    The question I keep asking myself during the watching of mechanical destruction of big wood; WHY AREN'T THESE HUGE OLD-GROWTH LOGS GOING TO THE MILL?!

    • @jonasstahl9826
      @jonasstahl9826 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Take a close look the logs all have big knots, are not straight and have some infection or are rotting. Not good enough for a sawmill.

    I occasionally stumble upon your channel. A tub grinder would definitely save some time. Plus they are supposed to eject(a pro and a con) incompatible materials such as metal so whole pallets and other things are (supposedly) no problem. At least here in nc, you can use untreated wood(pallets etc) for mulch.
    Only 2 cons are they cant eat super long things that well since it'll just fall out and they are a little bit more dangerous because they eject material but I assume you already know this.

  • @Kangenpower7
    @Kangenpower7 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    You know if you tell the people who build the tree grinders "If you set up a demo unit, and show it off, maybe I can find someone willing to buy my smaller unit, then I can upgrade, you can take my smaller unit back to the factory for a small rebuild, then sell it to that customer". Making it possible to upgrade at a lower overall cost to you! And in the meantime, you can demo their stuff, and grid up a bucketload of mulch for this spring!
    And if you decide not to buy the larger equipment, blame them for processing your trees much faster than you can bring in new wood to grind. If you can grind up a week's worth of trees in only 3 days 7 hours long, then the machine is way to large for your operation! At least you can get the peak spring mulch ground up in a week or two!

    my friend owns a tree removal company and he just got his 2nd tub grinder for making mulch they are well worth the money it produces a very consistent mulch. he can put in logs that size whole and stumps but he lets the stumps sit a while so the rain washes away a lot of the dirt though they do cost a pretty penny I think he said the newest one he bought was just under 2 million though he needed the capacity as he is taking all the cities tree trimmings for the lowest rate around in exchange for a juicy tax break

    Case has a pretty crap reputation around here, but the rental fleets down here all seem to be Case equipment now days and the ones I've rented have been pretty alright. Though the one they put the hammer on permanently was pretty flogged out but I don't know if it's quite right to be blaming that on Case.

    You know? For what it is worth?? I have found hoses that create a small hole I the innermost rubber layer and it will fill and create a bubble on the inside of the hose an restrict the flow. Not saying this is the case but it is a rare occurrence but a serious pain in the??(booty) to trouble shoot an find. But after a few thousand dollars?? You find out it was a dam 50$ rubber hose 🙄🙄 Now as to the “temporary “ maintenance pit? Wye she would hold a train locomotive😂😂😂 ohhh hell yea I need that screw!! I could sit and split a years worth of burning and never break a sweat 🤪🤪 An!! Man oh man could a guy ever make split rail fence like in the 20’s an 30’s ❤ That one log?? She had to be a fence roll tree!! She was super twisted grain…a she had to be 150-200 year old tree.. love to count the rings on a stump to see how old it is AN the width of the rings also tell you if it was a wet year or if was a drought… man oh man this old man could have some fun with that❤❤ That 1 real yellow one reminds me of mulberry …. lol thank this was cool

    If that concrete is an average 3,000 psi, taking the surface area that the dozer tracks occupy would, without getting all “mathy” be well within any safety limits. Heck, I’d sleep well under the thing. If it didn’t drip oil.

    With all the recycling you do, I am surprised that you are not running a sawmill. Some of that stuff you were splitting look like decent saw logs. It seems there'd be more money in lumber than mulch - even as routgh cut pallet stock. And you could still chip & mulch the slabs and bark, and probably the sawdust too.
    Nice operation!

    That is a great platform to work on the giant dozer. The factory guy will be happy to see that, and not need to work on his back all day! I wonder if you have recently been power washing the radiators? I know someone who had a overheating RV and the guy power washed the radiator, intercooler and transmission coolers, it ran much cooler for 3 years!
    I used to work for Long Beach CA, and they would have to service the fire systems every 2 years, and wanted to change out the fire extinguishing stuff after about 4 years, so the old stuff gets packed into the container pretty well by then.
    My buddy who lived 15 miles west of Victorville CA, on a country road, built his mailbox support from 4" steel. Did not sink it 4 feet deep though, only about 6" in the sand. The supports where 4" steel, going three ways, 3 feet long each direction. The pickup that hit it, ended up in the air! And I think one of the pipes went into the engine? The guy had to get a tow truck to lift the front of the truck off of his mailbox support. Funny nobody hit his mailbox - ever!
    It is interesting watching the large screw driver going to break up those trees!
    Thanks for another very interesting video!
