We Had A Blast In Vermont ‼️

Added: 2026-05-13

[00:00:01]45 minutes till showtime, guys. It is raining out here in Vermont. We're set up here at the East Made booth and uh we uh got a bunch of firewood chuck and we filled that trailer up back there. There you go. And uh but today, first off, we want to say happy birthday to a very special person to me, to all of us here at East M. And uh I'll turn you around.

[00:00:28]Happy birthday to the one and only Mr. Mark. How do you feel today?

[00:00:32]>> Thank you. I feel uh I feel young.

[00:00:35]>> Do you?

[00:00:36]>> Yeah.

[00:00:38]>> My wife reminded me I can start asking for the senior discount.

[00:00:42]>> Okay. At Texas Roadhouse.

[00:00:45]>> I don't know what that means yet, but >> yeah.

[00:00:48]>> I haven't tried it, but 56 today.

[00:00:51]>> 56. Oh, you're young yet. You're still young.

[00:00:53]>> Yeah.

[00:00:54]>> Yeah. We got a good spread out here. Uh here's the diesel axis of course and uh got to run it some yesterday and uh Andrew made some longlasting firewood since this is a trend on YouTube for Lily's Farming Firewood.

[00:01:22]Well, me and Jeffrey fired all these motors up to uh make sure they all run and start. This is a 1222. We got a really good spread here. We got plenty of equipment. Got a EVO over there and a 60C.

[00:01:44]All this equipment at this show here is already sold except for the Rapmaster and it's a demo unit. Otherwise, I would just load it up and take it home for myself.

[00:01:56]Uh I want to buy another one.

[00:02:00]Shut this one off.

[00:02:07]So, it's a little chilly and damp out here today, but uh we got everything running, fired up good, make sure it runs.

[00:02:16]This is a 1222 and a 22 28.

[00:02:27]We shut her off. There's this wonderful apex, which you will see more of.

[00:02:36]So new a here.

[00:02:55]My favorite machine. One of them.

[00:02:59]It does not have key start. I still start it by hand. But we got the Ultra Apex 1222 22 28 and I got my favorite over here. It's a 37D special order. Morning Patty.

[00:03:18]>> How are you? You staying warm?

[00:03:19]>> Yes.

[00:03:21]>> We need to get us a fire pit over here, don't we? Get us a fire going.

[00:03:25]>> Morning Will. How are you?

[00:03:27]>> Good morning, everyone.

[00:03:28]>> Jerry, how are you feeling today? 100% buddy. Pretty good. Jeremy, how are you?

[00:03:34]>> How are you?

[00:03:34]>> Good to see y'all.

[00:03:35]>> How are you feeling?

[00:03:36]>> I'm feeling better than I did yesterday.

[00:03:38]>> I swear.

[00:03:39]>> Cuz I laid off on the beer last night.

[00:03:41]>> Oh, did you? I think I drank yours, though.

[00:03:43]>> Did you?

[00:03:45]>> Probably. All right. So, here's uh this is a beach right here. Now, up here up north, they use these long stroke uh machines. That's a 36 in stroke. You can see how long that is. how long the box wedge is, how long the pullback arm is, and you got these big oversized uh log lifts here, which uh you know, doesn't come standard. It's special order. So, you got log lift on both sides here. But aside from that, everything runs, you know, pretty much normal at my 24D.

[00:04:26]It's got a bigger bigger uh cylinder.

[00:04:29]So, got double log lifts.

[00:04:35]That's pretty cool, ain't it? That is a big ass machine.

[00:04:40]And then talk about a long stroke there.

[00:04:49]Oh, yeah.

[00:05:02]That's something got your standard up and down for your wedge, you know. So that in a special order. So, uh, you got special order that and it's got the stroke limiter there. You can adjust up holes. So you can stop this halfway back. However, you would have to get a shorter pullback arm if that's what you were to do. And it does have a stroke in it.

[00:05:35]And then it's got the auxiliary right here for you to run a conveyor. That' be uh up and down and uh uh forward and reverse on your conveyor. So couplers on this uh line down here.

[00:05:51]Yeah.

[00:05:52]>> So, if you run that hopper like you got at the window, >> you go ahead and just quick connect. You don't have to plum anything up. Just quick connect them down here. Hook them up to the feed hopper and you guys are ready to rock.

[00:06:06]>> All right. So, Mark, that is a special order there. So, I showed them everything, but uh the auxiliary there, but that's a special order, I guess. So, that's a long machine. and and you got the new light package there as well. So, that's definitely something to consider buying when you order order a new one.

[00:06:31]So, anyway, all right, guys. So, uh yesterday Jay got to run the um 60C. He blocked up some wood. So, I got a little footage of that yesterday. So, uh uh you'll enjoy watching him uh cut up some some blocks there with the 60C. So, enjoy that little clip of the video and I'll be back with you in a minute.

[00:07:22]Heat up here.

[00:07:47]Heat up here.

[00:08:20]All right, guys. I hope you enjoyed that. Let me uh show you. We cleaned up all the wood. This guy is going to get all this wood. He supplied all our wood for free. Look at Look at what we got here. Natural Habitat. Mr. Bob Nelson, how are you doing today?

[00:08:34]>> Sunshine.

[00:08:35]>> Morning. Morning. Morning.

[00:08:38]God, I love all these guys so much. Her other manufacturers, man, they're all just just so nice to work with and hang out. And man, we shoot the breeze. Last night, they pulled a trick on me and set up my birthday at Texas Roadhouse. And uh, man, they had the whole damn uh roadhouse roaring with laughter.

[00:09:01]So, but it's all good fun. We got the Evo here. Uh Jay got to run it too yesterday. There's the ultimate machine right there, guys. That is that is what that is what dreams are made of right there.

[00:09:17]And by God, I will have one sooner than later.
