I’m jealous Tim. You get to play with all the fun stuff
I know this was your first time running this machine but fortunately everyone else was an expert and all were willing to tell you how to do it. It's great to see the experienced guys sharing all that knowledge with the new guy. 😅😅😅
Ah,’that’s the way it is! We ALL like to share our ‘experience’, right? :-)
That is some gnarly beast! And it appears to be quite nimble in poor ground conditions. Impressive to watch. Blessings.
We have 4 of them!! Great machines
Amazing tree clearing equipment demonstration. Keep up the great videos.
Thanks. A differient machine than most viewers would see. Forrestry mulchers will come in higher off the ground and drop the head on a few passes as needed to cut the trunk, drop the tree, then mulch in place. The key is keep the head moving in any cutting direction.
Nice toy!!!
Looks fun! When you have fun, the audience also is along for the fun. Another great video! Cheers 🍻
That robotic machine is absolutely amazing. I wouldn’t have believed how great it works without seeing your video. I bet it’s lots of fun to operate. Very enjoyable video. Thanks Tim
Wow. Cool machine. They really are excelling with these forest machines.
Once the trees are cleared out, you might consider a series of small cascading earthen dams with an overflow valved control pipe. This keeps the water in the upper groundwater for your crops but can be released during floods if need be at a controlled rate. I've seen similar areas on our farm back in the 50s and 60s and it was the best small game habitat around, probably because you had to crawl thru it. No money to do anything with it back then. Soil Bank was a good idea back then, would be today. Lots of small fields and hedge rows and some natural ponds. How do you measure progress?

I watched one of these machines work through a Hawthorne hedge ... Amazing machine. ... Nobody on a tractor would tackle it but this machine made it look easy...
Definitely a different machine, I don't think I would do this kind of job without this machine.. You are having fun with friends. 😮😅🍔🍔🍔🍔🍔🍔🍔🍔.... Stay safe.
Depending on your location and needs, these and other brands can be rented. Yes, it is still expensive but helps break up the cost on a per job basis
That remote controlled mulcher is pretty cool!
I was excited for this video and it did not disappoint! I'll take two please!!! Lol.
Looks like a fun time.
Thanks Tim, pretty amazing machine 👍🏻
Mulching and forestry work is really fun to watch - I've gone down the rabbit hole before (after YT recommendations via watching your channel) that've kept me quiet for hours! The robot mulcher is a really cool piece of kit! I do think we need a top ten list of equipment that you've broken now though please! 😆🤣
Interesting machine...
still neat to see
That is really impressive
What a beast!
That’s really something. Like you said, just need a couple of attachment points to recover it.
that is an impressive beast of a mulcher
Great video!
Thanks Floyd. Glad you liked it. We thought it was fun!
"mulching water takes a lot of horsepower"....that is the sentence of the day for me!🤣
The teeth on the mulcher head are designed for impact resistance and don't have a sharp cutting profile. The 'ram and cram' approach is needed to get them into the work, smoking is friction when trying to gently introduce the head
"I've never driven a machine that I didn't get stuck" hahahaha..... nice.
It’s true!
That is one working machine
6:15 driving something with remote control is nothing like driving a piece of machinery like a tractor… it’s truly easier said than done.
Maybe our UA-cam buddy Pete at GCI Turf could use it for his business. Lol
You're setting a trend. One parts run per video.
Your best video in a long time.
Well thanks! What did you like about it?
@@TractorTimewithTim I love the destruction of unwanted vegetation. I wonder if city folk ever understand the need to destroy certain vegetation
This could be a great rental unit or part of a business that clears wetlands.
Tim, you might check out the Marshal Tree saw attachment for the Skid Steer. I would call it a toothed shear. It was manufacturered here in the US. It has recently made a partnership with a European company, so I don't know their current status. It might be something that would (wood, haha) work for this situation as well.
I cant afford it but darn do I want it!
That ROBOMax is in sane, a guy could is in the comfort of his pick-up truck in his 80-90s and operate that thing👀
Nice machine, also much lighter than a feller or that Bell machine from last timw
keep watching. That "Bell" is back in this episode. ...oh, and keep watching to see the deep water mulching.
There is a LOT of equipment and attachments that are "out of my price range." You don't have to go much over 40Hp to get there. Lower that to 25Hp for when I might actually own vs. lease. Happily I have a aquaintance who owns big stuff and accomidates my wishes fairly reasonably.
I’m sure someone will make lots of money with that Machine. 100, thousand out of my price.
It is going to take as long to clean that thing as it did to use it.
I dunno. Washed it up pretty good in that water!
Tim you are getting a lot of coaching
Probably needed to pay more attention to that coaching!
Genius, use your channel to improve your property while turning out good content. Sometimes I almost wish I wasn't so lazy... nah ! Seriously it is a good idea.
You need a lawn chair so you can relax while you operate that machine.l
Funny they would make a machine for that type of work and not have a winch or a dedicated tow point. Seems that would be a must.
That little tracked machine is a VERY slick machine!! Is whoever loaned or rented it to you EVER going to do so again after this?? Too bad you didn't have it mid winter before the water filled in.
Good question.
Y'all took a really big bite to chew on this project. Lots of work here. One bite at a time.
How would this machine work on the tower project
Would take that stuff down with ease!
That thing is a beast!! I get purchasing it would be crazy, but I could see a rental place having a use case. Do you know if they rent these?
reach out to Brown Equipment brownequipment.net. They will be able to hook you up with rental.
BROKEN TRACK!! glad im retired and dont have do that repair anymore!! 48 years enough!!❤❤❤❤❤
Hard to get a good seat of pants feel on a remote machine. Very cool none the less.
Yes, you are right! It is a bit difficult to know exactly what is happening. Having said that, I wasn't too eager to be "in there" with a lot of that work either!
@TractorTimewithTim Haha you got that right! Im impressed that thing didnt drown.
You should rename your channel “Broken Tractor Time with Tim” I have never seen anyone tear up equipment like you do!!
Working equipment will break. If someone tell me he has a tractor for ten (10) years without a breaking down, he’s not working with it.
@@historicbeef 😂😂😂😂😂👎👎
If it don’t break you ain’t using it. You just watch a bunch of people with pavement princesses.
@@historicbeef exactly! Pavement princess. Even accidents happen, so if nothing ever breaks you aren’t even using it.
@@Zanderthelab 😂😂😂😂😂👎👎👎👎
What are you going to plant in that wetland?
Nothing.
looks like the HP is a little low on that machine, it might work better with a light weight mulcher head.
i think HP is probably fine in most situations. I'm pushing it really hard in this water, and on these HUGE trees.
Question. I know the purpose of this project, but I don’t know the laws and regulations of wetlands. Hypothetically let’s say that someone didn’t want to improve the crop performance like you are wanting to do; you are currently building a pond. Could someone build a pond in a wetland? Watching this video and seeing all that water and brush makes me think of habitat for bass. I wasn’t sure if the regs allowed a pond to built in a wetland.
I dunno.
They should use clips from this video for their advertisements! I can't believe what you put it through and only got it stuck once from what was shown.
Twice. We showed pulling it out twice.
I’m trying to understand. Been watching this series since the start, you can not farm this because it’s protected wet land from an ancient river bed but they will let you remove everything from the area. In the end the equipment looks to be tearing up the area pretty good. What is the end goal by removing the timber?
Thanks for continuing to watch. I've tried to explain, but apparently I have not been successful :-)
The trees and underbrush hinder the yields of the nearby rows. Basically 60 ft on each side is negatively impacted.
- Moisture is used by the trees which is needed by the crops.
- Trees 'shade' the crops, preventing them from getting the necessary sunlight
- Deer and ground hogs use the brush to hide, then eat the corn along the brush.
(don't worry...there is PLENTY of habitat for the Deere around this area in non-farmable tracts)
Now, about the 'rules'. They allow us to remove the trees to ground level. We cannot remove them by the roots, as we would normally do. Translation...we have to leave the stumps at ground level. We can cut or grind them right to that level.
The ruts caused by the equipment are not relevant. They will recover.
In 1984, we coulda cleared this and leveled it sufficiently to be producing amazing crops on it. This big ditch would have been filled in to nearly level...just deep enough to drain the water. In 1985, the government stole it. No compensation...just a stroke of a pen saying that the land could not be used for what its most valuable purpose.
We are obeying the rules. We are simply using them to the best advantage possible given the situation.
If successful, we will have tremendous crops right up to the side of the area we cannot farm rather than losing 60' of valuable crop all along the ditch.
I hope that helps.
@@TractorTimewithTim thank you! 60ft on each side is huge.
@@TractorTimewithTim for what it’s worth, I’m not a farmer, but I understood everything you said from the beginning.
I live in Ohio, they have many of these in all the fields out here. In some cases we have more of these than they do fields sometimes it’s ridiculous and absurd. In fact, I believe if the government would’ve refrained from writing that law, it would help constraint all the flooding that we get because if it. It would allow for so much more drainage and so much less unnecessary water and pollution. In some cases, I believe it’s out of control. When a tree or something in the wetland dies and falls over it, arguable, doesn’t get properly cleaned up and just lies there and rots. This includes the stumps that can’t be removed. I’m not saying farmers don’t take care of the stuff that dies and falls over, I’m saying the government took away land from the farmers that could’ve been used and in turn is now neglected.
I know you're using isotunes headsets, but are you using Bluetooth to your phones then just all on a multi-way phone or Zoom call, or are they on like FRS radios?
Product we are using is available here: amzn.to/3U08MAo We use a combination of the SENA and Stihl Advance Procom. They work on the same network. Randall is using the Sena in this episode. Notice how is audio is more clear.
@@TractorTimewithTim awesome, thanks! It has become apparent with all of the shutting down equipment and talking that Dad and I have to do to communicate anything more than hand gestures, that we could probably use something a little more technical.
@@TractorTimewithTim why is the sena more clear??
These days what can we afford 😆 I'd say they probably run about $120-130,000 witch isn't bad if your in that line of work. Look at the price of escavators and farm equipment. It's not the price it's the need. The price justifies itself with the work it does for you
I would rather be able to play with a giant Prinoth
That would be fun too.
@@TractorTimewithTim they make all kinds of really cool stuff. And they are really massive pieces of equipment too!
@@TractorTimewithTim dear finance committee,
We need more fun and expensive toys, i.e. giant prinoth and johnny 9.
Sincerely,
The Money Tree
and that's why they call it a wetland...
Tim, Years ago you talked about a Christian Healthcare plan. I live in NW IN and I am needing insurance. Can you please share contact info. Thanks
Samaritan Ministries. Mention me for a referral.
Municipal????? As in the city should have??? As in we would be taxed for there for we would be buying it….
Yes.
Tim cant afford a 80k machine.
Also tim, lets sink this toy into the water so we can clean it.
its weak...
Are you kidding!?!? Did you see what we were taking down with it!?!
@@TractorTimewithTim little trees omg ITS TOO WEAK
