Roberts, who always wanted to be a logger, started out in the brush graduating to machinery when he was just 20.

MILT PATERSON’S a fourth generation logger, who began his career in 1970. “I was dragging a gunny sack full of oak wedges and steel plates for dad when I was 12 years old, swamping out around those big trees for him,” he smiled. He started logging after the service in ‘69, and ran his first feller buncher 25 years ago. Paterson went to work “tem - porarily” for Bruer 20 years ago, he laughed. He said the John Deere 959 with a JD FR24B hot saw, is a “...pretty good machine. They’ve come a long ways. This has 3,000 hours on it, over three years. It’s been good.” He lives in Eagle Point, living in a trailer near the job site and commuting back home every week or two.

kEN COOPER processes wood and clears the chute beneath Bruer’s Diamond tower on a Link-Belt 290 with Waratah 623C. His 290 has 2,000 hours on it since last April. Prior to the Waratah’s he’d run a stroke delimber for nine years, but prefers the 623C. “The best I’ve done was 40 loads a day in good sized wood,” Cooper said, “28-30 inch all the time.” He started logging with his dad and grandpa who owned Stout Creek Logging, and is a third generation log - ger. He’s been with Bruer the past 13 years. USED PARTS FOR
