- Cutting timber to build off grid cabin on Woodmizer LT15 sawmill. The logs will be milled into lumber to be used to build a small off grid cabin. I use a Massey Ferguson Mf30 Mf34 tractor with Farmi 501 tractor winch to skid and load the logs.

Those small trees can be tough to wedge as you say. I've ended up with some wedge color sawdust a time or two.
Oh yes the wedge covered sawdust. I have never ever ever had that happen. Nope just doesn’t happen. Nope don’t have any experience with that at all. I have no idea at all what that kind of sawdust looks like and I don’t have any wedges with blunt ends laying around because of that. Nope, none at all. 🤥
You always make a hard task look simple even when it doesn't go as planned lol cheers
That’s easy for you to say when you didn’t have to drag the cable out to the tree. 😁
I like the way you dropped the second tree. I, too, prefer to ease the tree down so it doesn't damage the forest floor. That's why many of my trees get hung up.
Good video.
That’s a good strategy Dave. It’s good how you are always thinking and coming up with strategic ways to do things.
One of the biggest assets I like about your content is how straight forward you are with everything. Thanks for the video!
Thank you, I appreciate that feedback.
I always double stack wedges, when necessary, and I've been an Operator for 30 years. You do great work with your Forestry Management Michael! I do a lot of that Thinning work on the family Farm, it helps the future Mill Logs get bigger.
I still think you could use some yellow birch to make your life miserable 😉 Something captivating about watching trees fall to the ground. Wish we could experience that a little more often. Our trees like to fall in steps, Hung up, hung up again but closer to the ground, hung up a third time almost to the ground, but not quite 🙄 Can't wait to see the cabin build.
When trees quickly fall to the ground it’s all over quickly. When fall in steps and get hung up along the way, you get to savor the moment longer.
@@WilsonForestLands I'll try to keep that in mind. Thanks? 😏
Cool video. Awesome how you are particular about the way you take trees from the forests without destroying everything around them.
I've just started subbbing to your channel and love your content. Particularly loved that you called a "problem" a "problem" and not a "challenge"!!! Keep on going brother.
Thank you and welcome to the channel. It’s funny, a comment above said he prefers to use the word challenge. I agree with you, better just to use the blunt words.
The tree went to the left because of all the negative energy from the trolls. Never feed the trolls. Educate them through mockery, but never feed them, or let them get you down. Keep up the good work.
Murphy’s law Michael, you always seem to have a solution you pull out of your bag of tricks!
“ Lucy, you’ve got a lot of ‘splaining too do” 🇺🇸🇺🇸
I still think this Murphy character needs to have someone give him a stern talking to. He definitely has some ‘splaining to do.
Got a tip which bar Murphy hangs out- though good chance something could go wrong- you know “Murphy’s Law”
You could say that wedge gave you an edge 😊
I took down a tree similar to that first one just two days ago and had some trouble. It was very informative to see it done with an uncommonly small wedge cut. Think I would have been starting to get nervous about the amount of wedging it required.
Excellent illustration and explanation. Thank you.
Sometimes they can be more trouble than this one. I was fortunate this one decided to play nice for the camera. It was the easy one that decided to not play nice.
the problem free forest has not yet sprouted. Well Dun!
Maybe they need to start making GMO seedlings that are engineered to grow into problem free forests.
Ok you're pulling one of my stunts. Getting trees hung up. I got me a ms290 Stihl the other day for $50 bucks. All I had to do to it was put a new plug and chain and bar
Sweet ...I have 2 of them ...good saws both of them
@@grizz2702 right. I use to own this saw before. That's why I got it back
I have never used a 290 but that sounds like a very sweet deal.
@@WilsonForestLands they're really good saws.
Classic example of saying something and bang! ;) At least you know how to deal with it and have the equipment ;)
Yep always good to be prepared for when life goes bang!
Sometimes even the smallest task can turn on us all. Like taking the trash out and the bag has a hole in it getting bigger and bigger every step just to get outside the house 😁👍
Yep we all know about the hole in the trash bag. Or how the hole between trees gets smaller and smaller as the tree starts falling into it.
Great videos! Love your “dry” humor😂
Nicely done. Another enjoyable vid from the Forested Lands of Wilson. I'd have used cushion cuts (also known over here as Danish pie cuts). Lets you do what you did and have a deeper gob (for a longer and more stable hinge) and not have to worry about jamming your wedges into the hinge. And stacking wedges...Hee hee! I use Stihl high lifts. Less messing about. Only 'problem' is that the wedge shank is made of ash so thraping it with an axe poll will chew it up. Like it chews your plastic wedges. I use a thing called a sledge hammer to tap my wedges. We have them over here and they're nice for hitting stuff. Not much cop for felling trees, but why use an axe when you have a power saw?
Good job on the filming. I’m not sure everyone appreciates how ,any times you had to stop and move the camera. Thanks
Great shot on the first fell, and solutions for the second. Well done sir.
I think you were quoting me when you said: "This shouldn't be a problem."
I was actually quoting myself but I would be happy to blame it on you. 😁
I don't see nor use the word "problem", I go through "challenges" thrn ususally succeed through a challenge.
I know, I know, playing with words. To me, problems are just tuff. A challenge is like a dare, I'll just take it on and get through it.
I understand that and it’s a good attitude to have. Calling them problems might make more for fun video though. 😁
You have an ideal lifestyle, working for yourself, by yourself...only problem is that there is no one around to appreciate your dry sense of humour, 'cept maybe those pesky woodpeckers, thank you, later.
Love how you deal with ‘problems’. Great property. Great job felling a challenging lean. Learned a ton.
Thank you Howard. The challenging lean ended up being the easy one. The easier one ended up being the harder one.
@@WilsonForestLands hahaha - Isn't that just the way it goes.
And, Coral's and my most often used phrase is: "It's taking longer, than I thoug😁ht!"
You should only stack wedges when you think that it's the best thing to do. {That made me feel so smart to say that. LOL} I really like how you explain why you are harvesting certain trees and why you try to fall them into certain locations. You are a great representative of forest management and tree farming. If only government forest land was managed as good.
The problem with USFS land are lawsuits.
Lawsuits? Yes! But more than that. Too many people have a say about how we take care of our forests that don't suffer themselves if the forests are not well taken care of. What you see on this channel is someone who cares about the forest, not just for right now, but also the future. He picks and chooses the trees to harvest not because of some government mandate or bureaucratic decision but instead what he thinks will be the best to harvest and also what trees he wants to protect for the future. His decisions will affect him personally. I'm sure that he could add or take away from what I just said. This man I greatly respect.
You also sounded smart when I read it.
I would say you are both right. One problem is lawsuits, the other problem is, it’s government. Your comment was well said. I will add, I have made mistakes in my management practices in the past and I’m sure I will continue to make some mistakes. A big difference between some of us and government is, we can learn from our mistakes and change what we do accordingly, instead of continuing to make the same mistakes long after we know they are mistakes, because that’s the policy.
We all make mistakes but are we willing to admit it and try to do better. Managers of government lands have their hands tied. You have shown me that you care about your land and are willing to try to do things right. My respect to you. By the way, stay safe. As if you weren't planning to do that anyway. LOL Oh yah, I love your videos.
Perfect... well almost.
Good job keep stacking wedges,, why are ya not suppose to?
Watched two of your vids tonight. Just subscribed. Nuff said.
Thank you and welcome to the channel.
If you but some dirt between your stacked wedges, they don't slip apart that easy. It is a big problem with the plastic wedges in Austria. They are very slick. What wood are your wedges? Beech?
Everytime I try to stack wedges in hardwood trees they bounce out and launch across the forest floor….sometimes I sprinkle dirt on the wedges or sawdust and it helps but not always :/
Here where it’s mostly softwood I don’t have a problem with them coming out. I could see how that could happen in some types of hardwood. Out here I could imagine it happening in madrone.
Ok, We are moving.
Well my wife just got in trouble watching your video . On the first tree She said see he pretty much knows what he’s doing , Then the second tree. Well maybe somewhat 😂😂😂😂😂
I guess I can live with somewhat 😂 Thanks Bonnie.
I am a new subscriber and really enjoy your content. Would you be able to create some videos about the equipment you use. Perhaps one on your tractor, another on your trucks and trailer, more in depth look at your log splitter etc.?
Welcome to the channel and thank you for the suggestions. If you go back into the channel a little over a year ago I did a video about the splitter. There may have been a couple more after that where I included a little more about it. A while before that I did one on the tractor and a little of its history, one about the log forks on the tractor. I haven’t done so much about the trucks and trailers. I might be able to come up with something at some point for those.
I just remembered, I think the one about the tractor is titled something like,how to turn a tractor into a logging machine.
@@WilsonForestLands Many thanks. I'll take a look for these. I was contemplating why I enjoy your videos so much. My life is so radically different from yours - completely different occupation and lifestyle. Yet there is something so peaceful and compelling in how you present yourself and the activities you choose to pursue. And you have a very peaceful and calming style of presentation that I enjoy very much. The other channel that I really enjoy and always look forward to new videos is Just A Few Acres Farm. If you are not familiar with Pete and the work that he does you may very much enjoy it as well. Thanks again for your reply and all the best.
It's usually when you think "this will work fine" or "just one more" when falling a tree doesn't go as planned. Lol
Exactly, or in this case it was, “it’s going to get dark soon”.
Why don’t Douglas fur trees grow well in divers areas? Just curious.
Douglas fir does well in a lot of parts of the West where the climate is wet much of the year and summers don’t get too hot. It’s the climate they are adapted to. Some trees that do well in drier climates have the ability to store up water and sugars early on in the spring and summer to get them through the rest of the hottest driest part of the summer. Douglas fir don’t do that as well. When it gets really hot and dry, other trees have the ability to shut down and conserve moisture. In those times the Douglas fir have to keep using water and when they run out they get weakened and the bugs get them.
@@WilsonForestLands thanks for the detailed explanation. I just came across your channel this morning, and have subscribed 👍
Do you still use wedges if you have a rope and winch hooked up to the tree to pull it the correct direction?
Sometimes I might put a wedge in if I’m concerned it’s going to tip back on the saw before I am done cutting and start pulling. If I already have tension on the cable before I make the back cut, in most cases I don’t need to put a wedge in. But sometimes I will slip one in if I have one there handy just to try to avoid potential problems. I have some videos I put out showing how I pull them over with the winch. I don’t remember what the title to the latest one was but if you haven’t watched them, if you look back in the channel it was late spring or early summer I believe when I did the last one.
Welll, if everything went right all the time it wouldnt be called work.
Picare for mr fally don't kill yourself
You bet see you on the next one.
