    Great snag on those poles! With so many uprooted trees, have you considered (or do you like) the tables, yard art and various items you can make using the roots? Goggle it sometime and maybe get some cool ideas. Enjoy your day you 2 and have a great Livestream💜💜💜

    Light poles make excellent corner post. We used them on my grandfather's farm when fencing it as a teen. They absolutely suck to install but that's maybe because we installed full length poles as deep as we could get them. They where still there long after he was gone and his wifes family sold the land last I seen from google earth.

    Hey Andrew, you should carry those logs out instead of skidding them. Skidding them will fill the bark with dirt and debris, making them less desirable for fire wood!

    • @TKCL

      Agreed but I can only carry about a 7ft wide log out in several places.

    Andrew the poles are great for corner post. I like using log thongs while skidding timber myself. If later you decide on building a corral for sorting or doctorin them cows. The power poles and old gaurd rails work well together

    Instead of a skidding winch what about an inexpensive harbor freight winch on your truck receiver or a homemade 3 pt mount?

    • @TKCL
      @TKCL  10 місяців тому

      I've seen a few people build those. They are very slow and put odd torque and angles on attachment points. Plus the battery does not last long.

      @TKCL I've been doing a lot of research in wood pellets, mainly for heat. I found out that it easy to make them, and you can make pellets out of anything organic. So they can be made out of grass and leaves that are easy to get a hold of.

    Those utility poles that are green are good ones. It’s the dark brown ones that were treated with creosote and have a tar like substance on them are the ones you have to be cautious of. You should have no problems getting enough poles to build your fence line with the amount of pole’s having to be replaced in the region from the storm.

    • @joshohoro
      @joshohoro 10 місяців тому

      don’t let the creosote scare you away from using them…just don’t get the dust on your skin when you cut them it feels like the worst sunburn you’ve ever had.

    • @TKCL
      @TKCL  10 місяців тому +1

      I purposely picked the green ones because I could tell they were relatively new.
