Good video. My dad passed away fist few days of this year. So wish he was here and we could work like this together with his tractor. Enjoy all you can Andrew
I'm sorry to hear that! I definitely need to appreciate these times together
Enjoyed it, nice of you to help out your pop. Those vines are a nightmare!
I HATE vines with a passion! It's definitely good to spend time with dad, especially when it includes running a chainsaw.
That’s some good wood, and your family has a beautiful place , keep the videos coming brother, god bless
Thank you, God bless!
I am happy that you like that Hookroon by Logrite made in the USA, in time you will be a pro with it, looks like you enjoy using it, great video Andrew and it nice to spend time with Dad too.
Yes I'm still learning how much pressure to apply and the sweet spot on the wood for proper hookaroon use. I can definitely see that it's going to be a back saver. It's always nice to spend a little time with dad. Take care!
@@TKCL I just bought one a few weeks ago, and you're right... takes a bit to get used to, but it's a backsaver for sure!
Love seeing the tractor getting a good workout hauling wood and pulling logs. Great job on dropping the trees.
Yes dads tractor doesn't see near the use mine does, it needs to get out of the barn more often.
Love that live oak canopy you are standing under - just beautiful!! - Rick
Yes it is beautiful! Reminds me of the south
The 4052 looks a little light in the rear... if you haven't done it already, get those rear tires loaded with RimGard (beet juice)... that stuff weighs something like 10 lbs per gallon... makes a world of difference. Well worth the cost. Non toxic, non corrosive, and heavier than almost anything else you can load the tires with, even calcium chloride if I remember correctly.
I did my rear tires on my tractor, like I said, it made a world of difference.
The tires are loaded, our dealers won't sell a tractor with a loader if the tires are not filled. We should have put a counterbalance on the back.
Those tools are really saving your back
Yes they are!
The hookaroon or pickaroon is a mighty convenient piece of equipment once you get the hang of it. The wife and I are headed down to a town named Panacea at the end of the month for a little rv style camping. It looks like it's on US319 south of Tallahassee. I guess that I should leave most of my Clemson gear at home for this trip. Nice haul of wood.
I know panacea well, eat at Angelo's for some fresh seafood. But don't shy away from the little roadside restaurants (like Poseys), they don't look like much but have great food also. Welcome to Seminole country!
Get er done
Hard work man , missing my dad after watching this . God Bless
I definitely need to appreciate these times. Take care and God bless
My Buddy love me some Bobby Kelley. One of the finest man you’ll ever meet .
Yes he is!
ANDREW hello man how you doing. Man it feels good to see video again that I have been missing. I heard you had a birthday the beginning of the month. " HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU MAN " I also hear you got yourself a lil dump trailer. I apologize for being late but I was in the hospital on your birthday. I don't know if this was a good idea having this foot surgery done on both feet man. That was awesome you got to hang out with your dad and your uncle for the day. got you a good decent load of wood. I guess you like this arctic cold blast we are getting. I guess I got some catching up to do man.
MACK! where have you been? Tiffany and I were just talking about you and that we have not heard from you in a while! I hope hope that surgery went well and that you heal quickly!
Nice haul!
Thanks
I noticed you said that was closed cell insulation in your shop. Would open cell not work well in a ceiling?
It would, but one major thing I like about closed cell is the structural integrity it adds to the tin roof.
Try using the hookaroon in the side of the blook of wood close to the middle the bigger blocks just pick up closer the the spike
I'll try that out, thanks!
"Go baby Go!" good work
Thanks, we had to hustle! It was the only clear day we had.
Great video Andrew! A have some log tongs I really like them for firewood.
I definitely need a set, very soon!
@@TKCL I know your a Stihl man, but I have the Husquvarna large tongs. Believe they are the 12" ones. Money well spent!
I'm not against any GOOD brand!
Logrite makes good stuff. I have their log arch and its well built and comes in handy moving logs.
That does look like a nice piece of equipment!
Great video Andrew, It's nice to see some different country. I can see what you mean about the vines, thankfully we don't have them.
I HATE vines with a passion! Make working in the woods, firewood ect a nightmare!
Nice weather you guys have. Its been in the low single digits here
That was the only nice day! Rain almost every day, now it's getting cold!
I feel for you. North west Louisiana dont get this cold.
I have driven in it while i was in the Military but these people around here get lost below 40.
Lol, we get excited about the 30s and 20s....thank God no snow here or single digits.
@@TKCL we got about 8" of Snow. Now its turning to Ice. They have officially shut North Louisiana Down for almost a week now.
I-20 has been shut down for 2 days
Good thing you didn't get the wooden handle picaroon. That one over strike would have broke it... That's how it works ya know. Nice new to, first use, little almost nothing of a mistake... $40 tool in the trash.
Good choice on the log rite set.
Yes without a doubt aluminum handles and steel parts are the way to go! Logrite seems to be a well made product
In the trash???? Why??? Just put a new handle on it.
Nice felling , that wood will keep you busy for awhile
Oh yes it will!
Been going steer crazy waiting for a video
Sorry brother, too much rain over here! It's messing everything up
Don't you just like it when you give hand signals and The operators never pay attention or do what you say LMFAO 😆.
Lol! All the time, but I've got some pretty crazy hand signals too. Dad didn't know if he should curl the bucket or steal third lol 😂.
@@TKCL LoL 👍 damn near pissed myself
😃
That’s some nice cutting! Great video!
Thanks for watching!
Great video Andrew, supposed to rain in SE Georgia all day tomorrow and then clear up for about a week, hope so, chores falling behind. Be safe
Yep same forecast for us! Tomorrow has the potential to be bad, stay safe!
That's a big load of wood
Looking forward to busting it up
@@TKCL I bet you are. Can't wait to see the video!!!!
Should have a splitting video out tomorrow, chainsaw comparison video out tonight.
That was nice to get the trees pulled out, but now they are full of chain dulling sand and dirt! Ask me how I know that! HA!
Yes they are, that's why we left them alone sand side up to get rained on for a few days. As soon I seen all the sand I told my dad I wouldn't be cutting them lol.
Nice load of wood. And when you get home you can just hit the up button on the dump......... oh wait, guess not.
Ohhhh you dirty dog! That was below the belt lol 😂😂😂
@@TKCL I didn't want to say it, but I just had to.
I am going to have to come down there and show you how to drop trees and yell TIMBER
Dang it, I keep forgetting.... Sorry lol
how many rear wheel weights does your dad have on his JD.. is it enough to give him pull traction and also counter balance the front bucket and forks.. maybe you need to think about scrounging some rear wheel weights. if he does not have a set that just did not get installed yet..
He has none, just water filled tires. He won't add weights, very easy to add a 3pt attachment when needed. Those trees were a little heavier than expected.
How long is that Logrite Hookaroon? We have a lots of need for one and we have been looking for one but don’t know which one to get.
Was beginning to wonder about ya bud ha ha.
This weather, it's killing me. Nothing but rain and storms tomorrow too.
I know how it is bud we are In the middle of this wintery crap over here in Mississippi
I have been toying with the idea of getting a hookaroon Andrew. I think I just made up my mind.
I have never used one much because I use to have a cheap version and did not care for it. I'm really liking this new one, a back saver for sure.
I have a 4052M with a D170 loader. I have been wanting a bucket level indicator for it but it seems that you cannot get one unless you just engineer one yourself. Has your dad looked for one and found the same thing. I have tried to remember particular placements of the cylinders when it is level, but you know how that can be. Was just wondering your thoughts and if your dad had any ideas.
I thought dad's had the same bar indicator mine does. To be honest I don't even use mine, I just look at the top of the bucket. Next time I'm over at dad's I'll look. It's just a bolt on piece, I don't see why it wouldn't work on yours.
@@TKCL thank you. I am somewhat new to tractors so just learning my way around them.
It's a metal bar in a tube on the front right loader arm of the tractor near the front pivot part. The bar can be slid in and out of a tube so it's user adjustable for level indication. I'd double check if you have that. I can send you a picture via email of mine if you need it.
@@TKCL yeah, I don’t have that on mine. I just have trouble making sure the bucket is level with trying to level up the ground. My bucket angle is never right and digging to much or not enough. I probably just need to learn to look at the top of the bucket like you talked about. Thanks for the help.
It definitely takes time to master, but top of the bucket and a bunch of practice will get you there.
What do you think of the Hookaroon? Thought about getting one.
So far I Iike it!
I really enjoy burning my pignut hickory up here. Smells wonderful
That's why it's so wonderful for smoking meat! Great taste and smell!
I'd be willing to bet that you get a lot of BTUs out of that Pignut hickory. I smoked up some brisket with it and it was awesome.
@@paulatwood998 yes sir burns nice and hot
You have 2 awesome places to get wood from.
If we lived closer to each other I'd let you come cut on the 1200 acres I have
Oh wow! 1200 acres? I can only dream of having that much property one day 😍
Yep. Its awesome. You will get there
I'm happy for you, that's an amazing achievement.
Thanks.
Keep up the awesome videos. If you need anything feel free to message me
i know the feeling of cutting down a dead tree thats too far gone. wheres the 500i ?
No 500, I have a 462. It'll be out in a video tomorrow afternoon. The old chainsaws still need some love too.
@@TKCL o crap I new that sorry. I ment 462. Latley all the new Stihl saws are 500i for some reason. Look forward to the next video!
Yes everyone is jumping on the 500i bandwagon, I guess I'm a rebel lol
@@TKCL gotta have the latest kewlest thing... even though it is waaayyyy overpriced for the performance.
@@TKCL i just watched buckin bill rays latest video. 500i has a problem he says. the 462 out performed it lol.
Nice video nice wood you do good work Buddy tell your wife I said hello and to keep her long hair text me back buddy God bless your family
Thanks Ralph! Take care, God bless!
