Can't handle that kinda heat yet, 40s predicted here Sun/Mon. I'll likely be trying to get to the woods in shorts and flip flops...

I've itchin for another charity cut at Bob's since I attended one last year. In the mean time, Andy and Sarah have been putting up with me hangin out at their place instead. I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to work Saturday and Sunday. I hoping to start a "new" job on Monday with reduced hours. Then I can attend more of these gatherings. DF

The stool maker
I should be able to come give a hand for a while on Saturday morning. Are we gonna have a very big crew? Not seeing a lot of people posting on the subject. I talked with Adam this last weekend and he thought he would be able to come also.
Fatboy has a few guys together. It's my Saturday to work-trying to get Todd to cover for me.
Hope for the stool maker?

I made a stool today.
I would like to come up tomorrow but the pocket book says otherwise. Have fun and stay safe.

Just a pic dump from my phone from today's cutting at Bob's.
Andydodgegeek cutting one the easy way. Fatness' son AJ on skidloader duty, figuring out the nuances of a new grapple bucket.
Andy, Adam and KDeerPark cutting, a couple locals on the splitters.
Fatness made a nice motor shield for his "bisexual" (goes both ways) splitter.
A couple of the locals splitting some for the guy that had the other stack there. He was looking for wood earlier this winter, and Bob let him have that load in exchange for the one we processed. The boys decided to split what was already cut on that pile, "since we were there". The last of Bob's loads is on the trailer in the background.
A big cookie Kdeerpark brought up, it was salvaged from Lake Superior. You might be able to see some log co marks if my pic is good enough.
He had Andy put his mill to it and make a nice flat side. We're not sure what the wood is, possibly cedar, although I lean toward white oak. Any ideas?
I'll come back in a bit and edit in more info from the computer.

Hey look...No snow!!!
We got 14 full cord processed here in the souf...
No snow and you are in t shirts. Havent gotten quite that warm here yet. Looks like a pretty impressive set up you got going there, Matt. All your equipment or do you hire, rent a processor?

Just oliver1655's log processing trailer and our 2 splitters...
If you got logs and a loader, you can really make some wood in a hurry... If you like to run a saw, it'll give you all ya want in a big hurry...

The guys in WI seriously need one of those things... It would speed up production, and best of all,
No bending over and picking up rounds!!!

Nice pics, Matt. I like that trailer idea. Might just have some parts laying around to make something similar.
I went back and edited in some commentary to my pic post as well.
