Kubotas at play. Er, I mean work!

That looks like his power rake.

 

That is a Woods power rake. It's for fitting up yards. Also works great in driveways believe it or not !

 

We pushed this highly valuable... black walnut tree over a couple weeks ago...I think I posted a couple pics earlier......
Well, Saturday morning, it had finally dried out enough for us to clean it up. The smaller limbs and most of the trunk was put on the trash pile, had carpenter ants in it. Saved a little bit for farwood.
The fun part was the big stump...
We were able to roll it around some and get some dirt off, I put the semi-chisel chain on the XS4910 and cut it off close to the root swell.
Rolled it again and a nice chunk broke off...
Now the 'bota could handle the rest of the stump...
Got almost a trailer load of stump and roots from that tree. We also raked up a few small pine limbs too. Dumped it on the limb pile.
Filled in the stump hole best we could. It was still boggy in the bottom. We'll go over the area again with the tiller when it dries out.

 

That’s looks fantastic T.Jeff

 

Great job. Looks like fun too !!

 

Working good. Nice job.

 

Nice work all. Makes me want to get out there and do some tractor work. But my land is still a bit wet…and I really need to do the 50hr maintenance

 

Good way to pull and move some fence posts !

 

Must’ve been someone was ready to cash in on their retirement plan, huh?

 

Busy weekend, working on fencelines. A little over 20 years ago we fenced the cattle out of the stream, as part of a WHIP project. I hired someone to install it - she drilled the post holes, added the post, then a bag of Sackrete, and then dirt the rest of the way. I was sure they would rot (this was my first experience with pressure- treated posts). I pulled some out today, and the part of the post in the ground was in excellent shape. I’m impressed.



Also cut out some scraggly Cherry and dead American Elm along the fencelines as a preventative measure.

 

Loaded some old landscaping railroad ties into a Switch n Go dump today with the BX2380 .No problem ! No lift height issues either
3 at a time ? No problem !

 

Looks good. Nice tractor

 

Took a few days off to get out and work on processing all the rest of the blow down from over the winter. All in all everything went well, but was very hard work. I'm definitely thinking a winch is in my future!

This was where the blowdown was right across the road, the left (uphill) side had the upper portions of two medium maples and a large maple. On the right were the lower portion of the same maples, for those I could only "pull" them 2 ft at a time before driving forward, advancing the chain, and backing again. In the swampy area I had to cut and carry rounds out of by hand for another maple too far for my 35ft of chain/cable to reach.



Part of the haul from one day, I have a bit over double this still to be taken out (plus all the stuff to load in a trailer by hand).

 

Looks good, nice job

 

Had a couple walnut trees taken down. They left some nice logs and one thr guy told me was worth $65 so I kept it. A friend of mine just got a sawmill so I gave them to him.

 

Waiting for it

 

You might wait for a bit. This guy has lots of projects

but wîll post when it comes

 

Here’s the other log. It has ingrown bark.
