I never would have thought the subject of farming, building and raising animals would be of interest to me at my age. However, your positive attitude, good nature and seemingly unlimited amount of energy and ideas has won me over. i tell you, it's hard waitng on your next video sometimes. lol Take care, Evan....we need you around for many more years to see what your inventive mind is going to come up with next.
Me too. Always interested and waiting for the videos. Wonderful people! The kind who are just all around good friends. ❤
That black cherry would make some beautiful spalted lumber.
Agreed
I was thinking the same thing when it fell!
You should make something out of that black cherry wood! It would be beautiful
The good thing about your farm work Evan, is that with a good proportion of it you get , almost , instant gratification. Like the work you are doing now.
But parts of it you have to wait , sometimes for a long time, like growing and harvesting fruit trees.
But , either way, it’s great for us !!
Thank you Rebekah and Evan !
Have a cold one and enjoy the rest of the evening with Rebecca. Another enjoyable video buddy.
I LIKE your attitude today. You simple said “we are gonna takedown this row trees.”. No “try maybe probably” stufff. Great.
Cherry wood for the smoker
Well you ended the day with all your fingers and toes good job
My son-in-law uses cherry would in his smoker for ham and bacon. Adds a sweetness to the pork meat. Always enjoy your videos. Happy Easter.
Hot bath is what you need, nice work, and you will keep warm all winter with that wood
That is a great accomplishment for one person in eight hours. You earned a rest !
Good Day of work. Now the work begins
You’re gonna have plenty firewood and a lot of hard work
I was glad to hear you say you would make part of the black cherry into lumber, that is the most beautiful wood you can get in my opinion. I think several of the limbs would make 2 x 4's. Good luck and good video.
God bless you and keep you,
God smile on you and gift you,
God look you full in the face and make you prosper.
In the precious name of Jesus, Amen
Well done Country View lumber jack!
Nice job! It is stressful getting them all on the ground. Happy Easter!
That was a lot of tree work in 8 hours. You deserve a rest. Hope you get some good lumber from the cherry trunk and maybe some turning wood from some of the larger branches. Thanks for taking the extra time to show us this project. Have a Blessed Easter.
Glad you are safe.... but, I laughed hard when you slipped because ThAt has happened to me SOOOO many times ! I like the fact that you keep those things in your videos, it reminds us of our OWN mistakes and funny slips ! Thanx 4 the 'real life' videos and Happy EASTER to you and Rebecca .
Good job take the day and rest you will surely need it to recover and make ready for your next pure manual labor wood detail. Thank you folks
Great job. Keep up the work and making the farm look great.
Awesome job, Evan. Looks great. It is nerve-wracking for sure. Thankful all went well. Now more hard work cleaning up. Have a great day. 😊
I always enjoy watching tree work. Good job.
🌸🌿Happy Easter!! 🥰🌿♥️
Glad to see you get through the job safely. Tree cutting is very dangerous, and trees do unpredictable things. I can see your progress as you have cut more and more trees over the years, and you're learning more all the time. You're very good at keeping safety first, keep up the good work.
Love your videos. Keep them up
👍👍👍👍👍👌Great work on a job you don’t do everyday …..lots of progress Well done!!!
Wow you done a lot on your own.
I really enjoyed this video
Use the cherry wood in your smoker! Especially to make bacon.
Well Done and safety was well observed...
What a lovely couple 🙂
Pete enjoyed this video. Glad everything went for the most part ok. Now relax and enjoy the rest of your day. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing!
Love your videos ❤ Happy Easter to you and Rebekah ✝️🕊️🐇
Thanks Evan.. Single player here. when no one is around to pull on the rope as it will always go side ways cause all the pull is lost as the tree starts to move. I use some big heavy weights on the rope a few feet out from the tree.
I have used a 55 gal drum full of Water about 10 ft off the ground HAHAHAHAHA Double dramma the crash of the Barrel and the Tree falling on it ..
use can also use a Bottle jack to steer the Tree. Gotta be a large tree for that to work
That was an awesome video ! Great job ! It looks so good , I LOVE YOU GUYS !!! 🥰🥰
I’m so glad to see you back it’s been such a long time since we’ve seen you guys hope you’re all doing well mate love and hugs and god bless you all
Evan shows us how anyone can accomplish HUGE things by taking one little piece at a time. It all adds up!
When having trees close enough to power lines contact the local utility and most will dispatch a tree crew to get those trees on the ground without cost to you.
Hi...... Evan, thanks you for showing your video homestead bye
Thanks like the videos Evan , thanks God your alive .
Enjoy your videos. Ready for spring and outside weather!!!
Aiways glad to hear saw ripping out what trees are left HAte beautiful old trees
Happy Easter Evan, Rebecca, family, friends and viewers.
Always enjoy your videos. Stay well be safe. Greetings from NE rural Ohio....lamb is on the grill ( wood and lump charcoal )...Italian tradition, lamb for Easter. Especially for us, my grandfather was a shepherd in Italy 🇮🇹 😊
Seasoned Ewan, that last black cherry could make such beautiful lumber for wood tuning in the winter time! There must be a good many nice bowls in that trunk!
Or trunk end table or longer coffee👍
A very valuable wood species!
We just got us a sawmill so I have been cutting a lot of trees lately. I don't have a ton of experience so I'm watching and trying to learn. Always exciting to drop big trees. Nice work clearing the fence row!
When you get a tree that leans wrong way use a yankem stretch strap thats what i do and it works great to keep tension on and pull
You did a good job today Evan, glad you came out okay with the two times they went the little off course and you falling. When we get tired we sometimes forget and we have both been fortunate. Looks good and when you get the clean up done you'll really feel good about your work. Stay safe and keep up the great videos. Fred.
Good job Evan no big o opps or ouches thx for the vids stay safe you two
Great job…bit scary at times…but you got it done…(Glad it all worked out with no injuries but it might be good that you experienced some surprises. Good knowledge for future tree felling)👍👍👍
I know you use a pellet grill, but that cherry wood is really awesome to use for smoking meat. Maybe you could add some chips to your pellet grill? I've never used one so I don't know how picky they may be to fuel sources.
I had a 70 ft cherry die and was leaving toward where I parked my truck. I took it down during the COVID scare. I still have almost a full cord of wood. I use it for smoking It gives the meat a really nice flavor
Don’t forget, the 3 pt hitch has quite a bit more lift capacity than the loader does, if you can get up to something close enough like that one smaller one you kept rocking but couldn’t get to come out, you could probably break it loose from the ground with a chain around your lift arms. Good safe work on those trees!
It's great you use everything from the work.
Wow, Evan! I’m loving that grapple. You did quite a day’s work.
Cool trick wedging that side tree off the last tree. It was a little counter intuitive. I'm tucking that one away for a rainy day.
Glad all worked for you. Absolute must that you have a clear path to get away when the tree falls and you know which direction it will fall. I had a friend got caught and I didn't end well. Be always aware and be safe. Keep the saws sharp or it can be dangerous.
very nice job Evan
Nice plan with. The. Chery tree
Great job, looks so much better
That's why I love watching your videos , your funny .
🐤🥖Happy Easter 🐣 🐰
Happy Easter 🐰
Need to get Nathan up there with his saw mill.... That would be awesome 😎
Hard work, Good job . Glad you are not hurt .
Great job Evan!
Happy Easter to you and your family
Smart work with the leaning trees. 👍. Always being safe is the way to go.
Enjoyed the video. You are supposed to holler, "TAH DAH!" every time a tree hits the ground successfully. At least that is what I do. LOL
Great Job Pete!!!
Thanks for your videos. Wish I can help you.
Nice one Evan plz take more care
Keep up the great work love your videos thank you
Use an old paint brush to spread that tordon on the stump. Uses way less and gets coverage on the whole stump.
Hi Evan you always make me very nervous cutting down trees, well done surviving the experience 😁Love your videos thank you.
I’m glad you got them all down. I know you are being safe, but it scares me to watch you. My daddy got killed from a tree felling accident. God bless you Evan.
A lot of work. Safety first always. Thank you for sharing.
Love the channel. And love the farm you all have
BUT, you did not get hurt and that’s the number one thing!
Great job!👍🏻
Glad that went well❤❤❤
A lot of hard work. Beautiful video! I loved that secondary camera angle with the tree smashing down! Well done.
Hy Evan! I would really love to see an air view from all your tree and fence cleaning! Must be great to see the whole picture! Thank you for the holiday video;) Happy Easter to you and the family!
Great job Evan! I miss the small country farm. Have fun.
nice job evan!
God bless us every one.
I’m surprised you didn’t have a stump grinder attachment for your big tractor. It would be real handy.
It would be handy. I have plenty of stumps that need taken out.
JudithB Whew Evan!!! I am usually out with my son when he s cutting just in case!! We usually pull trees down with the truck but we are not on plowed ground. I pull and he cuts. We try to keep the area clean as we work too, bull briars are real bad down here so its not easy. Be careful!!!!!
Nice job, Evan. Actually starting to look like someone who cares lives there!! lol.
That's a good bit of firewood you amassed today. Also, a ton of poison ivy all over those trees... Hope you have plenty of Calamine lotion!
You're a tree cutting expert with all this clearing!
Thanks Evan
Tom from Delaware, then watching you for a long time. Remember what the property look like in the beginning? And then what you have it now you've come a long way. Oh, it's good.
Keep going.
Evan, I have watched you cut down many, many trees, good job, God bless
That is one useful attachment! May need to check into one!
The tree pulling one lol
That looks like a fun and satisfying job. You will definitely be able to see the difference after you finish.
Great Video, glad it went smooth with No casualties...😊
Thanks evan.you certainly done a decent job with the trees bud
Sending you positive vibes from the uk.take care.
Be a great time to put the repairs or addition on the firewood shelter
My dad cut down many a tree. Axe, Saw, Chainsaw. He was usually alone in the woods. When he got older, we insisted that he keep a "fog horn" canister nearby ..... just in case something went wrong.
The old fence row looks a lot better now with the trees gone and no dnager of a tree hitting your power lines.
You have a lot of firewood to cut. Excellent work. 👍👍👍
You have earned your Tree Cutting Certification! Lol
