What happens here
Starting Day 2, the narrator notes the project is proving to be a 'quite the chore,' with only 8.5 hours of work yielding minimal visible progress. He explains that his initial approach of dropping all trees first and then cleaning up was inefficient. He plans to now use a Gehl skid steer with a grapple attachment to more efficiently gather and move large piles of brush and logs to the wood chipper. He also uses a Husqvarna chainsaw for larger cuts.
Goal: Improve efficiency of land clearing using heavy machinery.
