Hello everybody welcome back to our Channel Two Brothers Outdoors!
Today Tim’s changing his blade.
We’re getting ready to saw a nice big fat pitchy white pine.
We have an order for some two by tens as clear as we can get them, so hopefully
this log is not too many knots and it’s nice and clear on the inside.
We’ll get the order out of these and then we’ll move on to the hardwood for the same order.
All right guys if you’re new to our Channel hit that subscription button.
Hit the notifications bell because you don’t want to miss our future videos!
If you’ve been with us for a while welcome back.
We are glad to have you all!!!
Right let’s get sawing this huge white pine .
Could be much longer,why?
Just wanted to gets on here you know it’s only been an hour and a half.
Yeah I’ve been home about an hour.
All right add misery to my headache.
Today you know grandma was slow but she was old grandma didn’t have no teeth.
I got teeth it’s called wind drag……
Okay so let’s take a quick look at this log and see where we want it to lay when we make the first cut.
Now we seem to have a little little bruise of some sort here.
We look at the end of the log on this side it’s clear.
The end of the end of the log on this side and we got ourselves a little knot right there it goes a little deep.
I think what we’ll do is we’ll try to roll the log and get that bad spot that crack, not crack this little spot right here.
That’s got black which is indication it ran pitch at one time.
We’ll turn that up make our first cut, open the face and get that off there.
See what we got here.
Something a little interesting we haven’t quite seen before.
Now these logs and early summer late spring they really bleed pitch.
This log’s been on here overnight.
This pitch is not unusual but underneath it here this puddle of pitch.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen that before!!!!!
That’s quite a puddle too!
I mean that’s pretty good size .
Dang I think sir it’s like Gill like syrup except real sticky.
Okay he’s got his reference marks on there.
Kind of interested to see what’s underneath this black mark right here.
All right here we go.
all right so that was pretty nice because that black mark it’s very shallow.
Didn’t go very far.
We’re hoping to be able to get these knots out of here.
We need you as clear as possible.
All right he’s getting ready to make his next cut.
We’re going one inch down.
I love that hydraulic log roller!!!
Oh, that’s solid!
All right so it’s pretty clear on this side.
Not bad at all!
All right we’re gonna stand it up and start cutting two eyes out of it.
Let’s hope for some clear wood.
It’s a man right there!
Alrighty so now we’re gonna start ripping off eight quarters so we end up with two by tens.
All right so it’s not real, it’s real clear at this end but it’s got a lot of you up here.
We’ll see what happens.
You want to be able to get a few of them out of it so see what we got.
The other one waiting to come on the mill so we’ve got these glitches down to usable lumber
that’ll easily become a two by six maybe even a two by eight.
So, we made a final cut on that last big log.
All right so there’s more knots in this than we wanted.
The next log down is this one right here.
It has one spot in it that’s not real good right there but we’re going to try
to work around that and see what happens.
If not does the law become siding well.
We didn’t see this when we took this tree down but if you see this line right here
that’s a lightning strike!!!!
That’s what that black mark is right there.
Well let’s see if we can get off of it all right, so this big log is really bowed in the center.
He’s going to take it down four quarters at a time keep it light easy for me and then once
we get a flash bot opened up here we’ll roll the log over and try to get 10 inches out of it.
Well it doesn’t appear as a lightning strike went too deep.

Skidding Winches

 

Big thank you to YouTube channel Afleetcommand for this great view of the Hud-Son Forest Equipment Uniforest 65H forestry skidding winch!

The type of operations possible with the remote control of the winch is on display here. “And it’s like a pickup truck, once you have one it’s hard to image life without one”

Well, I ran out of wheel traction on the hillside. I figured I would leave it there. I could have gone down and around come up this way spent an extra

half hour thrashing through the woods but let us see what happens. You will probably see it when that log hit the ground.

What happens is it kind of does a strain relief and you’ll see it kind of curl up where the base of the log is about a foot, foot, and a half off the ground. So, it didn’t put any weight on my three points.

There was no lift on it at all therefore I didn’t have any weight on the log. The tractor ran out of traction and I got kind of sick of screwing around with that.

I want to see if I can get a few logs out before summertime sets in. I realized I need to get that unit, Hud-Son Forest Equipment Uniforest 65H remote control logging winch on that tractor.

One of the things you can do with an operation like that is well I am going to inchworm that log up the hill because I can remotely, from the tractor, release it.

Go forward, set the blade down to the dirt, and reel it back in. Release it again, drive forward, set that down, reel it back in and do it that way.

The reason I mention this is a lot of people say, “How come a Hud-Son Forest Equipment Uniforest versus some of the other brands”?

I would say really what this is about is remote versus the manual winch.  In this situation right here is why.

Because most of my farms are on the hillside and especially when the snow’s on the ground.  I guess a year and a half ago I was doing this quite a bit trying to pull them up out of the swamp.

Just did not have the traction like a big skidder and I would have to basically inch worm the logs up and out.

I can’t imagine doing that operation where I must hop out of the tractor, operate some controls on the back of the skidder winch versus sitting right in the chair.

So, there’s a couple of things that are interesting about this.  Number one I like the stand they have here. Basically, you pull that out and it slides down when it goes back in.

It goes into the hole, so you can pretty much drive away from it after you set those stands. Another thing I like about it is it does have an option for a control box.

I have it unplugged the control box would plug into this right here. We will plug into here. The plug is up in there.

It uses basically like a trailer plug, so I just went down to Tractor Supply and got one of those receivers. Wired it right into my battery and it has a variety of different places

where you can hook up with your three point. I must make it as narrow as possible otherwise when that thing swings an arc behind the tractor.

It will run right to the tires and my three point will hit on the slide right there and not let it go far enough over. To do that if I have it on the inside spot right there.

If you have a bigger tractor maybe outside maybe up. You know you can do that and plus just a standard link right there. It does not need Hydraulics.

It has a hydraulic pump on board so, when you operate the winch you have to have the PTO on the tractor going and that builds pressure.

You’ll see it on the gauge and once you have pressure it has a hydraulic ram that releases and engages the clutch. Now this thing is rated for like 12 000 pounds of pull which is quite a bit.

There is the receiver up there for the little remote operation but if this failed I have a box where I can operate with a box and it would be like a normal non-remote type of a of a winch.

It has a bunch of slots. See, I do not like holes, I like slots. Holes are a pain in the neck to get the chain in and out so having the slot here I think makes sense.

I got a spot for my wedge, driver, and when you have a really heavy pull you can take that cable and bring it down to this pulley that’s magnetically held there.

If you yank on it that breaks the magnet tension. You can set your cable down there so you’re not going to tip your tractor up and over. It has a spot for a saw, but I do not use it.

I like it. I mean I like the way it operates and so you can tell. If the tractor is not running, if there’s hydraulic pressure, you can operate the controls.

If you watch this right here basically, that’s the release of the clutch and the engagement of the clutch.

It is done with again the hydraulic pressure and once the hydraulic pressure drops of course that will not operate.

That’s one of the things you got to pay attention to. There’s a bunch of adjustments and I’m not going to get into that. Right here is where you plug in the you would plug in the control box.

Now like I said what I did is I just wired that directly to the battery. That’s why you have power to operate the system right now it is powered up currently.

Here is what it says about itself. I don’t know if it makes any sense and one of the things it has which I am a little bit, I am not sure I like yet there’s not a

lot of places to grease. I am a guy who greases everything. All the time. So, I have the PTO Shaft or the drive shaft but the bearings are supposedly sealed.

I don’t really see a place to get in there with a grease gun. I’m going to tear it apart later to see but I don’t see any place to get into it with a grease gun.

That’s really the only thing I don’t like because I prefer to have a more simplistic bearing in the a place to grease.

Now that cable it is about 150 feet long. Right now, I had to cut a section off because it started to fray. At some point in time, I’m going to have to go up and have them put a new cable

on it but right now it is going to work for me. It will work for the rest of this year for sure. So that is the Hud-Son Forest Equipment Uniforest 65H that I have and it is an older one.

What I am going to do now is go down and fish out that freaking log. This is why you have one of these!

I may have to do it one more time we’ll these are about 40 or 50 feet. That one might be about 60 feet.

You know good-sized trees. You can tell from the back of the tractor there in the 22 to 26 inch diameter range.

They are good trees and I got a few I’m going to take out. You know I got that one over there too

when I get to 25 feet I stop and I get a truck in here and haul them out. That is the game we play. Now another thing I can do with that log winch is sometimes I want to push

the logs up a little bit. It’s a whole lot easier using the lock and winch to nudge the logs. Then it is to use the bucket.

You know start bending on the bucket frame So yeah, back to the saw again. I’ve got to get down in there so I have

to clean up some of this mess from this winter. That’s a basswood tree which is actually quite long.

I will pull it up and out then clear up some of this here. Get down there and take down one or two of those ash trees.

See if they are too far gone. Now in this direction you won’t see much in the camera but

there is another 10 to 15 nice sized maples in there. I will probably take half of them and leave the rest.

The other thing if you look you see those nice straight beech trees. The ones like this one right here got a little bit of blight started.

If I get it now, it’s nice and straight and it’s big enough in diameter.

They can use those for mats for the big cranes. I count one and then there’s not this one is too small.

The one behind it and there’s a couple over there that I think will fit into that category. So, I’m going to take them and I don’t know

exactly when it will just be. One of those when I feel like it because again it’s

not going to be much money. It’d be about the same as firewood, but I want to get the beech out of here as much as I can.

I got to clean this up and they take grade twos for things like railroad ties. So that top right there that I normally would have left I’m going to pull that

up and out.  Just start getting it up and out and see if I can get any of it sold. Here we are back again.

Two saws and one thing I have discovered. Graphically is the 572 it uses a like a half as much fuel for the same amount of work as that one does.

That one is a hog you know you wouldn’t notice it unless you ran them side by side you know what I am saying.

Maybe not that much but there is a difference. It is a noticeable difference in fuel usage. Wow! Thank you!!

Very well, so that’s why you got that goofy curvature. That’s as far as it would reach through.

I really needed my 28 on this one and I froze that bearing in that thing. I had it pinched, and I just kept it going see if I can cut that

way out because it was smoking. Eventually he came to a stop, so I’m not sure I can salvage it but I’ll give it a try.

I guess as far as the category of why you have two saws sometimes. I do not have a lot to do but we got something to do

might be wondering whether or not there’s a difference between my junk clone saw and this machine right here. There is absolutely no comparison

now that this is broken. I remember when they were about even but right now, that one there has got issues going on with its carburation.

This thing fired up in three pulls and just screams. Does what it does and now we’re going to do another a little bit of

locking winch gymnastics to get that tree out of there so it doesn’t wedge between two trees.

Thank you!!

Well hello folks welcome back to our Channel Two Brothers Outdoors!

Have you ever wondered what the perfect log looks like or if there is such a thing as a

perfect log?

Well today we’re going to show you exactly what a perfect log looks like.

If you’re new to our Channel thanks for watching!

Hit that subscribe button and the notifications bell so you don’t miss our future videos.

Okay guys let’s get sawing this log.

I’ll show you the great aspects of this perfect log.

You’ve maybe have noticed that Tim and I both are wearing aprons.

Well, when you see us wearing aprons you know we’re sawing white pine.

White pine is so pitchy especially this time of the year.

When you cut the tree down the ends just bleed pitch and it gets all over everything.

So, we wear the aprons to keep the pitch off our pants and our shirts.

So, once we got the log sitting on the mill the way it wanted to lay, we measured.

We took a tape measure, and we went from the center of the log straight up six to eight inches and then.

we took the day measure from that same point and went straight down six and

eight inches.

Also, what we’re doing is we’re sawing the log six quarters at a time until we get

close to that mark that we made.

That is six and eight inches out from the center of the log, and I’ll explain to you why in just a minute.

Ultimately what we want to end up with is a 12 and a quarter inch thick cant

laying on the mill.

The purpose of the marks is a reference point, so you don’t go too deep to screw up.

You can now see the purpose of the sixth quarter is.

Each piece of wood that comes off this log while we’re bringing it down to

12 and a quarter inch.

Each one of those pieces of wood will either be made into a two by four or a

two by six depending on how wide it is.

The reason we went six quarter is a lot of customers will order two by sixes or two by fours or two by eights.

You must remind them that it’s not like store-bought wood which is an inch and a half thick or six quarter thick.

It’s going to be difficult to nail it because you don’t have as much nail or as much screw

coming through the wood as you would if you’re using dimensional lumber or what you would buy from Home Depot.

So, a lot of times the customer will choose to go six quarters thick that way you won’t

have a problem screwing it or nailing it to another piece of wood.

It makes it a little easier for you because you can get more product at six quarter instead of two inches.

Just in case you were wondering yes we charge the same for six quarter as we

do for eight quarter no difference in the price.

All right we’ll have this can down to 12 and a quarter inch thick in just a minute.

Once we get it down to 12 and a quarter inch thick we’re going to

stand it up, dog it down and get the bark off that side.

Get it flat and then we’ll roll it over and start cutting our boards.

Okay so at this point we’re going to take the bark off this one edge and get it flat.

Then we’ll roll it over, lock it down and start ripping off boards.

Before every cut we will make on this can will be at six quarters

because everything that we comes off of this can be utilized into either a 2×4 or

another two by six.

If it’s wide enough a two by six and a two by four.

Okay so every cut from here on out will be a sixth quarter.

Just a couple of cuts and we’ll be pulling 12 and a half inch wide by six quarter inch thick

boards off this log.

We are going to get some Beautiful boards out of this log!

Like I said this log is perfect.

There isn’t even a single knot in this lock and the log was so straight.

Almost no taper at all so we didn’t have to use the toe board on it as well.

This is a perfect log.

Now if we were sawing by ourselves or if I was selling by myself or Tim was sawing

by his self we would just keep cutting and not take any boards off this can

until you got close to the throat of the saw.

Then of course you’d have to remove one or two boards to keep cutting

but right now I’m going to remove boards as he cuts them so he doesn’t have to

waste time bringing the mill up higher and higher each time he cuts a

board.

He’s only going to have to bring the mill up high enough to clear the last cut.

So, I’m going to be busy taking boards off while he is sawing.

These boards that I’m taking off are absolutely gorgeous!!

There’s not a single knot in any of these boards.

This could have been clear one by pine which brings pretty good money at Home Depot

but with no knots in these two by sixes this customer is going to get very

strong dimensional lumber.

12 and a half inch boards.

We stood them up and locked them down standing up.

This one cut right here is to produce a bunch of two by sixes.

Now we’re taking the flitches or the pieces that we cut off would bark on them.

Now we’re cutting them in two by sixes or two by fours.

Whichever we can get out of it.

We do have another order for two by fours, so we’re always planning.

That’s how you get the most out of a log is as you’re cutting plan for

not only the order you’re cutting but anything you can get off for a future

order that you may have to fill as well.

Okay, it’s going to sound unbelievable, but we got 20 two by six by eights off

of that log 20.

That is incredible!!!

Oops it looks like the video looped back to the beginning.

Well, it didn’t.

This is the next log that we’re going to cut to finish out the order two by sixes.

That’s going to be on the next video guys.

All right thanks for joining us!!!

Hit that subscription button, hit the

notifications bell!!!

We hoped you were able to get something out of this video.

Until the next one we will catch you

later!
