Some time ago I started watching your videos. I am 70 yrs old and know a little about a lot of DIY things including woodworking. You guys are much more courageous in DIY than I was at your age. I had to learn the hard way to do things like you guys are doing. It is fun to watch the ways you guys solved your problems on the jobs as opposed the way I did many years ago. Keep putting out those videos. You do inspire some of us older people.
Thank you Andrew! 💕
I am so happy to see younger folks who are not afraid of hard work in the outdoors. Just a tip, you can rent tractors, excavators, wood chippers, etc. Instead of owning and maintaining equipment that you don't use daily. It can save you a lot of money. Best wishes.
That’s no fun! Lol
Very nice I am in the process of purchasing 82 acres and I plan on doing some videos on the development of my land year after year I’m so excited!
Fellow DIY/Woodworker here. I love the videos you guys make. I wouldn't stress too much about making the channel all about woodworking. I like the normal stuff too. Just like musicians, it is nice to get to see you as normal people and not just CZcamsrs. Keep up the videos!!
That’s so good to hear! We’ve been wanting to show more, past the woodworking and more into day to day. We will still doing projects, there will just be more content🤗
There is ALWAYS some piece of metal that would ruin a brush hogs day in any clearing environment. lol I will die on this hill.
I was on the fence about dropping the money for a battery powered saw, but after watching you hammer through those trees I am totally sold. Thanks for the great content.
Great to see the everyday life projects you have to do. They remind me of all those I have done and will continue to have to do but it's what you make of it so just take it easy and do what you can as time allows. Also, these videos are just as fun to watch as the building projects are. Keep it up
Thank you so much!! 🤍
We save our used motor oil to use for bar oil. Its not as thick but its not being wasted.
Good job guys. It’s always the last little cleanup that is a pain. Yep, enjoyed it.
A gas powered chainsaw is your best friend on a farm/acreage. That and a tow chain lol. I have beavers at my farm so I chainsaw the few branches if any off the big trees that beavers take down then tow to our cabin with the truck. Once at the cabin I cut the logs into shorter pieces and my wife runs the log splitter. Makes for a good firepit burn pile and cleans up our farm. I use a battery powered chainsaw at work and after a few days of it constantly running out of batteries at the start of the day and throwing chains I grabbed my gas saw. I can do 10Xs the work on my gas chainsaw in 1/4 the time then the company battery chainsaw.
Plus once you get used to a chainsaw you may find a bigger bar handy also for bigger trees.
I enjoy your cleanup videos as well as your shop videos, keep it up.
Yayyy🙌🏻 Thank you for being here!
Woo-hoo!...winter is gone, and the black flys are in full glory in my area...you need to be one stubborn customer to work outside in my area now...hahaha...
I'm fully covered and came running in from my little garden under fire from those little maggots with wings and teeth....
Dick Proennekei would say,
the black flys were thick, like saw dust thrown from a power saw
Hahaha..
I enjoy your channel..its good stuff..God Bless you two.
I live in coastal VA. There are two kinds of commercial stump grinding co. One comes in, grinds the stump well below the soil, rakes up the wood debris to haul away, & grades the soil smooth. $$$
The guy I hired made quick work of 20 stumps in less than an hour but left everything behind. We had to shovel & grade everything ourselves. $
Some of the stuff I saw there was, you know, just right for firewood, just cut it up and make firewood out of it and burn it in a little fire. Pit out there in the backyard and make you a big metal ring and Burt up. Put it in there and let it burn. You know? Just have something to it. Smoke up and hair for the mosquitoes to go away
I milled a lot of my own lumbar and some logs didn't look good from the outside but I did some test cuts and found out that it was really great lumber so after that I took a lot of trees and did test cuts up to 3 1" thick test cuts and I got most of the time great lumber.... So if you get a mill try it you may be surprised what you get for lumber
I used to work with family harvesting and milling lumber. I saw nothing wrong with what you had on-hand; from what I could see. We would have our loggs on a two-year rotation from felling to milling so that the trees (Alaskan Spruce) would age and dry properly. I agree with Sandrasherwood32, you will most likely get some decent lumber from your pile of logs.
Wow... !!! My best friend, It's always great. Your video is excellent quality. We liked and enjoyed to the end. Thanks
In Michigan, there was a giant sequoia growing near Lake Michigan and the towns people made a plaque for it, declared it a monument and cut all the trees down around it so it "will grow more". The next day, it was struck by lightning, because it was the only thing in the area with any height when the lighting came. I don't know how many giant sequioa they have up there, but I know it's not many.
Also, trees don't grow from the ground around them. The take carbon from co2, expel o2 and build their size with the leftover carbon. The only way those trees could have effected that big oak would be if they could shade it out for a good portion of the day.
I NEVER see people making piles of debris with a box blade. Literally 2 or 3 people I’ve seen do this watching thousands of videos. Good job. If you only have a box blade you get really good at this. And it works better than the loader in most scattered brush and debris situations…
Great video Dylan and Molly
Please make more videos about anything you want because they are always interesting and we don't see enough of you. Your Canadian friend.
❤️
There's probably a few 3pt attachments for your Kubota that would come in handy for you: flail mower; brush mulcher; stump grinder and a chipper/shredder. I think Land Pride has at least two of them. It'll take you less time to grind a stump compared to digging it out.
Ahh yes there are soooo many I'd like to have:)
Reminds me of our place. Built in. 1951 and every time we dig we find tons of ‘artifacts’
Haha it's definitely an adventure!
You could drill some holes in the stumps and add some salt water perhaps they will rot
Tim from Canada just started watching your show… if you can invest in a trailer or rent one for sometime…. all of the steel you find on your property, put it in the trailer take it to your nearest junkyard they will give you money for your steel aluminum tin scrap metal
Really enjoying watching the progress with your home. Great video, Thanks.
Thank you thank you!
easy way to get rid of the stumps, dig out around them a little, drill a hole (or a couple) in the middle of the stump, pour diesel in it and light it on fire. :)
oh boy. This is a huge project... good luck you two.
Major! And this is just half😅 We have the other half up front!
God is Great Always!!!
I love all the wood on your property you guys need a lathe and make use of that wood! Great job on the clearing!
That’s a great idea! Any recommendations on which large to go for?
Right there with ya. Recently bought a tractor and an old dozer to make better use of our property. Sweat equity.
❤️❤️
uh... brother, if a greenbrier throws your chain off the bar, your chain ain't tight enough. It should have some snap to it, should spin freely with a gloved hand, and (as you stated) should be well oiled.
Having a grappler sure makes moving brush easier!
Nice work on the clearing of the property Dylan! Thanks for sharing the video!💖👍😎JP
Nice job young man. Nice tractor. High quality.
Its also nice to see a female off her tik tok long enough to be useful for an hour.
Keep it up good man
Great video for me i always remove the bar & clean it cause sometimes it gets claug with shavins nice toy/ tractor with great attatchments
Steve those old rounds, I make a good fire pit
if you have useable logs for lumber & a good tractor like you have load them up & drive them to your local sawmill & they will cut them up to your specs for 25 cents on the $ of the cost of store bought lumber. or some will come to your spot with their portable mills and you work out a deal with them.
That chainsaw was amazing I would’ve never believed it you could do that
I'm in the same situation as you. I have a small forest that is overgrown badly and I don't know where to start, what to cut and what not. Did you asked someone with knowledge of forests?
Is that an l2501? Looks like it. I have the same tractor. Best thing I've ever bought.
Hi, those logs may have beetles in them but as long as the wood is put, in a kiln, all the insects will be dead, this produces “Spalding”, and that leaves beautiful marks in the wood.
The beetles are eating the wood away and pretty much decaying the log. I wish we could save it and get it to a kiln, but haven’t found one near us yet!
Looking good already!
Mantap n trim,s Sir n Tuhan berkati slalu....
U will love a rake, great job
Buy or rent a brush hog and Bob's your uncle. It's all over. Just plow threw everything like it's nothing. Or better yet, get a forrestry mulcher. Brutal. And beautiful.
Looks great !!!
Molly, I feel ya on the trash left behind. I purchased a 1 acre property last year that was about half cleared. I’ve pulled crazy stuff out also. I think you might have found an old burn pile. I did and still haven’t dug all of it up yet.
I think so too! There’s so many metal sheets and batteries other places too😅 It’s kind of fun finding new stuff, but definitely want it cleaned up
Tim from Canada. you were saying your fire poles there were not in very good shape, cut them up into firewood…
I haven't seen any of y'alls other videos, So I lay be way behind, But it definitely seems like prescribed fire could benefit you guys. Just a thought.
Strong work on y'alls part; kudos.
Feel your pain with re chaining just happened to me when trying to clear my forest of a backyard here in NC
First video iv seen of y'all's. Definitely checking out more of your content. What a cute couple y'all are too.
Aww thank you so much!!
Is this video about clearing land or how to tighten a chain saw?
You're gonna have a lot of fun. That tiny Kubota may be really light but she's maneuverable as hell and properly sized for those small trees you have there.
Our front lot is the same size as yours, "we" which means me, have been clearing it for 4 years only taking what I will need as firewood and burning the small limbs in a big pile. Problem is I have rock and red maples, red oaks, yellow-white birch over 3' diameter about 80-100' tall making my John Deere necessary aswell as husky 572xp with a 36" bar w/semi skip she's the best money can buy. Fckn white pines (we only have 13 total) are 125-140' tall so when they are felled they wipe out everything. But being such massive trees I have a massive amount of firewood with 6 trees dropped. Maples produce a brush pile so dam big you'd swear there's more material there than the rest of it lol
The fact you and your girl are out there doing YOUR thing, yourself is what it's all about. In coming years when you have a little one on the way you will be stressed out beyond comprehension currently, you will get nothing done barely keeping up with the dam lawn alone but the foundation you two are building right now will allow yous to stand tall and strong making it through it.
Also you'll be able to upgrade to an actual tractor (I don't say this as a fck face honestly) that'll be able to handle real work, with massive power but most importantly it'll have the weight and size. Our driveway is identical to the long dirt road we live on, was horrible no base when we bought everything, with the tractor I've been able to do everything even remove-move a couple 4'+ boulders with the backhoe fel combo easily. Then run the stone out with the front bucket spread with the rear blade. Packed hard then gravel ontop. The Deere also has a large carryall I built for woods work an anything the truck will get stuck, then I drop it an hook up the 3 point splitter. Do not waste your money on any other splitter even with your mini tractor now it'll run a very strong splitter. Tractor takes the weight and moves it where you need it also sets it at what height you need.
Overall you enjoy bud. Congrats on the house. Land is only good for what you use it for, you bit off all you can handle and could want so wear it with a badge of honor nothing like owning everything yourself lol idk where you are but I'm far north part of new England with many animals, far from a city so the bears are naturally spooked by us so besides the massive moose the wildlife's awesome bud, you bring them in with diff feed and leave some downed trees/brush piles for them to feel safe in. I feed nothing myself 100% natural. My dog has a dam blast chasing them so he feels like a big guy lol the point is anything you and her can ever dream of you can do or have it there only time an money can slow it down. Keep kickin ass, just don't get caught naked with the neighbor and you'll always do great
Watching u from Africa..... inspirational....
❤️❤️
Love a good tractor, grapple and chainsaw video
Yeeesss!
Looks like you guys have a good handle one it all, nicely done
don't you have a backhoe attachment for the tractor? If so, use that to dig out the stumps, you can get more of the root system then and dont have to worry about them later.
There’s only a few that we have to worry about, but the rest will get ground👍🏻
Good job
Instead of burning the waste, try burying it. After a few years it will reduce into nice soil through the anaerobic activity of the soil.
Buddy , remember this - 150.00 hr to bring in a drum mulcher and in 8 hours 99.99999% can clean that entire area, trees and all .... I did my 40 acres and now I just use a finish mower ...
We enjoy the process though! We wouldn’t have bought a tractor if we were going to pay someone else to do it. We know it’ll take a while, but it’ll look good!
Hire a skidsteer with a chopping blade on it and you can turn most of that stuff into mulch including the small tree's
I think that’s what we will do for the front of the property!
Ya'll should get a sawmill for all those logs, would make for some good content.
Chainsaw mill, cutting logs to make raised garden beds
One day we will have a mill!
Looks like some type of a sawmill would come in handy for you. Have metal looks like a decorative grate off like a storm door.
One day!!
I have the same tractor, I love it
Excellent filming man. Must be awesome having 5 acres. Over four football fields lol. Must be kind of hard to walk that much property you are smart having a tractor to drive around the land
We love it here🤗
@@Woodbrew So happy for you guys
Now I want a tractor! lol. Great video!
They are the best! Thanks for watching 🤗
If you change your own oil just save the waste oil for bar oil.
Thats awesome 👌
A flair mower would work well for the cleanup.
Would you consider milling the logs you have? I would think there is quite a bit of wood there....
A little Armorseal on the ends would be good if you ever changed your mind about milling those logs. Even with an Alaskan chainsaw mill
🤍
Saudações. Ao invés de queimar, por que não tritura os restos vegetais e amontoa, inclusive no buraco? A decomposição natural vai criar um ótimo adubo.
Hopefully those big logs you cut go to good use
Hope so!
Awesome
That's living
💯
I liked the tractor stuff
🙌🏻
Красавчики! Привет из России! Классный контент!
Why electric chainsaw? I've never had a problem throwing a chain on a chainsaw while cutting briars with a gas saw
Got that county coffee
Coffee is essential
Why didn’t you sell the lumber??
that toy of a drywall saw you have there needs to go to the dump, lol go pick up a nice McCulloh 20 inch bar for about 250 $ usd on sale and another one the same with an 18 inch & you will be set for life. , we have 20 acres in North Eastern Ontario near the Ottawa river Valley & couldn't do without either of them, that Electric Makita might be good for delimbing a tree with a 16 inch diameter , not much else, lmao
Great job!! Nice tractor, the only thing that would make it better is if it was green :)
Lol. We love ours🙂
Wowwwww !! Mantap n keren... N kalau di Indo, semua pake tenaga manusia.... N boro2 pake mesin... Satu mesin aja ,di pinjam sono sini... Bingung kita liat nya....
Did you end up getting a landscape rake yet? I’m debating getting one and wondering if the box blade is enough.
What size is your kubota ?
You through a package of ? On the grill???
Did you sell the wood?
Gotten rid of all the brush on my property, prepping for a landscape area, anybody here know how to get rid of multiple tiny stumps left in the ground? I need a heavy equipment that can help me work quickly?
Did you put pre-smoked, pre-cooked meat on your fake smoker?
use the wood for outdoor firepit?
Most likely!
Mantap sir n keren Negara anda...
What tractor is that?
Is this , Georgia ?
Electric fence and borrow some hogs. They will do it with out a problem.
What do you guys do for a living??
CZcams is our full time gig🤗
Too bad you dont have a sawmill to cut some of those larger logs for future projects.
I know😭 Building one is on our list!
I know😭 Building one is on our list!
Music??
Firewood?
Possibly!
