NOT THE SMOKEHOUSE! Prayers for you and your smokehouse
It’s gonna be the best thing that ever happened!😂
Just my neck of the woods...Love it...Climber/bucket operator/ Supervisor..30yrs..And undercut it to make a jump cut..it won't hing over..Peace out...Always tie a handline over a higher tree and tie it to your fallen tree to take the pressure off as you cut..Wrap it to the bottom of a tree and you can lower it slowly once cut...Trees R Dangerous...And Bezzz carful around the Bezzz..You Did a fine job...ooh and never cut using a ladder ..Bad idea...Always be above your cut in a harness crotched in...Easiest way to understand it ..YOU Can build a crane out of other trees around...😎👍🏻
Right on! Thanks for the advice!
Weird seeing young kids outside without a phone glued to their faces and actually doing manual labor 😀
We don’t have that problem here for some reason!🤔🤔🤔😜
Didn’t have time to watch this video Thursday, glad I tracked it down tonight. Those big trees are nothing to mess around with, it’s always a relief to get them done safely and have them out of the way. A scared logger is an aliive logger, that’s my motto.
Yes indeed we made it out alive!!😂😂😂
Looks like someone well fed with high protein pork, poultry and beef is gonna win weightlifting contests.
The potential is there 😂
😂😂 I'm glad no one was hurt. But at 6:48 I realized that an old fart can move pretty quick! 🤣🤣
😂😂😂 I resemble that remark 😂
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures 🤣😂🤣
A difficult job done without injury. Congratulations!
Absolutely! Thanks so much!
Wow, big trees scare me. Good job!
They’re dangerous, but we got it!!!
Nope, nope, nope safety first - good call! Chickens don't live that long, but folks can when safety is considered.
Very true!
Great job Micah and sons. I was hoping you would make lumber with the trunk. We cut and milled ~7000 board ft. of mostly yellow pine, some oak and cedar before we built the house and shop around 1995. I still have a little of it left. We air dried it for 2 years in the shop. All these years later I can look at some of the boards and remember where I got the tree.
I’m glad you stopped and got the pole saw. For some people there’s never enough time to do it right but they alway make time to go to the hospital.😅
Ones again. Good job.👍👏
That exactly right brother!! The 600$ wouldn’t go very far in a hospital room!!! Sometimes being a man means to take less risk!!
That tree said "see the smokehouse be the smokehouse" you can do anything if you work as hard as an oak tree
😂😂😂 very true!! It’s got many years of work ahead of it!!
Good job McGie family
Thanks bro!
Glad you all were safe
Thanks brother!!
You probably need a pole saw around the farm any how
Absolutely!! Can you imagine the shooting lanes we can clear now??
Ole Joel landed that fall very nicely haha Will make great lumber and fire wood. Great video!
That’s exactly right!! He’s agile and tough!
Sorry about your smoke house buddy. I can’t wait for the new smoke house build.
I think you’re going to love it!!!
I guess you could always mill the wood down and re-use it for a new dry ager,
win win 😂 great video glad yall did it safe 👍
Sounds perfect!!!
I guess you finally get your new smokehouse. Didnt have to wait too long
That’s right! I’m very excited about getting the new one up!!
Dang I didn’t know you went through all that! I wondered how you loaded those monster logs with your small tractor.😂
😂😂😂 we had to use our heads😂😂😂
Wow McGie this was hard to watch. That tree was HUGE, and when Joel fell I nearly came off the couch! 😮 My heart was in my throat the throat the whole video, but it all turned out well🥺 good video👋be safe, later
That’s the best kind of video!!😂😂😂
Love how in the beginning of the vid the guy in the background is crankin the snot outa his saw 😂
😂😂😂 he was determined!
joel finally couldnt take anymore and just snapped
Everyone has their limits!😂
Good job friend always best to play it safe with them big trees..Now you got me wanting a pole saw thank you for sharing
I’m very happy with how it worked! Kept me at a safe distance. You’ll love next week’s videos! If I ever get them made!😂
Now you can build a bigger smoke house. Plus you'll get some nice lumber
Absolutely! And oh man it’s nice!!!
Great video. The pole saw is well worth it. I bought one a few years ago and it's paid for itself several times over.
It sure is! I’m so glad I got it!
Great video
Thanks!
I love it. Thank you Sir
You are welcome!
good job and a great video
Thank brother!!! It’s all downhill now!!
Great job guys. There is plenty more work where that came from with all those trees!
You got that right!
"Doing dangerous things is fun if you do it safely",.. Quote of the year candidate 2023!! Frank could NOT have said it better!!
😂😂😂😂
❤ another great video happy u all are safe ..safety first always,nice that your using the logs for the new smoke house
Yes indeed it works great!!!
Jeez, eye and ear bro!
😂😂😂
That big oak had so much respect for the smokehouse that it's just fitting that it becomes part of the new one. Awesome video!
Yes it does!! I’m extremely excited about it!!
protection
Nah
I hate it happened but can't wait to see the new smoke house build
You’ll love it!!
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures I want to build one your channel has inspired me so much
They can be simple or elaborate,……. Wood metal or stone, all you need is to get smoke on the meat!
Oh the mayhem! 😂 I just may have to review the footage that was deaf defying 😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂 it wasn’t to bad loud, but the moment he went down is definitely worth a double take!😂
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures and that ornery tree 🤣 slowest takedown ever 🤣
😂😂😂
Stop, drop, roll roulette style 🤣 Ida pulled my liver on that fall... 😅😂
Me too! I’d probably pull some fat too!!😂😂😂
I was a thinkin you would use a pole saw and cut small pieces off the top right where it lay, instead of trying to drop the whole top at once.
Too much tension in the “loaded” limbs….. and too high to safely access.
I hope you do use the wood. Good job
You’re in for a treat!!!
I've wrestled quite a few logs with out equipment it kind of fun since I only weigh 130 lbs
It’ll definitely make you use your powers of reasoning!!😂😂
I'm a new subscriber to you That's the dangerous tree you're doing there buddy You want to stay safe watch it I'll be watching more videos have a safe and good day
We have a Frank here on this channel that makes appearances every so often……… we’re always happy to welcome new friends aboard!!!
What will become of the other half of the ole oak tree ? Will you have it sawn up for lumber too ?
It still looks stable so I’m gonna let it stand. It’s not leaning over the house so it’s posing no danger.
I don't blame you for not exactly knowing how that was going to play out. When a tree falls like that and bends over some other ones there can be a lot of pressure and recoil. The term I always use is that tree is "Loaded". Heck of a pole saw! Well done Brother.
Yes indeed! And you can’t tell exactly how loaded it is till it’s too late to stop…….. so safety first!!!
I have a sawmill, wish I could help! 8 hr drive I think.
Thanks for the thought!!!
No doubt ya could do it.
😎😎😎 Thanks!😁
clover update?
I’ll try to get one out for ya!
Love the channel my family and I have been through a rough time in the last few months and you and your family have helped us through. If nobody else has told you in a while we want you to know that we appreciate you and thank you for your help and providing much needed assistance in homesteading and faith that everything little thing will be alright! Thank you my friend from the Blue Ridge Mountians Of Western North Carolina!
Sorry to hear that y’all have had a rough go of it……… but I’m glad we’ve had a positive impact in your life! That’s the true goal of our channel and we are very grateful for your feedback!!!❤️
Anticlimactic is safer 😁👌👍👍👍🐝
Very much so!!!
I was in a similar situation about a year had a half ago I’ve pushed my luck enough or the years i now on a pole saw too and unbelievable I use it all the time smart move
It’s a great invention!!!
Aw pawpaw
😃😎😎
How long did it take to finish the entire job?
All day.
Too bad they didn't have a DeWalt pole saw in stock.
Yeah I’d have eat that up!!!
👍👍
Finally made it early!!
Especially for a wood cuttinyg video lol. I was doing some clean up myself this weekend w the Husky.
You’re first! I think my usual first squad is getting a little bit tired!!!😂😂😂
That will add a few hairs for sure.
I’ve always hoped I’d keep enough hairs to get a couple gray ones before they’re all gone!😂😂😂👴🏻👴🏻👴🏻
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures 🤣
Lightning hit that tree it will be hard sawing in the mill lightning makes the wood very hard
It never got struck by lightning. It was my fault it caught fire 😳
step 1: drop more trees on the shed. :)
😂😂😂
Hillbilly Magic
Oh yeah!!!
Hey I'm all for ant reason to buy a new tool!!
Absolutely!!!😂😂😂
Micah might be a chicken, but he is an alive chicken
Absolutely!!😂😂😂
Did you save the boards to lie the new one all that tar is flavour
We saved the boards.
Mr. Mika ,I got a funny story for you I was in Boy Scouts about 13-14 years old and we were sewing up a tree that fell now we were doing it by hand, of course and we were sitting on a branch and I was on the branch in front of me but somehow I got to talking with my buddy and we were in deep conversation and hear the branch I was sitting on I saw it off now go figure I started out in the branch in front of me and ended up lol the branch I was sitting on till this day I don’t remember how I did that but I’m glad you got that Bugger down and That’s awesome cause I know you were worried about that tree falling and crushing your smokehouse. I’m glad it didn’t great job and I still say Frank should’ve helping you I feel he should’ve been on the top of that smokehouse cutting that big branch down. Lol. Just kidding I wouldn’t want to see him get hurt, but tell him one of your fans and his fan that he should’ve been helping out. And praise God it wasn’t that difficult cleaning up that mess. I know it was hard work, but I’m talking about nobody got hurt and that’s the main thing. Praise God for that blessing.
I’ll definitely tell him!😂😂😂 Yes it was a big job, but with all this help it wasn’t too bad!
Be safe safety first e
Were is your safety glasses and hearing protection at
We’re safety conscious, not silly. More people get hurt because they can’t hear and see well…….. I don’t take that route, it’s not safe.
"Ya big chicken" yep...but not a chicken burger....lol
Wind storms a few years back, knock down a 15" fork on my neighbor's little brood house. Hanging 7' in the air, 30' long, 1000 lbs. I looked at it. "I can spin this thing, went and cut all the limbs of one side, left the other side as springs. Started the main cut above my head, and was like.... "nope". Realized I looked like Wyle Coyote. Dragged part of the brooder over, got up above the broken fork and working from the other side of the standing fork. Hanging like a monkey. Like 30 minutes of setting up... cut it and it fell just like I planned. Would have been fine. Laughed, called myself a wuss.... nah I would do all that extra again.
Absolutely!!! Because once you realize you should have done it differently, it’s too late! Better safe than sorry!!!
Dang it, that cable snapping could have been so much worse. Thank heavens the only thing hurt was the smokehouse 🤣🙏🏻
Yes indeed!! We try to be safe, but things still happen and ultimately we rely upon God for true safety. I’m very blessed we got this done safely!
Great job but I’d expect no less from you Micah. Can’t wait to see the new smoke house build. Take care and have a blessed rest of the week my friend.
You’re gonna love the new one!!!
Surprised that nobody was injured! Next time get a excavator and do the job safely…
😂😂😂
Oak dust for somkeing ? I don't spell that good but ya know what I mean
The sawdust would definitely work well!
Better to be safe than sorry that was one heck of a job you all did thanks for sharing keep the cameras rolling from Florida.
Thanks Ken! We are very happy with it!
I'm glad you guys were safe cutting it up ! You're going to have to make a lot more videos to cover your new saw lol . I'm sure with all the trees you have you will get a lot of work done with it . If that oak was around 80 it makes me wonder how old the oak tree I got is because mine is about 5 times around that one . I can't wait to see the new smokehouse . Thanks for sharing and have a great day !
Yours is probably over 150!
Awesome video. It is always exciting cutting trees you never really know what will happen. It is good to see those boys learning this great life skill that many don’t have . Can’t wait to see you next video with the logs . Will it go to the mill green? Does it have to dry?
It’ll get sawn green and put up green! I know how to keep it from cracking up too bad.
Is this an episode of SCTV?
Nope it’s original with M.H.A. YT.
