I used to have a paralyzing fear of chainsaws, (I’ve screwed myself up with a lot less sophisticated equipment) as a builder I’ve cut trees down with a saws-all, more than few times over the years!!! In Maine a buddy got me a job driving a Timberjack 450D, (with me never having driven a skidder before) 12 hour shifts bouncing around in the thing everyday!!! A week in, we switched sites to a tract that hadn’t been cut, so a Jonsered 2049turbo got put into my hands and was instructed to start dropping trees!!! 90 cc’s of hang the f_ck on to it!!! The first 100 foot white pine (70 inches around) was my first, it hit the ground and lifted me a few inches in the air!!! I WAS HOOKED FOR LIFE, THE BEST (FUNEST) JOB I HAD EVER HAD IN MY LIFE!!! Here we are 8 years later, and I’m still cutting and driving and turning wrenches, loving this new occupation!!! Hands down a job I look forward to everyday, (Maine winters can get 35 below zero and summers get over 100 degrees with 90 percent humidity) the saw is probably the lightest thing I touch all day, (other than my unit when taking a leak) I was no stranger to heavy, dirty, Hard Work!!! Building houses gets repedative,another square box, yay!!! But this job, felling trees, turning wrenches, operating 30-ton machinery, and building roads and bridges into our work area, is now a job I can see me doing for as long as I can, and loving the Challenges and the Dangers of my new occupation!!! Still a lot to learn, everything seems to weigh over 100 lbs (and wins every time you fight with it) but most days I’m smiling working with my buddies, (outside, joking around and making a living) AND I’M LOVING IT!!! I can see why generations before me did this job, one that becomes a multi-generational career for the tough MEN AND WOMEN THAT BATTLE NATURE DAILY , SO THAT YOU CAN LIVE IN WOODEN HOUSES AND WIPE YOUR @$$ES WITH TOILET PAPER, as well as all the other things we do each day thanks to them!!! Like I said, the best job I’ve ever had, and I love it, it will probably KILL ME, BUT AT LEAST I’LL GO OUT SMILING!!!
You will have that tater that’s called experience I didn’t get to be the dozer man I am without plenty of screw ups
What sorta engine one of those run
I know the satisfaction when you got it sorted and understood the circuit. I'm yet to work it out on a Two Post Lift Ramp 240 vac motor.
I don't know why I thought she was operating it barefoot

What happen to logger wade
Yep, ... even if you're alert and careful and knowledgeable, ... when it's your turn, ... it's still your turn.
Missing your videos waiting on the next one
Would of been a good video if it wasn’t for the annoying dude singing about the chainsaw and saying the same thing over and over
Oh i just noticed you mini excavator look like it have a hydraulic line for a option hydraulic a quick coupler
So many mini excavator attachments options on the today market
Loggers are something special. Amazing skill. An art this new generation won't have.
That's off set mini excavator boom is candy in certain situation
Okay we’re ready for another Logger Wade fix, we’re having withdrawals!😂
Have you ever considered milling up and stockpiling a few of the finer wood slabs, and marketing them to individual woodworkers that make tables and desks? With the YT marketing capabilities, this might add extra revenue to Logger Wade Enterprises. Love your videos!
Thats a lie and you know it.
Were is logger wade
PRIMUS 💪✌️😎💥
Hey from beautiful Virginia. Good to see Pete Nuts 319 glad your back

Was this before the Diffy lock went out and when you had to rebuild the transmission?
U sir have an awesome family and amazing wife reminds me of my relationship with my missus we joke and have a laugh like best buds 😄 she trys hard an i show off lol with the same tasks 😊
Pretty good advice!!!
I love all that different hardwoods used in that building!! Great video Wade! I learned something new today!! The other thing that was cool in those offices is the windows at roughly a 45° angle and the walls followed those angles so the sun light wouldn't be over baring!! This building was well thought out!! Kudos to the designers of this building! Alot of thought was put into this and it shows!!
The first thing my Dad showed me and preached in my head when cutting any size tree when I was young was never leave trash at ur feet anywhere around that dam Tree because it can and will kill you some day and I was 10 years old and still live that Law till this day !!!God bless his soul as he passed at my age of 12 of a heart attack
What's with all the green moss on the side of a live tree.just no sun on that side of the tree?
Just ran a skidder for the first time today and I can die a happy man now! I remember this video when it came out when I was probably 10 or something haha!! Just thought I'd watch it again to see how you operate the grapple and all. The 525 I was running has so much power its incredible I cant imagine how a cranked up one would be. Hopefully one day I can run at full throttle like it's an extension of my body just like you do! Thanks a ton.
Awesome videos
