The simplest solutions are so often the best ones! Easy to use, effective, cheap and robust. What's not to love here? Take care and God Bless.

Ed you’re never to old to learn! Definitely gotta get some. Thanks for sharing👍TCT

I love all your helpful hints and ideas. Keep up the good work.

A good day's work Ed! Love the LogOX! So helpful on the lower back. Love your side-kick -LOL - Cheers!

Huh, Ed, I had no idea about that strap, glad you explained it, what a great tip. Thanks for posting!!

On a painted surface on a classic your tie down points may still rub thru painted surfaces.

Love that bike... and good to know about the twist, I always wondered why they did that.

Excellent video, thank you!

I use those to make attachment points on my trailer. The top rail is 2x2 tube and there are no places for strap hooks.

A problem many of us who own and transport sub-compact and compact tractors have is that the machines are not manufactured with adequate tie-down fixtures. Aftermarket shackles and D-rings can get expensive and tedious to install, but these straps can make securing to axles, loaders, and other accessible areas a breeze to secure to. They are also light weight and easy to transport.

Thanks Ed that's what I was planning on. With the lower frame for my front dirt/snow blade I lost my tie down spots.

Great video Ed. Thanks for sharing. Those straps also come in different lengths too. Great if you need to grip around the Rim of a Trike to transport. You need the longer strap for the spoked rims. Dan 😊

Great Tip and so Simple !

Good afternoon Ed, that was awesome 👍 what a great find, thanks for sharing. 👋😎👍 Ben

They are in town too. I leave them alone 😊

How bad did you torque the rear fender?

Nice Ed. I will be ordering some for my tractor tie down

great find, thanks for sharing

This is truly an OUTSTANDING Shout Out For A Marvelous and Very Useful Tool Cheers 😇👍🍻 ( THAT IS A SEXY BIKE 😎😎👍👍)

Love them, I’m ordering

Take my money!! Wow! I was today years old! Thank you! I'll be ordering some!

“Grapplelicious” Yeah Baby!

Ed, nice job with your setup. Some great wood to add to you pile to be seasoned. You should look into a 3 point hitch pallet fork setup for your 2601. You would be able to lift a full IBC tote of firewood on your 3 point hitch. There are a few guys with B2601's that had the same issue until they started lifting full totes on the rear of the tractor. Dan 😊

Once i saw the trench being dug i knew this was a fail. Sure it's out but not worth that effort.

A very productive day, Ed. Good job

Oak will take approx 3 years to season before burning. You're getting a great head start.

Great job, Ed. Are your ash trees dying? The ash borer killed them here in New Hampshire. I just had four taken down and had four other trees dropped as well. I like the Log Ox. I think I'll get one for my upcoming 8 tree limbing and bucking project.

Good video, I cut some medium rounds for overnight burns in my insert.

I know what kind of wonderful feeling you get working on your land. I live on a 88 acres land. 35 acres are hay field cut by my neighbor. The rest is wooded land with trails and a forestry plan... for me. Yep, reduced taxes! I can't believe I get taxes reduction on land, equipment / supplies to live my dream... Stay safe! As a "white collar" guy, I watched numerous CZcams disaster videos about cutting trees, so I gain some knowledge through other's bad experience. Thanks!

Slow and steady wins the race👍🏼

Ed, I couldn't help but notice the red bandanna, are you a member of the New Jersey Cluttered Crips? When making your face cut, face the direction of the fall, dog into the tree and pivot the saw until your handle bar or gunning sights are inline with where you want it to go, as long as the tree is balanced and the wood is good it will go where you want it. Keep your back cut above the apex of your face an inch or two for a strong hinge and cut it the same distance on both sides as you cut towards the face.

Poplar is fine to burn,we use it early in the season and again in spring. When its free use it!

I have the log ox awesome video. It’s a great tool. It saves your back.👍

Nice set up!!!

I love my Log-X. Christmas present though I tried to be surprised. 😉

Hi Ed! Excellent video, great editing, establishing shots, b roll, and commentary! Not to mention the hard work of cutting down, limbing and splitting the logs. Well done, thanks for taking us along. Maybe look into a Hydraulic Shim Kit, for up-ing the pressure, I'm sure it'll lift the ibc tote then!

In the summer heat, early in the day is definitely the time to work outside! Poplar is about junk as far as firewood is concerned. I’ve burned it, but it’s about the lowest BTU per cord hardwood species in the northeast. Like a sponge too. Very wet to start, then seems to take on water easily if exposed to weather. Rots fast too. I cut one this spring and just junked it in the woods. Decided it wasn’t worth it. As you were felling the tree, I noticed you made your first cut using the top of the bar. I try to avoid cutting like that because if the chain catches in the wood, it can actually thrust the saw back at you…fast. On the bottom of the bar, in the same situation the saw can get pulled away from the operator and the powerhead stop it against the trunk.

👀👀

Good job Ed 🤠🇺🇸

Maybe don't fill the tote all the way...try 75%

How're the bugs that deep in the woods...mosquitos so big here in Ontario they'll fly away with ya

Love it...great as always

Was that a real snake crawling by ?

Great Vid Ed. There is a way for you to lift a tote. I noticed Artillian offers a set of pallet forks that mount to a quick attach for the three point. The 2601 has enough lift capacity to lift a tote full of woodout back on the three point. Actually, you wont have to shuttle woodin the bucket and can save a step by taking the empty tote with you to the wood splitiing site, but a bucket full of wood would be a nice counter balance to the weight of the tote out back..

A couple of comments: your situational awareness was a bit off. At 12:21 a beautiful woman in dress and hat walk by and you completely ignored her! A true lumberjack would never do that. Is there a way to adapt an IBC tote to the 3 point and carry it out that way? They make carry-all’s and it might be something to look into. I adapted mine to use on both the loader and 3 point. Great video, love a good day in the woods.

Just a thought, always take 2 saws with you to the woods, as my experience has been I always tend to pinch one saw. Bob

You mentioned you have Ash trees. You may want to keep in mind that you are at high risk for Emerald Ash Borer. Here is New Jersey's information on Emerald Ash Borer: www.nj.gov/agriculture/divisions/pi/prog/eabhomeowners.html

Great job Ed. Enjoued watching this

Just a thought rolling around in my pea sized brain. If the three point lifting capacity is high enough, have you considered getting three point pallet forks and putting the wood totes in the rear? My L2501 can lift way more with the three point than the FEL.
