where's your chocolate boy?
i do a lot of hunting and fishing in that area
If i had the money id buy one of those combi machines
Wassup unc
You know chillin like a villin
Does Dean miss his 501 lol? I won’t go back to fixed after running dangle head
I don't think so, especially with the buncher in front
Hi John!!😀😀 Good to see you buddy!! I always pile on the left side with my fixed head. But the saw on my head is on the left side . If he wants the machine to be a little more stable. He should put a couple cords of wood on the back to help hold it down. Take care my friend!!😀😀 Logger Al
Nice to see a waratah 219x in action.👍
@@waynehershey you got it wayne
Looking good that was a good sized oak he had at one point.
It was probably 25 inches
Is he going to continue to bunch ahead of this or cut off the stump if he sells the 357?
I would assume I don't think he has plans of selling the buncher right now
@@pine8806 👍🏻 hope he has great luck with it. Looks like a nice setup. That 219 works well by the looks
Rugged head
Nice rig ! Like to see what production he can do in softwood? Keep them coming 4
It's pretty fast
Hemlock goodness! I am cutting some really nice Hemlock now in southern NH. Too bad it's not worth much.
I know and there's a lot of hemlock around.
Can a guy even pay expenses cutting that crap? 😂 I have a lot on my land. I set out to cut a triaxle load of logs and it mostly cut poorly so it went to biomass and after trucking I decided I’d rather it just blow over and rot 😂
Where the pulp going?
Yes,yes TIMBER im BIMBER
The timberpro forwarders, especially the d models, are very smooth, but since they have an independent hydraulic pump for the swing of the cab, it can be a little touchy to get used to at first.
I'm sure thanks for the comment
A combo machine has always been my dream! But here in Mississippi, ctl hasnt caught on. We're a tree length state. We're not set up for ctl. Out timber has so much under grouth in it makes it difficult for machines like that to operate. Even our trucking is different. We're set up to hot load trucks. Our trucks do not have cranes on them. I been watching ctl for yrs, and I love the fact that 1 machine can do everything. 1 operator.
Always a different animal
Did he cut it off the stump or was it there just needed processed then picked up? How many hauls can he get out in a day?
Nice to see what this looks like from outside the cab. Nice looking machine
I know what you mean
A lot of dollars on that landing and I don’t mean the wood products.
If the numbers work they work
need to see Timber
😮 They don't give those things away.
Tigercat still working well?
Handles those pine very nice
Great video, glad to see things are moving along
Thanks for watching sir
Morning I work for a company in southern NH we do a lot of work for Kennebec Lumber. We’re actually on a hardwood lot down in Webster MA for them currently. Been taking advantage of the hot hardwood pulp market aswell! Been watching your stuff for awhile now never knew you contracted for them.
Thanks for watching. we don't contract to KLC directly, but all our hardwood logs go to them and work closely
🎉🎉
Hi John!!😀😀 Good to see you buddy!! You have really came a long way in the last couple years. Hope everything is going well. How has the new harvester been working. Anything much for troubles with it so far? Take care my friend!!👍👍😀😀 Logger Al
It has been real good so far just a few minor things
Nice iron..
Thank you
Not to be mean or anything, but why have a feller buncher when you can cut down trees with the harvesterhead?
You are totally fine. It speeds up or production by a lot in the wood we cut
Have a look at the youtube video title "Thomassen Logging 055 June 2018" Tigercat 880 with waratah 625 harvester head, fall and delimb. 635 skidder for long length stems trucked to log yard processing. (Logging system has been modified since this video) Can be harder on the processor track machine & operator to fall & process the larger trees in the cutover. Often more maintenance costs (bent bars etc) and potentially reduced time between processor rebuilds if the 'waratah type' processor head is used to fall trees larger & heavier than the small to medium-sized tree size (fall and process) harvester heads.(622 and below)
Well put.
Where we are we have many different stand types and densities with heavy under growth in the low density stands so a harvester cutting off the stump production numbers are just to up and down, with the buncher ahead the production is higher and more consistent
How have the Weilers been treating you?
We have had real good luck so far
Its where in maine
Are you guys working through spring John?
Nice video!
Fill that head up nice machine
No heel on that Prentice makes moving stuff a little more delicate. Is this in Temple on that 700 acre lot?
I must have missed a video. i didn't know you had the prentice or the hitachi?
Must be planning on loading that out with a center mount?
Yep making more room for the forwarder
Hi John!!😀😀 Looks like a pretty messy spring by you guys this year. We never had any winter here in central Wisconsin this year. We didn't even get weight limits on our roads this year because of not having any frost at all in the roads. Hopefully things dry up soon for you guys. Good to see you buddy!!😀😀 Logger Al
Yeah it was not a great winter
So sweet!
100 loads trucked, and none were chips.. that's a lot of work!
Yes it was
البدء 😂❤
Your guy in montville must be up on Frye mountain. That was my backyard as a kid spent a ton of time riding snowmobiles dirt bikes and 4 wheelers up there. I’m glad your business is taking off! I still buy all my stumpage myself do you find it more worth it to just work for a management company and not deal with the landowners and all the other stuff that comes along with it?
Hi John!!😀😀 Glad to hear things are going well!! Good to hear that the new guys are working out. Keep up the good work!! Looking forward to seeing more videos!! Take care my friend!!😀😀 Logger Al
nice truck 🎉 check out this one...
Wondering how this set up works in rolling to fairly steep terrain or something that a wheel cutter could cut? Will it work on a moderate steep hillside or for flat ground only?
I always wanted to operate a forwarder but I run skidder
We've got a set of Pewag flotation tracks and like them so far. Had some trouble with a few of the joining links breaking so we replaced them with Olofsfors links.
👍 video
Well said Jon. Many people dont give a new machine a chance. You need a fair amount of seat time to get to the same comfort level you had before. Demos can be more harmful then helpful as many dealers dont have the machine set up well and it leaves a bad taste. The electronics need to be experimented with to find what you like and many are scared to play but it is necessary. Regarding the def consumption. Weiler uses a non egr engine which is a great thing but it does have higher def consumption than deere. The consumption is in the middle of john deere and the new tigercats. Deere has the lowest def burn at the expense of the most fuel burn on this size class machine. Having accumalated 20,000 hrs on an 853mh and now clocking in 4800hrs in one year with an H457 I can say and prove that the huge fuel savings on the weiler compared to the deere even factoring in the increased def consumption nets me a savings of over $30,000 annually on my double shifted operation.
I like the 2 roller. Less stuff to wear out. Seems very efficient. Question for ya? After the wood is forwarded out of that thinning unit, do you guys go back through and brush down or mulch the leftover brush normally?? Or do you just leave it?
looks awesome!
