Kurt, it's run off hydraulics so it can go from a crawl to the speed you see.

Thanks I have two of the newer 203Ts now. The ones I have are a bit stronger than the older one. It was way faster on the swing than the older one. I had to put throttle valves on the swing cylinder lines to slow it down. I actually have a 600lb GMT035 cutting head on one of the cranes so it can handle some weight.

@@archertwo I agree the swing is very fast it has to be handled very sensitive. Good hint from your side with the throttles. Perhaps I will adjust it also at my crane. To me it is a bit confusing/interesting that your newer versions are stronger than the old one. To my knowledge the older ones lift 964kg at 3 meters and the newer ones only 805kg at 3 Meters. Perhaps this is different from Country to Country.. I asked you because I am actually searching for the reason/solution to upgrade my new Version from 2019 to the lifting Power of the older version. Perhaps you know something more about it?

@@waldeslust2036 my tractor hydraulics are set to 2900PSI that may be higher than yours or it could well be that what is sent to one country is different as you mentioned.

You'll have fun building it for sure. But then the work starts.

Tommy T, you'll need two pieces of 1/4" plate. The one welded on the round rod is 3 3/4" x 2 3/4". The one welded on the pipe is 4 3/4" x 2 3/4". In both pieces cut a 1/2" slot 2 1/8" long to fit the Bridger #5 spring. Drill a 5/8" hole in the longer plate one inch from the end. That is where the pipe will be welded. The pipe is 5/8" inside diameter and is 20 inches long with a 40 degree cut on one end. The round rod is 13" long with a 60 degree cut on one end and a notch in the other to accept the locking chain link. On the square cut end of the pipe weld a link and a half of 3/8" chain. After welding everything together you may have to tweak the angles of the plates a bit to accommodate the Bridger #5s to your satisfaction. You should be able to get everything else off the video.

@@archertwo Thank you!!!

@@tommyt3269 , just a trapper helping out another.

I don't think they are sold anymore. I made one for myself and some a couple of friends.

@@archertwo ok thank you

Thanks Jake. I hit on you button too. Will be looking you up soon.

Worst thing is that you're pretty sure you can't match what you had in furs before the next sale comes up.

Thanks Barry. I usually send mine off from Yarmouth but opted to drop them off in Digby on Thursday morning this year.

Thanks. No dawgs with mange this is a big plus even if the numbers are down.

Thanks Dwayne. The dawgs are nothing like the ones you have out west but we do with what we have. It's still warm enough that I still a few beaver sets out in small steams with slow flowing water. Not our usual mid-January weather fro sure.

I threw out more sets today and plan on more of the same tomorrow and Wednesday ... Should have over 100 sets out for the next video ... Lotta work !!!

You will reap the rewards from your efforts.

Thanks for watching. I'll take what they give me for the fur. I have no control on prices or they would be way higher. LOL

Thanks. I expected to see some of your trapping videos this year. Are you still trapping brother?

@@archertwo not this year unfortunately.....financially couldn't afford it and didnt have a fur shed.....getting back on track now so some fur shed videos will be coming soon

Prices are not good but trapping is not all about the price you get for your fur. Good to see you getting back in the swing of thing with your fur shed.

Thanks Jason, most of it was trial and error. Just lucked out on some components that worked well first try.

No need for a hydraulic saw when I still have a few spare saws left. I'd much rather cut in the rain without a cab than cut in the sun with a cab. No need for a cab with the amount of wood I split. I just pick my days as I need the wood.

Smoking will do that to you.LOL He actually forgot his helmet in his tractor where he was working. He only came out to see how the processor was working and stayed to help out.

My saw idles more than half the time. I've been running the older saw on the processor since I built it about 10 years ago. I don't thing idling does it any damage. I'd say #100 chain with K1 attachments every 16 or so inches should do the trick for the log deck and for the infeed trough. I'd take 1 1/2" angle iron and weld pieces the length of the k1 attachment to push the logs. Bolting them on might work too but welding them permanently in place would work better for me. Have fun fabricating.

Yeah, it works pretty well if you're not in too big of a hurry.

That I can do. You can look at my earlier videos and find an early version of the processor. After that I may have do do another video too show you some of the newer "improvements". LOL

The belt is the same belt used on a Hakki Pilke 1X37 processor.

Now that I think of you might mean the live deck that puts the log in line with the saw and not the belt that brings it to the saw. If you look on one of my previous videos you'll find one titled, "log deck live feed". You'll see what brings the logs in to feed the belt.

@@archertwo on the log deck live feed, how did you send drive to the sprocket? i was thinking of making one of these with either an AC motor, a DC motor, or an excavator final drive motor

I just used a Char-Lynn hydraulic motor. If I remember right it's maximum rpm is around 250 so it has lots of power to move the logs down the deck. If you're using hydraulics you can easily pull some power to run the live deck from the system.

@@archertwo wow never heard of a char lynn motor, they look perfect, its the same as an excavator drive motor but the correct size and correct price. i have a log splitter with a log lifter. I could use the log lifter ports from the splitter pump and hook them to the char lynn motor, is that correct? then i would be able to use the log lifter control lever to function the char lynn motor.

It does the job. It will take an 18 inch log quite easily. A 20 incher with a bit more work.

Straight wood goes through it quite easily. Crooked logs require a bit more elbow grease.

I made it about 10 years ago. I keep adding or changing parts to make the work easier for me.

I like it! Necessity is the mother of invention. 👍✌️❤️

That and a bad back had something to do with using hydraulics instead of manpower.

We can only get what walks through our sets, the good and the bad.

@@archertwo true enough, wish sometimes we could send them back lol.

I'm in south western Nova Scotia.

@@archertwo I used to live in NB I trapped for quite few seasons when I was living there. When I retired from the military I decided to stay in On I love trapping here it is great, I manage 2 registered lines for most of the winter. thanks I like you videos Ps I like your wire bobcat cubbies, made out of old eel pots or the material that eel pots are made from lol I used to have a commercial eel licence in NB
