- In this video we try out our new winch by winching a few logs up our steep property. We encounter a few problems with the winch mount but we work through them. We get the logs ready to swichback direcition on the way to the house.
World needs more Dads like You bro 👌🏻💪🏻👌🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻.. God Bless ! Tks for sharing 👌🏻
Dad and little man, good times together. Thanks for posting this.
He is a great helper!
Great vid only used mine twice. But yer pulley high. Thanx bro great sounds
Seems like my son was that age a couple of years ago...
He's 24 now...
Time flies... Enjoy it.
Thanks for watching! I know what you mean they have grown up so fast already!
Nice video. Children grow so quickly, enjoy them while you can. Years ago I dragged a giant tree out of a pond type setting using only a a cheap 3500 lb. pull electric winch strapped to a tree. I almost couldn't believe it myself. Today using snatch blocks you can pull entire trees over and eliminate stump removal.
Thanks for watching! They do grow up so fast!
Awe Weston is a cute lil man 😊. Thank you for making this vid. Looking at purchasing one of these winches and glad I got to see it in action. I know what to expect now. 👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thanks for watching! I would totally recommend buying one of these winches!
You did a good job. It was nice to see you working with and teaching your boy. I found that once I got used to using my PCW5000 I could load almost anything. The winch is incredible. I hope you try milling some of those logs. Theres even move value there. Well done!
I am glad you enjoyed it. I love having my boys out there with me helping! We were on the hunt for firewood on this mission. Here is a video where I milled up a different log that we brought up the hill. Thanks for watching!
Your son, made this video that much better!!!
Good job you two. I am about to pull the trigger on purchasing one of these winches with the forestry kit. 👍
Ray Zickrick they are lots of fun! You won’t regret it!
Your property's a bit like mine, and I'm also finding out that even with a PCW 5000, dragging a log uphill ain't all that easy. Your little boy made me laugh. I have three of my own plus a daughter, all grown and on their own. Wonderfull.
Hi Rick, It sure is tough work but it is very rewarding. I also have three boys ”helpers”. Thanks for watching!
Smart good boy!!
Gonna buy one of these winches.
Always listen to the kid...lol
Thanks for watching!!
Young’n gonna have his own YT channel in a couple years. 🤜🤛😎
I agree! Thanks for watching!
I'd be very disappointed with my purchase if I was having those oil sensor problems... The manufacturer needs to address that issue. Great video Bud!
They are supposed to work in all positions 🤷♂️
@@realmetis8002 They don't. They said they had plans to build a 2 stroke model that would eliminate the low oil shut off problem. I lost interest in them after I couldn't use mine and looked like a jackass with all the rope and pullies... It was impressive till it wouldn't stay running.
@@clintchapman4319 I see hmmm I was so looking forward to getting one for hunting I may have to go with a chainsaw winch 🤔
@@realmetis8002 I'd say that would be a great idea Bud!
Their model PCW4000 allows for a 360 degree tilt. That's the one you want.
Thanks for the video, I am interested in this type of equipment and pulling and rigging loads.
I just watched the video from portable winch the other day. It’s only one of their machines equipped with the oil sensor switch?
I have to go back and check but I thought they said their engines are omni directional?
I use a technique with two blocks in the other tree in difficult terrain. The first block to make the line from the winch level, and the second one higher up in the tree to create lift on the log.
That kid is so cute. Made me subscribe!!!!!!!!!!!!
BettyWhite LandCruiser he is super cute. I have three of them now! More videos on the way. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for this video. Why you didn't show everything, we can see plenty enough to understand that it works. Quite slow indeed, but nevertheless, it seems more efficient and logical, and certainly less damaging to the forest soil than a lot of huge powerful skidders that we can see bouncing about, smoking much, and getting stuck everywhere, sinking deeply and completely smashing the forest soil, that we can see in so many videos.
Thanks for watching!!
great job sir, may i ask distance from log location to the winch
I have a 600’ rope so I can grab anything from within that distance. I think I probably winched them up about that far to the house but with multiple setups.
I wish those winches weren't sooo expensive! I've been thinking of one to get piles of wood in a canyon, but the winch and accessories cost more than just buying the wood.
They are expensive but after a few years of getting free fire wood they will be cheaper than buying wood every year. They are also good exercise and a lot of fun! Thanks for Watching!!
Your boy did just like mine with getting spooked by a sudden engine start! Terrific video. Have you considered a log arch in place of the skid come?
I have considered that for sure. Would need to have a wider stance than a regular arch to stop it from tipping over but would definitely help with less friction.
Nice hinge
Thanx bro
What happens when you over load the winch? Dose the rope just slip on the drum? I just broke the grears inside my lewis style winch due to no safety.
Hi, thanks for watching. Sorry for the slow reply. If you overload the winch it will bog down and stall the engine. I have only had this happen to me once. I added a snatch block and two parted the pull and it no longer had an issue pulling it.
I bet the guy who made that system what it is, is the best tree guy on u tube . well theres 3 that are really good . Reg Coates is the best though . I've seen him use them on his channel . I bet his vids may help you .
Thanks for watching! I do enjoy watching tree videos my self!
Wow, love that cone. Great idea. Where’d you find that?
Hi, thanks for watching. Sorry for the slow response. I purchased the skidding cone with my winch from the portable winch company.
I wish id brought the battery one. Work upside down
Mines a high speed one. But i stand back goes
Their PCW4000 has a 360 degree tilt ability. That will solve the problem.
think theyll swap him out for free hahaha... doubt he's looking to spend another what 1200$ or so, could have a dozen cords of logs or more delivered for that
Or you could've chain sawed some level notches in the trees for it to grip on.
Yes that would work as well. I do not plan on on cutting those trees down so I was trying not to hurt them. I did solve that problem in another video I made. Thanks for watching!
SOLVED! Out of level issue with Portable winch PCW5000

Hard days work!
Thanks for watching!
not sure how ya whent, but 3 evin 5 to one pulleys would help, an bit higher in tha tree, but then only if you got em,
Hi Julian! I agree adding pulleys helps. Check out my newest video. I use multiple pulleys in that video and it defiantly goes smoother.

la machine coûte combien
Really 3 pulleys
Цена лебетки...Спасибо..
i missed the point of this video.
How long and wide is the log?
Thanks for watching! I think that the log was about 12' long. I can remember how wide it was. I have long since burned that fire wood!
