GTG at Tree Monkey's DEC. 6 Augusta, WI

[Hedgerow]

So I stopped down to Scott's. Chris said he has plenty of winter bar oil to use. He will have gas mixed. Is everyone ok with 32:1? Anyone who wants parts or chain they can make sure to order in anything if we know this week. Some examples is a hd2 is $25, 72 DL rs chain is $18.72. Chris said that is there regular price and they might be able to do better.

I'll take 2 loops of 72dl .050..
And looks like Levi will be missing a couple ball games to attend...
He can do the work of 2 old guys...
Oh, and we might have some summer sausage in tow...

 

[Hedgerow]

Is there gonna be any race classes....??

Race?


You probably consider a funeral procession an opportunity to race!

 

[Stihl Livin]

It's going to be one big race to see how much wood we can get cut and split before dark

 

[RVALUE]

Did we miss the shortest day of the year by about 2 weeks?

Stihl Living, It took me a while to figure out your avatar, Funny as heck, but how true.

It's better when they're super hot, but that's not the case often.


On a seperate note, I once was waiting for fuel behind a hot shotter with a big tank and 40 foot float, while in line I ran out of fuel. I casually asked him for a tow, so when he pulled out, he pulled me to the pump........ worked out great. Thank goodness these new rigs start when they' ve been run out.

I feel bad for Sarah.

You shouldn't... He's easy to cook for.

 

[Stihl Livin]

Ya but he seems needy.

 

[andydodgegeek]

I'm not needy. Just as long as I get everything I want.

The wood will be roughly 12"-18" cut to 16"-18" long. Red oak.

If the wood is 12-18" in diameter, then it is on like donkey kong.

I will be operating a splitter. I could use a helper. 2 people on my splitter can do 3 times the amount of work as one person.

I think I can handle being your helper.

 

[sam-tip]

What size splits are you shooting for? Boiler size 6 to 8 inch? Or small stove size. 3 to 4 inch.

I am wondering the same thing opcorn:

 

[TBrown]

Both I think. So once we set up then it will be decided what guys split to what size. Basicly two separate piles. Or we won't be picky and just split.

I was thinking most of the splitters would work best with two guys.

12" Red Oak????
Oh yeah....
I'll try the 6 way out and see if it can do anything but make shrapnel...

 

[Homelite410]

Will there be a warm spot for the hydro's to spend the night?

 

[sam-tip]

The super split splitters can rock with three people each. Maybe 5 for both. Up to 4 cord an hour combined with motivated crew running both splitters. Biggest problem is getting enough good wood and getting rid of the splits

One person delivering wood one running each splitter) and a helper / wood chucker for each.

That would be awesome...
I know the 22 gpm pump can be a bear on a 13 hp motor to crank once you hit single digits..

I want to see how it works. I may need to commission one for my splitter.
