- Spring is fast approaching. We are cutting some scattered pine trying to come up with a load. In this video I cut the largest pine on the whole lot. Maybe even the largest pine I have ever cut.
Cool just cool well done 😊
That is an American with a Canadian accent. Looks like you have a big, wonderful playground to play in. Carpe Diem!
Thanks.
See that off road diesel buddy . We pay over $9 up here in 709 😊. Your right everyone sharpen there own way in chainsaw. We put 4’ foot on back off chainsaw . Take two screw to install them on the saw .
Great video I like cutting pine trees the Mack is coming along nicely hope to have it done this summer thanks for asking keep up the great video.
Look forward to seeing the old Mack hauling out of the pit. I should be down to get some material as soon as my road is no longer posted.
awsome video i can smell that pine up here in central Maine
Thanks 👍
I just subscribed ✌️
Thanks
That looks like a 24000 Hood? With a live heel. We have an old 24000 mounted on a self propelled, articulated steered carrier. Its got a Franklin skidder drive axle, with a 60" circle chop saw and log cradle bunks. Its probably around a 1980 or so.
Yep she’s an old hood 24000 from the 80’s. I just rebuilt the John Deere motor on it. When I bought it it had a 54” hood saw that came with it but I never used it and ended up selling it. It used to be self propelled by a hydraulic motor driving the truck rear ends they put half a skidder on the front of it. Kind of a cob job. I disconnected it and just move it around with my skidder. I don’t use the live heel too often because I don’t have a slasher or do chips but it does come in handy from time to time. This hood has hoses that run down the center to the legs and slasher instead of a hydraulic Manifold so you can’t go round and round with it or the hoses will knot up and eventually break.
@@TimberKing Yup, same hose set up on ours, some times you have 2 step out of the cab and look down below the boom mount 2 C which way the hoses are twisting up. I use our circle saw if I have a lot of pulp/bolt trees to buck and sort, if I have more larger log trees I will buck by hand. Either way your blowin oil out, by machine leaks or chainsaw bar oiling.
hi there nice show john
Thanks
Where in northern Vermont are you ? Im in Barton, near Willoughby Lake
Im in Montgomery. I was logging up in Westmore 3 or 4 years ago. Up Peene Hill all the way to the end by the state land.
@@TimberKing awesome !
What mill in Canada takes your white pine? I would think $520 straight through is a good price?
It is West Bromme Sawmill in West Bromme Quebec. (The trucker had told us they were paying $525) They actually paid us $510 MBF Straight through. They didn’t complain about what we sent. They scaled me back a few inches (they called it a 28” dia log when it was about 32”) on that big one because of the red rot. 36 Logs brought 7400 Ft but we had alot of big pine there. They don’t pay trucking so it only would make sense if you are close to the border. Our trucker charged us $80 MBF I believe.
Just subscribed, where you located ?
Thanks. Im in Northern Vermont right up by the Canadian Border.
Hi just subscribed, what mill in Canada is paying $500/MBF for white pine? I have some on the landing now
@@upstatenewyorker9684 The mill is right across the border from Richford VT. Its called West Bromme Sawmill. Thats the name of the town in Quebec that its located in.
Where are u cutting ? What state
Cutting in Vermont
@@TimberKing if you ever need saws ported in your guy :-) or repaired
I live for FAT pine. That will add up on the truck!!
There is nothing like cutting a good pine lot. The wood comes out so fast and truckers like pine just as much as loggers. Our trucker was there 4 hours after I called him and told him we had a load of pine, And he has left my hardwood pulp sitting there for over a week now. I wish I had more pine to cut on this lot
@TimberKing
Isn't that JUST like a damn truck baby?
At one point 3 years or so back, I had wood on SIX landings... leftovers that the truck baby didn't want to haul because he could haul fresh logs.
But when a tree guy called, or a construction site had wood, even a quarter load, my shit waited. Had to keep those guys happy!!
I have a new trucker now. Not a lot better, but some.
@@oldtimerf7602 It seems like all the good truckers have either retired or can’t get their medical cards. These younger truckers cater to the mechanized crews. A couple different times in life I have bought a truck and did my own trucking. But I ended up logging all day and trucking all night. It became too much and plus the DOT was a real nightmare. Those guys sure know how to ruin your day.
