  • A walk from the 550 Timberjack skidder that we uncovered...over to an 892 excavator...then into the rhubarb patch to looks at crew buses, crummies and misc logging machines in a dense alder patch

    Can someone say bankruptcy? Previous owners of this timber/logging operation are either on the lam or taking dirt naps, I'm sure. The value of this bone-yard with all its broken down equipment is priceless. Outstanding hands-on video; enjoyed it and admire your curiousness, Pearson. Hope the robin returns and its eggs hatch healthy. A magnificent place to raise a family. Think of all the critters and creatures that take advantage of this human wasteland. We are society of throw away and runaway.

    My dream, is to find a property like that, and breath life back into all those “TOYS”!!!

    Get that ”Jack Skiddah’” going first, your going to need it’s plow and a winch first! Right off the Rip, a chainsaw, a WICKED RUGGID“weed-whacker”, and a fully-equipped Service Truck(portable shop), to start!!! You’ll most likely find the spare parts, the further you get digging’ in there!!!Bon-chance, mon-ami!

    Oh id love to be able to pull em out and restore them. Instead of letting them sit and rot. Makes me sad seeing them rust away.

    There is so many cool things there! I would love to have the chance to walk around all that stuff like you!

    You would be surprised how durable that kind of machinery is. As long as the intakes, fluid ports such as oil, hydraulic etc are not open to the elements and it was properly serviced at the necessary hours of service intervals. That equipment is probably good to go. They might not be pretty to look at but I'll wager there are plenty of hours left in those cats. I'd give my left nut for one of those excavators. Convert it back to dirt work and you would be making 500+ a day as an owner/operator if you know the right people and Obuthead is not in office.

    Someone that i know bought alot of land and found a old Ford Tractor 8N and got it running an uses it all the time now.

  • @jeeperzcreeperzz
    @jeeperzcreeperzz Před 10 lety +7

    I just dont get it. Its crazy to think of buying land and not knowing whats on it and then finding hundreds of thousands of dollars of old equipment. It would be so cool to try to get some of them to run and operate again!

    the old detroit in the timberjack will probably still fire up with a couple new batteries..

    I bet all this stuff stays there until the owner passes on, and the poor relative who inherits this mess will have to deal with it. Probably with some scrapping company. He should have given it away, so his heirs wont have a hundred ton problem.

    • @CountVonBoco
      @CountVonBoco Před 10 lety +2

      I'm sure thats what will happen, all because the owner is some grumpy old man that wont sell any of it, thinking he can still run a logging company with it all, or it has some sort of astronomical value (to him) that makes people not want to buy any of it.

    by the looks of the tree growth looks like maybe left for about 15 years or better.

      The grapple excavator in the beginning of the video was last serviced in 1997. One would assume before starting a logging business to have all the vehicles you bought serviced. The rest of the vehicles are much older though.

    The evidence points to British Columbia as the location.

    • @sunfadedlovejaded7741
      @sunfadedlovejaded7741 Před 10 lety

      Or with the alderwood can be in Alaska.

    • @cocarr1
      @cocarr1 Před 10 lety

      Good eye! But I should have mentioned that many of the poster's other videos were from British Columbia. In one vid he mentions a neighborhood theater, the Denman Cinema, in Vancouver, BC.

    Mike Pearson, very interesting video, but i hope you get permission from the land owner before you go prowling around the equipment on that private property. If I found someone in my overgrown field of shrubs and brambles, climbing on my old tractors, machinery and cars (which I keep ropes, tackle, tools and chainsaws in -because they can be locked), I would be extremely annoyed!
