    Glad i had time to see this video! Been missing your laid back, "nuttin' i can't handle confidence!" I haven't had extra time to relax & watch. Got me another Great Grandson to help make my days shorter.😊
    Thank you for the lack of potty mouth. I sincerely appreciate being able to watch you with the 8 &12 year old Great Grandkids. Im trying to show them hard work can be enjoyable, too.😊
    Have a good week, LD18.

    That branch falling was scary. Having watched you for a few years now, it's clear you take safety seriously. Your situational awareness is impressive and yet the odd thing can happen. Thanks for sharing balloon #2.😉It's funny yet sad those things are everywhere. This is going to be such an interesting project. Thanks for bringing us along, Chris.

    Chris - when I’ve asked before about an attachment for the 220 that had a grapple, stripper and cutter on it I was told it would have a huge price tag $250k upwards…. can’t help but think again that working single handed on a job like this would cut ‘your time’ processing fallen trees down which release you to do other things?

      @njonebale7889 Месяц назад

      It’s not that hard…there’s nothing in the ground to worry about and dig around, all you have to do is break up the roots and look up before you push the tree over so you don’t break off a limb like he did and smash the machine!

    It seems like those bigger pine trees should be desirable for the lumber companies. Do those diameter trees still bring decent money? If so, do you have any trouble getting someone to haul or do you use the same hauler you use for pulp wood? Maybe not all of them are diseased and rotted. The 330 will definitely earn its keep with those big boys.
