I could sit and watch this operator work that skidder for hours. Used to cut wood almost 50 years ago in the heat in the deep south but couldn't afford as good equipment as you have.
Ça travaille bien en tabarnak une petite machine articulée de même. Quelle grosseur de terre as-tu ? Et combien de bois sors-tu par année avec le timberjack?
These trees are most likely used for firewood. Almost all crews in North America will use specialized machinery (such as feller-bunchers or tree harvesters), not chainsaws, for lumber-grade wood. Chainsaws are too labor intensive which drives the lumber costs up because of the generally high salaries in the US/Canada.
Bamboo doesn't grow in -40C climates and you can't make a 2x4 directly with bamboo--you would need to use glulam techniques, etc. And while you can use bamboo as a 2x4 structural alternative, it's difficult to make flat walls with ribbed bamboo. (have you ever tried to nail sheetrock on an uneven surface?) Furthermore, considering the location, you'd have to ship bamboo from some warmer climate which would likely be thousands of miles (or kilometers) just to get the bamboo to Quebec. So not only would it not be economical, it would be less eco-friendly considering the fuel spent shipping the bamboo. Babmoo is a very versatile grass (bamboo isn't a tree) but is not a good solution for this application.
Tiger star 8fifty5 you’re an idiot for saying such a comment! I logged with cable skidders with my father for over 20 years in northern Ontario and we picked up every tree that was merchantable. I’m no longer logging now, but I am an avid outdoorsman and your stupid comment reminds me of the cut blocks that feller bunchers and grapples have harvested in and around our area and by “harvested” I mean complete destruction! Thousands of cubic meters of timber just left behind, not skidded or simply run over by grapple skidders! It’s attitudes like yours that turn people off from logging and gives honest hard working loggers a bad reputation!

I work with a 225 in 1975 at the QNS site north of Baie Comeau, love every minute of it
Oh i just love to watch this shows becouse my late father use to work here.
good to see you using the lower quality wood instead of just running it over, obviously shows you care about the land.
SO MANY CHOKERS haha. we run 3-4 but we're pulling stuff a 9 ft choker wont fit around at the moment. Keep up the good work.
Good operator, taking care of the machine
Love the machine, remember them when l was younger, wish I had one now.
Thatts how to pull the wood out! This is so sick! I love it!
One of the only skidders Id buy out of Quebec lol - that operator must own that machine - he treats it very well.
good little machine those 230 tj
but they sound cooler with the detroit!
and this is how i do my firewood all winter.
Хорошая работа. Молодцы.
eille cest pratique le winch avec les cables a place de la pince!
merci pour cette vidéo
Nice machine
Sounds so different than one with a Detroit engine!!
Not as spicy ☺
A timberjack just isn't the same without a detroit screaming.
a 353 would scream like no other lol
Firewood ?? Right?? some of that is white birch but too small to make a log out of.
Or hardwood pulp
I'm from the west coast, we call that brush!
Pulpwood
Wait until summer to do that work.
I am wondering why the guys don't clean up the load instead of bringing the brush to the yard. I am sure there is a reason.
It’s pulp wood
Is that all firewood?
Nice video,where in Québec was this taken ??
It was taken in Saguenay
What size tires are those?
It's 23.1x26
what are you all logging fence posts

Please tell me what u can make using those trees their not thick enough 4 producing any lumber
You can plant bamboo it grows 10 times faster you can produce 100% more two-by-fours with bamboo then you can do those trees

Much more sexy with a Detroit ☺Good job, nice to play this vid, silver back operator ! Firewood or pulp ?
What in the hell do they make with the small diameter tree
Heat
Paper
@@gman4937 LMAO
Those are not trees. Twigs would not make pulpwood.
