Good point on underslung pillow block bearings, there must be significant vibration on that grinder. Cold weather sure brings out the weak spots in equipment in a hurry. Hang in there young man, spring is coming, every day is one day closer to spring. Thanks for the update sir, appreciate the video and your time making and posting it.
That was excellent explanation of markets. I have enormous respect for you logger Wade. You are a true professional logger that cares about protecting everyone. God bless you
Heck yeah that puffed me up a bit, thanks man... I try to share any opinions I have without coming off errogant or deeply opinionated.. Hell I'm wrong half the time like anyone else
Hey, even when things suck I am thankful for you sharing so people underatand life. Prayers for your team and this challenging times. Thankful you are willing to be dedicated to your industry!!
Well said Ol Tator , love your analogy’s and glad you study up on stuff like Rock O feller oil company’s and history of the big economic picture . Keep Rolling Ol Scotty Kansas City
Great to see another video. For cold weather you need two things, a block heater and a battery maintainer. She will spin over like a warm summer day. Not that expensive
Man logger wade one thing I have always and will always respect about you is you show your ups and your downs I feel like social media is a place where most people show you only the greatness in there lives when the reality is we all go through hard times but unlike most you share your hard times with the world and I seriously respect you for that
That sure was a blast of cold we had for about 10 day's back in January ! Really appreciate the advice you gave me about a year ago on a 2005 JD 544 loader . Customer ended up buying it and it fit there operation perfect .👍
Hello Wade, thank you for sharing this video with us. I thought I would share something with you about the secret to living, all you have to do is keep on breathing! I hope your good days are coming your way again soon. Cheers.
Man you speak the language of the process in ways that really makes it easy to understand why being straight up with people as to be shifty and like you said squeezing your costumer so tight that the flow is slowed down and the bottle neck effect starts taking place and then it becomes everyones problem my take is that if stay with costumes that are fair and they care about the industry in the long run you guys that do the right thing come out better at the end of the day and Wade you knocked it out of the park to me and you are always jumping in and helping out where ever you can no matter what it’s 👍😎🇺🇸 NY
We had the same problems with a Bandit in 2000. Went to Peterson never looked back. I’m glad you pointed this stuff out maybe save someone else the Headache!
I am currently having my land logged and it’s so cool for me to watch this video from your perspective working with the logs! What a cool video! New subscriber here!
Have you thought about selling stave or stave logs to barrel company. Just saying here in southern Kentucky it's doing good. Great video and keep up the amazing work 👍. God bless you and your team 🙏
Bandit I believe did change that morbark tubs used to have augers what a pain both companies used to be family related till morbark got sold another thing I like is up swing grinder drums the down swing drums I've always had issues with wear
Man I always wondered why some go up... that's very intresting thanks for the info. I Didn't mean to be un appreciative, we do like our old bandit it was just one of a couple flaws that came out at an in opportune time
@@LoggerWade I've used up swing for years I have also done my initial breakdown with larger hole demo screens then ran that ground material through with the finish screens I shredded tons pallets and timber pieces like what your shedding with no issues
Keep chin up n chest out big dog. Up here in Maine. Biz super slow here too. prayer, hope and drive will pull us thru. Hats off to u n yours and the families. Loyalty goes a long LONG ways. All the best.
Pretty sure I saw a younger Wade in TV commercial. Defy channel in northern Indiana. Your brow was not as wrinkled as it is now. Responsibility weights on all of us. I have been watching a log house being built near me in north east Indiana. They are using undried logs with machined flats on 2 sides to 1 foot thick. Trailer load after trailer load were trucked in from Wisconsin. Every log had ends and or keys cut in. I assumes this takes a huge commitment in equipment and tooling. Tomorrow will be the seventh and probably the last day to fly logs into place with a crane.
Hey Wade. Local Stave Mill alternates between $25 a load and free loads depending. Not picking on your price, just for reference. I figure its marked free when they got more than they can handl and sold otherwise.
This is why folk wanted you back - life isn't like it is in the movies (or on a lot of RUclips channels !) This is reality and this is why we're here Tater 😉👌🏼
Hey Wade hang in there man. Have you ever used Bruner Bearing out of Louisville Ky.??? They have usually got in stock bearings that other bearing places have never even heard of.
Good ol name for your 592 saw would be slappy. I enjoy your videos an im glad to see your back on youtube. I came from a family of surface miners my pap owned his own surface co. Called anco minning so i can relate to you alot. Keep up great videos god bless
Hey wade the mill I use to work at some of them tie ends we would send in the chipper just have to be careful cause they can get wedged in their don’t know if you thunk of this or not keep you the great work and great vidjas!!!
When you are stuck with 12v in cold weather, voltage drop is a big issue. Many a time jumping a battery in cold weather I could not get enough power across from the donor power to the needy one. Putting a second set of jumper cables onto the primary set let me double the cable capacity and low and behold she turned over. Just a thought when it gets down around zero or lower temp wise.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, ideas and videos. Glad to see you standing up to maintain your integrity. Hope things are getting better. Wishing you and your family the best.
Thanks Wade for the insite to the timber business surely if it is a husky then you should perhaps call it the Musher, that way it will keep on going when you say it's name just like the dogs, Mush, Mush.
I have seen what your talking about wade ,when I was in business ,the cut throats, every one would come to me and want the cheapest price because there was a cut throat down the road , then with equipment sales , the consumer comes in and wants a tractor at $ 150 over cost ! I'm like, hey buddy you want me and parts here after the sale? I can't run to his place on nothing ....it would mess up the whole cart , I've seen it all in 35 years ..
Yes I can see that. To be honest I've been guilty of going out and buying lesser machinery and getting parts through dealer to fix up my cheap buy. The last loader we bought I went to dealer on though... Thanks for sharing
Holy crap Wade i haven't been on here in a long time! Thats an old bandit i didn't know thry made grinders back then! They make a hell of a chipper I've had a few now. Might wana talk to them theyve come a long ways with alot of great ideas.
This is why I like our Peterson grinders they have less berings and easy matanance they do final grind beautiful or take them to the woods and make great hog fuel. Here in nw Washington state its been slow since October but it's now just picking back up.
@@LoggerWade I see you are an early riser like me. Off to the plant to machine new part or repair something so they can keep making food bags so we can all have food in grocery stores. Have a good day friend. 👊👊
Door we bought a Peterson about the same size in it it’s no better it’s no worse it’s issues or it’s all electronic when the electronics work it’s great I’m talking to digital crap and it it when you get an issue shut the chain off it shut the shut, the disconnect, the clutch But mechanically Petersons built quite well
I’d love to be able to take 6 months to a year and come work for you I bet you guys take really good care of your employees you seem like you care about your people and I bet you are a wealth of knowledge if someone is smart enough to shut up and listen to you
Those underslung bearing mounts defy logic. A bearing should be upright and bolted down to the top of the steel member so that it can properly support the bearing. The mounting bolts should be running down through the bearing mount to the frame in order to prevent the bearing mount from moving up or sideways. That grinder design should have been checked by an independent mechanical engineer before being approved for production. We have had a scandal here in NZ where a civil engineer was creating false independent reports of his designs.
The Video beginn with little Snow bx6 the Sawmill. And You make new Tree Heap. Then Wade the Storekeeper, the Chief Mechanics. The first Manager from the Company what all can Make. 💪👍👌
Everybody is robbing Peter to pay Paul right now doesn't matter where you live. The thing that I think you're doing a good job on is fixing your own stuff. It might be old and hard to work on but if it's paid for that means a lot. Thanks for sharing.
Nice one, Wade Even better to see you keep smiling throughout 👍 I was bored and fed up and then you rocked up in my notifications and put a smile on MY face Wishing you every success bro P. S. Call the saw "The Predator" Or "Alvin Sawdust" * * Alvin Stardust was a UK entertainer possibly not well known in the US though
Just an idea, but a lot of the companies around here that cut cross ties sell their untreated drops by the truckload. I don't know how old you are, but if that grinder lasted that long before it grenades, I think you did good. The wood industry has been rough on a bunch of people, a lot of the same guys have been shut down around here
More things to break, and cost you more money, that’s why! Nothing is designed to last, it’s a bad business model for manufacturers, less profit if it lasts
Hey Wade, how hard would it Beto add a steel support under those bearings and then mount them so they aren’t underslung. From here it looks like a quality simple fix…little steel and a welder… obviously I’m looking at it from a RUclips video so there may be some obvious reasons this can’t be done
Your sounding alot smarter all the time lol keep it going . find time to relax enjoy life we grow old to dam fast. Give dirt perfect shit about his new farm lol .

Great Video. Very educational. My husband loves his 592.
Tell him he's got good taste
Great video and explanations. It's kinda the same in the residential side of tree work. So I definitely feel you pain.
I love when you show all aspects of a Logger from cutting the wood to the maintenance of the equipment!!
We don't need to hear the bad Wade. Just as long as we hear from you. makes our days

Sweet I don't exactly remember but yeah they good rigs for a catch all
You're a wealth of truth and knowledge. Pray everyone gets healthy and things level out for you. Hard workers make it happen.
Thanks buddy it will I got faith just venting mostly and a guy shouldn't get a custom to that behavior

Trying to keep an upbeat attitude will get you through it. Keep on keeping on, buddy 👍. Have a good one.

I learn something new with every video. Thanks Wade. Stay safe
Logger Wade
Very knowledgeable 😊
1/2 frozen logs are a huge pain in the Ash to saw.
Looking forward to the next Vidja, we had to deal with logs on the highway a few years back.
My gosh I've not got the log buying experience you guys do yet and that is kinda scary...
GREAT VIDEO WADE IF ALL COMPANIES WORKED LIKE U WHAT A GREAT WORLD IT WOULD BE SO MUCH GREED OUT THERE IT HARD TO TRUST PEOPLE THANKS BRO
Yes I know and trust is a big deal in a business chain
I am currently having my land logged and it’s so cool for me to watch this video from your perspective working with the logs! What a cool video! New subscriber here!
You are right about working together . Weyerhaeuser sure don’t care about the small time logger . Or the road builders . I know that firsthand .
Glad too see you guys busy and working good to watch your videos
Glad to see you are doin ok Wade!!!!
Super crazy to see what looks to be orbs dancing around, at 19 minutes to 20:00 minutes or more,
Love your videos. Keep your head up and keep fighting.
Have you thought about selling stave or stave logs to barrel company. Just saying here in southern Kentucky it's doing good. Great video and keep up the amazing work 👍. God bless you and your team 🙏
Getting there soon

Thanks so much big guy and thanks for the push. It actually feels good getting a couple things off my chest anyways
I’m glad I am retired. I know exactly where you are fighting markets, weather, and equipment. Been there, done that too !!
It's still fun even though a little sucky at times
Hey Wade hang in there man. Have you ever used Bruner Bearing out of Louisville Ky.??? They have usually got in stock bearings that other bearing places have never even heard of.

Nothin will find yer weak points like the cold! Nice to see the yard full before the mud is back.

Yes we tried that in the beginning, aggravating back work and same problem you just said

Happy Valentines day Wade, Get some, I think ya need it lol
I might recommend that you look at a Rotochopper I’m not tied to them at all. Just looked at them years ago. But their specialty is mulch.
Wonder if you could make a steel cradle to beef up underslung bearings from cracking
Good thought
i like how you keep a positive attitude when ting get hard
Thks for the vid brother ,it sucks sometimes for shure the first week of Feb I worked 2 hrs cause of rain
Sheww them days are aggravating
Harley Quinn always called the joker puddin. So I think Joker or Harley.
Man I love Harley Quinn that's a thought right there and my Grampa was my hero and his plane in WWII was the Joker
He flew tail gunner in a B17F
Hello Logger Wade & it's is Randy and i like yours is cool & Thanks Logger Wade Friends Randy
Thanks bud
Why would they use pillar bearings where the weight is on the mounting bolts themselves instead of the pillar?
Great video Wade 👍🏻
A really really interesting video. Keep up the good work
hi there interesting show , best to all john
I’d love to be able to take 6 months to a year and come work for you I bet you guys take really good care of your employees you seem like you care about your people and I bet you are a wealth of knowledge if someone is smart enough to shut up and listen to you
