- Here's another couple section of roadside wood I cut a while back. A strip of small wood on the top side of the unit and then a larger area of big tall wood along a busier road. Thanks again to my wife for her help flagging and for all the work she puts into making these videos for you all. It all went well in the end, but cutting wood with the potential for real problems is pretty stressful. I'm always glad to get a project like this done without issue! Hope you find it interesting, any questions please shoot me a comment.
Nothing like a good wife ! I love my wife 37 yrs she helps me same way thru thick& thin , and it's been mitey thin lately!
Absolutely, I'm right there with you on that. My wife does all the video editing and a lot of the filming as well. Not to mention flagging for me on projects like the one in the video and doing fire watch for me when we get up into level 3. We're a good team. Sounds like you and yours are too. Thanks for the comment and for watching, we appreciate it! Be safe.
Happy Father's day !
Thank you, same to ya!
Nice side bradah ! Nutsy sent me on over ,!
We sure appreciate it. Thanks!
Great videos! Watching from Western mountains of Maine near Mt. Washington. Pete nuts319 sent me here
Thanks! I logged in New England for 20 years or so, based out of Central Vt. Got up into Maine a few times. Don't miss those granite boulders at all! Glad you like the videos, we appreciate the comment and you're watching, be safe!
I liked "you don't need a whole lot of pressure when you push with a machine." Amen, Brother. My last job, (retired Laborer, NY state) I was asked to cut a couple small oaks on a job, we got there and Marshall, North Carolina, who I had never met was runnin a 325 Cat Hoe, bucket against the tree, I asked, "you ain't pushin much, are ya?" He didn't say anything, but the look on his face told me the whole story! We dropped those two trees, I am NOT a Feller, just a firewood cutter for myself, no problem. Rest of the job, I was ditch foreman, 42" gas, and me and Marshall, who I now called, "Smooth" were a team for the rest of that job. I knew right away, this guy was the real deal, and we had some good times him and me. Thanks for the details and video
Hey, that's a good story, thanks for telling it. Having been on both sides of the pushing tree operation I appreciate that you know just what I'm tlalking about. I've had to have some direct conversations with operators to get us both on the same page! And it also translates into me doing everything I can to be steady on if I'm pushing for another faller, or myself. I always amazes me how well balanced trees are when they're standing, even when they have considerable go in one direction or another. Thanks for the comment and for watching, we appreciate it!
Great video really enjoy watching all of them
Glad to hear it! Plenty more of them coming. Stay tuned! Thanks for the comment and for watching, we appreciate it.
You gettn it done good job
Thank you. Roadside wood is fairly stressful stuff, always glad when it's all done and on the ground. Appreciate it, be safe!
Dam good video I like the camera angles
Copy. It's pretty cool to see the different angles. I always enjoy watching and seeing what my wife (the editor in chief) has come up with. Never disappointing, especially since I know it all went well! Thanks for the comment.
Nice work Jason
Thank you! Always glad when roadside work is done, with no problems! I had excellent help, a key component in having it go smoothly.
@@thedailylogger yessir that is a fact, especially when public is one of those components to figure into the program.
@@woos31 Isn't that the truth. It didn't make the video but after I shut the Buncher down and walked over to the truck to get the saw a pickup stopped between me cutting one and my wife in the truck and the guy sat there and watched me cut it. I had my hands full with what I was doing and she was calling traffic so she couldn't make him move but you'd think he would put two and two together. Crazy.
Good looking work!! Sometimes you have to drop it down a gear. I'm getting ready to cut a couple million ft on steep terrain with patches of Christmas trees all in it. Gonna be a similar slow go.
Copy. Slow and steady wins the race! Good cuttin to ya on the new unit, be safe!
Hey t.s you found the channel too , always good to find a brother from another mother thanks to nutzy !
@@StumpjumperVideosPA yessir nuts is on top of the referrals. I try to return the favor!
Who's that in the passenger seat
That's the safety inspector. He keeps a pretty close eye on me, I think he has some concerns about my abilities! With good reason too! Seriously though, that's Beckett, generally he's a ball of fire, but when he's with my wife and she's flagging for me or on fire watch he's completely focused on what I'm doing. Probably make a good operator in a few years! Thanks for asking, good to hear from you.
is it all logged yet
Yup, this one is long gone. They even got quite a few loads of poles out. Thanks for asking!
