I don't understand the virality of this video. Or is this just such a foreign concept to people?
Cut-to-length logging isn't new, and I haven't seen anything particularly interesting or different in this video, but I have seen this video posted on Facebook a dozen or so times by people with their minds blown. http://www.ponsse.com/products/harvesters http://www.deere.com/en_US/products/equipment/harvesters/harvesters.page? http://www.komatsuforest.com/default.aspx?id=1453&productId=&rootID=1475 http://timberpro.com/photos.html |

However it looks like it would be limited to small trees |

However it looks like it would be limited to small trees Most of the old growth is gone. Most lumber and paper wood is planted and harvested when the trees are mature enough and are limited (by their age) to a certain size, so a machine like that works perfectly for them. Obviously it wouldn't work for a 200-year-old white pine, but there aren't many of those left. |

Quoted:
If you keep your eyes peeled, you'll those thing all over the place, like along roadway projects, clearing new lots for development. There's also a grinder that just grinds to chips the whole tree from top to bottom in a few seconds. I know someone who owns a couple of those big grinders. They are used for junk wood like pallets, cottonwoods, or branches. Good wood is never wasted like that, around here. |

I think he's talking about one of these Oh, I thought he meant the type that recovers the chips. |

Me too. ![]() I'd wager the short fat troll to her right is her mother and she would look like her in just a few years. You'd have to use her up pretty quickly and then dump her. |
