The white in the trailer harness is the ground wire. The ball is never to be used as a ground. I worked as a tech at a RV dealer for 17yrs, and as a master certified tech the ground is a direct wire connection from the truck wiring to the trailer wiring harness. Check the plugs on the truck and trailer for a bad rotted wire at the connection inside the plugs.
That's what I came to say. You have a painted receiver, painted hitch and you're trying to achieve a ground through a sliding painted connection? It will somewhat work. But it's not reliable and a very weak connection. I just dealt with this on a friends travel trailer.
Two things Nathan. 1) The white wire is your ground for the trailer. Chase that down and find out why it's not connected. 2) Put a little 'dielectric grease' on that ball. It allows electrical ground and won't let the ball rust. But seriously the ball should NOT be the ground link between the truck and the trailer.
Nathan, that seven wire trailer plug has a ground wire position on both ends. If connected, wire grounds trailer to tow vehicle independent of your rusty balls!!😂
Many years ago my Dad added a ground strap to our travel trailer to ensure there wasn't an intermittent ground and it ensured the lights and brakes always worked, it was a simple thing, braided wire to a spring clamp.
Having been in and around heavy trailers pretty much all my life I strongly suggest that you grease your hitch ball. I've worn out a few tongues running them dry. Plus it just makes them turn easier.
I hear your chickens 🐔 🐓 are planning a protest in the near future if you dont get their house finished and in order...they say they been working hard making those 🥚 🥚 eggs and they want their house 🏠 finished ! 🤣👍😂😅 Fight the resistance 💪 and win 👍😁✌
Your trailer lights should have a ground wire in the plugin. That way, when you plug things in, they are grounded to your truck through the plugin. This will fix your rusty ball problem.
Was going to say the same thing but you beat me to it. There is something wrong in the harness. The ball has nothing to do with the grounding of the trailer.
It could if it were intentionally wired up to be. But that would be a very bad thing to do. Most balls, hitches, linkages, etc. will be connected directly to the frame, so it should be grounded. But you definitely shouldn't depend on that to complete your electrical circuit.
The contact area required to complete a 12vdc circuit is minimal. Even with the (minor to minimal) surface rust present, there is something else wrong in the wiring harness. Granted we have 60% of the needed info.
Ground wire is in the connector. Looking at the truck female, it is the wire bottom left [7 o'clock] . White wire. Most likely there is dirt on the male side [trailer plug] . Clean up with light sandpaper and a dab of dielectric grease.
You're gonna get a boat load of folks yelling about grounding a trailer. According to the engineers, the ball should not be the ground. However, it works.

Awesome Offee morning with Out Of The Woods, commercial free Patreon early release absolutely the way to go 💯% can’t wait to see inside that monster log.
40+ years ago, I set out to establish an inheritance fund for my grandchildren when I planted around 3 dozen black walnut trees on my property. Unfortunately, I had to sell the property a few years back, as the property taxes became outrageous. Sone of those trees had 20+ feet of clear lumber to the first branches. I sure hope the new owners appreciate the effort I put into those trees. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that the local village decided that they wanted to establish itself as a tree friendly village and passed an ordinance that residents could not cut down or remove trees from their property without a permit and forestry inspection. Local government overreach!
I see you already have some help with your wiring so the lights are all grounded properly . Stay safe and glad you got some of the walnut logs home maybe it will dry up so you can go back and get them pretty soon. Fred.
A good way to avoid the “Rusty Ball” problem is to have a plug ground going to the trailer from the truck. This avoids the problem. I did a lot of boat trailer towing in my day. FYI
I have some english walnut logs I would love to have cut down. Too bad I am in Utah and the tree service my sister used cut the logs to three foot lengths.
Nathan, I enjoy your videos and had to comment on your trailer light issue. You should be able to plug into your truck and the trailer lights should work without connecting the hitch. Check for a proper ground in your trailer wiring harness.
I lived in Illinois for ten years, down state. We had black walnut everywhere. I am crazy about the nuts too, but they are dern hard to crack! A friend twelve miles south of me had an old barn that he sold to a woodworker, the whole barn was made from walnut!! He sold it for $25k and that was fifty years ago!!
Looks like your friend Butch has a system of keeping track of his logs (some kind of numbering system). You might want to adopt that kind of idea, as you'd be able to utilize your inventory wiser.
I don’t like to trust the ground through the ball. On the trailer plug your trailer uses there is a blade for a ground wire. Put a ground wire on the truck side and the trailer side and the lights will always work.
keep that rain,,we had rain for 3 weeks strait..and never rely on a ball ground....theres a Ground that runs in the harness and make dam sure its grounded to the trailer good,,not over paint..you no your brakes work with that ground,,,for that size trailer its a must..nice size logs there,,,Gold id say..dont stand in the rain,,,,its fun right..haaa be careful man..
May want to check the 7 way trailer junction box, check the white wire grounding lug it can get corroded to not provide good grounding it may be grounding at the moment thru the trailer but it isn't the proper ground. White wire is part of the 7 way trailer plug that gets ground from the toeing vehicle. The walnut is great can't wait to see it saw into beautiful lumber. Have a great weekend! John Toccoa
Electric should feed through the cable not on a rusty ball that will constantly do that. Might check if you have a spare hole not used. Or a ground on one side and not the other. Good luck -
you need to ground your plug to your frame of the truck before it goes thru your plug. if you only use the ground on the ball, driving down the road as the trailer bounces, your lights will flicker as it come in contact with the ball. honestly grounding every light to the frame of the trailer is the best option.
The power for the lights comes from the truck which means the ground for the lights also has to come from the truck. Grounding the trailer lights to the trailer frame does nothing if there is no ground from the lights to the truck. Wire the lights into the ground in the wire harness so there’s not an issue getting a good ground between the truck and trailer.
Good day friend here in the UK we cover the ball with a cheap fix a tennis ball with a small slit.cut into it hope this might help Thanks ray in the UK
I'm almost finished with the kitchen table I made from a black walnut log. Just need to put the epoxy on the table top to be done but it's going to be beautiful. I think walnut is the prettiest wood the US has to offer
I enjoy ur channel very much, keep up the great job! I do have a suggestion though, should've used mr. Cato to pick up log, back away from trailer a little bit, park log about chest height, then apply the white stuff(forgot name). you wouldn't even have to pick ur hands above shoulders?! just saying
You should not rely on the tow ball connection for the earth. Where I am, the standard for all the trailers have a good earth through the trailer connector.
Great video. Love walnut. Funny thing about walnut for me is that on my father's farm of almost 500 acres, not one tree was walnut. Even the neighboring farms had very few walnut. Just a odd quirk of the valley we lived in best I can guess.
We have something similar here. I have been cutting timber in a number of woodlots in Greene County Ohio for years. Walnut, oaks, hickory, you name it, but not a single poplar. Not one to be found. And yet if you plant one it will flourish. Go figure. Can't understand why they are not established in the local woods.
Nathan, whoever told you that your trailer ground through the ball hitch.......is not your friend. As everyone else has commented, there is supposed to be a dedicated ground wire in your trailer cord connector. Using the ball as a ground will cause damage to the ball and the hitch due to the arcing that occurs. The ball should be lubed so it can pivot like it is designed to.
My dad suggested it. He is my best friend. And if you watch the video he was right. Thanks for watching Also a ground will only ark when there is an abnormal current flowing through it. Doesn’t happen often and the 30amp fuse going to the trailer plug would pop first.
Nathan, my remark about the person "not being your friend" was not a bitter remark, but none the less I apologize that it ended up being unintentionally aimed at your dad. But I guarantee you that the ball hitch is only accidentally providing a ground path because there is a problem somewhere in the wiring of your trailer cord or the wiring of your truck that is preventing the dedicated ground path from working as it is intended. Some arcing will occur every time you hit a bump if there are any active circuits at the time, even if it is only tail lights. A normal load will cause arcing but will never pop a fuse. I and many other commenters are just trying to set you right about this because it is a defective condition if the only ground your trailer has is through the ball hitch. I started working as a mechanic in 1968 and have done more than 50 years as a heavy truck/trailer mechanic and I speak from experience on the subject. My apologies again for slighting your dad with my comment.@@OutoftheWoods0623
After reading the comment below about the chicken house I have one. Chickens need a place in their coop consisting of dirt so they can take dirt baths, not just wood flakes covering all of the dirt. It keeps them free of mites.
Great video Nathan! I’ve been waiting for a long time to hear the news about your new sawmill building plan. My guess is that it will be closer to your timber frame, and might be constructed in a way that you could stage and/or store, your cuts in ample covered space behind the operator side of the sawmill.
The new trailers with the 7 wire connector have a ground wire as part of the harness. If your trailer is depending on the ball for a ground there is another ground problem . Either the ground wire to the body of the truck or the trailer is compromised. Look further, do not ever depend on the ground through the ball.
Yes, it's Friday night. Saturday morning tons of rain driveway. Has streaks going down it? And this is Blount county in the foothills so we got the same stuff
I lost count of all the camera angles from which you shot this video. I gotta wonder how many CZcamsrs would have gone to that much trouble while working in the rain? You're so much better than the average CZcamsr it's not even funny.
Hi, to protect the ball you can put an unused tennis ball with a hole a bit smaller that the diameter and a bit grease inside. No body will be interested in them.

Without a dedicated ground wire & should you become disconnected wouldn’t have any trailer breaks .

@@OutoftheWoods0623 Nathan - That is a gorgeous walnut log being loaded on your trailer @ 2:00. Can't wait to see it after milling.
In the UK we have to have the ground through the plug and socket, not relying on a metal to metal contact on the hitch.
I'm used to the frame of the trailer being grounded as run a ground wire From the wiring harness with the flat pig tall fastened to frame
In Australia as well. The ground connection is part of the wiring harness.
There is in the USA also.
Butch loaded those like a gentle surgeon. I was impressed, anyway.
Many years ago my Dad added a ground strap to our travel trailer to ensure there wasn't an intermittent ground and it ensured the lights and brakes always worked, it was a simple thing, braided wire to a spring clamp.
Having been in and around heavy trailers pretty much all my life I strongly suggest that you grease your hitch ball.
I've worn out a few tongues running them dry. Plus it just makes them turn easier.
I actually wired a ground wire from my pickup to my trailer in the wiring so that I avoid that and I can run with grease on my ball.
Great to have something good to watch today Nathan! Thanks to you and Butch for making that possible. Looking forward to seeing this one opened up.
Thanks buddy. Coffee is on me!!
Email me your address
Outofthewoodsforestry@gmail.com
the white wire you ground to trailer frame and truck that way when you plug in wiring it grounds through the white wire
Note to self , NEVER GROUND through the trailer ball
You should never rely on the ball for a ground. There should be a ground in your harness, be it 4 or 7 way.
I hear your chickens 🐔 🐓 are planning a protest in the near future if you dont get their house finished and in order...they say they been working hard making those 🥚 🥚 eggs and they want their house 🏠 finished ! 🤣👍😂😅

Run a separate ground wire from both the trailer & truck, which you plug together when using so as not to worry about your rusty balls.

A additional step use axle grease on the ball it lubes the hitch plus adds a rust prevention layer
Your ground should be back to tow vehicle through the plug and socket.
Yup should not be grounded through the ball
Black Walnut is beautiful wood. Just cut up a downed BW on family land, roots and all. Thanks for posting.
I have some english walnut logs I would love to have cut down. Too bad I am in Utah and the tree service my sister used cut the logs to three foot lengths.
THE GROUND IS NOT SUPPOSED TO GO THRPUGH THE BALL!!! THERE IS A TERMINAL IN YOUR WIRING FOR THE GROUND.

If you could find a way to save and bag your saw dust you can sell specific wood species dust to mushroom farmers.
Walnut is one of my favorite woods to work with. It works good on all all my saws and shapes good too. Beautiful wood.
Mine too!

Had a great time on our road trip Nathan. Thanks for having me accompany you.
You bet!
If you are grounding through your ball truck or trailer not wired correctly. Should be grounding through plug!
have never heard of not running a ground wire I use to do trailers in my job
Nice log you picked up. Would make a nice coffee table.

Being a Police Officer all those other years can make you straight faced, I was one for 44 years its an acquired trait LOL

that's why I have several set ups like that in their run for dust baths,
Glad I live out here in the dry high desert country, those rusty balls sounds pretty bad.
Never rely on grounding through the coupling. All circuits MUST run through the trailer plug.
Love the sound and smell of a diesel engine running on a cold wet day while drinking a cup of coffee

You and me both!

Thanks!
Might want to have your plug checked out because number one on a seven wire plug is ground.
You can buy a rubber cap to put on the ball to prevent the problem or a light coat of lube grease
Should be a very good walnut log with some excellent lumber.
Why did you bother putting end seal on the log if you were taking it directly to sawmill?
LOL. Happens to all of us.🤣😂

Hi, to protect the ball you can put an unused tennis ball with a hole a bit smaller that the diameter and a bit grease inside. No body will be interested in them.
Nice walnut logs Nathan is there something you can get for the ball hitch to stop it going rusty like tin layer of grease
Another good one Nathan.
I keep grease on our trailer ball.
I wish I could afford to see your sneak peeks but I'll just have to wait till it comes out on CZcams 😞
To prevent your balls from rusting, use a hole in a tennis ball!
Why does the song "singing in the rain" keep running through my mind as I watch this?
big ole boy in MO making walnut bowls and Henry Rifle in NYC making rifle stocks :-)
The ground on your trailer should be through the cord plugged into your truck, not through the ball.
That sure is a pretty new chain. You need to soak it in some bleach for a day or two and get 'em rusted up so they won't slip.
That looks like you could get some Tennesse hog rifle stocks out of them.
