Always learning, but your son is so much further along than most people could ever dream of. Congratulations!!

This is one of those videos where I could care less about the logs, and how they are doing what they are doing. Instead, watching a man teach his son, and his son being so respectful and willing to learn is what this is all about. This is amazing and more of what the world needs. Awesome video!

this video is great it took me back to they days when i was 15 years old and the anxiety i had when i first moved big trailers

“Now hold on a second” 😝. Love watching you two work. Reminds me of my late father. 👍

I enjoyed the lesson on the trailer breakaway chains. Haha, it gave me a new slogan! “ Sag it, Don’t drag it” 😂👍

You should be scared.

I recommend crossing your safety chains on the trailer when hooking them to the truck. This method provides a cradle for the tongue to fall in should the trailer dislodge from the ball.

One tip for jack, to stop from doing all the little corrections while driving, distance your line of sight, look further down the road or at the horizon. Biggest help when I learned to drive tractor trailer. It’ll stop you from swaying the wheel back and forth, over all great job!!!

scared of what??

Also with heavy loads you should “cross” the trailer safety chains so if the hitch was to come undone the chains would hold the trailer tongue so that it might not dig into pavement or dirt.

Well done jack!! I thing two small logs underneath the logs could give you the space to slide straps or chains underneath, for unloading at Home.

Good work Jack 🎯💯

Your teaching him the way I like to teach. Think about it. You make a decision, and give it a go. If you need to adjust you'll know as you start to pull it out. I'll also give suggestions only. Try with caution, get experience, then trust your experiences and instinct's. Hands on is the very best teacher, but slow. Rigging the log from the bottom also allows you to pick it up some so the log front is not plowing into the ground letting it slide. I pull it out then shorten the chain to get closer to lift it some. I skid with my Kubota L3800. I have a draw bar for the 3 point I designed that allows me to wrap the end on the draw bar then just drop the chain in a hook that's part of the draw bar. With tension it locks like the hook on the chain to the chain. I front pull it clear form where it was cut then back up where the draw bar is almost over the end of the log re-rig the chain short to the top of the log, then to the draw bar, lift the draw bar just enough so the end of the log is off the ground and in 4 wheel 1st gear I can safely pull a log like the one on your trailer through the wood, fields and anywhere I want with minimal ground damage as it is now sliding and following. We all have to find out what works for us. I do this all alone so if I get hurt in the woods I could be out of luck. I make my own luck by being wise not smart. Smart can get you injured or killed. Wise is experience, instinct and caution.

Check the load a few miles down the road. Your son picks up quick.

What a good young man you have there sir...

Good job Jack!

Jack, @ 9:55, careful, that's how you loose teeth, getting that close to a binder. Use a cheater pipe, and stay out of it's way also.

Learning life long skills and confidence.

If you don’t mind me asking what did two logs like that cost you ??

Good job

Geez thought this one was going to be about politics. Thank God it isn't that's enough to put anyone in a mental home.

Well done for both of you! Great training Cody.

Makes me miss my dad. Greetings from Kennewick

"I can't really say if it's a beautiful saw log because I haven't had experience with beautiful saw logs" -- such a sign of immense maturity, being able to appreciate your relative position of knowledge. Extremely impressive Mr. Jack.

Can't wait to see what you do with these logs!

Want a tip from the east coast? Throw a fence post (roller) under the log as it coming off the trailer, it’ll keep it from digging in, another at the back as she drops. Keep it off the ground, cleaner/dryer, you’ll pick up easier and you’ll get your choker off easier.

Well done Jack

I have blue stain tongue and groove ceilings in my main ranch home and barn apartment. I was told that the blue stain was caused by the beetle kill and that the blue color is fungus.

It's hard to watch others figure it out when you already have the answer but you held back very well, good fathering and well done to your boy.

You don't drive a trailer..you pull it.

Nice work Jack, And the ol guy helping you out is kind of rare these days.A guy can have many things but having an awesome dad is a treasure beyond compare. Thank's Mr. W its a great time working with and watching our son's growing up, I have 3 son's myself aged 33 31 and 23 theres never a dull moment! Have a good one sir!

Twisting the safety chains to shorten them weakens the chain and is a DOT violation. You should shorten your chains to the appropriate length for the tow vehicle. I didn't notice if they were crossed under the tongue and hitch, but the should be, as well as always having a pin in the coupler on the trailer. I'm not trying to be a hero, but it is valuable knowledge for Jack

This might have been the best video you have posted 👍

The baby looks like its mother!

I had just got my license two weeks before I drove my first trailer. I was driving a f350 duly pulling a 25ft flatbed with a 8500lb backhoe. Ahh back in the good old days l... that was 1yr ago.

Jack, it may not seem like it now cherish the time you spend with your father my fondest memories was the many rides in a truck with mine even if your "not into" the things he does you will one day be working and will recall these teachings when you need them the most and will smile as you remember who taught them be grateful for a young father for mine was older many viewers who have lost their father come to understand how much they miss them and wish they could have spent more time with them when they was alive i grew up as a servant a willing servant as a male but with mixed parts your fortunate to have a great father

Lmao 🤣 you told your boy I was waiting for you to tell me what to do. YES BEST PART OF THE VIDEO

I love the way you interact with this boy and I love the way he responds to you. I'd love to redo a lot of things based on your example.

Seems like just yesterday that Jack was just a small kid.. time sure does fly. Well done Jack

A 91 dodge in good condition is suoer expensive and its the 12 valve not 24 24 started in 98.5

Where is the cheater pipe for the binders? Snaps them tight and saves knuckles unsnapping.

The kid should know more than he does by now. I know, Cody’s trying to un-shelter him and he doesn’t have long if the kid goes off to college and doesn’t want to come back to the farm.

Father and son are wonderful examples of passing on knowledge and skills to maintain traditions and basic values. Congratulations to both, especially love and patience of dad, and willing spirit and confidence of Jack. It is a delight to see your projects coming together. Bless you and those you love. DJ in Knoxville TN

The father son videos are some of my favorites! Jack will always have those times in his heart, and someday he will be a better man because of it!

great video

JACK, My Stepdad taught me to place my left foot touching the the outside of the truck(by the emergency brake) and imagine my foot was reaching through and touching the centerline. Also keep glancing at the outside left rear view and keeping the left trailer wheel a couple of inches from the centerline of the road. Also do the same on the right side trailer wheel to outer line. Once you find the right edge of the road find a spot on the hood or wipers to line up with the right line in front of the truck (while you are sitting relaxed) Use these in combination and you will know exactly where your truck and trailer are at all time. Which will avoid fear. Also don’t hold the steering wheel so tight it turns your knuckles white. Hope this helps you. Ask your dad to help explain these ideas.

Wow! Jack is becoming a man, guess I haven't tuned in in awhile. Good looking young man!

That was highly entertaining!

The safety chain trick is something that I do. I see so many trailers going down the road and dragging the chains with sparks coming off them. Great tip for everyone.

I'm taking Young AP to get his learner's permit today.

Man, the music at the end was loud.

good looking young man!

Wow your subs are going up fast

Where is Mr. Lockandload?

Its insane how much used trucks go for especially the pre emissions diesel trucks in good shape, especially low miles and no rust. People will pay top dollar for them.

This fella doesnt wear a hairpiece??

I never knew a safety officer to get his hands dirty... Truer words have not been spoken. Love how he is teaching Jack. You can only truly learn by doing. The patience he has reminds me of Job. I wish America would return to this.

You need the old hood from the other place for sliding the logs out.

Get a binder tightening bar or use a pipe to get leverage when binding the binder, nice job Jack

Needs a mans jacket.

This really took me back. I taught 5 kids how to drive, and I remember that feeling. You are so good w/ Jack.

Good job Jack! Keep learning from those that have gone before you! Your Dad’s doing a good job helping you learn!

@11:15 Cody, "How does it feel?" Jack, "Heavy. It feels very heavy" When it stops feeling that way… you've got a problem.

Exactly the type of fathering every young man needs, and that I wish I had gotten.

Nice work Jack!

Now I know why you named your title “I’m Scared “. Teaching Jack how to do something new which he did quite well! 👍

Nice “backhoe tractor!”

Jack is very lucky to have you as a father to teach him so much.

At 6:09, the gentleman in the loader is talking to the other guy and one of them says “ is that for Siwek”. I’m wondering if they are talking about Siwek lumber in Minneapolis?

It woulda been funny to back up really fast and slam on the brakes. Not that it would work and it would probably be hard on equipment and that would be the complete wrong way to do it and unsafe. But good job Jack!

Great job Jack. Doing something for the first time on your own is always scary. Even with Dad there to advise it still means that you are making the decisions.

Great learning experience for him.. Can't wait to subscribe to your son's channel when that time comes!!

1st gen Cummins is a 12 Valve, 1998 2nd gen Cummins is when they came out with the 24valve, you’re in Oregon. I’m from Cali and I could definitely help you find a 2nd Cummins for less then 10k in your area, if you’re willing to spend up to 12k then you could find a really nice 2nd gen. If you want to spend between 10k and 20k then we can find you a nice 3rd gen. No more locking up for 4x4 drive. Just switch it and go. Strait axle Cummins will out last any Ford or Chevy. Especially with the way you take care of things. Let me know. I can definitely help you find something in your area. Instead of spending 30k on a 1st gen you could spend that on 4th gen 6.7 Cummins. Thats currently what I have and have ZERO issues with it. But mine is a manual. The automatic definitely are a lot more finicky if you tune them and make them quicker. But for you being that you would probably leave it stock you wouldn’t have problems with the automatic. We could find you a manual of any generation,1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th gen. Just get back to me if you’d like some help!!!

I still remember the first time my uncle had me drive the old diesel ford out of the rock quarry with two yards of gravel in the dump trailer. These things, teaching young men to do good hard work, should never be lost so much as they have in our society.

this guy is amazing fear monger millionaire

Easy to see he is a smart good hearted young man. Great job pops.

I have been watching your channel for 2 years now and never gets old, for some reason they are relaxing and makes someone believe is there with you at your beautiful homestead. Keep up the good work!

Hey what broke on the trailer last time Cody?

Did you ever think using a waterwheel to generate power from the river? Looks like you've got great flow and that should drive a waterwheel very easily. You would also have 24/7 auxiliary power where wind and sun may not be present all the time. Many videos on AM-posts to watch and learn.

Pine Beetle carry a fungus that actually kills the trees.

That safety officer comment was classic

Beautiful. Great Job Jack!

Love the lessons on hauling heavy loads. Great stuff! Not to be a safety sally but ratchet binders are much safer than break over binders. But again great stuff that every man should learn.

I work with a lot of guys like jack. I love how you let him go. He’s seen you do it before. He has it in his gut. He knows the equipment. Great job jack.

This brings back so many memories of my father teaching me to drive, then teaching me how to tow our boat. Then teaching me how to launch said boat and captain it safely. These lessons I took seriously and my skills show it. People would compliment me on how well I was able to back up a 25 foot boat down the ramp in seconds while men twice as old would take 10 to 15 minutes adjusting their approach.

What was the deal with the crooked wheel on the trailer the last time you moved logs?

Now I’m missing my dad watching me grow and learn.

the safety officer comment had me dying

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM TRACTOR

I’m so glad my 10yr old introduced me to your channel!!

Dumb idea on my part, putting a couple pieces of telephone pole cross ways to the log on the ground so it rides on them as it comes off of the trailer??

Ya know... I think Jack needs more beef on them bones. He's an alright kid though, but I figured with the kinda man Cody is, I figured Jack'd know more things about 4X4 by now and how to throw chains over logs and such. Hey, don't take this as hate, consider it to be helpful criticism.

Nice job Jr. You've got the best instructor. I had my son trouble shoot and repair his furnace today. He did well also, made the repair.

How much did it cost for the two logs? How much wood did it yield? Thanks.

Blue Staining in pine can also be signs of inbeded iron. most big sawmills wont cut it because it runs the risk of damaging the blade and slowing down production. could be nothing but keep that in mind/ have an extra blade on hand if you have any sort of time frame on the timber framing project

Good job Jack. Good job papa!!!

Where's your helper pipe for your binders?

Great job Jack! I wish I could have had those experiences with my dad in north Germany. God bless.

I LOVE THIS SHOW REMIND ME OF MY DAD AND ME BRINGS TEARS
