810 board feet. Good video
Nice! Thanks for the answer 😀.
@@tristardiggin I would say about 3200 pounds for the weight. Appreciate the message
Sounds good to me! Thanks
Hello Sam, I really enjoy the videos done in a series like this . I know it’s a lot of work, But I sure appreciate the content. Just when I thought I’d seen all the camera angles you had, You stick a Go-Pro on the Bar of the saw 😂..Very Nice Job on clearing this and cleaning it up. As Always I sure appreciate the Messages, Have a Great Weekend and Take Care !!
Evert
Thanks Evert. I was just thinking today that I haven't heard from you in a bit. 😁 That chainsaw angle was a good one. I like that one too. I appreciate it, thanks...
Amen…..God’s will…God’s bill….our Lord opens doors but, none of them will take us farther away from him! He blesses only our obedience…..keep praising his faithfulness! Thanks for the efforts and the Word!
Thank you Brett! I like the way you said that, “none of them will take us farther away from Him”!
God Bless,
Sam

God Bless..
Great job Sam👍👍👍
Thank you James...
Amen glad to find a local person I’m in Knoxville area
Thanks I appreciate you supporting the channel. Yup I'm about 1.5 hours from Knoxville.
Sam
I agree chainsaws are nice especially new ones until you need to use them all day
Another great video
Thanks I appreciate it.
Chainsaws, yuk! 🥺😫
Great video as always 👍
Thank you! 😁
Good message and nice work
Thank you Jon, I appreciate that...
Outstanding drone vidio and music. Big job, nice work. Great message. It is easy to overlook I Thess. 4: 13-17 and focuss on things that will fade away. God Bless.
Thank you! Took a few days but definitely enjoyed the work. Thanks for the feedback on the message.
God Bless...
Awesome video Sammy.
Thanks Jon, you are going to love the job I'm on today. Anchor has been stuck 3 times already...😫
@@tristardiggin OH NO. HE BETTER BE STRAIGHTENED UP
Hey Sam you got that big beautiful pile of logs there I better be seeing some firewood videos lol
Yeah buddy! A big ole pile of firewood. Which reminds me I need to cut some. 🤔
Great job
Thanks Ray, I appreciate it...
That turned out nice. I sort of did a job like this a few weeks ago. Dug out the stumps and grappled the brush off the house pad. I used my power rake to clean the small debris off the lot. The contractor told me that it was the best end result he had ever gotten from anyone and that from now on, he was going to call me. I just laughed because I usually don't do jobs like that since I run smaller equipment and lot cleaning is hard on the equipment. Oh well, I guess I may have worked myself into a new line of work. Great message brother.
Yes Sir, that power rake does the trick. I almost ran it on this one just for the look. Sounds like your gonna need some bigger stuff. You worked yourself right into some bigger jobs. Good work pays off, for sure...
Looks like a fun job, I enjoy this type work. 🙂
Right, I enjoy the jobs with variety too. Thanks...
@@tristardiggin 🙂
Great message Sam. I missed a lot by chasing an extra dollar
Thanks Ron. Glad you enjoyed the message and we all have chased a dollar at some point. We need money in this life but we don't need it to control us...
God Bless,
Sam
That building site looks amazing. It should after 7 days of very hard work. But I always say if you love doing something, it is not work.
I sure the owner will be thrilled with it. And all that firewood for the future doesn`t go astray either. This was abeaut series Sam, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
And todays message has always been my philosophy. How much money do you really need? Or maybe I`m a bit lazy!!
Yup, that place looks great. Supposed to meet the owners next week to plan the house pad. Right about the pursuit of money. Over working to chase money is a dead end road! There is a kot to be said about contentment.
God Bless...
Dont know when you recorded this video, but today we have 14 degrees right now with minus temps in store for us tonight, with our snow that we got yesterday, bet you could burn here.🙃 Thanks for the video, see ya one. Have A Great Day Sam.
Hey James, that is some rough winter weather for sure. Definitely hard to start a fire in that kind of weather.
Thanks,
Sam
Love this channel because you always make sure the word is relevant to the day. Amen. Many Blessings to you. 🙏
Thank you Aston! I definitely try to do that.
God Bless,
Sam
Great video. Need keep some plastic wedges on you to keep your saws from letting pinched. Once you figure out how to use them, they are a game changer. Or just have a second saw on hand to cut the other one out. 🤣
Plastic wedges would be good to have available…
Thanks,
Sam
Well I was gonna ask how you like cleaning up with the grapple bucket, but then you talked about it. I’d like to get a cat root rake maybe. Not sure what kind of set up I’d like but a brush grapple of some sort would be really handy. I agree the double clamps is the only way to go. At the beginning I thought you might be tossing that stihl in the burn pile lol. That’s message really hits home. I’ve been consumed with work my whole life. I kinda freak out when I don’t have something to do. I don’t really remember how to relax. I was just thinking about that yesterday. Not looking for riches but I wanna get to where I can pay these bills and spend time with my family. Hope and pray I get there before it’s too late and I’m regretting my decisions.
Right, not to happy with this grapple. Could you tell I was considering the demise of the Stihl? Yup, it's a battle to stay focused on what is important. Working hard and supporting our family is important. But it's the pursuit of more more more stuff just to have more stuff is where we loose focus. Thanks...
@@tristardiggin I agree. Between a day job and working for myself and I’m overwhelmed just kind of continuing to take steps forward. Believing that one day I’ll be working for myself and for the most part I can set my own hours. I don’t aim to be rich or famous. My goal is to have enough that I can relax and forget about the work outside once in a while and just sit with my family without a care in the world. Do more fishing!! Spent my life chasing a paycheck and I’m tired of it. The good life is just around the corner. I am very thankful for where I am though. Thankful for food on my table, a wonderful wife, and two great sons. A warm dry safe place to sleep. I’m blessed abundantly but it can be easy to overlooked at times. Great message today!!!
Yes Sir, that is a goal worth pursuing. I hope you can quickly get to the point where you can work for yourself. Headaches at times, but very rewarding!
@@tristardiggin I feel like that’s what the Good Lord has in store for us. Just waiting on his good time. He knows.
The job looks great Sam thank you for the message. 👏👍
Yes Sir! Thank you...
Good job brother appreciate your messages , that burning bush , or a depiction of Hell . The burning bush wasn’t consumed so more like Hells fire.
Thank you and I appreciate you supporting the channel. And thanks for the encouragement on the messages. That fire was extremely hot and I can't even start to imagine what He'll would be like.
@@tristardiggin we need more good preaching, preaching, well understood, what a awesome platform you have . Your channel will grow, with more interaction, comments, like’s, shares. So I can’t afford to support financially, but I can do the other. And most of all pray God bless, and use you for his Glory.
Thank you! And yes, all those help the channel grow to reach more folks with the Gospel of Christ. I certainly will appreciate the prayers, that's where the power is and where real growth will come from. So, thank you for that!
For His glory!!!
God Bless,
Sam
I laughed out loud when you said probably enough lumber for @smithworks to re deck his trailer!!!
Every time I see his trailer I cringe!
😝
I was laughing too after I said it. I enjoy picking at him for sure...
Nice work as always and AMEN on the message brother!
Thanks, I appreciate that...
Hi Sam.
That job looks real good. I have a # of your videos I need to watch. Been dealing with health stuff that went sideways.
Nice message.
Ed from Chicago! 🙂
Thanks Ed, hope you doing better and continue to improve...
@@tristardiggin thank you Sam.
I say the log weighs 4k.
I would think a grapple would be better to clean up with vs a root rake. I guess each had its place.
Totally agree. Nothing matters in the end except what we do for Jesus.
I would say around 4k is close. Another guy was thinking around 3200. A grapple that didn't constantly dig in the ground would work great. 🤣😁
Exactly right! That is all that matters...
I had a grapple like the kind you want. It was pretty nice but after it got stolen I never replaced it because I can do everything faster and better with the tooth bucket. One less thing to carry on the trailer too
I am agreeing with you on the tooth bucket. Cut me teeth with the tooth bucket and feel like it can do almost anything...
Good job on the clearing. Also another great message from the word brother! I also chased my own dreams building my business. I have realized being over 50 now what was it all for it seems as though time took off!
Thanks, and you are exactly right. Time flies by and life is to short to be chasing a dollar the whole time.
God Bless...
I think you got me beat on the fire.... and y'all shouldn't make fun of my trailer deck. I'm kinda sensitive about it 🤣🤣 on a serious note. I'm glad you gave your experience with that grapple. I think that's my next investment but I was going to go with the double clamps instead of the single bar. I can see the tilt being a huge problem. Gonna have to pay attention to that when I buy one. Thanks a lot brother. Job is looking really nice! Oh yeah. I'm gonna say around 3500 pounds on that log.
🤣😁🤪
I'm going to be looking for a new grapple too. The double clamp and ability to roll up is a must have for the next one.
Had guesses of 3200lbs and 4000lbs. So I would say 3500lbs is right on the money...
Congrats on the 1k. It's a long road to get to a 1000. Seems to be coming a little faster now though...
@Tristar Diggin' man it sure was. I just hope I grow like you have been. You got to tell me the secret!
I wish I knew a secret. I would write it in a book and make millions. 🤔🤣
I've noticed my older ones have really kicked in and getting views and subs. I saw an explanation once that said on smaller/newer youtube channels that TH-cam shows our older videos more than our newer ones. They said only the bigger channels get new videos strongly promoted when new. I've chatted with some bigger channels and asked what they did. Pretty much what I've learned is; post consistently, make each video a little better than the last one, really focus on great thumbnails and titles and then TH-cam does the rest.
Thumbnails and titles are my least favorite thing to do but according to what I've learned they are very important in order to get folks to click and watch a video.
You are at 1k so you are doing it right. Stats I have heard say only 20% of TH-cam channels make it to 1k.
@Tristar Diggin' good advice. It's hard to come up good titles that aren't click bait. I didn't know that about older videos. Makes sense though. And that makes me feel better that only 20% make it.
Nice finish.I have an older model Stihl that takes more effort to crank than pull starting a D9 cat. Tell us
how you feel about that grapple! As always a great message.
Wow, sounds like that chainsaw is a doozy to get started. Well, just had to bring up the ole grapple 😫🤣😁. Glad you enjoyed the message...
God Bless...
Great looking site. I have an app on my phone that will tell you the approximate weight. It's log weight pro.
Thanks David. That's pretty cool. Seems like there is an app for everything now days. 🤔
You need a permit for a camp fire in the country?
Yup, anywhere in the state during certain months. I think it's like November thru March...
What is the make of that grapple?
I looked for a brand on it and didn't see one. I think it's the one made generic for equipment auctions. Will look again a little closer...
@@tristardiggin Jenkins maybe?
The only thing I don't like is you putting stomps and leaving them on the property makes it look bad
I agree, but it cost money to haul them off and folks generally just want them left in a pile somewhere..
