Doing that mulching in winter time was likely the better move, cuts back on the chances to stir up yellow jackets or ground wasps. Plus its not just a near impenetrable green wall. This did get me thinking though, as to why not just have you tear it all out with the 220 when you had it there but then comes the question of where you' be able to put it if not dig a burn pit and bury it all.

We got started and things were going great right up until the world went crazy around the mulcher. Friend had forgotten he had pulled an old trampoline bed off into the woods.

It sure pulled the drum to a sudden stop though - fortunately it didn't warp the drum when it wadded up in it.
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, Chris to you and your family!! Great videos. Thanks for sharing!!
Merry Christmas, Chris. 🎄🎄
Wishing you and your dearest loved ones a very happy christmas time, Chris.. thank you for all your videos of your projects and on the farms.. love to you always from Australia
That looks like the property where you just finished the massive dam. I would love to see the pond after all the rain we just had.
MERRY CHRISTMAS Cris🎄
Right behind the big pond job! That is one good machine. Thanks for sharing. 🇬🇧👍👍👍
Merry Christmas to all.

Merry Christmas to you and all your family, i don't comment on your videos but i do appreciate all of them thanks 👏👏👏👏👏👌👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks
Merry christmas everybody
Lovely pond in the background!!! Wonder who made that diamond appear!!!😊😊😊
buried 'treasure' in overgrown thicket that like always fun. aside from mulcher ingesting a couple tires , trying to floss with barb wire. each time you use mulcher Chris you getting better. behind the fence was a disaster, it looks 100 times better now. Happy holidays Chris, enjoy some time off
“A Tire!”….wonder where that came from….guess homeboy finally picked it up from behind the dam and chucked it over the fence….real nice!
Dr. Destruction with a mulcher! Great job! Thumbs up - as always!! Have a wonderful & safe Merry Christmas!! Jim
Am i the only one who liked watching the hydraulic pressure gauge on the mulcher?
The high flow Takeuchi high flow has really made the mulcher perform
That fence wire " protects " the mulcher blades 😂
Good morning Chris❤😊
This lot looks familiar!!!! Just saying. Love the munchers! Amazed every time I see them being used.
I can watch this for an hour don't listen to those who say
One can never be too careful, near fenceline
That's a perfect site for a giant pond...
That's one of the hardest lessons to learn, no job is finished until everything is cleaned up and properly disposed of, when you leave trash behind it becomes a hazard for you and everyone else.
@18:34 YEET!
Merry Christmas Chris, your a good man , God Bless you
Merry Christmas to you and your family
Friend of friend does clean up work. Doesn't have as nice a mulcher but he told me before hogging the area, he walks it and has a metal detector on a long handle. Found many a hazard. But ideally, who has that time you ask, well you know how much time costs and down time costs. And yeah, its a go and pray work...glad you have bolt cutters and you are doing this in cold weather as no worry of yellowjackets! Merry Christmas to letsdig18!
Welcome to mulching !!! It will wind just about anything into the head !!! I once would a 10 ft piece of 3/4 inch rebar up in the middle of the woods !!! No idea where it came from !!!
Wow , that has some power !!!
I was all like, “HE IS NOT GONNA RUN OVER THAT TREE….. oh ok…. Well now what’s he gonna do, can’t mulch a whole tr.. oh……. Nevermind”. That’s badass.. 😎😂
Merry Christmas Chris and your family, hope you all have a great one!
I hope you show us the sharpening when you do it. Thanks.
That brush hog gives instant gratification. Merry Christmas Chris.
Little late watching have a merry Christmas and all the best for 2024 can’t wait to see what’s coming up the mulched Is a beast 👍👋🇨🇦
Good looking job with that machine!! Bet that makes quite the noise when it gets wrapped up with wire!!
I could be wrong but that fence looks extremely familiar… way way back in the beginning start of the mini lake.. and the building colors up on the hill are super close… and if I am not mistaken this would be on the other side of the Chain-link fence🤔🤔 lol I tend to pay attention to detail when moving into a job site. There are several Landscape scenes I remember being on the other side of the fence … 🤷🏻♂️ but I could be mistaken… but regardless that is way WAY better job than my brush hog when your done it doesn’t look like a nuclear blast or a tornado!! Nice and extremely neat
We all see why these drum mulchers are the preferred machine wow like a lawnmower going threw grass, heaven help anything in front of this monster. Merry Xmas guy's hope you have a good holiday and Happy New Year
There's a good perspective view of the backside of the dam giving some sense of scale.
Merry Christmas to you and yours
Dang! I’d forgotten how good that mulcher was! And satisfying to boot!
I do love the way a mulcher can clean up fast.
When is the sawmill gonna have your deck boards ready.
Man, I wish I had use of that mulcher at a place where I am from in Pennsylvania. There is a cow field that I watched thorn bushes grow bigger and bigger over the years till they are a good 20 feet across. I always thought of having the ability to clear those for the cow's sake more than the farmer.

Goats will fix that, given time. But they'll go on to eat the grass right down to the soil.

@@Skorpychan: That's why you ask around about "borrowing"/"renting" the goats to turn the weeds, etc. into fertilizer, and return them as soon as you start seeing any bare ground, or grass stubble in the area of your "project". 🙂
The mulcher is a "handy dandy" machine, excellent results! Thanks for the video.
Good morning, Chris! I want to thank you for another year of awesome videos. This may sound cliche, but keep up the great work! Hope you and yours and all the puppies have a Blessed Christmas and a Happy, Healthy, Prosperous New Year! God bless.
Fire, destruction and mulching Things to make my day
Looks like the most recent pond build in the background??
That’s where you just finished the big dam?
I still think the 973 fitted with a mulcher would be awesome 😉👍
Wait till you mulch over a bumblebee nest. Just stop and make sure all your windows are closed then shut off your mulches and skid steer turned off. You will think you in a hail storm with the force they hit the metal. We only had brush hogs and no cabs on the tractor. I would shut the tractor off locking the brakes and getting under the tractor for protection. It was insane how many times they would hit the tractor.
merry Xmas to you and your family thanks for the videos

Doing that mulching in winter time was likely the better move, cuts back on the chances to stir up yellow jackets or ground wasps. Plus its not just a near impenetrable green wall. This did get me thinking though, as to why not just have you tear it all out with the 220 when you had it there but then comes the question of where you' be able to put it if not dig a burn pit and bury it all.
Who just abandons chunks of fencing and old tyres? That should have gone in for recycling! At least all the brush is being recycled into soil now. Even though it'll only grow back again as soon as you turn your back, it's good to have organic matter in the soil.
I think that is one of your better purchases, Chris. It does such a good job. You and your family have a fine Christmas and New Year!
Best thing to carry with you on those mulchers is a battery angle grinder cut off disc's and extra batteries lol.
Nice reddish brown wall there on the right around 16:00.... what's that all aboot? Beautiful mulch machine. I bet you will buy a new set of blades for it, and re-condition the old ones. Less down time, and easier on the back. I spent many a long hour with a pair of vice grips and a grinder sharpening up a Mott flail mower! Happy Holidays/Merry Christmas to you and yours, Chris. Thanks for all the great video of great work.
Unprofessional contractors with little or no work ethic are the persons who leave job site debris for others to find regardless what is damaged or the costs of repair/replacement. As Jack Webb said as Sgt. Joe Friday in “Dragnet”, “You (in this case, a-clown contractors) make me want to vomit!” I yield back. Great site, Chris. I’ve learned a lot from your site
Buon Natale e Felice Anno Nuovo🎅
Happy Christmas and New year to you Chris....... been a fabulous year of videos.......
Thanks for the video of mulching brush great job 👍❤️❤️ it. Take care of yourself and family and Winston and be Blessed ❤️. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family and friends.
A friend hired a mulcher to help clear some woods behind his house and he asked me to bring my chainsaw and handle the bigger stuff. We got started and things were going great right up until the world went crazy around the mulcher. Friend had forgotten he had pulled an old trampoline bed off into the woods. It sounded like a Huey had landed in the backyard when it grabbed it and there was a cloud of leaves and dirt covering the mulcher. It was a significant emotional event!!
