as most of you all know I have been laid up for the last 2 months because of the shoulder surgery,,,, trust me,, it has been miserable,,, took 2 weeks for the pain to go away then I had to deal with the pain meds messing up my chrones which I am still not over,,, I have lost about 20 pds because I couldn't hardly eat from the cramping and pain in my gut,,,, so today I felt decent and the weather was good so I got out the 372 to drop 5 trees that either are problem trees or soon will be,, they are on our land,,, yes doc said I could as long as I run the saw left handed which was tough since I am right handed,,,, the biggest tree is elm and the others are cherry,,, should have about 2 cords when I am done splitting,,, used the ole dodge 4 wheel drive to pull them out of the woods,,, I was very impressed the way it pulled them out,,, any who,,, heres a few pics

Glad you were able to get out in the fresh air. Doesn't look like the 372 would have broke a sweat - nice job.

Did your 346 get in trouble so it couldn't come out to play? Seems like those are 346 wheelhouse size?

That's what I call Chainsaw Addiction. Right after shoulder surgery. Had to use a different operating hand. Dropped trees that probably could have stood standing for some time to come. Yep, quite a guy

Hope your healing and recovery goes really well. Take care.

I thought about using it today but figured the 372 would get the job done faster,,, I got 3 of the trees limbed already,,, I used my little echo 310 for that light job,,, going to tackle that big elm in the morn,, there will be over a truck load just in the branches,,, guess I will tackle it with the 346 so I can get it done faster,,,, hope to have a few of the logs bucked too then I can start splitting Monday,,, if everything goes right I will have it all done by next weekend

What did you have done in the shoulder?

 

[Joe Kidd]

Those fat Bi***es sittin in your lap screwed up your shoulder huh?

What did you have done in the shoulder?

had to repair the rotator again,,, it was fixed a year ago and WAS 100%,,,,, and he had to reattached one of the tendons,,, this caused it and it wasn't our fault

heck no,,,, it was from lifting them up and sitting them on the counter top

 

[nmurph]

You better take it easy. It takes about 6 months to get your reattached tendon to about 75% strength and 9-12 months to get to 100%.

Choose your girls more wisely. Try the other end of the spectrum.
