    09:40 - "I brought the whole box in case you need something else." Don't bring just the one tool. Bring the whole toolbox just in case. THAT is the sign of someone who has been taught well. Not just as a good worker, but also as a considerate human being. Well done sir!

    Hey Cody. I got a real chuckle out of you and that barbed wire. Working on the railroad, I am sometimes remote controlling locomotives around the yard to switch cars. It just so happens that sometimes being a bit lazy, and only moving the locomotives a little bit costs me even more walking. Thinking I have enough room so I don't have to get the switch ahead of me to take that cut of cars. Next thing I know, I am having to walk up and grab that switch because there were more cars than listed.
    Coulda gotten it while I was over there with the locomotive. Now I have to ride the locomotive back over there, stop, throw the switch, then keep pulling. Always makes ya feel like a bit of a fool, and the foreman or helper are gonna laugh at ya. But you know they'll do something similar later in the shift to even the score. Always fun.

I have my Dad's '54 Ford Major, which is too large for us to use on our little 3 acre place near the town, and our paltry 1/2 acre at cabin. Our old Toro Wheel Horse 520H does a good job for as small as it is (blowing snow, mowing and roto tilling ). have been in the market for a "garden tractor", tough to find a reasonable priced American made. Still looking (Cal Ranch maybe...)

    You are so blessed to have such a beautiful piece of property. I really enjoy watching your videos that shows your land and the things you're doing to improve it and design and landscape it just the way you want it to be. I wish I was in the same position. Unfortunately im not, but I would love to have the land with live creek's and streams running through it. And timber to build myself a log home. Q. Why don't you take that boggy area and create a live pond and at the same time build a crossover bridge . You already have the equipment to design any shape and it as deep and wide as you want .

    Honest question from an east coast guy, lol. I remember a few years ago when you got your chainsaw into your chaps while doing a small quick job. I noticed today you didn’t put them on when you cut the tree at the end. How do you decide when the risk is worth it. I’ve noticed since I got my small cordless saw I tend to use it more than I use to grab my gas saws and I have been bad about not wearing my chaps for a quick cut. Would love to hear your thoughts.

      @itsFritz 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      SHW: Good observation, I didn't pick up on Cody not wearing chaps, but I did pick up on a couple "small" close-calls that could have turned into injuries. First, when putting the hand saw into the scabbard he missed and almost ended up with a nasty cut on his hand. Second, at the end of the video, he overshot and missed the break on the first attempt to lock-out the bar on his gas saw. I know working mostly alone and trying to create video content at the same time can't be easy; but it would be even more difficult with stitches in his hand. I am a believer in the safety 3rd philosophy, and I can only imagine what he has on his plate, but Cody should slow down a bit and even think about having a safety-stand-down day from time-to-time on the Homestead. Keep up the good work and keep safe Cody!

      I know and apreciate this. I have choosen another way of live, born and raised in Germany. I have everything I need and want, including two adult sons that I love a lot and who love me and care a lot for me. I am blessed, too, but in another way as Cody is.
      I am blessed, because I have a good live, doing what I like the most for a living.
      Years before I ran three companys, a gravel plant which was our family business, not only in the office but driving every truck, excavator, caterpillar, tractor and wheelloader we had. I was drilling the holes for the blastings, having the fireworker licence, what we had to do for breaking up the gravel. I was working together with my father, my mother and my younger brother.
      Later I founded a landscaping and gardening business, and some years later a bill collecting company, that wrote the bills and collected the money for several gravel and concrete plants in my aerea.
      In 1999, when my younger brother died in a road accident, I finally gave up all the companys and sold them, because I needed the money for my parents. My mom had cancer then, and my dad suffered from Alzheimers disease.
      After my parents passed away, I started my second career as a musician, what I was doing my whole live as a hobby in several bands. I joined a touring band, and after some time became the first call bassplayer for a studio in Munich. I have several students.
      So I sure do have everything I need and want.
      When I say, that I am jealous of Codys homestead and way of living, I say this out of a perspective of apreciation, and sure not of envy.
      It just is a way of live I might have been choosen back then - if I'd had the opportunity here in Germany. Because I allways loved to work with my hands. I have some experience in forrestery, plants, building houses, machines, repairing them, mechanics and everything you need when you live a live like Cody and his family. May God bless them all.

    Near the beginning of your video, that wet area that you said is always boggy and almost got stuck the other day when you were out with Mrs W., although you said you previously CLEARED trees from that area, do you need to RE-PLANT and plant MORE TREES (of whatever variety is suitable for your area) to drink up that surplus water and turn that extra water into wood/lumber growth ? Certainly in parts of Western Australia (where I lived for many years) even in semi-arid, mostly dry areas, there were pockets that had excess water at the surface, so the trick was to plant suitable tree/shrub species that can tolerate wet feet at times without getting root rot, and drink up all that extra water and turn it into wood, or foliage/animal fodder. Not sure how cold your place gets in a bad Winter on the USDA scale, but there are different trees and shrubs suitable for almost any area of Winter cold, Summer heat, sustained drought, or constantly wet feet. Australia has many heat and drought tolerant plants which can tolerate wet feet in Winter, but their cold tolerance is only about USDA zone 9, as they only ever experience short morning frosts with temperature lows about minus 4 Celsius (approx 7 degrees of Farenheit frost or 25 Farenheit). But I'm sure North America has suitable species for you to choose from.

    I have 15acres, a 3800sq ft home in the country with woods and wood heat. With 2.5 acres of lawn to mow and a UTV. It is great and I’m not complaining. I am 37 yrs old. But I can tell anyone wanting a Cody life that it’s always humbling. You think you have all the tools one minute. And the next you realize how many more you need to be truly self reliant. And it is WORK. It’s not all bananas and hammocks. But it is incredibly rewarding. God bless.

    Cody, one other thing you can do with limbs: you can use them in berms to help with water flow, ie keylining.

    Love these forestry videos and the way you are always able to incorporate a story into them. Seeing your hard shell videography case in the back of the Honda, it totally makes sense. Everything you need, tough enough to take the abuse, and safe from the elements.

    Used to "Hand Split" cedar fence posts "back in the day". A nice 2 to 4 foot diameter cedar are hollow and so straight grained that they will split with one swing of a double bit axe.

    "Back before I knew the Lord" Every time I watched your videos I used to think "this is a nice guy, i'm going to pray for him that he comes to know the Lord" ... well just today I find out that my prayers were answered probably many years before I even prayed them. That about brought a tear to my eye to hear that, good for you Brother!

    @wranglerstar, have you ever considered getting /testing some electric pruners? Locally we use a lot of Electrocoup ones and they are about as capable as those big loppers, but they are a lot smaller and faster. They would be great for the smaller branches like you cut with your saw.

  • @youbikewithatube
    @youbikewithatube 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think the most important part of what you said was about changing who you were, that you just decided you weren’t going to be that type of person. It’s so very powerful when someone decides that they are going to be a certain type of person. I remember my Grandfather quite drinking and smoking cigars cold turkey. He just decided one day and never looked back Grandma said. He was a rough individual as well, worked at Kaiser Aluminum and retired from there after 30 years.

    We own a tree farm in Washington State. We went to a forestry workshop where the professional forester recommended the battery-powered Milwaukee Sawzall for pruning, de-limbing and cutting down small trees. Was he ever right. It sits under bungee cords on my farm-tractor ballast box when I am out in the woods. It cuts even in the dirt for leaving a clean surface above. Batteries have a long life, but I do carry a spare for a full work-day.

    Cody,
    That's my typical day when I'm fixing barbed wire fence. One day I found 18 strands of barbed wire on the ground and some of it had the diamond points, it was sharp as heck to. I run a product in my ATV tires to prevent punctures, hole etc... It's called tire ject, and I don't work for the company but I do highly recommend it. It's an ounce of prevention. Just something to think about.

    Hey, im a tree surgeon so take it for whats its worth. That scene where you use the chain break on the top handle husq. Rather than using you palm use the back of you hand like a ground saw. Its your choice but turned my gut seeing you hand slip so close to the chain mate. Great videos keep it up 👍

    Fence Pliers : My Father had several Pairs of those, but I always thought they were a Farrier Tool, because My Father was once a Farrier / Horse Whisperer.
    Shortly before We came to Australia (1967) My Father was Offered an Appointment to look after Queen Elizabeth II Horses at Buckingham Palace in London.
    He declined the Offer because We were moving to Australia.

    Hi, Apparently Transmission and Hydraulic fluid is the same on your Yanmar tractor, 6-2. Transmission-hydraulic oil and filter
    The transmission oil functions as lubricant of
    transmission gears, brake discs and hydraulic system
    oil as well. The transmission oil quality and filter is
    very important to keep good condition of transmission
    and hydraulic system.
    Check oil level
    (1) Check oil level at oil level window on backside of
    transmission. Adequate oil level is between a half of
    window and the lowest (L).
    (2) If the oil is no seen in oil level window, replenish oil.
    (A) Oil level window (B) Oil supply port
    (L) Adequate oil level
    Replacing oil
    Remove drain plug and drain oil. When transmission
    is warm, draining oil is easier.
    Oil Capacity
    Model Capacity Replace
    EF312T 25 lit.
    EF352T 25 lit.
    First 50hrs and
    every 300 hrs.
    Use Yanmar hydraulic-transmission fluid TF-500A or
    equivalent. Do not mix oil with other brand.

    Hope this helps.

    Thank you for weaving in the inspirational messages throughout your videos.
    Patience truly is a virtue that takes many years for most of us to learn, usually only with Gods helping hand, and can keep the little things in life from derailing an otherwise productive day. You have given me new incentives to put a road like yours around our property to walk the dogs and enjoy what we have. Now I just need to get a good six way blade. Keeping up with the Wranglerstars is much more my speed that the Kardashians.
