Obviously you have a good plan and feeling for how to thin these stands, keeping a good flow from stump to lay-down, and not damaging the "leave" trees. A good skill to have, and the forester(s) should be happy with the results they are getting from you and your crew. tks for the video today.
I have a question, I see a lot of videos with equipment having to push log trucks through the mud and I know that many log trucks do come with lockers to the rear axles essentially making it a 4x4 but I wonder why there are virtually no log trucks with a traditional style 4x4 with power to the front axle. I have seen videos where the truck gets the front tires out of the mud but is unable pull its self out of the mud. If the front tires had pulling power it likely would have made it out. I do know Kenworth has the C500 but you don’t see many of them on the roadways but they have a lot of T880/800 utilized as log truck but none that I have seen have power at the front axle. By the way I am in the United States, overseas may have trucks with power to the front axle.
Never stand close to a trailer when loading or unloading. Accidents happen, and, it serves no purpose. You never know when a tire or track might slip and flop the machine on its side.
Like logging videos though. I worked out west in Washington state logging for 11 years. Loved it mostly. Running equipment anyway. Back in the 90s. Sure wish we had cellphone cameras back then. And earlier. Some of the footage of yesteryear logging would be amazing.
@@CuttingEdgeLogging_Thomas well I wasn't trying to insult or anything. I'm no expert in logging. It was a great experience and wish I was still doing it sometimes. Where I logged was in Washington and we sent our trees to lumber mills. So it wasn't anything and everything and clearcutting. It was usually select cutting and had to be big enough to get lumber out of. Even our trees weren't always huge trees. You take what is there. I seen a couple other videos where you had bigger trees. Logging is logging. In glad people like you take the time to record and post videos. So people can watch, and see what is involved in harvesting timber and where the products they use daily; come from. So thanks .
on another note dont know if thats yalls truck or a contract truck. I was wondering how those full fenders hold up. I want some to keep mud off headache rack but am afraid of loader man putting one to close to rack, having to cut butt and dropping on them.
You stopped popping up on my recommendation list I had to finally go to your channel I’d thought you stopped making videos but apparently UA-cam just stopped sending you to my recommendation
Just found your channel love it, reminds me of when I stayed at parents home in Pearl River, Ms. Log trucks up and down US-11. Noticed in this video you said the "Parish" hwy, are you in Louisiana, since only state with Parishes. Also what mill were you going to was it one on Bogullosa, the paper mill, remember that lovely aroma. Really enjoy these videos. RLTW
I believe anytime we’re doing actual work we have all proper PPE on and we’re not required to use safety glasses unless we’re using a saw or power tools.
We have timber company land at the end of Our street, I’ve seen it thin and clear-cut several times over the years, it must be a cheap ass timber company because they never have added rocks in the roads and they get plain sloppy and the trucks get stuck every time it rains
718 looks like to much fun to be called work ! ....but that is work 😁

Bogged down sounds better than stuck.
Thanks for watching
That seat fix is just a natural pine air freshener for the cab!
But it made it rougher 😂

What’s the advantage of a wheeled buncher opposed to a tracked one with a boom?
Love it!!! Awesome attitude and commentary!!! Stay safe my man!!!

These toothpicks make the cardboard box’s most all of your online orders are shipped to you in
@@CuttingEdgeLogging_Thomas I don't buy stuff online. Are you offended by a little comment?
Not at all...explaining what we use the trees for.

Cool video Thomas and work safe out there in the mud
Thanks for watching
Love the variety of stuff but know that is sorta frustrating with weather changes. Looks like a great track!
Just part of the game lol
Great video. At least you got an air freshener in the 718
Thanks for watching
Doing a fine job
Awesome videos
Thanks for watching

Full fenders work good if they are installed right. Get some thick diamond plate ones, they hold up well.
Walks straight away after Drug test comment 🤣🤣 Same on most jobs Brother 🔥👊
Nice load of pulp wood
I didn't understand a word this dude said but I watched the whole video #interesting
How could you not understand?
I have a block of wood holding the seat in place on my old timberjack skidder

Need some road mets
Get Lil tractor with a sweeper for the road
Did you get all the blowdown stuff cleaned up in your area or is it getting too old to salvage?
Still picking stuff up. Areas around us will be doing that for years to come.
Where you located I want to work with yall
i build wooden model logging truck replicas so i always enjoy watching your videos
You probably already know Putting the logs farther over the front bunk would give the truck more traction.
I'm pretty sure Thomas knows all about logging and the little tricks...

In south west Louisiana....our mill is in Oakdale
@@CuttingEdgeLogging_Thomas Thanks I know exactly where it is.
Need to clean cut that. What are you leaving 40 or 50 bacell era
70-90 just depends on the saw logs left
More logging
That's why I work for r Stuart timber
Huh
And oh my your cutters still broke 😳
💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥
Michael on a shovel an broom southeast VA 757
Thanks for watching
I jump every time popping tires back on
Thanks for watching
Gotta use that harvest king either it's just weak enough not to singe anything but it will bead a tire up
Put the duals back on the 718
It’s probably going to stay parked this winter
Logging toothpicks
Do you enjoy getting things shipped to you?
One safety issue I'm seeing..wear those hard hat's and safety glasses and ear plugs..be safe guys..

Not every logger works at the quality we try to.
semi truck tracks
I will say this though you guys are careful with your rigs
$150,000 trucks, dad will kill me if I’m not careful 😂
Better give him time to study for that drug test
😂
👍🏻💯❤️
