Fire Wood Processing Time, setting up the wood yard
Vložit
- čas přidán 22. 02. 2024
- All the yards resources are needed at firewood processing time, still in the coldest time of winter with snow storms and wind. Working outside is a challenge and we can lose everything to just one large snow storm. I am a long way from finished cutting but with varying weather I have to set out the yard and start to open the buildings.
Thank you.

Looks like dog is a good helper
He is my sanity and so much help!
Wow that looks so much better than previous set ups. How much you have improved the set up. Heated cab! Incredible. Take care my friend.
Thank you Brian, although now it is so warm we need opening windows and not heat! It I did know this was going to happen which is why I turned your house off and not down. See you soon my friend.
I must admit Simon. Im a bit jealous. I used to do a lot of cutting and splitting. But my family and moved to South Carolina. Doesn't get cold enough here to bother with. Thanks for sharing another great video!
Thank you for your support, imagine how grateful your back is that you moved!
skiddy skiddy, chop chop!! Hope your both well!
All good here Buddy, all well in the smoke?
All good here Bud, same old! Speak soon!!
I see you have a lot of white birch Simon sure makes great firewood we have both white and yellow birch here and beech burns nice you take care and be safe up there
Hi Eric, I hope you are all well. Birch is the only species we have that is any use as fire wood or joinery unfortunately.
Hi My Good Friend Simon Thanks For Another Brilliant Video Nice To See Casper Hope You A Your Family Are Well A Happy Stay Safe From Blue
Glad you enjoyed it Blue, thank you my friend.
Thanks Simon ! We see there’s no rest for the old boy doing drifting in a tractor 😂😂 well played 😂😂. Stay safe folks
Hi Brad, only a shame a tractor is the only chance to drift! Thank you and have a great week.
Thank you Simon for another fun watch! Hope you are looking after that back of yours and the shoulder! Kasper was having a fun time too ball chasing. Have a fantastic weekend. L9ves to you all. ❤️🇦🇺🇸🇪
Thank you Anne, It will soon be time to take Kaspers coat off he is starting to over heat but is enjoying the new time we get to be outside. I have to be aware of the time on the chainsaw while my shoulder recovers, naturally it was the chainsaw that caused it. Love to you all.
Thanks Simon, you got it all set up for processing wood, tractor ran good. Take care.
Thank you Mark, just in time the weather it turning warm for a few days which means I cannot use the logging trails.
Hello my name is Patrik . I look at the film this green stuff kom from steering wheel i think 😊👍🇸🇪
Hej Patrik, den gröna vätskan kommer från ett däck på vedklyven. Måste ha fyllts med skumfyllmedlet.
It is hard work that you do, people take things for granted just turning up the stat when theres a chill. I heat my house with wood, never ending story. I ran my old sthil the other day, used to be able to run it all day when I was a younger man, not any more. Your little dog, his only worry is, when is he going to throw the ball. Stay safe Simon, great Vid.
Hi William, your right and to try to explain how many months works it takes to achieve survival though the winter is a waste of time they just don't understand or can comprehend. How many hours you can be on a chainsaw is a good judge of age for sure I a fully understand what you are saying there. Thank you and take care.
Simon another great vidio
This volvo tractor has a full cab and good heater. Also 4 wheel drive. Probably would be good for plowing snow. Wish you a good day.
Yes this would be ideal, better would be a folding plow with wings on the front and a snow thrower on the rear.
That red tractor would be the bomb to plow with!
Hi, it is and I did last year there is a video of me plowing with it.
Throw the ball Simon! Lol
I am Dave but my shoulder is lame
Simon Great advise about cold starts that a lot don't understand ! Some nice firewood you bucked up :) I wish I had a grapple like that, Can you hold two or three at a time with the grapple & just cut, no bending :))
Hi, Thanks, you can hold up several at a time a cut no problem. I prefer the fork lift for doing that because I can get so many more at a time and is quicker. I just drive into the pile and pick up as many that will stay on the forks and drive to the splitter then stand up and cut.
Yes Simon save our back where we can:)@@arctic-rebel
I like the Volvo tractor. Thank you for the video. Love to watch them. When will your daughter join you again, Simon?
Thank you, she will be here in the summer.
Alien-blood. That's the green.
LOL, I know what it is now. It comes from a tire on the splitter, must be from some filler that was inside.
Howdy Simon- the tractor and log trailer is a great asset for your work. I’m still thankful you were able to get it. That older Volvo is so faithful to just keep going and going. Great video my friend. God bless
Thank you Paul, I am also thankful and amazed I pulled that deal off. You know well that this time of year is the greatest risk for me and now to have it removes great pressure from me. Arriving here and starting from scratch is like a rapid evolution of man caught on video! Not even sure that is funny. Take care my friend.
I bet you're so so happy you built that shelter for the equipment! So good to see it all working so well after their hibernation! Look after your back! Have a great weekend up there!!
Thanks AJ, all seems to be good so far, anyone would think I know what I am doing! Much love from us to you all.
@@arctic-rebel 👍😁
Hello Simon, always great seeing you and glad your weather for logging is holding for you. We were in 50°'s° yesterday and then rain came in late, changed to snow and got 2-3" of powder. Temperatures return back to 50's again tomorrow and even higher midweek with storms and tornadoes possible their predicting.
Everyone and everything, are ready for spring, which it won't be much longer for us.
I'm glad that you were able to get the tractor/trailer, what a game changer!
I'm still dealing with the health issues and my back more so lately again. Apologies for my absence and appreciate you sharing your life with us.
You've motivated me to get somethings accomplished today so I had better get moving. Thanks my friend and we appreciate you and Sara.
Have a great weekend and praying for all of you. Take it easy on the back! God Bless!
Hello Sara!! 👋❤
It just sounds like you have had the craziest winter weather. I am sorry to hear of your continued issues and for sure know the back can be a show stopper so don't worry I appreciate you any way you are and am so grateful for your support over the last 2 and some years. We send our blessing and wish you all well.
@@arctic-rebel I appreciate that my friend. Like they say of many places, if you don't like the weather, wait 5 minutes and it will change. Not sure if I ever asked, do you have an email that you communicate with folks or friends? I know your busy, and if not it's fine. Take care my friend. Stay safe, well and we'll see you down the road...
Sure there is an email in the about section of my channel you will find it Michael under email.
You should put a front loader on the fourwheel drive tractor, then you could plow and still stay warm :)
Yes this would be ideal, better would be a folding plow with wings on the front and a snow thrower on the rear.
@@arctic-rebel yes that would be great. Almost all the streets in my city Drammen, but the main streets are maintained and plowed by tractors with folding plow in front and a big snowblower on the rear. That is very, very useful equipment
Thanks for another great video. Weather here is really odd. Take care. Pats and scratches for Kaspar. Let s know if you found the
origin of the green fluid drips. God Bless.
Alan
Hi Alan,
The green fluid came out of the flat tire on the splitter, it must have been filler with something at some time and it has gone down over winter and this green fluid was dripping out. Take care and thank you Alan.
WINTER FUEL FOR RED TRACTOR...POSSIBLE WATER IN SEPARATOR....??
BEST TO CRANK A FEW SEC...WILL DISTRIBUTE OIL... youre in good shape...prep shed nedds 3ph...! Lites , receptacles etc...some outside shed. Some inside...?
Carry on
Thanks for the tip
Why is there never anybody helping you. I have a place in Canada it's awesome
There is no one here to help me, this is a sparsely populated remote area. The third most sparsely populated area in the world according to statistics. We were on our way to Canada but somehow stopped here. We both love Canada and Alaska not sure about what has happened to those in power though.
Hello Simon, I just got done moving my splitter to the woodpile for splitting next years wood, came in for a coffee and watched another of your great videos, I live in maine, USA we are fortunate to have oak maple birch and other hardwoods for burning, I am envious of your winters, we used to have mostly snow all winter, I miss it, this year we only have received app, 10 inches all year, do you have your own woodlands to cut from, or neighbors let you cut on their lands? Thanks for the videos, stay safe, Ken..
Hi Ken, it is possible our paths crossed in the past. I may know about Maine winters or what they were like Early 90's and your tree species. I am sure your full winters will return in a few years we are just on a warmer orbit around the sun, nothing to worry about normal heating and cooling of our beautiful planet. I do not own any forest so negotiate with those that do.Always improving the forest as I go. Thanks for dropping in the comments, Be well.
Hi Simon, thank you for responding, what a beautiful area you live in, are the houses where folks come for the summer? the bridge walk you took us on was such a nice tribute to the wilds where you live, have you been to maine? Thats a long haul from where you are, was traveling part of your earlier life? Sorry for all the questions, just find the things you do are things I enjoy also, thank you, Ken..@@arctic-rebel
Hi Ken, some of the small cabins are summer houses, some of the larger houses are also summer houses where the original builders have passed or moved then they also become summer houses yes. I have been to Maine, needed some thinking time. I have traveled both leisure and professionally yes. Our planet is really small once you get going, I think. I am leased you enjoy the video's and appreciate you joining the now quiet pace of life. Thank you.@@user-qk2dc1pp6c
Tack för denna filmen vad fina volvo bm maskiner är volvo bm traktor en 2204 eller 2254 och skogsvagnen är det en patu 525? Vad va det för någon märkte på vedklyven? Vad va det för husqvarna motorsåg som du kapade veden? Hoppas att du vissa när du åker till skogen med volvo bm traktor och skogsvagn när du ska hugga
Hej,
Traktorn är en 2254 och Patu 420. Jag använder 550XP och en MS462C.
Isn't it nice to have heat?
I love it, almost like normal life
Hur mycke är en "cord" jämfört med en kubikmeter?
Hej, en sladd är lika med 3,62 kubikmeter. Normalt jobbar jag i meter men då frågar USA-partiet mig hur mycket det är. Så tänkte att den här gången skulle jag säga det i sladdar
That Wood kept you warm 3, 4 times even before in the stove or boiler🤠
I dont see any steel toe on your boots, please consider this, cutting in a pile is the most risk for this. Do own a piece of forest or you can just go out and cut some on big corporate or state forest?
Very true statement, All tree's are owned by someone so you cannot just cut you either have to own the land or have permission (contract) to cut. I do not own any forest yet this I am working on so I negotiate with owners to cut.
I know it’s hard to ask for some help.is there some young people that can help and also learn the trades you know 😊
There are no young people here, I am the second youngest person in the village. Worse, small villages in the north are declining at a rapid rate because there are very few opportunities to earn money without travelling great distances.
@@arctic-rebel thanks for replying.I think it’s very interesting that you can chat with people from other countries.im always reminded that I seem to be old school in my ways. Thanks
