Thanks! i had no idea what was going on. I dont think the top could see what the bottom was doing.

Hey Dustin! I told Chris that I can 3d print you guys parts for your dji stuff if you need any thingiverse has quite a few different files for dji stuff. I just finished up some stuff for Chris. Going to check out your channel now.

@@SteadfastRC sweet! Yeah a clip for the battery onto the headset would be awesome. Thanks bro!

thanks for the kind feedback buddy! thanks for watching!

thabks! i hope it was at least 1080p when u viewed it!

@@chrisrohde7696 yeah I didn't check but it looked like more than 1080p, my wife watched it too she really liked it as well.

@@SteadfastRC heck yes buddy!! I'm glad you liked and shared it!

thank you sir! it all free music from adobe premiere.

This makes me laugh and smile. Thanks for watching and for your years risking life and limb! I always knew it was a dangerous hard job but being up close and in the thick of it, I realize i had no idea. Nothing but respect for you and the men that do and did this everyday.

thanks for the kind words! I can find the names of the units, one is up the clearwater and the other was up the calawah valley on a FS plot.

Thank you kindly for the feedback! I will have to add some credits . I wanna say it was John, does he live in Hawaii?

Im interested in how you stumbled upon my video. You have quite the collection on your channel! I just watched one and loved it. Is this a hobby of yours?

@@chrisrohde7696 you are welcome , John is from pysht . I searched for logging vids within the last week. And you popped up. Try using hashtags in your discription. I think you are allowed 3 like #logging #yarder #thinning. You will have way more views. Yup it’s a hobby now, I used to work in the woods a lot of the vids are from when I was out there everyday. Are you gonna be doing more vids of Mcpherson logging ?

@@DanielBoonesloggingvideos oh wow thanks you read my mind! i was gona ask for tips. I think the processor operator that day was Ron. I have only been to their tower jobs and I guess John usually is doing shovel logging jobs lately. thanks again for the tips! can i pick your brain sometime about ideas for more filming?

John does work on the shovel side, frank and Wayne run the equipment on the tower side

thank ya kindly, gona try and get some more

what a great comment! i appreciate it. haha and good points. but do not be surprised if someone finds something to criticize your plausible point that they cant all survive.

it was crowded at times to say the least.

for whom?!

educate me! where is/was that?

They fare pretty well. It Will leave a scar but the trees get their bark scraped off in an unmanaged forest by trees falling from natural forces and still can survive. It does increase chances of getting disease. If it were devastating to the tree then that would be lost money, its all about the money. This is just my opinion, im not a forester or biologist.

@@chrisrohde7696 you got it…our hardwoods are sensitive to rubs/dings skiddin…all dozer n winch very seldom see a rubber tire that can manage the grades..eastern Ky..Hatfield/Mcoy territory…

@@arborist460 uhg that sounds like work haha, thanks for watching the vid and commenting. i had so much fun making it minus the editing. that was brutal and still not finished but i had to let go haha.

Well, without thinning half of the trees were going to die anyways, so what if a couple get diseased and die after the thinning job? It is not as if those dead dying trees would not fall down and rub bark off the living trees anyways.

@@w8stral gotcha…I just like learning all I can bout different areas and how each does it..

I don't know what save out means. I assume, since I only shot and edited the video, you mean you want me to edit the graphic tree rubbing parts out?

@@chrisrohde7696 well, if yer not the logger, then I'm aiming that at the loggers, they should know better

Thanks for watching and the kind word! I don't know what save out means. I assume, since I only shot and edited the video, you mean you want me to edit the graphic tree rubbing parts out?

@@chrisrohde7696 "save out" means to harvest without damaging either fallen timber or standing timber

Well, economics says otherwise... so...

Good dialog folks! Lets keep it goin! I have no idea whats going on and why they do any of this except at the most basic level. These wood farmers are working magic as far as I can tell. No joke you two, please lets debate this! I am very interested. I am 100% serious, If you guys have time to explain your positions I would be very interested to learn. Its not like I am being flooded with comments to respond to. I am genuinely interested to know why tree lengths matter in a thinning operation or if they don't. I did not even know this is what thinning was. I thought it was a selective harvest. Or maybe I'm confusing pre-commercial thinning with normal thinning. Honestly please, at the least humor me. I am interested in this and I think it might help others understand that have the same question.
