Awesome Daniel! I do music in some of my vids but not all, I try to change it up so its not always the same thing and the content appeals to a bigger audience. I appreciate the feedback! Thank you for watching and commenting!
Brother, you have come a long way. I bet you'd take 1/2 the time if not less with your newer equipment. Congratulations on your growth! Live long and prosper!! 😃
@@davidwillard7334 it's people like you that are dumb and not educated most of the stuff he cuts down are lots that are already in cities are backyards get over it fuck the animals
Chuckle, I cant believe I watched the whole hour of this. Extremely satisfying, man that thing just ate everything. Yes I live in the city and have no use for one but I must have one!😁
Been eyeing the fecon mulcher attachment for the skid steers. They are efficient in dealing sapplings, not really meant for mowing but they would make light working in cutting a path through those trees for sure. Upstate brush control uses theres alot in there vids.
WOW! I’m always amazed at how that machine just cuts through anything. In the end the job is done and I’m sure the guy that wanted it done was happy with how it turned out. Good job! 💯👍
I didn't think it was going to make it thru those trees and bushes look like they were getting the better of you. Made for a good video thank you for sharing and please keep them coming.
Hey Susie! Yeah you can get a wide variety of attachments for skid steers these days! I hope bigfoot didn't see me, I'd be driving the other way for sure! Thank you for watching and commenting!
@@France2107 Hell if i know lol. I was just messing with him anyways. I watch every vid this guy comes out with and love every min of them. I even hit that like button. : )
Hahahahaha! Every time I watch you it brings back memories of cutting 4wheeler trailers here in eastern NC but doing it the old way. Sling blades, weed eaters with brush blades, Bush ax’s, machetes, chainsaws and my trusty DR bush cutter. You make it look easy. Hahahahaha! Stay safe and if you have a GPS in that rig?
Thank you for the video! Always enjoy watching your efforts for us. As for the limit of clearing, adjacent to the county road, I'm assuming you discussed that with the property owner(?). If they were expecting the area from where the county ended maintenance to the treeline to be brush hogged, it wouldn't seem practical or desirable to leave a strip of grass unmowed. Typically the county's flail-type mowers are less forgiving, then your capability. As always, you want to keep up your great reputation for satisfied customers.
What kind / brands of mulching heads have you tried? Ever thought about a Denis Cimaf or a CAT branded unit by cimaf? Mowers are great we use brown mowers and a few other brands. I there is also FAE mulching heads. I also highly recommend the ground shark by Paladin MFG Anyway I’m in Atlanta I work for the local CAT dealer if you ever have any questions let me know would be glad to help!!
I have a question, I use a Bobcat T650 and a Diamond cutter and I just keep the deck a few inches up and just drive through the brush, I cut stuff off 3" diameter and just keep going. Why do you lift the deck up and cut the side of the tree? Seems like you method would take forever?
Question about the blades and carbide teeth. I would think the carbide teeth would be facing the other direction? I use a tooth that looks very similar to those carbide teeth on my stump grinder. I face the carbide side in the direction I’m cutting. I’m not criticizing, just asking. I may not be seeing it correctly or not understand how your machine works. I’m looking to pick up a brush cutter soon and need to know to expect from these machines. Thank you
Great question! So the cutter is bi-directional, you can cut both ways with it. The only downside to that is when you reverse the flow you do lose some of the mulching capacity of the teeth and it does tend to tear the teeth up a little bit more. But you don't have to reverse the flow, I just did it to see how it would work and to get more life out of the blades before changing them. If you watch my most recent video I just had a new flywheel installed with newer, stronger blades and more mulching teeth. If you have any other questions let me know! Thanks!
@@idigit4967 a follow up question, how much do you think the carbide teeth help in mowing and chopping? If you only had the main blades do you think you could do the work you are now doing?
@@darrenswoodworks8695 I could definitely do the work I am doing now with just the blades without the teeth. MTL makes this cutter with a teeth or no teeth option. I think the teeth definitely help with processing material on the ground once its cut down. It also helps chew up anything that may stick up and rub on the bottom of the flywheel and just makes cutting more efficient when doing larger material. But if you are doing more grassy material then the teeth will only cause more drag and slow the flywheel down and not do much so it depends on what you are mostly cutting. But I do a little of both and I really like the teeth even if I'm not as efficient when cutting grass.
Yeah but a Fecon is usually $18-25,000, and an MTL is around 5 grand...not everyone can buy the most expensive piece of equipment when they are a small outfit. Do you own any type of brush mulcher? Or a skid steer? Or just a fecon employee lol
I am a new subscriber there is something weirdly satisfying about watching this video 😎 I have never seen one of these machines used in Australia where I live I suppose we have them it looks very powerful for a small machine Looks like not to take too much ,just small bites is the secret to it not jamming up etc 👍 some nice Christmas trees in there 👀 I wonder how many snakes he comes across Or dead bodies 😳
Why do most people lift the cutter head, even when the machine seem to be chopping the under growth easily? I've seen one person keep the head near the ground.
They are an axe style blade, 3/4” thick. They do surprisingly well with what they are put through. They are reversible. Most guys get a hundred hours or so out of a set pushing them hard.
Wait... What happens if the ditch is very low and or something is hard underneath? Are you able to avoid falling into a ditch? Be careful! Love your videos.
I know next to nothing about this type of machinery, but when you were showing the deck it looked like the carbide cutters had their carbide teeth "backwards". Do you reverse rotation when you use them? What am I missing here? Thanks, really enjoyed the video! @59:13
I had the blade rotation reversed in this vid so I could use the other side of the blades. When you do that the carbides are facing the wrong direction which is not ideal but the cutter still works fine. It's bi-directional by design. Thanks for watching Matt, glad you enjoyed!
That makes no sense. Your telling us you flipped over 3 blades to use them on the other side which again makes no sense. Just admit you installed the blades wrong.
What would happen if you had a break down way back in there? Who would you call? Also, it would be a lot more interesting if you would provide some commentary along the way.
I would probably call the local Deere dealership Flint Equipment, they would send out a mobile service truck if it was something I couldn't handle myself.
How many hours do you put on your ASV a year? Can you give me a range of if you were slow all the time and if you were full on, wide open working everyday all day trying to keep up? Is 1,000 hours a year on a machine low or high time for example?
This is not a ASV, its a John Deere 329E, 2013 model. I bought it used at almost 2000 hours in 2018. I've put about 300 hours on it since. I would say 1000 hours in a year is a good bit of usage, that comes out to about 20 hours a week of run time. Not extreme but you're definitely getting your money's worth at that rate of hours or more.
Just depends on what you are cutting. Each has its advantages and disadvantages. If you're cutting lighter brush and grass go with the mower, if its more trees 5-8" thick go with a mulcher.
The little trees are all new growth after an area is logged off, they come in as thick as hair then eventually as they grow some die off to make room for the trees to grow bigger, same happens when a fire goes through an area, very good observation
What was the holdup? If you run your diamond cutter a that low a speed your going to burn the blade up. Don’t be afraid to cut any grass with it. Hey crank up the rpm on your blade. The only time you raise an lower your blade is when you incounter bigger trees. 3 to 8 in it will munch down on some greens. It will shred up to an 8 to 9 inch tree they’ll be afraid to use it that’s what it was built for they should carry a warranty that lets you cut foliage down you should down that road in 20 to 30 minutes at the most. I’ll run them units were they first come out. Don’t be afraid of it what it was designed for Cesar got a blade on it that has Keith on it or what it looks like blades on a Bush hog. Like I said don’t be afraid of it get down on some foliage is there’s your dinner
When you were at the very back when you were turning around that one time, on your left side in the old looks like tree stump or pile of debre was that a chunk of Brown Steel on the ground?
Great question Sonnie! I do not have GPS but that tree line was basically the line I was to follow so I just hugged it as close as I could! Thank you for watching and commenting!
I like the camera ride along and no music. You can hear the breaking, cracking, grinding of the trees, love it.
One main reason I watch you over others is NO MUSIC fill in ...great job...

I'm so hooked on these videos. Just love how this machine works 👍🏼
WOW! what a machine...so fun to watch. I can’t imagine how long it would have taken to manually clear that. 👍
Yeah it would have taken awhile to do by hand for sure! Thanks for watching and commenting Kathryn!

It almost makes me cry how easily those beautiful trees come down and yet I love this amazing machine.
@ruZZkik_haZatoday I learned that pine trees are not trees. FFS
Your John Deere works well cutting brush and I like the way that you treat it carefully so you don’t end up with huge unnecessary repair bills .
Now that is a road clearing! Thank you for the full coverage.
Thanks for watching!
Dude I love your videos I love watching all the stuff get cut down and cleared it makes it look so much better

That beast just eats it up!
I think a FECON brush mulcher works best and faster in this situations.. 👍
if he wasn't overly cautious. he would have got it done way sooner. these skidsteers brushhog are meant to handle way more abuse
Yeah but a Fecon is usually $18-25,000, and an MTL is around 5 grand...not everyone can buy the most expensive piece of equipment when they are a small outfit. Do you own any type of brush mulcher? Or a skid steer? Or just a fecon employee lol

You should remake the movie : Hunnie ....I shrunk the grasses !!! ...😁😁😁
Wait... If there is brick or a large stone, would the machine go over it or would it break/crack the blade?
It would probably try to grind it up, the blades are AR 400 steel, they may take a dent but they won't break or crack.
Great job man
I love your show!
Thank you Carole! Glad you found the channel and are enjoying the content!
How often do you have to Replace the blades? It would seem before every job considering the stuff they take on.

Nice job and video like always
Thanks Donnie! Glad you are enjoying the content!

Love your videos. Wouldn’t a rotary mulcher be more efficient?
I was thinking that too, but wondering if this before he had the mulcher.
I just hope he be safe before and after his work is done
Always! Safety is at the top of my list everyday!
I wish I could find a job doing this
Wait... What happens if the ditch is very low and or something is hard underneath? Are you able to avoid falling into a ditch? Be careful! Love your videos.
If the ditch is very low we may not be able to cross it. Just have to be careful and evaluate as we go. We always try to avoid falling in the ditch!

What mower are using?
Do you have a preference of brush mower or forestry mulcher and why? If one was going to rent one for property line clearing what would you recommend?
Just depends on what you are cutting. Each has its advantages and disadvantages. If you're cutting lighter brush and grass go with the mower, if its more trees 5-8" thick go with a mulcher.
59:15 Were the carbide grinder plates welded on backwards? Or is the rotation bi-directional and only one side had excessive wear?
The rotation is bi-directional.
@@idigit4967 I was kinda thinking that.
I sure hope you were working for whoever owns the young pine plantation because you sure munched alot of the young trees😄
Oh for sure! I was within the owners property line.
Awesome Job!!
Thanks Greg!
Those must be pulp trees because there is no way close packed timber like that will ever get big enough for decent lumber.
The little trees are all new growth after an area is logged off, they come in as thick as hair then eventually as they grow some die off to make room for the trees to grow bigger, same happens when a fire goes through an area, very good observation
Or poles and piling.
Good job , a little disking and that will do it, like the way you take care of the equipment, expensive.

G'day great video mate
Glad you enjoyed it!
What was the holdup? If you run your diamond cutter a that low a speed your going to burn the blade up. Don’t be afraid to cut any grass with it. Hey crank up the rpm on your blade. The only time you raise an lower your blade is when you incounter bigger trees. 3 to 8 in it will munch down on some greens. It will shred up to an 8 to 9 inch tree they’ll be afraid to use it that’s what it was built for they should carry a warranty that lets you cut foliage down you should down that road in 20 to 30 minutes at the most. I’ll run them units were they first come out. Don’t be afraid of it what it was designed for Cesar got a blade on it that has Keith on it or what it looks like blades on a Bush hog. Like I said don’t be afraid of it get down on some foliage is there’s your dinner
When you were at the very back when you were turning around that one time, on your left side in the old looks like tree stump or pile of debre was that a chunk of Brown Steel on the ground?
Not sure, I didn't notice it.
This reminds me of the " Six Million Dollar Man " episode with the Death Machine/Mars Probe.
Why don’t you go down way and turn around and go up the other way
Do you have a GPS on your machine? I’m curious how you kept your bearings!
