Thank you for watching, this is Tulip poplar, it’s not worth much, a soft hardwood but good for painting. This tree was harvested in Summer so it’s mostly all hart wood.
I'm assuming you do like a ramp or something? I wouldnt know whats better or not. Would love to do this one day and have chickens and such. Love the vid🤟
Just a little FYI from a chicken farmer. Wood coops don't last. Chicken crap everywhere and don't care where they crap. Even a simple coop will get you eggs. Chickens don't care. Coops like this are for the people only.
thank you kindly ! Yes you are correct, I’ll build a ramp coming out but build it in a two level so I can keep it close to the coop and save as much run space as possible.
Cant argue that, I had a issue with the saw over heating and vapor locking on me the week previous due to the heat and a chain that wasn’t getting it, wasn’t taking any chances yesterday. On the job and off in a hour and back in the AC of the truck in under two hours lol
They are so smart ! It really Blew my mind, we got him at 8 weeks and he’s consistently impressed us from house manors to in the field protection, I’ve kept him in tact because of this, he has a couple slight timid traits I’m not fond of but being only 14 months old he’s still a pup so I’m hopeful he’ll grow out of those and give us generations of amazing dudes just like himself ! ❤️
PLANT CATNIP YOU'LL HAVE A TON OF BEES ALWAYS PLANT CATNIP AROUND YOUR YARD I'VE GOT A 6 FOOT SQUARE PATCH YOU WON'T BELIEVE IT I SIT AND WATCH THEM BUMBLE BEES COME FIRST BUT HONEY 🍯 BEES MOVE MUCH MUCH MORE QUICKLY
That’s awesome ! We find ourselfs lucky, we have a old abandoned country store across the road, the walls are loaded with honey bees, it kicks out fresh swarms every spring and they come straight across to our property ! With such luck we plan to start catching the swarms and keeping our own👌 I’ll definitely try the catnip this year though, thank you for the tip !
This is a good friend of mine in Florida’s company, I’ll get a link for you and post it back here once he sends it, he sent me a huge box of swag awhile back 🤟
Is that a full house chain or full skip? I been looking at a 500i. 80cc saw stalling like that in little wood doesnt look good on it though. Anything done to it?
That’s a full house chain but the rakers are filed to far down ( more for soft wood ) if you have your rakers right for hardwoods you can dog in no problem, my favorite chain for that saw is a skip tooth, it’s become my favorite falling and bucking saw, they shine in big wood.
Sorry missed that last question, I have a fellers suspension kit , max flow air filter and a bark box installed. Stock cylinder and piston for now. I plan to build my OE372 one of these days , I want to do a 86cc build for it
Thank you for asking, I’ll try my best to give a quickest direct answer. Surrounding the firebox is a large water tank. The heat brings the water up to around 160 to 170 degrees. Fresh water from the house circulates threw coils inside the water tank sending hot water on demand threw the home. For the heat when the central air unit calls for heat ( thermostat ) it triggers a water pump on the wood boiler and sends hot water threw a heat exchanger under the home creating desired heat threw the duck work. That’s it in a nutshell . Hope this was helpful.
I thought it was just my saw that stalls through a cut, but yours is doing it too. There's little to no torque in the 500. It's a bit better with a 20" bar
That was error on my part, I had a chain on with low rakers for soft wood, that red oak stops just about anything in its tracks lol interesting though, I haven’t noticed any lack of torque issues with my 500 other than how fat it likes to run till it’s it large wood, can be annoying for sure !
Yes sir I will be continuing to post progress then a final walk threw when it is completed. Indeed it is poplar, I brought home a large 30” load from a tree job a couple years back, I’ll be mixing in some red oak also. Thank again !
lol yeah I pulled some long stands out for sure, with the hinge I was surprised but the tree wasn’t to be sold , milling myself and the rest firewood, back when I logged white oak never paid anyways get maybe two sticks from a tree and only ever paid by the ton never board feet
