- Come take a stroll around the NYS Woodsmen's Field Days 2023 in Boonville New York on today's episode. You'll see equipment you may never have even known existed. You'll also meet some people you recognize. As a first time visitor to the logging show, I had to pick my jaw up off the floor several times as I've never seen so much high-quality logging equipment all in one place before. After several hours of touring around the show I still find myself in awe at just how much there was in the way of sawing, splitting and general forestry-related equipment. Aside from all the equipment, the number of people I had a chance to talk to was awesome. Lots of great people out at the show. Glad you're all here for the tour!

Thanks John!
Very nice video Sandy. It was great to meet you at the show. I was humbled that you were aware of my channel! I think a mill may be in my future… I’m sure I will be revisiting many of your videos.

Hey Craig! Be sure to say hello if you see me at the show. Would be great to chat
Cool seeing the Morgans there. I do watch you both. I think watching you was the reason he started coming up in my feed. Anyway, decent overlap and seeing the thumbnail, you already know that. Cheers.

Was really great to see you again Sandy!!!
Great to chat with you Andrew!
Thank you for cheering! Maybe get the ponsse forwarder when you already were there 😂. it would suit your forest perfectly😉 maybe a ”bit” too big and also just a ”bit” expansive side
I sure wouldn't turn down that forwarder following me home haha
That was great sandy hey I see you mit up with Mike morgan from out with the morgans that was great you guys are great
Hi David! Yeah had a great time talking with Mike as well as many others. The amount of equipment was something to see for sure
It was nice to meet you and your wife Sandy! Hope to see you again next year!
Absolutely! Was great chatting with you
Fun little trip. You can't keep your eyes off those feller bunchers can you, lol. Good vid. Thanks.
hahah I was in awe the whole time
I saw your next purchase . The splitter with the elevator . lol
Hahah you saw me dreaming
Oh I missed this episode! looks like it was a fun time! 2 of my fav youtubers shaking hands no less That Ponsse forwarder is a beast. It's just slightly larger than my 25HP Alstor hehe. I keep forgetting to go to the Agri and forest expo around here. So many things you dont know that you dont know. Thanks for taking us along!
That is pure joy on your face...like a kid in a candy shop. Love it! I had no idea such a show existed. Very cool! Thanks for sharing...cheers from Ontario Canada!
I was in shock for a while. I had never seen this much equipment in one spot before. Especially the big logging equipment
Boonville was a lot of fun it was a pleasure talking to you and your wife that u kinda keep hiding keep the great videos coming!!
It was great meeting you there! Always nice to hear from people here in the community in person! Hope you had a good trip back
Like to see the new stuff.
I'm with ya there. Great to see the equipment up close
hard working tools and toys
Some of the equipment was HUGE. I had to sit in all the big equipment and dream haha
Wow!!! I bet you could spend some money there!!!
That looked fun, I hope you got to go on all the rides you wanted to. lol
I sure made my rounds riding around in whatever they'd let me sit in haha
They had some really cool stuff for sure. Kudos to the camera man, (I assume your Dad), for doing a great job filming the adventure.@@sawingwithsandy
Many thousands on the big machines!Thanks for taking us along.
Absolutely! Some of the machines were over a 1million Canadian funds. Yikes!
@sawingwithsandy yikes yes, but production is gravey. We operate Ponsse equipment south of you, plantation and hardwood thinning, my back thanks me and my wife and kids see me every night, and with the dead ash amongst us, my cab is better then any hard hat lol.
Cool videos, keep it real!
And all decked out in your Canadian lumberjack attire eh! 🇨🇦
That's my grocery shopping shirt, sawmill shirt, dinner shirt haha
You looked right at home at that show! I seen you shake hands with Mike from Outdoor with the Morgan’s, that’s another channel I watch! Mike has a split force I seen you running Sandy, those look really nice! You looked really good in one of those mini excavators though! Looks like a great show! ✌🏼❤️🙏🏼
Hi Mark! I could've spent millions at that show that's for sure. I sat in those giant forwarders and was starting to dream haha
@@sawingwithsandy yeah us normal blue collar guys just can’t afford them cool toys, but you’ve come along way in the last year or so with some of your toys! Looking forward to seeing your next video! ✌🏼❤️🙏🏼
Thanks Mark!
Nice tour out there.
I am still thinking about the Paul Bunyan show in Ohio this year
I sure would like to goto that show as well. The challenge for me is the distance. I hear it's a good show though
@@sawingwithsandy
I know it 900 miles for us also
Have you been to Bunyan before? Just wondering how it compares to NYS field days
Thanks for showing us around. My brother was exhibiting wood boilers there; he's the dealer for central boiler. Good stuff they sell. I've had one 15 years now and it's a beast of a unit that he retrofitted into my two forced air furnace units. Nothing beats it on a windy, subzero day.
I actually was looking pretty hard at those Central Boiler's. I sure wouldn't mind one. I 've got an endless supply of wood to keep it going. Heat my home and shop with it.
@@sawingwithsandy I have one of the previous 'next gen' models that are gassifiers - they burn the waste smoke as fuel. Once they warm up and get a bed of coals, there is no smoke. Smoke is super-heated when pulled down through the coals, then injected with air. The result looks like a gas furnace blasting full bore (which is what it becomes). The lower burn chamber hits 1800+ degrees. My kids call it the dragon.
It heats about 500 gallons of water to 185-195 degrees. It travels underground about 100' into my basement (losing maybe 1 degree) and makes a loop through my basement and attic (furnaces in both locations) and another floor loop under stone tile. It's awesome. But they need seasoned wood. Wet stuff will work, but it'll be work.
My brother advises to NOT use a lot of electronic valve controllers or gadgets. The system he built me is mostly passive - two pumps and a design that passively manages temps for the floor tile without electronic things. Never failed in 15 years, other than normal pump maintenance.
So if you go the boiler route (I'd say yes), find someone who has done hundreds of installs and will walk you through a mostly passive design. Then hire them for it, rather than DIY. Money well spent.
Oh, the new central boiler models have optional remote monitoring. I thought it was a gimmick, but then my brother brings up his dealer monitoring system and shows me how he can get alerts from dozens boilers about failing parts, worn seals, bad wood or whatever. He calls people before the problem shows up, and has the warranty parts in hand before needed. It's a smart system (you can optionally turn it off). He can even give advice to owners who are having issues, by remotely monitoring burn cycles. We were fishing on vacation one day, and he called two customers and told them, "stop opening the door. You're not letting the machine do its work. It will ping you when it wants to be fed."
Sorry for the long response. Just sharing what I know, to a guy who likes to share what he knows. Thanks.
I've thought about doing away with my wood stove and going that route but my main concern is I don't have in floor heating or a basement to allow for easy movement of the water to heat my home
@@sawingwithsandy My primary heat was two gas furnaces and still are. There are hydronic radiators that fit into the plenum output side of the gas furnace which the water connects into. So all I need is the furnace fan - no gas - to heat the house. I actually wire the thermostat to fire nothing but fan (just pull the wire for the gas igniter).
The flooring heat is nice because stone in winter is cold. It's not the primary heat, but it's nice having a floor at 85 degrees when it's a blizzard outside. Nice, but not strictly required. Carpet feels great, too.
You don't need a basement. Just trench down about 24" and then route up throough your crawlspace, or along the outside and into the wall. It's all insulated.
The route for us is: boiler, push pump ( 9 GPH), 100+' trench, basement furnace coil, basement gas water heater, 75' to attic, attic furance coil, 75' back to basement, 55 gallon water heater (not plugged in) that feeds the floor coils, back to boiler. Not a single electronic valve in there anywhere.
The floor heat uses one additional pump for the floor coils (6 in total) and feeds from a 55 gallon water heater we bought just to hold the water. It is cooler than the main boiler line using a passive system my brother designed...it's not a DIY. But it drops the 180+ degree water to about 115, so you don't overheat the floor tiles.
The floor loops can be turned off with no effect on the house heat. Some days - when it's not too cold - the addition of the floor heat can force you to pop open house windows. So we leave it off.
I'll send you an email with his contact info. He's not hurting for sales, so this isn't me pimping his business. You are probably too far from him anyway. I just know he's the kind of guy who can answer your questions.
Hi Sandy. I saw your standalone chipper/shredder for your slab wood. I know it was fun. Phillip Virnig let the cat out of the bag. Have good days!
That Salsco was a nice setup for sure!
good video glad you had a good trip i use to go to a few when i had the money to buy. use to be at the shows on the last day you could get some good deals they didn't want to truck things back.a lot of wood splitter and sawmills still have a long wait time. did you make a top 10 list of what you would like to get? take care, be safe and well.
Hi John. There were so many quality pieces of equipment there I don't think I can name a top 10. I feel fortunate with what I have right now so hopefully I can just keep those things going
Enjoy your video and the show in NY. Also, I like your camera person . They have a great eye and steady hand. How can you afford a professional videographer ?
Thank you. I don't have a professional videographer here but they sure do a great job
Like a kid in a candy store, awsome stuff there, thanks for taking us along.
Sure was a treat
MM77 Approved 👍🏼👍🏼……………………………………………………You looked like a kid in a candy store!! LOL
if only I could've brought some of that equipment home haha
Morning Sandy, Just saw the short about the Log Trailer Hope the fires didn't get you. John
I’m not a religious man. But I think if there is a heaven that’s what it would look like.
It sure is a great place to spend a day (or 3 haha)
Some nice equipment there Sandy I hope a few of them hook you up with some equipment 👊👍
I wanted to bring some of it home but unfortunately I came back with nothing more than a sun tan haha
Hey Sandy, how much did you spend... if only - "Fantasy money?" I saw you climb into the cab of that mini-ex. You get one of those and you'll have to change the name of your show to: "Trenching & Digging With Sandy!" I did a project the last couple of days... I built a set of drawers that fit in the cabinet under my metal lathe. Built it all out of scrap lumber. Half way thru the project, my table saw motor died (1hp, belt drive, 10" Craftsman). Damn, they just don't build stuff to last. I've only been using that saw for 50 years! thought about a new saw... until I checked the prices! A new motor is a lot cheaper!!
I would've spent millions if I could and drove that tree harvester and forwarder right back to my place. Sorry to hear about the table saw. Seems like everything gets more and more expensive each day
If they need a real woodsman to model inside their equipment they should ask for Sandy. To look the part, a lumberman's axe carried in hand would've closed the deal. Nice video on all the goodies a lumberman could want.
Glad you came along for this one. Was a great time all around
Good morning Sandy you look like a kid in a man's toy store lol.
looks like it would be very enjoyable to look at all those machinery and dream at owning some of them there surely was some expensive stuff there .
Glad you enjoyed it , and have a great day
It sure was a great time. I was asking about the John Deere Tree Harvester that I was sitting in and it was $700,000 US
Great video as always, Sandy! Two things in there surprised me (if I say them right), the first was a firewood processor with a circular saw (instead of a chainsaw), and the second looked like an entire firewood processor on the front of a skid steer. Was that a single implement? Did I see that right? Thanks again!
I had heard you were there but didn't cross paths with you. Maybe next time.
Next year for sure!
I would imagine that it took you quite awhile to go through all of the displays and demos, and you still didn’t get to see them all. 😁😉😄
I had a hard time keeping moving sometimes as I wanted to stay and look at some equipment longer
which of the Vertical Splitter do you like, the 13/20 or the AXIS,
They both were nice machines to run. I found the Eastonmade had great feel on the foot control and the large log lift was Nice
Hi Sandy, did you meet Mike Morgan at Booneville? He has a channel called outdoors with the Morgans. His channel is similar to yours. He spent a lot of time at the Woodmiser and Stihl booths.
Yeah, saw them shake hands - wonder how many 'tubers were out there, lol
Hi Wayne, yeah I got talking to Mike at the show. Great guy. Had a great time meeting with many other TH-camrs and sawyers alike. Was a great time away
those vertical splitters look to easier on back👍👍
It was quite nice to use. Comfortable for sure
Sorry I'm late with the Video's Sandy.
You met a few You Tubers that I have met in person too.
Did You meet Bob Metsa from Metsa Machines? Yappa Splitters I live close to His Dealership.
Thanks, Mike M.
Glad to see you made it to the Wood Show in NY, welcome to the US!! I see you meet Mike Morgan there, we watch his channel also, he has an interesting channel, your's is better!!😅 Was your Dad with you at the show?
Was an awesome show! I like getting to the US from time to time as well for a vacation. Was nice countryside driving down through the part of NYS near Boonville. Very impressive farms. My Dad didn't make it to the show unfortunately.
just like a little kid at a circus. didn't see you carrying a cup of mud and a fried bologna sandwich though. }:)
Was a great time for sure
Someday I’d love to go to one of those shows, thanks for sharing, I’d like to know what’s your takeaway between the split fire vertical splitter vs the Eastonmade axis??
Great video take care
Thanks Russell. I found the working height of the Eastonmade to be very comfortable. The pedal feel on it was also good and allowed this first-timer to have good control of the split
Who's your camera operator?
My wife was running the camera today
Random question.... Does liking comments in the comment section, and responding to some of them help the You Tube algorithm?
Good question Wallace. I believe it does help
dont u be looking at other girls now, you sweetheart will start acting up on u, mills that is...lol
hahaha
Drop music, can’t watch
