The memories of when I use to cut and split my wood! Tractor, chainsaw , log splitter = a good day!! Unfortunately my schedule dont allow me to do that anymore. I always dreamed of a skid steer with a grapple to move logs and wood. My financial advisor (wife) never had the same dream!! Have a great time guys!!!
Great to see you and Ken work together! A little bit colder up there. Today's high will be 58° nice work, bucking and splitting, right into the bucket. Always a great time when you two work together. Great job to your great niece working the camera in the 🥶 🧊. Goodnight Irene!
Nice to see Hollywood Kenny back on. Always awesome seeing you guys work together. Kenny’s grand daughter did a great job on the camera work as well. Always a good time with family. 👍🏻
Appreciate the lengths you go Chris, getting good footage for us, running down the road after Kenny driving the tractor like he’s late for a hot date!, no Pussy-footing around.
DAM FOR OLD MAN U CAN RUN I CAN HARDLE WALK ANY MORE AND I 45 HELL IT WOOD TAKE ME ALL DAY JUST TO WALK THAT FOR GOOD TO SEE YOUR NOT READY FOR A WALKER YET KEEP UP THE GREAT VIDS
Hi Christa/Kenny, my God that is a massive wood boiler. Years ago, I had a Passat wood boiler, half that size, and it more than heated my home, although, not in -20 below I might add. I like the extension on your bucket Kenny, and also the side table on your splitter! That ole splitter looks like it has earned its keep. Enjoyed seeing you two together out there! You almost reminded me of ‘Scheib’ with the beer, wish you would teach him (Scheib) to ‘Ya…..hoooo’ though. Keep up the good work fellas! Len (Devon 🇬🇧).
Ken is a Very Good Tractor Operator. Too Cold for me, I guess I'm getting Old. Grand Daughter has Pretty Blue Eyes. I like when she has hiding behind the truck. I hope Ken gave her some hearing and eye protection. I think she could use a fire🔥 to keep warm. I could use some of those 6x6's its a shame to cut those up. I wish Ken had his own you tube channel. I see the little girl in the back ground playing in the snow, just like a kid no matter how cold it is, she is out in the weather playing.😁🔥Keep warm. Looks like some front end damage to his SUV @ 40 02 / 46 47.😮 I would rather feed that wood burner than pay the gas bill. Great Job you guys.😄
great vid! learned a little trick from ken! instead of fighting with the wood double stacking on the splitter start one then stack the second one on and then split! saves time and aggravation! enjoyed the video!!
This was good double wood tutching team 🤣 this reminds me of my dad and I when we would tag team a pile of logs 2 saws cutting in harmony music to my ears 🤪 some people when they cut with a chainsaw they drive my crazy listing to the sad sound 🤣
Nice wood yard and a nice green tractor. I have a JohnDeere also but I think if I was buying brand new I would seriously Look at a Kioti. Seem to be better priced and much stronger. I love my JD
Good morning Chris and Kenny!!😀 Kenny has a lot of wood in his yard this year. I think he might have more than you do Chris. The neighbors boiler is a monster. His probably holds over twice as much wood as mine does. Mine will only hold not quite a wheelbarrow full of wood. Were his will hold a wheelbarrow full and the wheelbarrow. LOL!! Take care and stay warm my friend's!!😀😀👍👍 Logger Al
Kenny, is a dead ringer for my dad at 50yds in those same faded Carhardts! Sadly, I have too go and sit with him tonight in the hospital. He's almost 85 and fading...sigh
You only get one mum & dad…..spend as much time as you possibly can with him; there is no second chances! Hope you get plenty of his remaining time! Good luck and God bless!
Kenny certainly drives that tractor hard. I like the way he stacked the wood on props to cut it. Looks a lot safer than the way you do it Chris , Balancing on the logs.
So Kenny likes playing with his wood I could just feel your anxiety in the beginning when he was moving a couple sticks at a time I was yelling come on let's go now Chris has gotta get cutting a guy get cold just standing around
Your new videographer did a great job! I think she needs a raise. I see the nice stack of wood in the bucket and then see it get dumped into a pile and think of the extra handling that's going to go into stacking it. Would there be a way to stack on pallets, ratchet strap it down, and fork the pallet to where you want it? I'm no expert (clearly) but minimizing handling has to be a key to increasing production/reducing time spend working in those balmy temps...
hi there always enjoy both of you guys . but hears my 2 cents . thats a very nice splitter but a bit slow for the 2 of you . but as anyone can see it works great john
Good Morning The boys are back. Think Ken would notice if you "borrowed" those pallet forks Chris? Seems like the next logical small money addition to The Woodyard. Stay warm.
When I'm trying to get big logs off of a pile from the side like that, I just slide the forks close together a little narrower than the width of the log. Then I push in under it and pick it up and pull off pile....no chains needed...and safer than crawling on icy pile.😊
Chris and Kenny, love watching your videos, im sitting here with 75 degree weather, wishing i were there. trapping and cutting wood, what a nice piece of property. chris your video cooking lunch for your buddy was cool. you boys know the good life. i hope your trapping goes well, im a outdoorsmen as well, and you guys are showing how its done. what area of wisconsin is it your in trapping, im not looking for spots, just a nice place in the country. be safe , enjoy your time together.
Definitely some nice logs for a processor. Those ties are nice, no bark or sap wood. Good seeing the two of you working together. Did you get a chance to use the tractor and back blade?
Chris tell Ken on loading firewood in his bucket when the wood comes off his splitter. If he will lay the first logs parallel with the bucket in the back, then stack the rest like normal it will push the front of the firewood over the front edge of the bucket but he will get another row behind them??
Kenny...Your granddaughter is absolutely beautiful!😍 I am no green tractor expert but have seen several swap the front tires around sides to change offset. Is this an option with your model to give a wider more stable stance in the front? Thanks for letting us see how things are done in your woodyard!👍#buschlight
Few things… 1) jumping the gun on release time this morning. You don’t get 1.5hrs pay for that only comp time. 2) where is Ken’s zip ties? Poor guy has to hang on to his baton like a male cheerleader 3) I think ken needs to come and put some seat time on orange blossom and see if it’s up to his standards.
What do you think of the smaller processors like the Range-Road for a small firewood operation like yours? All the small processors of that design for at least three different brands come out of the same factory in China. The Lil Beaver 14 available through Multitek is $20k. Curious as to what size amd models of processor would work for you in your operation and what would work for Kenny. Am looking well into the futre for my long range planning.
i don't mean to be picky, but if you trained your attention a little more to properly gauge the length of those logs you're looking to turn into firewood, you wouldn't have to rely on the metal rod with the magnet on it to get your size. Just sayin'.
if he had his forks closer together say 1 foot apart he could go in and cradle the logs to pull them out then pick them up no chin involved just saying
@@kennethcarlson8713 Will do next time I'm the the Appleton area and Chris can hold a few for you. Maybe this summer when I tow my boat over to Lake Michigan from Columbia County.
Kenny's woodyard is flatter than yours. You oughta take some back home with you!! I could use the flat ground even better than you!! That dang splitter is slower than mine!! Watching it, I thot 'it's slower than Uncle Joe's Yugo"!! As fast as he runs, how does Kenny put up with it? He pointed out, what, 150 cords? The time to do that boggles!! - Tell Kenny 'be careful'! Frozen beer can be harmful to your health!! Mostly your teeth!! - Is that a new tractor? It has a big-screen firewod stacker on it, don't remember such high tech on the tractor from earlier vids!
No, I don't think I've ever worked hard enough or had enough clothing on to be sweating at -20. Even the Carlson girls are tough and up to the task though. GNI
I can't understand why more woodcutter's don't do this. Just throw some old logs on the ground to protect you saw from hitting the dirt! Doubles the chain life! Work smarter not harder!!
Where you’re going to ‘pile’ it? You mean stack it or what? I speak Wisconsin and that didn’t make sense to me. I’m not in the lumber business but I’m good with wood especially morning wood & beaver although I don’t have to trap mine. You boys have a nice time in the forest & keep dropping great vids.
The wood has become secondary, we watch you for the wit, wisdom and insights.
Thanks for the cheque
The wit's at least half the reason!!
Thanks, we like to have fun and get stuff done too!
thanks!
Great stuff and Ken’s granddaughter did a great job too!!!
I think so too! Thanks!
When I see Ken I wish I had a brother!!!! He is a working machine!
Yes he is, he makes me look lazy!
That was some fine driving with the forks. And some fast cutting with the saws.
Thanks!!
Gotta love all that poor man's concrete in the wood yard. Sure beats mud and ruts. Man Kenny runs that tractor like he stole it.
Yup, that is normal!
The memories of when I use to cut and split my wood! Tractor, chainsaw , log splitter = a good day!! Unfortunately my schedule dont allow me to do that anymore. I always dreamed of a skid steer with a grapple to move logs and wood. My financial advisor (wife) never had the same dream!! Have a great time guys!!!
thanks GAS man!
I have the same advisor
Nice work fellas. Your camera girl did a fantastic job. I hope you paid her well!! GNI
Thanks Mike!
Wow, two videos today! Over an hour and a half of quality videos. Love it.
Glad you like them!
One of the best filmed video's you've ever made. Maybe it was the great camera work. Great panning. I hope you paid her well.
Thank you very much Dale!
Good video. Glad to see that family can work together and get stuff done. Have a great day be safe.
Yes, that was special!
That's one hell of a life you guys are living! 😍 Good times with family to be treasured for sure.
Yup, our life is better than most people dream!
You two are a riot! Always enjoy to see you guys work together! Well done 👍🏻👍🏻GNI
Thanks Todd, if we are breathing we are having fun, life is to short not to!
You guys are a couple of hard working men. See you tomorrow. GNI
Yes you will!
Great to see you and Ken work together! A little bit colder up there. Today's high will be 58° nice work, bucking and splitting, right into the bucket. Always a great time when you two work together. Great job to your great niece working the camera in the 🥶 🧊. Goodnight Irene!
Thanks again for watching Craig
@@InTheWoodyard try to get to see what kind of new adventures you are on!
You both can produce firewood fast. You niece did a great job with the camera..
Yes she did great!
“You could probably fit 4 or 5 bodies in there”. Haha I love the commentary. Should dub that boiler as “The Creamator”
Thanks!
Nice to see Hollywood Kenny back on. Always awesome seeing you guys work together. Kenny’s grand daughter did a great job on the camera work as well. Always a good time with family. 👍🏻
Thanks MAN!
2 videos in one day...bonus 😎👍😁
Like your neighbors boiler wood shed setup, nice convenient out of the weather cool👍👍
You got that right! Thanks!
Appreciate the lengths you go Chris, getting good footage for us, running down the road after Kenny driving the tractor like he’s late for a hot date!, no Pussy-footing around.
That is right Ken is all action all the time!
Wow!!! Looks like that firebox could hold a face chord!!!!! Lol always look forward when you're with Ken. You guys have a great day
Thanks! You too!
I sure like the "back stop" on the bucket.
It's the only one I've seen.
That is because Ken made it custom!
Kenny bucks firewood like I do. 3 stringers and then lines up several logs and bucks them all at the same time. It's what works the best for me.
That is because you are both pros!!!!
Absolutely loved hearing those husqvarna saws rumbling while warming up 👍 my 390 xp and 372 xp sound great also
Great to hear!
Kids today love using the cameras and video cameras. So that is one way to put your grandkids to work 🤣.
She did a good job 👍.
Yes she did!
DAM FOR OLD MAN U CAN RUN I CAN HARDLE WALK ANY MORE AND I 45 HELL IT WOOD TAKE ME ALL DAY JUST TO WALK THAT FOR GOOD TO SEE YOUR NOT READY FOR A WALKER YET KEEP UP THE GREAT VIDS
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!
Ken must have been the wild child.got to drink fast could freeeze🍻
Yup , you could say that!

Thanks for the stories and kind words Len!
Man ya gotta love Kenny, what a great guy! GNI 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Yup, he is a real "dandy"!!!
Lovely little JD but could definitely do with a cab
Maybe some day when we get old and feeble, a cab would be nice but not needed.
I gotta grow me some of those square trees. Real handy cutting n splitting n stacking.
Kudos on the Busch lattes keeping ya warm out there

Thanks so much for watching Stanley!
I loved it!!! Action packed up north, both of you guys get the same results but have different systems of getting it done, excellent change up.
Thanks!
Great Camera Young Lady!! Y'all two are working machines. Look forward to the rest of these videos. Have a Safe Day
Thanks David!
How can Ken say weenie saw with a straight face when he drives that tractor? He could rule the world with your tractor.
He is just deflecting!
That is one good looking tractor... lol
Yup, but it is very small! HA!
great vid! learned a little trick from ken! instead of fighting with the wood double stacking on the splitter start one then stack the second one on and then split! saves time and aggravation! enjoyed the video!!
Yup, it works great!
whats a good wireless
mic to use on my gopro or smart phone if you don't mind!
Kenny, you're an animal on the tractor.
He sure is!
Good job guys
Thanks!
This was good double wood tutching team 🤣 this reminds me of my dad and I when we would tag team a pile of logs 2 saws cutting in harmony music to my ears 🤪 some people when they cut with a chainsaw they drive my crazy listing to the sad sound 🤣

Great teamwork!! You guys sure can process wood fast plus, it's always good times when you can spend it with familly.
Thanks!
Kenny rips on the tractor.
Yes he does!
Nice wood yard and a nice green tractor. I have a JohnDeere also but I think if I was buying brand new I would seriously
Look at a Kioti. Seem to be better priced and much stronger. I love my JD
That was my findings for sure. Thanks Richard!
Damn that boiler is ENORMOUS
It sure is!
Good morning Chris and Kenny!!😀
Kenny has a lot of wood in his yard this year. I think he might have more than you do Chris.

Logger Al
Yup, maybe 3 of them!!
Two videos one day! What did we do right?!
Hey Ken can make that lawn mower do some cute work!
Kioti all the way! 😂
You got that right!
Kenny doing Kenny things is pure entertainment. Lol
Not showing off just how I do it
Yup, he gets it done!
Kenny, is a dead ringer for my dad at 50yds in those same faded Carhardts! Sadly, I have too go and sit with him tonight in the hospital. He's almost 85 and fading...sigh
Sorry to hear that bud. I hope you can find some comfort and happiness in this difficult time.
@@jeffy1466 Just got home. He's holding his own, so far today. Thank you for your kind words!
Sorry to hear that. See him as much as you can now.
@@InTheWoodyard Will do, Chris. Love all the Kenny videos, lol.
You only get one mum & dad…..spend as much time as you possibly can with him; there is no second chances! Hope you get plenty of his remaining time! Good luck and God bless!
Kenny certainly drives that tractor hard. I like the way he stacked the wood on props to cut it. Looks a lot safer than the way you do it Chris , Balancing on the logs.
I'm trying to train him up
HAAAA!
Yup, he has a good system!
Always a great video when we get to visit Ken's wood yard
Yes it is a good time!
Fantastic camera person! The other two clowns, eh normal day. But still love watching.
You are right!
So Kenny likes playing with his wood I could just feel your anxiety in the beginning when he was moving a couple sticks at a time I was yelling come on let's go now Chris has gotta get cutting a guy get cold just standing around
Yup!
Always good to see the brothers together.
thanks!
"I''ll hold yer beer, you put it in"
HA!!!
Kenny is a real good tractor operator I could watch him all day great video Chris looking forward to more with you 2 👍
Yup, he is a mad man on that thing!
Your new videographer did a great job! I think she needs a raise.

Good call! Maybe so!
Camera Girl did a great job!
And she's beautiful.
YUP!
Fun to watch! Sure beats working myself. Looks like Ken put that tractor in HI and ripped the shifter off. 👍
I ran in low gear if I was in hi it would just be a blur
Yup!
HAAAAA!
It obvious you guys don’t waste time!
Pretty cool, i fill my burner twice a day, basically every 12 hours, used to throw those big chunks in till i broke 3 fingers.....
Ouch!
hi there always enjoy both of you guys . but hears my 2 cents . thats a very nice splitter but a bit slow for the 2 of you . but as anyone can see it works great john
Yup, it works pretty good!

Chris and Kenny,
love watching your videos, im sitting here with 75 degree weather, wishing i were there.
trapping and cutting wood, what a nice piece of property. chris your video cooking lunch for your buddy was cool. you boys know the good life.
i hope your trapping goes well, im a outdoorsmen as well, and you guys are showing how its done.
what area of wisconsin is it your in trapping, im not looking for spots, just a nice place in the country.
be safe ,
enjoy your time together.
Thanks Mr. K . Way up north, on some lakes.
wow \you can get lots of wood in that boiler
Almost a face cord!!!! HA!
Good job men!👍👍
Thanks!
Definitely some nice logs for a processor. Those ties are nice, no bark or sap wood. Good seeing the two of you working together. Did you get a chance to use the tractor and back blade?
Thanks Jim, there is a bunch more videos coming!
Nice work ! If I could I would give you guys 2 👍
Thanks Bruce!
dam tracker they need a recall on bear holder lol
Maybe so!
That John Deere is quite the machine. Or is it the operator.
Cute tractor/ mower, and yes great operator!
I imagine Kenny has some kind of uncanny natural immunity to the cold.
Yup, never stop moving!!!!!
Thanks Chris! Bet you were wishing Ken's saws had heated handle's!
The one Chris was running has heated handles
The one I was using does, it is awesome!
Something about this. Woooooooooooooo
Yup!
Chris tell Ken on loading firewood in his bucket when the wood comes off his splitter. If he will lay the first logs parallel with the bucket in the back, then stack the rest like normal it will push the front of the firewood over the front edge of the bucket but he will get another row behind them??
He will read this. Thanks!
looks cold
Yes it was!

Few things…
1) jumping the gun on release time this morning. You don’t get 1.5hrs pay for that only comp time.
2) where is Ken’s zip ties? Poor guy has to hang on to his baton like a male cheerleader
3) I think ken needs to come and put some seat time on orange blossom and see if it’s up to his standards.
Thanks for watching Garny!
I'd like to see Kenny's face running the 12-22
I am sure he would like it!
Need to get 5gal bucket put kindling in it and fire it up so y’all have a little heat going
We do make fires some times but then work does not get done!
What do you think of the smaller processors like the Range-Road for a small firewood operation like yours?

Hire braelynn to be your full time camera operator! Did a great job. Spending time with grandpa she will remember it forever.
Yup, she did good!
Ken's tractor is getting a work out.
Yes she does!
You guys are a hoot to watch, Like two bulls in a china shop.🤣🤣
Thanks for watching David!
Ken needs an Eastonmade!
Yes, he would get a lot of use from one!
Is Ken your brother?
Yes he is!
That looks like a Central Boiler.
A BIG one!
has he been drinking lol
Maybe one!
i don't mean to be picky, but if you trained your attention a little more to properly gauge the length of those logs you're looking to turn into firewood, you wouldn't have to rely on the metal rod with the magnet on it to get your size. Just sayin'.
I can cut fast with the gauges that are made with cable ties and be accurate at the same time.
3/6/23 Are the railroad ties you get rejects from the Railroad Companies ?
“Cosmetic” reasons ? Thnx…
Rejects from the mill that makes them.
if he had his forks closer together say 1 foot apart he could go in and cradle the logs to pull them out then pick them up no chin involved just saying
Maybe
Work like this deserves a good stout beer, not that light Bush brand!
Send some over
@@kennethcarlson8713 Will do next time I'm the the Appleton area and Chris can hold a few for you. Maybe this summer when I tow my boat over to Lake Michigan from Columbia County.
Sounds great!
Maybe so!
👍
Thanks!
Read the title with a full stop rather than a degrees. So, Firewood at-20. F in Ken's woodyard. Why so harsh I wondered.
Did it get your attention and did you watch? AHA!!!
need mason jar never spill your beer and keep wood chips out or drink faster lol
Ha! I will tell him!
Hey wouldn’t a Cuttin table be better for cutting wood up so you don’t have to been over so much need to save that back
Maybe so, but it would add a lot of time too.
Holly smokes how do sell any wood when got one them boilers. That load wood heat my house for 3 days.maybe longer.
Yup, that is a big one!
Kenny's woodyard is flatter than yours. You oughta take some back home with you!! I could use the flat ground even better than you!! That dang splitter is slower than mine!!

He had the rack last year to, maybe you need to go back and re watch!!
@@InTheWoodyard Can't believe I missed this one for a whole year! Nah! One viewing is usually enough!! ha!
So ken, a lot of loggers prefer chokers to chain. Why chains in your wood yard? I assume you have a reason with your experience.
I normally just use the forks but there was too much snow in that ditch so that's just what we had to use
Ken said it.
No, I don't think I've ever worked hard enough or had enough clothing on to be sweating at -20. Even the Carlson girls are tough and up to the task though. GNI
It is actually pretty normal.
I don’t think there’s another two man team out there that could keep up with you two.
Some where there is
We are 1/2 the men we where!
I can't understand why more woodcutter's don't do this. Just throw some old logs on the ground to protect you saw from hitting the dirt! Doubles the chain life! Work smarter not harder!!
YUP!
Why not move the splitter closer to the pile of split wood and eliminate the need to use the tractor as much?
I'm putting the wood where I'm going to pile it
What he said.
Where you’re going to ‘pile’ it? You mean stack it or what? I speak Wisconsin and that didn’t make sense to me. I’m not in the lumber business but I’m good with wood especially morning wood & beaver although I don’t have to trap mine. You boys have a nice time in the forest & keep dropping great vids.
