Another milling job! Unfortunately, I have a 076 Stihl now for working in the saw mill.

These have been blown down by a storm. The roots are from usual spruces.

Nice picks. and somehow reassuring to see a John Deere in Deutschland.

 

[traktorist2222]

John Deere is market leader in Germany! Most tractors sold in my home country are made by JD. Most tractors are developed and built in Mannheim and Bruchsal, just the big 7030s and 8030s are imported from US.

Some news from Germany!

First my chainsaw-made elephant:

I carved it by chainsaw and later just polished it and oiled it.

 

[traktorist2222]

Last weekend I felled a Larch that got dry. The first 4 meters are carving wood, the rest is fire wood.

First load on IH tractor:

Our car trailer got full:

Hope you like the PIX.

lOVE THE MILLING.

Those are farm land access roads and biking/walking trails as well. Pretty much every road/path/trail is paved in Germany, we would use them to avoid Stau's or traffic jams (100-500 vehicles ) on the Autobahn. You would not believe how smooth they are either and clean. I can bet that these guys cutting wood will leave the road/trail in better condition than when they arrived to cut wood. Its all pride ( and a huge fine if caught leaving bits of wood etc... on it. Great pictures, love to see Germany country-side.

Doc

bt your land access, hiking trails, etc, are smoother than half the roads in the USA

Post # 190 is that a license plate on that tractor?

OMG

 

[Grateful11]

Please keep those pictures coming! If I ever make to Germany I'd like to look
you guys up, the heck with all that sightseeing stuff. I like the Elephant.

I did'nt read the whole thread, but I noticed you have license plates on you tractor?

I'm guessing you must have to have plates on tractors in Germany. Thats pretty wild.

 

[traktorist2222]

Yep, that's a licence plate. Don't you need that in US for tractors? We have to register every vehicle that uses roads (cars, tractors, trucks, motor cycles ...) and pay taxes and insurance for it. Just vehicles used by farmers and in forestry are tax-free, because of that they have a green licence plate instead of a black one...

 

[traktorist2222]

Some news ... my uncle and I cut some fire wood.
