  • This evening we took down the last tree for the Hobby Garage Build, this one was a Walnut! I think we only have four Walnut Trees remaining. I used the Kubota KX-080 Excavator, Kubota MX 5400 Tractor and Stihl MS 261 Chainsaw.

    I agree about watching big machinery at work. Grew up in South Georgia, on a dirt road and would sit all day watching the road scraper, and especially when they did the ditches because they came by at least four times. Keep up the great videos. Love y’all ❤️💜💙💚

    Ever since I subscribed to your channel and became an avid viewer, I’ve been more motivated to work on improving our property. Prior to watching your channel, I had very little interest in doing any type of outdoor projects. For four years I let things go, first I was in graduate school and most of my time was spent working on getting my Masters degree. The last two years I was busy running marathons and training. Because of coronavirus pandemic, I’ve spent more time at home and getting a lot accomplished with cutting and splitting wood, rebuilding my deck and garage. Thank you for rekindling my enthusiasm for working to improve my property. From Highgate,Vermont.

    It never slows down on the farm. We received our new Massey Ferguson tractor and bush hog today. We traded the 2 wheel drive Kubota for this 4 wheel drive model. We didn’t have a front loader for 9 years and needed to replace our bush hog. We got a super deal. So it’s win all the
    way around.

But he passed away in 1958 when I was 8 years old.nibgave always operated equipment when i could. It's in my blood. I'm never operated a tracker but would like too as it looks like fun.

    @Spinonemaster Před 4 lety

    I'm in eastern PA right on the Delaware River ... we have a lot of Black Walnut here ... I took a half dozen smaller ones down when I moved in 5 years ago ... decided to just leave the stump as the root system is big and tough ... no need to yank them, trenched them out and cut below grade ... drilled them with a 1 inch bit, 2 inches deep to hold water and covered with soil/grass .... damn things are still there, barely breaking down ... I left the mature ones as the squirrels eat the walnuts all winter ... and I make Black Walnut tincture from the dried hulls .... old Indian Medicine .... many believe you can't burn black walnut ... but it's a decent hardwood and burns well in a stove ... funny, being new to the area I've noticed there is no, or little Oak on the river ... the area was an early settlement and most Oak has been cut for wood ... but drive a half mile away from the river and most of the old growth around the farmland is still solid oak ... nice work on the excavator Mike ... like flying a Helocraft, it becomes a Zen thing where the machine just becomes an extension of your limbs ... I'm a retired builder, so I miss the days of running heavy equipment ... but need to put in some drainage pipe to lessen the hydro static water pressure on the house foundation (was reminded again with the deluge we got last Tuesday... we got 7 inches of rain in an hour, and I'm at the bottom of a mountain just before the river) .. I'm in an old rock quarry cut into the mountain (horseshoe) used to build the Delaware canal across the street ... grading/drainage is good but there is a high spot between the culvert that connects under the road exiting into the canal ... so I think I'll just rent a Mini-X and put in 50 ft of 10in perf pipe to connect back yard to the culvert as access it tough for a big machine ... *I hope Hunter is doing well with the lock-down changes and all the activity around the place ... and give Archie a big smooch from us ... he's growing like a weed, and lucky to have the older goldens to guide him to being a good boy ... can't wait to see the shop/garage or plans ... and it will be nice to have more room to store stuff and work in a heated building ...

    I ended up buying a used excavator recently. I need to do a little work to it, but have already been removing stumps clearing an area for a new chicken run and another area on the property for a new deck. An excavator is SO much easier to use than a backhoe. Makes me wish I had not spent the money on the backhoe.
