- Today's video, Adam and I clear brush and small trees using the Stihl FS240 Brushcutter with a 9" carbide tooth blade. The trail was overgrown and not used in years. But with a little work, we now have a nice place to hike, ride ATVs, hunt, etc. The brush cutter did an amazing job.

Sorry but i work in the forest... You don't seam more then a beginner with this... Idk about other skills but this is definitely not your strong side...
No reason to be sorry, you are 100% correct. I am absolutely a beginner with this. This video was one of the first times I ever used this tool. So yeah, definitely not my strong side. But that's okay with me. This is not a "how to" video with me claiming to be an expert. Doing stuff like this is a hobby and fun for me, so I was just sharing a fun video for me. Thanks for watching!
@@NorthForkHollow Great reply to a negative comment.
Great to see your son helping you out. Exploring and playing in nature is an awesome way to build memories!
Definitely is great for him. And he loves doing it and helping out. We are definitely blessed with great kids. Thanks for watching.
I know Im asking randomly but does someone know of a method to log back into an Instagram account?
I was dumb lost my password. I appreciate any tricks you can offer me.

I just bought a lightly used FS110, I know its a little smaller but I'm still excited to try it out this coming weekend.
I love the last part just walking with your son out of the woods. Money can be everything but what matters.
I love that part, too. And it was all his idea to do the shot that way. I think he has a better eye for camera angles than I do. Thanks for watching!
YES BRUSH CUTTERS! BEST TOOL EVER! I always did hand work with loopers and not anymore hahah the brush cutter has been a game changer on my homestead hah glad to see you letting it rip! Keep up the good work!
I don't use it very often, but I do love it. I always used loopers too. Now the kids use those and keep things clean for the most part. Thanks for watching!
Try putting a Forester blade on that bad boy. It will take half the time and a whole lot easier cutting through any kind of thick brush.
I bought this blade based on a Project Farm video that I watched where he tested them. It performed better than the Forrester blade. I'm quite happy with it. Thanks for watching.
i weed eat a pretty good bit and i was just cutting some nasty bamboo and grass with a 3 bladed stihl brush cutter and it skimmed right through it good tool for thick stuff
Definitely works well. I don't use it all the time, but it is a good tool when you need it. Thanks for watching!
Good video, thanks. My newly minted 3 year old son just told me that you don't have your helmet on, haha. I got him a forestry helmet for Christmas and he looks forward to the day when he can cut trees down in the woods with me. He told me the other day he's going to cut all the trees down as soon as he's old enough to use a chainsaw, but I had to explain that we only cut the dead or broken ones. He gets it now 😂
Awesome to hear how much he likes the woods. Thanks for watching.
the brush cutter made easy work of clearing the trail
Definitely did make quit work. I love it for that reason. Thanks for watching!
Beautiful country you’re sporting there👌🏼 😥Whew! It’s funny how I could listen to a saw for hours, but the blade on the brush trimmer😬 I had to turn the volume down on that, kind of a ‘Fingernails/Chalkboard’ effect🤔🤪. Well, you two appear to make for an effective crew💪🏼 nice work out there!
Bless’ns to ya, Tedd
Hey Tedd, yeah, the brush cutter with that blade on it does have a funny whine. But it works well, so I put up with it. Thanks for watching!
VERY nice 👍👍
Thank you 👍
Sounds like a damn dirtbike
Yeah, it kinda does sound like that. Just a big 2 stroke engine. Thanks for watching.
Today I think I’m going to be picking up the FS 94 r I was looking at the 91 but it seems completely useless for what I need it for
Very nice. I got this one because its what was available in the used market when I was looking.
I came to verify if your trimmer head made the same noise as mine lol I just bought FS 240R, and attached the forester Chainsaw blade to it. Absolute monster. I noticed noise when the blade slows down as if it was catching, but I guess its normal.
Yup, must be normal. Thanks for watching!
I bet you could have some epic Jeep trials up there.... 😉
What's to say I don't already?
Would this work well with bamboo?
I think it would. I've never used it on bamboo. But I think it definitely would work well. Let me know if you try it! Thanks for watching.
how is your stihl fs 240 holding up it has been 18 months since you made this video - I am getting ready to buy a weed wacker and have already chosen a stihl what your opinion
It has been holding up really well. No issues so far. I only run it a couple times a year. But always fires up easy and runs great. Thanks for watching!
@@NorthForkHollow thanks for the answer I purchased one several weeks ago and has been working well
@@bobschallalcs584 Excellent. Glad to hear that.
I was thinking originally to get a DR push behind brush cutter but after further investigation i think one of these handle bar type brush cutters will actually be a better choice for my needs. comparing both Husquarna and Stihl models. i wish i could try both out before purchasing but i think either one will be fine. for larger trees trees I just use my silky katanaboy saw ( i can usually plow through 20-30 trees < 10" diameter in a day). Do you have any recommendations for cutting down the smallish sapling/tree stumps left behind ? trying to get them as close to ground level as i can or else some of them can leave pretty sharp ends that could take out my ATV tires
My Stihl has been flawless, but I'm sure Husky is good too. I can usually get the stumps within and inch or so of the ground, and that doesn't seem to cause any issues with my ATV tires. Thanks for watching!
Are you re opening the old logging roads again who is your little helper
Yup, just trying to open them up and make some trails for us to use to hike and hunt. The helper is my son. He is a big help and can work hard. Thanks for watching!
@@NorthForkHollow your welcome I like your videos
@@johnhunt5090 I'm glad you do! Thanks for the kind words.
Dude you really need to get a Forrester blade with the chainsaw teeth
I'm not sure I want to switch blades. I really like the one I have on there. I've watched some reviews of the Forrester blade and just wasn't as impressed. Maybe I should just get one and do a comparison. Thanks for the suggestion.
Well I was just saying so you can re-sharpen it but that thing looks like it works pretty good is that the renegade
Yes, you can resharpen the Forrester blade. But I think the carbide teeth blades cut faster and better. Though I haven't tested both.
I’ve tried several blades. I’ve done the testing save your time and stick with this blade.
