As you know there is a good bit of Locust laying on the ground that needs to get bucked up. Well today that is getting done in the best way I have ever done it.

I use the same method to buck up my wood. I do have a word of advice though that I learned the hard way. Cut from each side back and forth. If you have too much weight on one side you will bend the coupler on the excavator and start to break pivot pins.

@Tonnsfabrication 10 ай бұрын

Ya it's really hard on it having all that weight out one side, we run a 35I and do this same process. What happens is the guy on the saw gets so excited because the process is sped up so much that they don't not allow the operator to make adjustments. When the machine starts moving stop cutting and step back, the operator is trying to help you not hurt you, this is a case where slower is faster.

@hotpotatoz 9 ай бұрын

All I can say is if you worried about that stuff , roll ur bucket so the back is on the ground , that way the log is balanced and the thumb is holding it in position.. there's no weight on the digger , everyone is safe

Joe, It appears you need a drop ball for your trailer to level up? The 033 is about all it wants to haul, I believe. Thanks for giving Brad a hand and hopefully it works out to where you could come back again. Definitely a fast and easy way of making rounds in a hurry!👍👍

@make-somedust 10 ай бұрын

Brad I thought I was about to learn something new. I was hooked for a minute, then …… let the wind out of my sails. Lol My biggest bottle neck is bucking logs, but my system works slightly faster then what you just showed, not by much just a little, using my skid steer, so I better stick with it. I’ll put up a video soon showing my method. Great show non the less… Make-somedust Chuck

Love it! I got so backed up with tree service wood one time that I rented a mini excavator to do exactly what you did here. It really speeds up the process and saves your back 👍👍 Although, I had to do it solo so I was constantly in and out of the machine. Still worth it though!

Nice work joe! That’s pretty cool brad. That’s how we used to do it when I would help my tree buddy with firewood years ago. We also used a mini ex to feed the chipper on big jobs. I try to hold logs up to buck with the grapple on our loader tractor but it’s not nearly efficient as a mini.

I do this with a kioti ck2610 and EA rootrake grapple. I dont get the sideways movement to pile it the way you do but i buck 20’ logs all day by myself at waist level. Cut a little from both sides so i dont break my equipment with uneven loads. Good work.

Brad if you still got your backhoe attachment that came with your skid steer you can put a thumb on it and used it the same way. Just be a lot of in and out the skid steer. Nice video. Mike Morgan uses his mini excavator the same way a lot. You can get a grapple like skidded kev has to pickup the logs. Just an idea. Have a great day safe

Black locust makes a good bow wood...if there are any bow makers in your area, they'd probably buy some whole logs off of you.

@dougmcfee8351 9 ай бұрын

You are correct, it cuts pretty fast you are just holding the weight of the saw. When the engine is not hanging out in air you are holding less weight and at the end of the day you are not as tired.

I use the same method with my Yanmar 3 ton excavator. I can handle up to 90 cm logs (round about 35 inch). I think, with my husky 592 XP-G i can take a good challenge to your 500i 😅
