- Two tractors is better than one for the large brush and overgrown trees at the Radio Tower project. Tractor Time with Tim uses the John Deere 2038R with Baumalight Brush Mulcher while Christy uses the Ventrac with Tough Cut. Lots of drone footage as we tackle another portion of this overgrown 5 acre lot.

Wow that mulcher is impressive, I would have never thought it could take down trees that size!
I’m getting better at running it. Takes some finesse with such low HP!
Probably one of the best videos you guys have ever produced. Loved the drone views.
Wow, thanks!
Nice video tim and kristie and the drone makes beautiful pictures 👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Tim, I love your ‘lets have a go and sure see what happens’ and ‘get it done’ attitude. You can tell you grew up on a farm. Great vid, very informative as always.
Tim and Christy are AmeriCANS, not AmeriCAN'Ts !!!
Tim In a perfect world, you would have the larger unit for big jobs like this one and the smaller one for not so big jobs...... and have a drone drop off a big bag cheese burgers for when you were done.🍔😁 Vinny still impresses me a whole bunch, it's such a great machine. 🙋♂️👍
Hmm. I'm hungry. No time to reply!
Just kidding. Vinny just gets the job done. Nothing flashy. Just getter dun!
Really love the drone shots, it really show just how much your guys are doing...
Hey Tim, I can't tell you how useful your videos have been for me and my dad. I've ran directional drills, excavators, loaders, etc. for years, but when it comes to home gardening and compact tractors, you've saved us so much trial and error.v Thank you Sir
P.S. Put in our first sweet corn and green beans this year from 4thegrower.com
You guys tag-teamed the crap out of that lot. She knows what to do and where and the same for you. It's like synchronized swimming. Awesome
Stationary shots gave a good perspective on what was happening, plus the natural sound and voiceovers.
That was an amazing amount of work in about an hour. The two machines seemed to work really well together. While I agree a bigger tractor might be nice, what you used this day looked surprisingly sufficient. I think you're right, managing the horsepower is probably the key.
Vinny is a BEAST!
My 1025 tlb was delivered today. Way overkill for my 3/4 acre yard that needs alot of help. Just wanted to thank you for the videos and motivation. I've learned alot of invaluable information. In about an hour, I've got the yard mowed, and moved a brush pile that consumed half my back yard. This could have easily consumed my entire weekend before. I'm absolutely amazed at what such a small machine can do. Artillian comes next week(great folks) and heavy hitch probably around the same time... anyway enough of my long winded comment, just wanted to say thanks.
Congratulations!! Sounds like you are getting a great start!
💥 I bet you really enjoy when you and your lovely wife get to work side by side on a project. Enjoyed this one Tim and Christy. God bless.
Keep on tractoring!
Yes, it IS special. Very thankful for Christy!
Very impressed w/tree monster, and vinny/vinnie really showed off too!
Come on Tim. Another Tractor? I'm already suffering from Tractor envy.....
I always learn something new and valuable about the Johnny’s capabilities from you. As a new Johnny 2 owner, you have made my new journey very informed and filled with exciting anticipation. Thank you to you both!
Great information Tim 🇺🇸🚜🚜🚜
Hi Tim and Christy nice job and nice video
That was a great combination of both of you working on different machines and really getting it done!
Tim Christi those machines make quick work of heavy brush enjoy seeing you two put things through their paces
God Bless All
PaK
TTWT's driving school, I think I need a refresher course. Great video and the Drone camera shot was great to watch and no MUSIC.
Great job, it took me 28 years to convince the wife I needed a bigger tractor so don't give up Tim.
Y'all work great as a team thanks for the videos. I have been working on my tractor today repacking all hydraulic cylinder seals.
“There’s nothing to watch except TTWT” most relatable post of quarantine!!
Another nice vid. Nice that you can use tractor implements to accomplish this mission. But I must admit that I would love to bring the Bobcat skid steer and HD mower over to save some time! Take care!
Yea, all you skid steer guys are struggling to watch this! I understand! This project is definitely on the extreme end of a compact Tractor’s ability!
Skid steer would definitely be easier!
@@TractorTimewithTim Yea, but I love your tenacity Tim!! Before I got a skid steer (remember only a couple months ago) I was doing all the same things! Nothing to not be proud of!! Have a great weekend!
I really liked the over head view great job as always.
Well I certainly have a full grasp of how much you still have to do!!
Excellent video as always.
Mesmerizing! Loved this episode.
Getting it done! Looking good !
Great video. I enjoy seeing you and Christy testing products and clearing up the site. The Brush Mulcher does a great job for that situation. FYI, I actually have a 4052R, HST and am about 35 miles North of you. However, I don’t have a trailer capable of hauling it, if you’re interested. Blessings to you folks!
Oh my! Perfect size! Tim at tractor time with Tim dot com.
That’s an impressive piece of machinery, and you all made short work of that brush. Great video!
The tree monster is amazing. Love watching it work. Two perfect machines and attachments working together to get the job done. Another great video!
Need to try your tractor on the tree monster!
Nice work!👍
Great video. Nice to see that muncher at work. It’s hard to believe how effective it is on such large cedars. I also liked the verse at the end!
All of your videos, looks like so much fun
You are clearly a farmer at heart, get her done ;)
Great progress on the tower site brush clearing!
Probably my favorite video of yours so far! Love it! Love seeing that nasty Russian olive get chewed up. Love the drone shots and listening to the machines work. Great job!
Dang I would be having so much fun doing this and see the before and afters great job looks amazing so far
I think you had great equipment for the task at hand. Sure fascinating to watch the brush suck into the mulcher. Nice drown angle footage showing entire jobsite. Looks like fun to me!
Wow that equipment is amazing
You guys make a great team and do great work
Be well be safe
Thanks 👍
Loved this video the most, the aerial view seeing progress was great. Can’t wait to see all of it complete and I realize what a job it’s gonna be. Both you guys did great, I hope you don’t run into any bees in the trees or snakes on the ground. 😋
Yup, nothing better than ttwt. 😎
I have to admit, that tractor mulcher looks pretty good! Sure grinds it up for a tractor pto implement!
Great video
Nice work.
Great job ya'll!
great video
No Christmas this year. Tim took down all the trees!
You too are such a wonderful team! I really enjoyed all of the drone shots. Although the high elevation shots are great to get an overall view of the project, perhaps some lower elevations would help to get a more close-up view of what’s going on.
You're like the Mr Rogers of Tractors... Lol keep it up! 👍
Very nice
I'd love to see an update on this project Tim!
Yea, we need to get back out there and finish it now that the leaves are gone. We wanted to see how the mulchers performed with no leaves.
Afternoon Tim love the channel. Other equipment, 2 I'm looking at , Trailblazer flex with hydraulic unit, and a Forax GP40.
If you raise the front of the ventrac tough cut you can cut a lot of the bigger brush. Then lower it down to cut the stump off. We noticed when we cut brush here in Texas the tough cut splintered the stalks so the are less likely to puncture tires. Or main brush is youpon and mesquite
Enjoy these videos since I am unable to get on the equipment.
Several years ago I got a commercial brush clearer who contracts to clear easements for power companies to clear a lot of brush. His machine had a rotor cutter 4 feet high and 9 feet wide. He removed some trees 30-40 feet tall. The good thing was it left mulch on the ground which helps prevent erosion till grass and forbes can establish.
Great video, Tim and Christie! Another product I'd love to see reviewed because, except for Hollis Farms on TH-cam, very few videos, which are current, exist: Brown Tree Cutter. It seems it is the PTO, 3 pt hitch equivalent of a skid steer QA mounted hydraulic Diamond Cutter (enter other brand here). It really made great progress for Jason Hollis, and love to see a comparison. Keep up the great work...that 2038R is getting it done! Vinnie speaks for itself - great machine!!
The diamond cutter is like a brush mower except instead of swinging two blades, you're spinning a giant steel wheel with carbide teeth. It's a tree eating monster to be sure but it also has tons of momentum as well, which is a blessing and a curse for smaller horsepower machines. The upside is that momentum like that will allow the tractor to power through those situations where Tim killed the tractor with the drum type cutter. However, once that momentum is gone, it's a sustained struggle to build that momentum back up, which is quite a challenge for pto clutches and engines.
That mulcher does A great job 👍
I had to use A axe ,chainsaw and 3000 lb ATV winch to remove A 12 inch juniper stump last weekend I definitely could have used A stump grinder lol
The stationary drone footage is good in this case because we can see both Tim and Christy working at the same time.
Since you are mulching everything I wonder if the Tree clip from a couple of videos back would be a better front attachment than the grapple. Perhaps it would be faster to clip the 3- 5" trees than to mulch them?
Couldn't you put it on Johnny 5 and not push the engine RPMS up to normal for rear PTO attachements?
re: Johnny 5. Running a PTO attachment at lower RPM actually INCREASES the stress on it...dramatically. Running it faster decreases the stress on the shafts. I know, seems backwards...but it is true. We don't want to put a machine with 65PTO hp (tested) on an attachment rated for 40 PTO hp. If we were off by 5, maybe, but not 50%+!
Front mounted attachments: just bought 2 International 140's just for the front mounted cultivator set up and offset operator station.Bought the 2 because they were on an internet auction,going cheap,and both fit on the trailer I needed for the 1500 mile round trip.Some surprises but overall pleased and using one to cultivate already.Little over $5000.00 for the pair and both have complete cultivator set-ups. Also got a fast hitch 1 row plow in very good condition. Don't need the plow though.Got videos up if you want to see them. Neat little tractors and my back and neck say Thank You.
Love the 140’s ...what they Cub should have been! Just enough more horsepower to be useful.
@@TractorTimewithTim You tube question: when you see my comment are you seeing a yellow dozer pic or an "a" in a green circle? Playing with my set-ups.
@@amossnowdaharleyman9179 "a"
Impressive video again. I’d love to see a video, with the quick attach front loader brush cutter, trail blazer, land shark, or if any other companies out there, to see how that performs. But great videos as always! Keep them up.
Yea. Tried with both companies. Doubt you will see them here. Both are ...uh...strange to deal with.
You answered before I could send my correction. I was thinking It would sure be nice to see the Baumalight on the bigger tractor. I have a 6 Series and could use one but probably only for a few hours and I'd be done, so I haven't talked my wife into letting me buy one.
The Baumalight trencher would be cool too.
So I was impressed by the brush mulcher in several of your videos. I am in the market for an implement to replace my 60" rotary mower that's getting old and worn out and thought I'd check this out.
Holy Cripes! For the size appropriate for my tractor - 59-hp gross, 49-hp PTO - the mulcher has an MSRP of $17,000+! Out of the question. I think you should be up front with this information, even if it's an approximation.
Well, i think you could get by with the MP348. I would not jump to the $17k MP560.
Yes, expensive.
While this machine is amazing, it will not replace a rotary cutter.
Some thoughts... I've gotta say I'm really impressed on what Johny 2 and that BaumaLight brush mulcher are chewing up and spitting out. That said, one issue about using Johny 5, even with a bigger brush mulcher, could be the geared transmission. I believe your 5075E has a 12/12 hydraulic power reverser transmission with a wet main clutch. Judging by how much eHydro "creep and stop and creep" Johny 2 had to do, you might have to do a lot of clutching with Johny 5, even using 1st gear in its lowest A range. Although wet main clutches can take a lot of clutch "slippage" abuse, a creeper option would really help in this application. Unfortunately, I don't believe there is a creeper option available for the 5E 12/12 hydraulic reverser transmission. What to do, what to do... I'm guessing it would be very, very hard to get a new Johny 4 (4066R with 440R FEL) and a BaumaLight 580 approved by your very wise CFO. 😉
Love these brushhog videos! You said you wish you knew the acreage of the area covered, have you considered the JD mow app? I just downloaded it yesterday, haven't set it up or used it yet but it is supposed to cover distance and acreage. Not sure if it would be 100 percent accurate on the 2038 since it's alot of back and forth but might work well on Vinny.
I like the video from the drone when your just showing a overall project. Also I have not been getting notifications from your channel I have the bell clicked for all .
Hey Jeff. Do you get notifications from other channels?
@@TractorTimewithTim I do
Jeff Stewart frustrating. Guess there is nothing I can do about it.
@@TractorTimewithTim Ok I will try unsubscribing then resubscribing
Hi Christy and Tim (AKA Tom Sawyer) This would be a great project for Nolan! Tim could set up a grill and make CHEESEBURGERS and Supervise while the work gets done. LOL Enjoyed it as always, THANK YOU!!
I'd like to see the baumalight rotary brush mower.
You say you need more hydraulic power but that grinder was pushed well beyond spects and from what I saw did wonderful they should sell a bundle all because of you
More hydraulic power to run on one the front...with hydraulic motor.
Great videos Tim. Are you going to leave a few trees for looks or clear cut?
there is a really useful app for surface measurement: GPS Field Area Measure. I use it for large fields but it can be used with smaller fields so you can quickly get a view on your coverage (manually or tracked with gps walking/driving around your area).
Finding you acreage would be pretty easy with your drone. Download Drone Deploy and use it to fly your area you have cut and it will calculate your height differences and acreage. We use the software at work for surveying.
Great idea
Great video, thank ya'll. I can't afford a Ventrac, sad to say. Is there a front end loader mounted brush cutter that I could use on my Kubota L 2501 ?
Hi Tim have you seen the forax 40 mulcher? They are loader mounted mulchers. I would like to see you demo them. Oh and my jd 3520 has a front, mid and rear pto. I’ve never used the front or mid pro though. Great footage!
Thanks for the video! I'm wondering why the paths/routes the ventrac was taking, seemed to be so inefficient. Did the camera angle not show the "real" size of the area or possibly, the severity in the thickness it was mowing?
Thanks again and have a great day!
thats really nice to clear larger saplings. Tim, ive got 2 acres for you to come clear here in missouri. i sure could use a larger deere.
Would be fun!
Great Video! From the drone vantage point it looked like I was watching a game of Pac-Man! With safety in mind I would suggest wearing eye protection and a hardhat with all those chips and branches flying.
I dunno about the hard hat, but I definitely agree on the safety glasses. I did some more yesterday afternoon. Slightly different type of trees...and it was throwing stuff up at me much more. ...one more episode coming without safety glasses. ...so be patient.
@@TractorTimewithTim Or maybe a Stihl hard hat/face guard? I think I've seen Christy using that when she was doing some chain saw work.
what was the fuel consuption on both tractors because i use just a regualr belly mower on my garden tractor for small brush like christy was mowing and i go through just under 2 gallons of gasoline to the acre
you should see if you can demo a Brown tree cutter for johnny 5 they need like 45hp to run correctly but they can take down large trees with ease. if im not mistaken they are rated for up to a 12in tree but will take even larger without hurting your tractor.
Should you be doing this in bird nesting season?
would that attachment work on your 5 series? Also, you guys are such a great team!
A JD 4052 May be the ticket for the mulcher Tim 😉😉 😂.
Got one?
No sir. But I was sure looking at the dealership 2 days ago!! Looking hard at the 4052 and 4066😅. My 3038 is only 6 months old😬
You should try the brush mower on Johnny 5 because you might be able to go over the bushes faster as it has more power
Good Job. I think ya'll shoulduh kept 2-3 of those cidar trees to mow round there in the area for the beauty of that part of the property.
On those "guide wire base areas, ya'll should put some plastic PVC pipe there on the guide wires. . . . . . bout 6'ft---7'ft long & paint them a bright glossy orange color or bright fluorescent orangs color so ya'll can see em better(as a "seeable safety marker") the next time ya have to mow. i have one on my place that i have to mow round. It has a PVC on the guide wire but i need to paint it. just waiting for a nice, warm, non-windy day to do it. Thankya Tim & Kristie for sharing this video. Be safe & God bless!
How many tractors do ya'll have now(besides new 1025R Johnny & Vinnie) & what are they and do ya have names for em?
Same batch for the last year, Rodney. Welcome back...haven’t heard from you in awhile.
Check out website for our tractor list.
How much does that mulched run, also you said 40-50hp curious if it would work on a 3038e I’m thinking about purchasing with 4” trees
Hey tim great video as always. Really impressed with that mulcher. I was wondering how you like the versa turf tires. I have a kioti cs2210 with turf tires and am mostly happy with them but find I could use something a little more aggressive for the mud. Thanks
You are the perfect customer for the Versa turf tires!
what are your future plans for this area, will you convert it to a pasture and mow it once or twice a year?
Savesome trees for the tree monster on Johny 5. Like to see how the bigger tractor runs that even if its way over the hp range.
My dad was always at war with the Russian olives great to see how well this attachment takes care of them. How do you think my 25hp Tym T264 would handle this 48 inch model you have?
25hp would not be enough for this model.
Ha! we live 5 miles from the Cedars of Lebanon State Park here near Lebanon, TN.
Hi Tim great video would that mulcher work on a front pto
If it is 540 rpm, yes.
I would like to see you demo the turbo saw. It’s made in Iowa I think.
i guess it is quite off topic but do anyone know of a good site to stream new tv shows online ?
@Beckham Sonny Try flixzone. You can find it on google =)
@Beckham Sonny I watch on flixzone. Just google for it :)
I would love to try my 3720 on the tree monster. Love the vids keep up the good work.
Local?
Lawrenceville Illinois
Tim at tractor time with Tim dot com.
Vinny needs a red QH to match his paint job.
Yep. Need to get that I-Match off of there!
Looks great Tim and Christy!!. That brush mulcher really does a great job!. A few questions on Vinnie in this video: 1.) Are the dulls necessary here or where they just on the tractor at the time? 2.) Is that JD quick hitch on the back of Vinnie?
The duals were just on it already. Haven’t taken them off all spring.
Yes, that is a Deere I-Match on Vinny.
Is there a brush muncher that would work on the 1025? That is the tractor i'm going to get.
The "sound" of the engines, it's not noise.
We have the front pto's too but when I looked about all you can get is a Hay mower/snow blower for it. I don't think we have the attachments yet . Other than being able to cut hay and change front weights it's not really practical from what I seen plus have you seen what they cost WOW! I want one but have no place to use it lol. I really think the dealer need to have a masters degree to spec out a 6 series tractor so the farmer gets what he or she needs.
Do you ever come to the Albion IL area? i'd love to try that mulcher out on my Kubota L4060HSTC!
Hey Justin. I am an Edwards County High School Alumni! I’m certain that you know my family...Tom, Randall...
I bet your neck has to be hurtin, lookin back at the mulcher all the time.
Nice job.
Discussed at the end.
Are you going to plant new trees after cutting all these ones down?
