This picture was over in the firewood thread. One of the dangers of a toy tractor that I had not previously considered.

The easy way to put tire chains on.

Florida gulf coast. Pretty nice, but glad to get back home to the canyon.

I've never been on the gulf side. After the winter we've had I'd be ok with just about anywhere warmer for a few. That gets for boring to me after a while tho too.

Man the auto correct on this site sucks. Yeah I'd love to come out to the pnw. I want to see the tall trees. Cutting them would be better

 

[RandyMac]

I'll be in the trees this weekend, been removing a ''grow'' from a friends tree farm.

I just love them rootwad blowdowns. Cheaper than Planet Fitness I guess. Honey locust, think it is the heaviest wood I have ever cut.

Murder mountain- I'm sure that documentary is a little over dramatic. Some of those idiots, holy ****.

It's less fun when every tree you cut has been blown down on top of each other, twisted together, broken off, and under pressure for months. But yes I'll agree there is some fun to be had in blowdown.

I enjoy the challenge of the isolated big diameter stem and root ball. Interlocking blowdowns not so much. Ron

 

[Skeans]

These are of some stuff we did some time back I hate blow down it’s spooky stuff.

Yep tornado came thru late August. I did blow down from November until March and I didn't even take on the big jobs. I passed on a huge one because I didn't want to be in there forever.

Hard on the equipment too. When it started freezing the balls wouldn't go back and in order to not wreck chains constantly I had to buck them and come back around with the forwarder and pick them up. I've got some good videos too if I'd ever put a YouTube channel together.

I think I may be a little serious for that post, but I usually run 11018 on equipment repair with some preheat and postheat. Unless I know what it is. Too much high strength steel in equipment for me to accidentally undermatch.
