Nice. I enjoy this kind of work! I can watch it all day!
It is one of the best wonders in this life: Watching and learning how to do new tasks with skilled people. Thank you.
Nice set-up, I really like the trailer build.
Smart man !
Cheers!
Good Video , Well equipped and organised, the winch and trailer is superb.
Great video! The trailer you made works like a champ:D

Well done, sir! All around.
nice trailer for the atv, and log splitter.
I am very impressed with the 'stakes' on your trailer. A very clever and versatile design for sure. Looks like a heavy duty winch also. Did you upgrade the alternator on your four wheeler to handle it for extended periods? Take care. Doug
Working on my firewood pile right now. Something about the whole process that keeps you coming back for more!! Must be the nice warm stove at the end of a hard day!!
It definitely is!
Your trailer holds a LOT of wood. I like it.
That second tree almost worthy of slabbing up into lumber. But totally understand you need to stay warm this winter!
I was almost in tears while cutting it up actually. :D It's a waste from the carpenter point of view. But I do enjoy a warm house during the winter.

Excellent trailer. The log splitter needs a platform so split wood doesn’t fall on the ground.
Good work.
InstaBlaster.
good looking firewood where can i get that log splitter? who makes it?
Great set up 👍🏻
Love that trailer man! I need something exactly like that. Did you design & build it or buy it? Can you please share info on that? 🙏
What an interesting way to cut wood. Personally I never need firewood but cut dead trees to get them out and avoid beetle infestations. My method of choice is to use a skid steer and trailer. I used the wood to run my truck, and had a homemade wood splitter for the Bobcat.
Love the video! Did you build that trailer? Also love the honda. I have a 2008 honda rincon 680 with a gear reduction, lift kit and some 27" tires. Cant wait to get a snow plow and a nice trailer like yours.
Great choice in saws . We burn mostly all hard wood here as we have a very mixed forest.My wood lot contains only small soft wood I burn about 4 cords of ash and maple between my house and shop .Another cord at my camp .love Collecting wood as long as I am not rushed ! Then it turns in to a job
We usually collect alder since it's the fastest growing tree around here. I'm a little behind on collecting firewood and those dead spruces are coming down anyways so I thought I'd take down some before they rot away. I do feel the same about being not rushed.
What kind of log splitter is that?
Did you make it, or is it something you bought. Electric?
Thanks
My father bought it. It is electric and quite common here in Estonia.

Nice Tree collection
Maybe next revision has the boom able to extend out and swivel left and right to pick up heavier logs... Cheers and great videos! Thank you.
The boom extends and also swivels already, but I have to do it manually. Thanks for watching!

Good job, why such a tall stump?
the trailer looks really cool!
Cheers man!
Just a suggestion, you need to cut slightly above the notch at a slight downward angle this prevents the tree from twisting. It will hinge, alot more predictable when it falls. Just a safety tip. Great channel.
Class) ,the idea for the next video homemade pravachol )
I am interested in and subscribed to your videos!
I am making firewood and also made a chain saw attachment.
As for the question, why are you removing the spike from the chain saw?
We are looking forward to wonderful videos from now on.
A clip from a youtuber's secret life who lives in the woods!
nice video! :)
Пни допиливаешь или такие оставляешь?
It's very good
You need about a 48 inch bar on a huskie 560 rancher
That stringy wood is what we in NY refer to as PIS ELM
9/10
👍
What is that for atv ?
Pretty good at sharpening that chain on the saw. Mine never cuts that good.
Mine cuts far better and faster. That chain was NOT sharp, and his non-stable floppy freehand sharpening technique was truly cringe worthy.
man now that i see this you have to make you a sawmill i like your trailer keepup the good work thanks for sharing
It will be in my year 2018 projects.
Nice set up!
Cheers!
👍👍👍🤝
model stihl?
You burn spruce? I'm afraid to ask how many cords you burn through in a season. And the creosote...
Yup, but not only. We burn mainly Alder, Spruce is something we burn when it starts to get rotten while standing and has to be taken down. I didn't have a sawmill at the time I made this video. Otherwise I would've turned it into lumber.
What quad is that?
Whats the bar and chain size
woow very good
Hi, Awesome set up. What kind of trees are those that you are chopping up?
Dried up spruce.
I often think of making a stand for the splitter but with a surrounding deck. Raise the splitter to a good standing height then the deck would stop split timber falling down on to the floor yo save lifting again.
Yup, I've thought about the same thing. But... I'm planning on building firewood processor eventually so this plan for the wood splitter has gone on the shelf.
Donn DIY look forward to it!
У нас в России всё по старинке на тысячу лет позади
Super
Прикольно прицеп просто крутяк
the little foreman that could, i bet it can haul more than my 750kingquad
It has some serious torque, that's true. There are no regrets whatsoever buying this thing now almost 4 years ago. Oil & filter have been changed religiously so let's hope it'll last for years to come.
Donn DIY i may end up buying one myself. yours is a 450 foreman right?
It's 2002 TRX500FA.
I use my grizzly 700 to drag the entire log back to the house and buck it there. Less lifting.
Now that I have a tractor as well, the atv doesn't get much work use.
Mișto atv
A nice way to use up the dead trees
Even better would've been to mill the logs but I didn't have the samill built yet. Now that I have the mill I use these dead spruce trees for lumber only.
@@DonnDIY True thats alot better! Only use the rotten parts for firewood
Exactly. I cringed myself when chopping and splitting up these logs for firewood. There was quite a lot of good potential lumber there.
@@DonnDIY Yeah i feel you! I am in that stage atm when i have to cut up nice lumber for firewood. But i have saved the best logs till the day i have my own mill
Next project: More powerful splitting machine?
Kerkesit eka 😂
No doubt,,,it's a HARBOR FREIGHT 7 ton splitter. Good,,Reliable machine if you have nothing but time to waste. I own the DR kinetic flywheel 20 ton splitter with a Predator 212cc gas engine and I LOVE it!!
Saukki - The Velomobile Channel how about a good ol trusty mail and sledge? I love em more than splinters. Although when I used to be splitting wood that we would use a machine to pick up and put on my grandpas ole wood splitter. Couldn’t beat the setup and I’d love to work that splitter again
The winch is really nice. Is it selfmade? Where I can buy the winch?
Winchmax.
Thank u :)
Молодец, мужчина, я так же делаю, только вожу на мотоблоке, выхлоп калосальный
Good 👍
Thank you!
А прицепчик хороший
У нас такие можно делать на продажу. Я думаю народ будет брать для минитракторов.
What kind of ATV is that one? Thanks.

У нас бы за такие пни руки отрубили бы. Буржуи , даже колун в руки не берут
чисте дерево пустили на дрова--дурні--а був добрий буд матеріал--ідіоти
Looks like softwood? We burn only hardwood here. Nice trailer set up!
Pine. That splitter would not like my wood. Did good on the pine.
Crap spruce, Hey Donn buy a good axle - for example Cellfast C2500 (polish made) - i've purchase one a month ago - And I am very happy of that - splitiing wood is now a 50% easier and faster - lot faster than your hydraulic press - really . Cheers
Those trees would have made nice boards.
Are the mushrooms edible on that tree at 2:10?
Axe! ;-)
Do the tree you cut grows again ?
Yes.
Hey Donn,
excellent work!
What do you think about building a faster and more powerful log splitter?
I would really like to build a firewood processor that takes 3 m logs and turns'em into chopped and split firewood.
Very awesome idea!
Modify that boom, so you can lift those heavy chunks of wood, better on the back.
Where did you buy that trailer and winch. What is the name and model number.
The trailer is bought from a Finnish IKH tool store but it has been severely rebuilt (don't know the model number). Now it has a proper homemade crane, homemade outriggers, stronger backbone made from S355 steel, a stand and homemade dump box. It is powered by a WinchMax 3000 lbs remote controlled winch and it works wonders.
Did you made the trailer
Nope, I upgraded it with a homemade crane frame with outriggers, remotely controlled 12 v ATV winch and a dump box.
Co to za quad??
А зачем такие высокие пни оставляете?
do you think the dual axle on a trailer that short is a bit over engineered? nice job tho
Tow the splitter into the woods too?
He would need a looooooong extension cord,it's electric.
nice machine
Thank you!
Yeah I would have cut that into lumber for sure. Plenty of slabs to burn after cutting lumber. I also would have split my wood with an ax. If you tip up every piece on end and make a long line of them then you can split a lot of wood really fast. That splitter is way way too slow for my taste! I only borrow a splitter from a neighbour for a day when I have a pile of elm and big branch crotches to split. Otherwise most wood can be split far far more quickly and easily with an ax.
I do like your 4 wheeler with a winch and a dump though, that is really sweet!
Spruce is hard to split with an axe
What kind of splitter is that??
Electric hydraulic.
I could see that, is it homemade or what is the brand name/ model??
Mogłes to pociąś w metruwki i załadowac buło by lepiej ale tez był fajny dobra roboya
I watched right up to the 4 foot high stump and the ridiculous wedge .
You need a table for the splitter
Мы живем в самой прекрасной стране на свете, а все остальные страны нам завидуют
Did you make that trailer?
I made the crane assembly and the dump box. I wanted to build the whole trailer but eventually bought the timber trailer underneath due to parts costing more separately.
Dead standing: Money in the bank. Already dried and seasoned, just cut and split.
Lazy man firewood. :D
This logs are to good for firewood, it would be nice lumber
To hell with unloading. I want the button that will load it that fast.
Would you make a hydraulic splitter
I have a firewood processor in my to-do list / projects list. No worries! 😉
Con un trattore 🚜 non faresti più in fretta?
Lol viasat how you like that internet service

Такие деревья и на дрова?
Это ж сухостой, конечно на дрова, куда ж еще
Like gime price
Nice rig. But it would be easier and more efficient if you would unload the rounds from the trailer directly onto the splitter. You wouldn't have to lift them. Unless you like lifting those heavy rounds. But of course this way you get to play with your trailer and that's fun.
I load (by hand or winch if it's big rounds of oak) about that same quantity of rounds onto the back of an old beat up pickup truck or ratty old trailer, roll them off directly onto a platform attached to the splitter, split them, and throw the split wood onto a pile or stack it right off the splitter.
That's just me though. I'd much rather have your cute rig. I'm probably just jealous. Well, not really, for the money you have tied up in that fancy gear I could buy at least five years worth of cut split and delivered dry oak. Cute rig though.
Ain't the internet great?!
The purpose for dipping the rounds on the ground was that my father started to split'em while I was going to get another load from the forest. It saved us time. By the time I was back he had already split something like half of them. We rolled the rounds on the splitter when they were too heavy. Didn't have to lift them all. And what happens after five years when you have to buy firewood again? You pay again. I use this trailer not only for hauling firewood, I use it for many other things. So if you think it's cute, fancy and expensive you can always reconsider. I built the crane and the dump box myself saving money.
Nice video and your atv
Thank you.
250 cc...???
500 ccm.
You nerd å Helmer when you drive arv!
Very nice trailer. But even more beautiful would be to make furniture with all those logs such as: bed table chair all those who make the carpenter and earn money
Why Dont You Put Straps Point On The Trailer And You Can Strap The Wood
I usually don't use straps. I reckon the straps would be necessary when driving on public roads but here in the middle of nowhere nobody cares. :D But thanks for the suggestion!
Hi donn any ideas on making a table saw with a large circular saw blade for cutting firewood
it all depends of your needs, whats regular log diameter you are cutting and how much firewood you cut, if you are doing it at home and have to cut like 5 m3 of wood per year then it is easyer to buy an electrical chainsaw and make a sawhorse to place a log to. If you are cutting small diameter wood and pallets, then get yourself a skilsaw buy a piece of osb and build yourself a small tablesaw, youtube has lots of videos about this.
purask I want to make 1 to cut 6-10" timber in 6' lengths quicker than using my chainsaws
check out cecil clarcks home stead channel, he has a couple of these saws that are run off a tractor pulley, and have a pivoting table that moves the log through the blade, you could make one any size youneed just need a big enough blade, a couple pillow block bears and shaft plus the pivoting steel table, and run it off of any engine or electric motor you deem suitable
Andrew Browner I'm subbed to his channel thanks
Kolko prikolica para
this must be England i see safety gear
