    Staggeringly beautiful machine being operated by a very skilled man who is clearly completely comfortable with it in all sorts of working conditions and terrain. A highly efficient timber harvesting operation.

    One great machine and operator. The amount of wood this crew moves proves it.

    U guys get the real production with that rig. Awesome piece of machinery. Also safe. I'm sure it takes the safety hazards way down due to getting the man out of cutting by chainsaw. Derek knows what he's doing.

    That's one of the best bunchers made, local logging company bought one brand new to try like it bought another one I can't remember if they bought a 3rd. Tigercat makes the best tilter on the market since Madill went out of business 10 years ago.

    I like how Logger Wade style of selective logging because the practice of managing tree trstands.

    • @cotontop3
      @cotontop3  7 років тому +2

      +Howard Garney Wade is in a completely different area, which is hardwood country and that's how you have to manage a hardwood stand. Here, we are primarily pine and it gets thinned at 16 years and then clear cut at 30 and that's just how u have to manage pine.

    • @06lbzduramax3500
      @06lbzduramax3500 7 років тому +2

      Howard Garney nothing wrong with clear cut logging when done right. Here in Maine it's a little different than where Tim is I do 75 percent select cut logging but there are cases where you are better off to clear cut and let it regen.

  • @thomasreed5247
    @thomasreed5247 7 років тому

  • @jamesshanks2614
    @jamesshanks2614 7 років тому

    I've seen the cutting wheel throw stuff up To 300 feet away. Kindly keep in mind as we don't want you to get hurt...
    Back of that machine should be marked in large red letter
    DANGER
    STAY BACK 300 feet
    Makes the insurance guy's smile when they see that.
    Every feller buncher I've seen working in the woods is marked that way
    Definitely the way to cut timber in today's forest.

  • @suebarrett1485

      Excellent safest way to cut timber today. Only real pain is when you cut a dead or rotten tree and they break into 3 or more pieces and fall onto the cab. Every time that happens the operator looks up at the roof and thanks the designers and the men that built it.
      Tigercat the only manufacturer that was founded by loggers that couldn't get what they wanted from other manufacturers so they design from the loggers perspective and build with input from the loggers that run them.

    just save clear cutting logging for land development use. But if you are the type of people that go back and replant new trees it is showing a good example for your kids like I learned from my grandfather on farming that is respect the land.
