Glad to have found your channel, lots of good info for someone trying to manage a woodlot in NS. We used to do something similar but with a tractor and power trailer. Only real difference is we'd pile the wood off to the sides of the trail so could get the trailer between the piles (we were loading by hand). We switched to using a yarding winch a couple decades ago. Leaving the trees full length and with 100 ft cable we don't need as many trails, don't have to move as much brush, and can reach trees in places that would be difficult to drive into. I'll have to look for a set of those log tongs, they look a safer than carrying a pulp hook around.

Good video very helpful

I ended up here after searching for Keto 150. Watched the whole thing - good video hits on market reality. Timber (pulp aka chip here in the UK) like that is in very high demand here in the UK - firewood market is very strong. Clean straight 4"-18" diameter processor roundwood - can't get enough of it. New Subscriber!

Hey. Happy to see that you have found a buyer for pulp but if it’s so difficult to sell the pulp your dealing with how about talking with others like yourself to try to set up your own pulp export. I’m sure there’s others like yourself in nova Scotia in the same boat maybe together you could all help yourselves possibly. I’m doing basically the same thing as you in Ontario have my own processor just bought myself a forwarder. The struggles are real here too, but it’s usually weather elements. There’s no problem with getting rid of pulp or material. All of my pulp goes to Quebec I know truck not cheap, but even shipping to Quebec from Nova Scotia gotta be cheaper than overseas Keep up the good work hopefully you’re able to continue finding markets to move your material

Look 👀 like your into the hot 🥵 weather for drying your firewood 🪵 for this winter 🥶 coming 😊.

Sweet. The Lever Beaver is firing on all cylinders!

Lookin good !!! That thing makes short work of those logs !!

Yessir!

Great day to be in woodyard Troy . 😊

Nice video you get the maximum dollar value when you saw your logs that way !

You should nickname your processor "The Lever Beaver" 😁

Good to see you !!! See you next weekend !!!

Nice set-up Troy!

I been using 543xp for thinning my tall fir stands; don’t want to lug the extra weight of 550 or 562. It is a handy saw that turns up enough to deal with the stem sizes I need to drop.

I like butterfly throttle, but I am odd.

I'd recommend not taking that thing on pavement lol a guy tried it ones an ended up in jail

Neat little clip like watching this stuff those back tires got some tread on them

Have you ever thought mybe this machine is not meet for you to run, I’m just saying

Don’t worry another 60 yrs plus the land will have timber again growing on it . Back in the logs 🪵 day with a chainsaw we logger run 28” to 32” bar less bend over on the back , plus back them we could 3 to 5 timber together in a straight line same on time and plus put up 9 to 11 cords day in spruce and fir in pulp 🪵. 😊

Yeah Lanky , Liberals want to shut down forestry . PCT here N.S. Bowater , Northern etc. 15 years . Yeah do my own thing now . Changing my woods to mostly hardwoods , No more pulp wood I had enough government B.S.

I almost want to unlike the video because of the digs it sounded like you were throwing from the 3 minute to 3:40 mark of the video 🤣

Keep up the great efforts.

Having to much fun

Tony your right clean it up before bark rotten get into it for sure . 😊

Tony nice little load of firewood 🪵. 😊

The good days.

Looking like a good start to this years firewood season! I don’t mind a little chainsaw work from time to time- but it sure cuts into the profit!

Absolutely wonderful to see such pride and skill. I was taught in the Maritime Forest Ranger School in 1985 that forestry is a systematic operation...just as you explained it.

Always nice to see a good operator. Not sure I'd let him scratch my back with that clam but maybe. The guy that said wood is as good as gold nailed it.

Log hauler Vincent is a good operator. Nice load of logs Troy.

Looks good , some BTU's there !!!!

Love it😊

Thanks, a wood pile like that is better then gold in my eyes.

Real nice looking pile I love watching someone run a loader that’s not banging it on the stakes you can’t hide experience that’s for sure ! Is that guys last name Croft that was driving that truck your are so right about how dry it is fingers crossed rain for this weekend !

Wow, awesome job by the truck driver. How many truckloads are there?

Is this wood to split and sell for this coming winters use? Seems like it may only get a couple of months drying time after splitting to season.

Not the first pile he’s made with that loader. Nice to see someone take pride in their work for sure

What is that 'whip' on your saw handle for??

Bigg Dann the legend

Great video nice working machine sounds like a Cummins engine to me I might be wrong on that . great idea to get that small wood cut with a harvester hard to cut productivily by hand . Love the loyal dog you have there .

It's great to see what I consider natural forest operations. Back to the basics and professional. Great video too.

Good work! Any chance you have a job opening? Im a forestry tech out of bc. Cant find no work out here!

That's the fastest moving Tree Farmer ive ever seen . My father in law has an old C5 from the 70s, and my brother ran a C6 for a number of years. Those two old machines weren't as nimble as the one in this video.

Great video,that dog living the life! I spent alot of free time as a young fella with my uncles n dad on these machines,but I remember the Tree Farmer a little different cab configure configuration.Was a Duetz air cooled if I remember correctly, back in the 80s.Was a good machine

Perhaps an interview style video with Dan and a walk around of his machine. Great video as always. Stay safe

Good to see it's getting done. Have you found a pulpwood market ?

brush is some tidy
