Use a treesaver 3-4 inch strap at your corner anchor. It will prevent nearly 100% of all possible bark damage or scaring and having a very large contact surface area it won’t bite into the bark

Yep I always use treesaver straps.

That's extremely useful to me. Thanks for posting, and thumbs up.

Very skillful, Educational and Informative video. Thank you for taking the time to post. You make it look incredibly easy, but comes with years of experience. Nice to see.

Thanks Carlos. Experience is a big part of it but video editing goes a long way too. Cutting out some of the boring parts might make it look even more easy.

Yep I used a snatch block redirect before. I still have the video of it. It wasn't a breakaway block so I had to stop and disconnect when it got to the snatch block.

Brother start your chainsaw first before measuring 2:00 minute mark 😅 just kidding. Love your content thank you. For the time you put in

Thanks for the video, I need one of those. Cheers Chris TheRuralProject

Wilson, when you are clearing slash with a milcher be helpful or is it better just to rake and burn?

Very good job

Well done! I have a problem maybe you would be willing to give some advice on. I dropped a 24" at the base walnut log. 18' long to the crotch. It's down in a pretty deep gully, I'd say about 15' down, maybe 20'. I have a trailer with 6 ton winch and a log arch on it. I'm just not sure the best way to get it up that uneven trash layden hill. Are snatch blocks the answer?

I'm too cheap for a auto release but, I've used two snatch blocks to get logs to the tractor pretty often. Brent

I know how it is. I was too cheap to get one for a long time too. I managed to go without one for a long time.

But wait dont they say to measure twice. Oh i don't know just carry on.

What's the biggest tree your tractor handled. It sounds nice n smooth running.

I have a few videos on my channel of the tractor pushing its limits. One of them was of the winch pulling a sugar pine, the log was about 16 foot and maybe 30 inches diameter on the top end. I may have even had to cut it into 8 foot lengths to get it all the way in. I have lifted Douglas fir logs with the loader, 34 feet long and 16 inches diameter. Much bigger than that it lifts the rear tires off the ground and loses traction.

What the biggest tree you cut down there?

@WilsonForestLands

Жыл бұрын

On this place the biggest trees I cut down or about the width of my 32 inch bar. Most of them are smaller. Unless they are dead or dying, I usually leave the biggest ones.

Good job on snaking that around. I like the setup. By the way : you pulled it to fast and why did you hook it like that ? And how come you fell that perfect good tree ? And why would you hook that snatch block to such a small tree ? Hope I got you on them ones ? 😂😂😂 Great job thanks for sharing. And by the way I tried what you did with that chain coming off. I bent my 10” bar and cut my hand . 😂😂😂

Where can I find a decent breakaway block? Want to stay away from cheap but don't want to break da bank. Thankz!

I got mine from Northeast Implement. That’s the only place I know of. But I haven’t been looking anywhere else. They are the dealer for the Farmi winch I have. I don’t know if it will break the bank but it might put a serious dent in it. I think it was close to $400. Expensive, but it sure has saved a lot of walking back and forth and walking up and down hills to go manually unhook a traditional block.

@@WilsonForestLands one more thing please. What diameter cable do I want for pulling 20" diameter logs that are 16' long? They are not terribly heavy since they are poplar and were felled a year ago. I sealed the ends, but I'm sure they're lighter now. Thank you.

@@timbarry5080 I am sure you could get away with a 3/8 inch cable. But I prefer 7/16 and that’s what I use. After 3/8 gets a little wear I have broken them before. The 7/16 is just a very nice size to handle. It’s stronger than I need, doesn’t kink as bad, and is light enough to be easy to handle. I am working on a video where I am going to go over these kind of details of this equipment I use. It will probably come out this coming week sometime.
