Great content. I love the length of your videos. Long enough to tell the story but not so long to put you to sleep! 👍👍👍
Good, that’s the whole point. Some of these guys ramble on for ever.
Little dozer is a great machine for a timber mans needs. Nice fell once again. Love the spurcut stump in the forfront(5:49). Thank you for sharing. Have a great week ahead!
You to bud!
Great job Feller. Love the sweet Dozer.
Thank you!
Man that thing just floats, that’s crazy. Be nice if there were any newer setups like that, those things are rare.
Yes.
The j d. Dozer was the the ticket, i have seen some crazy machines , this configuration is awesome , never seen anything close to it , stay safe and positive .
I like this comment! Positivity is part of the solution. I feel like everyday is a gift and a chance to succeed.
@@Good.Fellersive noticed how you respond to negative comments. Gotta say its refreshing to see someone take the high road.
@halliwilljon I try to have a little class.
I’ve never seen anyone jump cut, only heard about it. I’ve heard it called “tabletop “ in my neck of the woods. Looks sketchy as hell! But, it’s clear that experience and an understanding of wood characteristics is needed.
You’re exactly right.
That dozer is just great !
So practical !
Great video !
Thank you!!!
That is quite the machine! It’s crazy that it’s that old, but still does the job (and probably even better than some new stuff). Keep up the great work!
Hey, thank you! I love the old girl.
I know everything cost money but have you thought of adding the sweeps to the front of your R.O.P.S. Not having the rock guards cover those bottom rollers makes it so much easier to clean out. I can tell you take great care of it. Very handy little machine. Cheers.
I’m going to add the sweeps and add some cages in the future.
Awsome. We has a 350 john deere with winch and front loader.sreet pads. Used it plus 225d timberjackto get logs out.had o76 super stihl chain saws. Tandem twin screw 290 hp log truck with heavy duty pup trailer..we cut alot of good jobs..I really enjoyed the life in the woods.hunting and logging..keep up thee excellent work brother.
Hey thank you!
Sounds like you had an awesome set up.

@@Good.Fellers me2 thank u sir means so much.
Nice dozer
Thanks!
Another great video. Keep them coming
Thank you!
That’s a neat little John Deere dozer
Thanks you!
Really enjoy your videos, keep them coming! Would you mind making one speaking to the way you cut trees down without notching them. I don’t exactly understand how that works. Thank you
I will in the future.
I live in a stick house and I approve this message 🏡 👍👍👍
Awesome!!!!
I would love a little dozer like that JD. Great for the wet spots. Ive cutting a soft maple/ cedar bush and it would definately do a better job than my tractor or skidder has. Also just for building roads. So multi purpose👍
Yes sir. It’s a great road builder.
I know you’re a busy man I was wondering if you would be willing to somehow give me some advice in regards to selling walnut logs . Cut a bunch early winter and most valuable 3sided log paid 4.50/cad sold to mill down the road. Buying cable skidder and cutting next patch this season and don’t want to get completely fkd there’s some large veneer logs in there. Ontario Canada. Any advice much appreciated man good job with the channel so far videos keep getting better thanks
Im no expert in Canadian Walnut but I would assume that the trees that far north would be slow growing and not of the quality most American Veneer companies want. Again I’m not familiar with the area. I would guess there could be an exporter there you could find. ?
@@Good.Fellers good to know will see what i can find thanks for reply
450c came out in1976
👍
When you jump cut, how do you keep the tree from sitting down on your bar when you cut everything but the last strap? Genuinely asking, thanks.
Kinda like a constant bore cut. Hard to explain in comments.
Love the videos. Learning a lot from your channel. I was wondering if u hand file your chains
Yes I file both round and square. I was given a grinder as a gift and have never used it.
@Good.Fellers not sure if it's something you have time do or want to do but would like to see a video on some pointers on how you sharpen your chains because your saw cuts like laser beam
I will do one.
1989 not 69 the 70's JDs had raised stamped emblems. The 80's had painted emblems. Nice 450.
Hey thank you!!!
@@Good.Fellers Nice dozer. the serial # will tell the tail of the year i didnt know they made 450s in the 60's. I'm in Alaska and have seen many wide track 450's all of them were beat to sh!t urs is the best 1 i've seen in years. i have an 1982 450c with 16''pads and a backhoe>> the thing is useless as a dozer with the backhoe on but that beats a shovel any day. The floatation on the wide tracks is crazy. I saw a super wide track for sale once it looks like that thing could drive on top of packing peanuts:0
@bearbait2221 it walks on water lol
Were these wide track machines just standard track frames spaced out with wide tracks added, or were they special track frames? Thanks much. Take care.
Not completely sure, but I think it was an add on to regular machines.
Jump over to Hoskins logging channel brother see how we do it here in Ky…they havnt posted in a min but I recon there bout to start back…such a cool dozer and I’ve always had that idea of wide pads for soft ground on small machines….…👊🏻…there family team works like you do…
Nice
Hey Goodfellers I have a question.... what fuel mixture do you use 50:1, 40:1 or 30:1? When I bought my 2 395's husquvarna recommends 50:1 , I figured I'd ask because you would be the man to ask especially about 395's
I buy orange stihl 5 gallon mixers and mix it with 4 gallons of premium pump gas. I think that’s about 40:1.
395s are not up to epa standards so they recommend running 50:1 for cleaner exhaust, and they only let so many in the country a year for the same reason. I was told these things by a Husqvarna rep 10 years ago.
A few months a ago I bought 2 395's and I love the power, I'm a hardcore husky fan, I think I may start running 40:1 now that you said that to keep them lubed up more, stihl makes good saws but I personally don't think stihl will hang with a husky in the cut
@ryanpoole4795 I always thought Stihls are for Log buyers, and Tree Service guys, not Timber cutters.
I may be wrong.
Lol
Nice little machine
Thank you!
