I recently purchased a John Deere 5055e tractor and "practicing" operating it by moving around some logs and using it to stack lumber. The uses for the tractor are endless. I've already done more in a day with it than I could do in a week without it. I'm greatly looking forward to using it for my projects. It not only makes things easier and faster, it is fun..it will also make certain projects possible that would borderline be impossible. My lumber is yellow pine, 1x6, rough sawn and green...sawn the day I bought it. I plan on buying a lot more at only $1 per board. I bought this to dry and use as table tops down the road but I would also like to use this lumber as siding and flooring in my future workshop.
More to come, just wanted to get a video put together of the tractor. I'm also using a new computer and editing software so we'll see if there is any improvement...it's a lot faster.
Thank you for watching.
