We are building an off-grid home and we need to make room for our array of solar panels. This area is full of hardwoods and Eastern Red Cedar. The best tool for the job we have is our Takeuchi TL130 skid steer (track loader).

I knew I was missing something but my life has taken a VERY VERY significant change as my kidneys went haywire.. I am seventy three Jon and have a multiple bunch of issues.... all said and done, our government says just how we can handle pain. The initial problem started in 2005 and just one problem after another. Well with our being in a one horse town, I can not handle a two hour ride from wasilla to anchorage and back.. I no longer drive to add to this issue..... lets just summarize it!!!! I am now on Hospice fighting for my life. I see so many ways to make your getting clearing done, many ways to make it flow better and it gives me so much pleasure to help others. AND TO ADD TO ALL OF THIS, it can be done for so cheap or even get paid for doing it. I know how to make a pit that can burn stumps up in a short few hours and do it in a hot part of the day with no setting fire to any other trees or hurt the environment around it... my son is doing it here where he gets his firewood... might a figured out that this is a hot one everywhere and yet no danger to the house or woodshed.... okay I am doing it again as its just driving me crazy on ways to build stuff I would so love to tell you more but am having a bad pain attack... called anxiety attack for lack of proper naming this problem.... maybe a little late, might just jot some things down and send in a email later.... sorry... err

That's what the notification button is for. Like Hawaii, it'll be there when I get there. Always interesting when you guys post. Timelapse works. Remember there's no accounting for taste and the public are pretty fickle. Do what you want - that's the key.

Do what you have to do, figured that time would be a factor now that Meg has expanded into new areas of interest and work. I am sure that most people who have followed from the start will sit back patiently and wait, like I do, for the next episode. Love to see how things are going and what you are up to. Keep it up and keep doing a great job. Good luck Meg in your new job. Stay safe guys !! 👍👍👍

Nice lookin cedar log, there. I see a Meg! When I was a janitor at the junior high school I got to drive the bobcat the first week I was there, under the stadiums. They are fun to drive. Take your time, live your life, don't ever think you owe anything to any one. I'll watch what you do when you do it.

I like the shot with the wineberries. You've said once that you want this channel to be real, but I feel that little tricks like these are a legit way to spice up a video. It creates an ambiance. An atmosphere. I see similar channels to yours that do it and have like 500K subscribers and an average viewership of 300K per episode easily. It's what a lot of people like to see.

No idea how long it took you to do all that though 🙂

I was watching your video and was wondering about you having a hard time hooking up that one hydraulic line, if you were to install a shut off valve on it or both, to make it easier to hook up. Hydraulic lines and water lines run the same fittings, so maybe you could install a handle type shut off valve behind the hydraulic fittings. Just a suggestion….,

Few viewers recognize the enormous time consumption of video taping, editing, and publishing for a KZfaq channel. Meg's full-time job will now put the entire burden on YOU, Jon, and it is understood that your time working on the property, coupled with the KZfaq videos, will really be putting you under a strain to publish them. Meg and you will now adapt to the new video scheduling, which cannot be weekly, IMHO. Good luck.
