So this is my Honda four-wheeler. It's a 420cc machine. I've had it for about three years now
0:17
I really like it a lot just for its engineering, but the real benefit is the fact that I've kind
0:23
of outfitted it to be a rolling gas-powered four-wheel drive toolbox in a sense. Especially
0:30
when I'm out here looking after fences and making sure the water is working for cattle
0:36
and setting some dividing poly wire between the between the different sections of the pasture. So
0:42
let's come on over and I'll take a look. You can take a look at some of the things I've done. This
0:49
machine didn't come with all the accessories you see here. Kolpin makes this back rack super
0:55
helpful. It's quite deep so it can hold a lot of stuff. Gas and oil for the chainsaws, some fencing
1:04
tools, spare batteries for the cordless tools I have on here too and I'll show you guys that in
1:12
a minute. One thing down here, I got an extension to this trailer hitch to get it out kind of even
1:21
with the back rack. That was very helpful too. I have a couple of trailers I pull with that. And
1:26
then chainsaw holder, super handy. It's a great way to hold the saw because you never know when
1:38
you're gonna need a saw around here. A fallen tree or something that needs to be cleaned up
1:44
maybe a little bit of firewood cutting. Although I use a bigger saw for real firewood cutting. Moose
1:51
Utility makes this. This is quite beefy. I kind of wish that back one was as heavy as this. It's
1:57
heavy enough but this is really solid. It's the same company that makes the plow blade that I put
2:01
on the front. As far as stuff I carry, you've seen me using this, just a pruning chainsaw. It's
2:10
great for those times when you're feeding the chipper or you're cutting firewood too and you
2:15
want to just limb some of the branches off the trunk. This is actually a PVC shear. It's meant
2:27
for cutting PVC conduit, water pipe, packs, stuff like that. But I'll show you in a minute, it's also
2:35
a terrific pruning tool. Not for around here so much but back at the house where you have to do
2:39
careful pruning. It's quite quite useful for that. This is Army Surplus ammunition box. They make
2:51
great toolboxes. Not only are they really strong and they don't cost too much, they got a waterproof
2:56
gasket on them. This is where I keep all kinds of things like power sharp. This actually lets you
3:05
sharpen a chainsaw, a dull chainsaw in about 20 seconds or so. I'll show you about that later
3:11
sometime. Some bungee cords. I keep some drawings here as well because I need to know where to put
3:20
the various fence wires that define the pasture and keep the cattle into smaller sections. I found
3:31
that the only way to lay out things accurately as far as size of chunks go is on Google Earth. So
3:38
each one of these points is where I'm going to, it was where I have installed one strand of electric
3:45
polywire to form kind of pie-shaped segments. Water is here and water is up there so the pie
3:54
shaped segments all lead to the water so I don't have to have a whole bunch of water supply everywhere
4:00
I should have got one of these four wheelers a long time ago because it's really boosted my
4:09
productivity. If you got any questions about this setup, I've got a great trailer that I
4:15
pull behind it too. I can cover that in another video but just super useful. I hope you like taking a look at it
