West Central Ohio GTG

boda65 · Apr 12, 2013

Anyone interested in a get together in West central/ NW Ohio? I'm roughly halfway between Toledo and Dayton, about 20 miles West of Lima Ohio. 2 1/2 hours from Indy, 1 hour from Fort Wayne IN. The date would be June 8. The idea started when I took down a big (for me) cottonwood tree that threatened my parents house. Not much account for firewood so I was thinking it would be fun to have a GTG.

I've also brought home 5 ash logs and I'm sure I can get more logs.
I know it's relatively short notice but let's see if there is interest and we'll make it happen!!

Bump!

Anyone else? I'm thinking all day Saturday, you're welcome to pitch a tent and we'll cut some more Sunday. I've got enough extension cords that some of you could even have some juice. I've got a 35 ton TSC splitter you are welcome to try out. It might make up your mind to put away the maul, I know mines getting a little rust on it. Just give a shout out if interested.

I would love to help turn that big log into kindling and noodles, but June 8th is a Saturday and I work Saturdays.
Make a Sunday and I will be there.

I may have just picked a bad time of year, there doesn't seem to be much interest in this. If it happens I'm sure we could cut Sunday morning if the big log survives Saturday.

I would be interested. It would give me a chance to grab some Kewpee burgers on the way home too

You can add me to the list, if your starting one. :msp_thumbup: Unless something drastic comes along and I can't make it. You would probably get more response over on the chainsaw forum. But thats up to you Jim. I can think of another member that must not be far from you, MS460Woodchuck is over by Van Wert I believe.

:cheers:

Gregg,

Gregg,

Many thanks Gregg! I had the thread moved and we'll give it another go. Van Wert is only 10 miles away. Post up if interested in this GTG. :chainsaw:

I'm interested. I'll see if I can make it.

Just saw this thread. June 8th works for me unless something comes up. Tentatively count me in.

Modifiedmark · Apr 16, 2013

An hour from Ft Wayne is in my reach, I will mark it on the calendar and see what's going on that weekend.

qbilder · Apr 16, 2013

I'll be in the Chillicothe area around that time frame, visiting family & helping build a cabin. I'll have a few of my saws with me. Would enjoy meeting some of yall if I can make it.

It's a possibility. I know Al Smith lives over that way too. :msp_thumbup:

w8ye · Apr 16, 2013

Put me on your list as I live along rt30 over in the center of the state

FATGUY · Apr 16, 2013

looks like all my buddies are gonna be there :rock:

I'll make sure Moparman and Andyshine know this is going on.

Count me in. Ive been counting the days til the Poulan GTG, this will be a great addition to the Ohio GTGs. Nice time of year too. I will either get the day off or take my work truck with me. The Ohio and Indiana guys are a good bunch, sounds like a real good time to me.

CG Racing · Apr 16, 2013

I'm also interested. I'm putting it on my calendar. Are well mannered leashed dogs welcome? I'd be just staying the day.

I was hoping to report that the big log was now at my place, but due to prolific amounts of rain that will have to hold off a few more days. My friend that will help me get it on the trailer can help Sunday, if it doesn't rain any more. Here is a pic of the 5 ash logs I already have.
