property for which we tap and harvest the maple syrup. From this we can make maple syrup which is a great healthier substitute to regular refined store bought sugar. To make maple sugar you will need store bought or self made maple sugar, pot, thermometer, egg beater and a coffee grin...

Maple Syrup Canadian Low Cost Hobby Evaporator Set Up Before First Boil
I like the idea, but did it save you any money after buying the sealer? Did you need to do the whole post, or just the part that goes in the ground? Its usually the point where the post meets the ground that rots. Cool method though, hope it works!
I think we saved quite a bit of money because these are rather large Timbers so they are expensive. The sealer is a large can that will be able to do the whole wood shed. The shed is 28 feet long by 6 feet wide and 7 feet tall. We did the whole thing because it looks really good honestly plus it should last for a long long time.
Thank you for showing how to naturally preserve the wood! It looks beautiful!
Thank you! Cheers!
Thank you for watching everyone, we hope you enjoy the video. Please let us know if you think this is a good idea and if you plan to utilize this method for your own projects around the house.
One other thing you did not mention is the amount of ash you need to clean out of it. I have a lot of wooded acres and a lot of downed trees that have been sitting for years. To clean up my land it will take a life time so I am planning on going conventional
Conventional works amazing honestly, especially if you have the free wood. Conventional will also never break.
Heated steering wheel would be nice
Yes that would be real nice.
Amazing it turns it into gas and the other commenters pressurization boiler is interesting too.
Nice video y'all , we love our Viking and have a few videos too , it's been super reliable for 5 years now
Definitely an excellent machine. Thank you kindly.
Starting laying period is 7 to 8months
Perfect, thank you kindly!
I cant count on you to be honest because i dont know you… You may own a yamaha dealer…we dont know…
If you see some of our other videos, we have a mixture of equipment which is most John Deere equipment. This side by side is the only piece of equipment from Yamaha. We try to get the best equipment we can afford and are definitely not brand loyal.
I'm also in Central Ontario - did you guys find you still went through 4 bush cords this winter with it being mild? Also - besides the regular weekly maintenance, have you found you have had to replace any parts on your boiler (fan, etc.)? Would also love to hear your thoughts on the Heatmaster as a brand. Thank you!
This year we went through 3 bush cords. In a colder winter we go through 4 to 5 cords. We have not had to replace anything yet. The dealer told me that the fan and pumps should last for about 5 years. Headmaster is good so far but I had an issue with their technical support. I had an issue staring the boiler the is year because the there was some creosote buildup in one of the fans and it was stuck. I called them and they did not call me back until 4 business days later. I did not like that very much especially if it was an urgent matter. We do have propane backup but was expecting better from customer service. It was actually the dealer that took my call right away and helped me diagnose the problem. The only reason why I chose headmaster really is because the dealer is about half hour away from me. I did not want to buy something that would be difficult to service if I had to or could not do something myself. I would recommend getting one that is closest to your house. From the research that I did before buying, they are all pretty much the same when it comes to the conventional ones, the gasifiers are a little bit different and headmaster is the only one that was EPA approved at the time. Let me know if you have any more questions, I am happy to help. Please check out our other boiler videos, you may find them helpful.
Informative Video! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you kindly! Glad you found it helpful.
I found a way to get FREE* propane. How? My secret, but I'll give you a clue. Think of buying only a car key and getting the car for free. * 20 pounds of liquid propane for $5.
That’s is great.
Beautiful chickens
Thank you!
that is INsane....if they tried all those taxes in Tennessee Trudeau would get (rightfully)burned at the stake
We are honestly in the process of looking for properties in the US. If Trudeau wins and Biden loses, that will be our sign to make the move.
@@timberstoneranch right on man. lots of nice remote places west of the mississippi river but the govt and native American tribes own about 30% of it and the west coastal states are no better then what you would be leaving. i live in east TN and it is really a nice mix of natural beauty with lakes and mountains but also lots of civilization. once you are sure you can meet any building codes which mostly aren't too bad you wouldn't get messed with. certainly not paying any ridiculous carbon taxes or any of that crap....only thing is you will need to pay for air conditioning electricity because it gets hot during the summers. you know, ive always considered myself an enviromentalist....meaning i take care of mother nature and respect her.... but most that refer to themselves as such are just nuts and need to be institutionalized. either way, good luck to us both. If Biden gets re elected im moving forward with my retirement plans to Southern Italy.
Thank you so much for the advice. I really really appreciate it. I really hope Trump will win and bring some sanity to America. Everything seems upside down and backwards now. It’s a very difficult choice between Trudeau and Biden. Italy is actually really nice place and their more recent government seems to be really reasonable. They have rejected all the craziness. We were considering Italy ourselves actually but to buy any sort of large plot of land is considerably expensive. Smaller country with much less land.
@@timberstoneranch me too my man. yeah you won't find big plots of land in italy but you will find really nice homes for much cheaper in southern italy on smaller plots in the countryside that are really laid back and quiet. its beautiful southern california-like weather and surrounded by the medd. sea. cost of living is low. population is shrinking quickly. but maybe that's not a bad thing? idk. italian folks are really nice and i love that. there are reasonable firearm rights and that along with the mafia(suprisingly) keep out invaders that would turn the culture upside down. its very easy for US and Canadians to get permanent visas. easiest one lets you live there as long as you can support yourself and not work( so that you aren't displacing employment opportunities for italians) im a pharmacist and i figure i will volunteer at a local pharmacy to help my italian vocabulary and to meet and donate my time to the locals. i would hate to give up on north america but i think we are probably both smart enough to have a plan B. ✌️
For sure, it is amazing to find like minded people now days. Most of them have been consumed by the woke media. I know that Italy has a decent gun culture and gun rights. The weather is amazing too in a way that you can grow food pretty much all heat. Also, I am not sure if you have heard about this but there are some rural towns that will even give you a free house as long as you put 50k into fixing it. Thanks again. Good luck to us all.
Maple Sugar is amazing! ❤
Thank you!
Very informative and excelent tip for keeping our hard earned money in our pockets 😊
Thank you, we are trying to be helpful.
I’ve been though it all when it comes to wood heat. Your much better off going with a good free standing wood stove. Them outside wood burners are no good. They are big wood hogs and take all your time. Very expensive to install. Take that money and put in a new chimney for that free standing stove. You can also cook on it. Free standing stoves have come a long way. They use 20% of the wood for the same size your heating.
A free standing stove is definitely a good choice. They have advantages of cooking as well as they work even without electricity.
Paid for itself in 4-5 years. Also, you are 100% right. I'm down 10 pounds this winter harvesting my fallen logs.
Yes it pays for itself rather quickly if you have the square footage. The exercise of harvesting trees is good for the body but in addition to that I find it very relaxing for the mind.
Tax on tax, you got to love it.😢
Yes it’s brutal!
That is ridiculous for the tax on propane to ve more that buying a full years worth if wood. The system is broken.
Agree.
Hi Everyone, thank you for watching the video. Please let us know you have any questions or comments and we will be happy to answer them.
Hi how's it going what light bar and mounts did you buy I would love to buy the same thing
Hello, everything is well. I hope you are doing well. The light bar we put on is a 52 inch curved light bar. I checked my Amazon account but it says product no longer available. However it did recommend a bunch of other similar ones. We got a curved on to fit for the machine better. We also used the brackets that it came with but instead of drilling into the frame we used large metal hose clamps from Home Depot for like 2 bucks each, they are solid. As far as the light bar, we paid about $100 bucks Canadian at the time just to give you an idea. I hope this helps. Enjoy!
I see gasification units for sale on FB all the time. I seldom see a traditional one on there. I've decided to go traditional.
That’s a good choice. Everyone I know that has a traditional boiler has had it for over 10 years with no issues whatsoever. I hope you enjoy.
Soap is not ideal
What would you recommend instead?
@@timberstoneranch hot water and vinegar. 50/50 mix. Let it soak, then scrub with a pad. Rinse thoroughly a couple or three times and you’re good to go. Cleans, disinfects and leaves no residue. All natural too. Soap has been known to leave hidden residue that can/will affect the taste and smell of finished syrup, according to veteran sappers.
Thank you kindly. I really appreciate it. We will definitely switch to vinegar.
Hate to tell you but the viking been around for 10yrs, your a little late on your review
Yes I know. New to us though.
I live in Northern New Brunswick 🇨🇦 and pay under $500 to do two long driveways. But did thought about buying my own tractor.
$500 is very reasonable. Here in Ontario they are charging 700 to 1000 per season for even a small subdivision driveway. One like ours is$2000. Also if you have other things that you can use the tractor for, it would be worth it. We use the tractor for everything on the property, would be lost without it.
@@timberstoneranch I retired to NB from Ontario, I also have neighbours with tractors and just bought a John Deere 350 for cutting 2 acres
@@larry-wellsI hear more and more people are doing that. NB is so beautiful.
Did you sell your Gator RSX850 for this? What do you like better about each? I have a Gator RSX860 and I’m thinking about selling it and getting this one. I love the Gator but it’s too loud and I would like more passenger space for the family. I was interested in your thoughts between the two machines. Are still glad that you got it? Thanks very much.
Hello, yes we have sold the gator RSX as it was more of a racing performance vehicle rather than dual purpose and utility. I agree that the gator is too loud and not safe for kids. We do love the Yamaha for its space and it’s performance. The price of the Yamaha too is much more attractive for what you get. The Yamaha was almost $7,000 cheaper as we have it configured. I would recommend you go look at one in detail and perhaps try one out. We still have other gators on the property but they are the 550 cross over model which is again more of a utility vehicle, as we do love our John Deere over here. I hope this helps and good luck.
You explained chicken math to me a while back. It is so true!
How many chickens do you have now?
@@timberstoneranch Started with 4 hens. One ended up being a rooster. Now we are up to 10 birds.
Very nice.
Hi Everyone, we hope you enjoy the video. If you have any questions or comments, please let us know and we will be happy to answer them.
Get a mirror (or even two) and mount them to the steel that protects the operator side of the front loader arm mounts. There are mounting packages available at some of the bigger online tractor guys, but you could also mount some unistrut or similar and mount the mirror to that at whatever height suits you. Still have to turn when you are in tight to stuff, but when driving long straights and gentle curves, you won't have to turn around.
Thank you, I will look into this.

The Kwik attachment is the easiest thing in the world. On my tractor it takes about an hour to take the snowblower off.
Yea very handy. Well worth the money.
I'm looking at buying one. Liked your review. Is it a nice riding machine when it comes to trail riding? It's going to be for me, my wife and 7 year old son.
It is a very nice riding machine. Much nicer than our John Deere. It’s a heavier machine which does make it smoother.
Awesome thanks!
Also another question, what brand is your light bar ?
Thank you...i love my vikingo..it is a very reliable machine..
Definitely is. Love it.
The biggest issue I have with the gassifiers is the the routine maintenance and components. I love that they burn less wood but in 14 yrs with an old school boiler I did one weld repair and dumped the ash pan in a pile once a week. Very low tech. It will be interesting to see what the longevity of the gassifiers are, because one of these days I'll likely have to replace mine.
We have only had it for 3 seasons now and there have been no issues so far thank god. It does come with a 10 year warranty similar to standard units from the same manufacturer if that is worth anything to you. You should watch my video comparing the gasification vs standard unit if you have time. It’s a really good one that has additional info.
Pull type blowers works really well unless you get 2+ plus drifts, I live the Rockies and have a MK Martin 68'' and a 86'' front blade.
Yes, the more I use this the more I wish I had a cab tractor with a pull type and a snow pusher box/blade.
I guess it kind of depends on where you live, but I can't believe people still burn wood. I switched from wood to burning anthracite coal about 5 years ago. It is a way better option
It all depends where you live. We don’t have such a thing available here is communist Canada.
@@timberstoneranch o harsh. Yeah wood is the way to go then
Owww. Communist Canada.
Hmmm, coal doesn't grow on trees where I'm from .
@@lokirussell5891 me neither I am about 400 miles from it. But it's still a better option for me.
I have a 72 inch blower on the back like yours and a 72 inch snow pusher on the front, the pusher on the front is a game changer, I can do any type of snow removal very easily 👍
You are the second person that has actually recommended that. The snow pusher makes it so there is now hand work around buildings at all. I am in the process of trying to source one out. Thank you.
What State are you living in?
We are in Ontario Canada. Similar weather to Michigan.
So cool! Abby would of loved the tiny egg lol
Thank you.
Nice vídeo!!! ❤❤❤
Thank you.
Great video! I have the same setup and love it(3025e w/ SB1164). After a year i broke down and added two rear remotes and converted the blower over to hydro chute deflector and rotation. It made a world of difference in the tight spaces where i have to move my snow. I also ended up putting a Curtis Cab on mine but that isnt for everyone. A little thing i've learned over the years that makes the rear blower a little easier on long days: I move my seat up a little and turn sideways in the seat and run the pedal with my left foot. Alot easier on the neck. Keep up the videos!
That is very interesting. I will try that method and see how it works. Thank you.
Wow very cool 👍👍👍
Thank you.
Wow I never sow different size eggs from same chickens
Thank you.
Cool to see the different size of eggs! 🥚🥚🥚
Thank you 🤗
Hi Everyone, we hope you enjoy the video. Please let us know if you have seen such eggs before and what you are finding inside once you crack them open.
Thinks 2,200 a year is too much. Goes out and spends 30,000 instead. Haha, I love it! I did the same thing!
You got it! Hahahahha:
His tractor shouldn’t depreciate $11,000 in five years or $22,000 in 10 years. At worst he breaks even and has enjoyed the use of his own tractor…you, me and he all made the right choices.
Love snow blowing videos. Just a comment. Get a front blade, make a quick pass down the driveway, windrow the snow, a second pass to blow it away. Only one slow trip required blowing to clear the drive.. I have a half mile driveway.
That’s a good idea. Thank you and Merry Christmas.
George Washington used to way out the yay and the nay when making important decisions. I think the gasification unit is the best choice for me.
He was a great man. I hope you found the video helpful to make your decision easier. Please check out our other videos regarding the boiler as we have a gasification unit as well and are happy so far.
Wow 25k buys a lot of propane, and as for ROI break even you are talking 10 years at best if nothing goes wrong. Also, not every building benefits from the lack of mess of an outdoor wood burner. The more I research these things the more I think a propane boiler with radian floor heating is the better option and I can heat my extra buildings with a wood burning stove. Thanks for the video.
They are expensive to begin with and they do come with really good warranty from different manufacturers, however they are definitely not good for everyone and every situation. Our propane bill was just under $6,000 a year to heat everything so this is working out for us so far. It also depends on propane price in different geographic locations. The rate in our area is over a dollar per litre once you include the carbon and other taxes. It would equal out to around $4/gallon in US.
@ironsales5669 • Yeah , but he said that he heats MULTIPLE buildings with it , not just his house , and can also heat the swimming pool water which gives you a extra month of swimming in the spring and a extra month in the Fall , Propane doesn't do that ! I have a inside Wood Furnace 150,000BTU and my heating bill is around $75 dollars . Not a month ! But for the entire Winter ! or around $7 to $10 per month
That is awesome. That is what you call real independence. Love it.
