Those spars were used as rigging points to take out the other eight trees. Didn't want the rigging sliding down the spar under the load.

That'll be me again too, shortly.  This is a temporary gig and I'm going to hate going home in this one respect only.

Technically, it's kB, not kb.&nbsp; A <font color="red">B</font>yte is made up of 8 <font color="blue">b</font>its.&nbsp; 350kB is 2800kb.

Hi glens How much longer you got at "speed?? Dont ya have broadband-asdl-isdn where home is?..My excuse Veerryy rural.
Kind regards Derek..
 
I'm a rural resident too (woods, not farm).&nbsp; I'd been given the old server from my ISP when they got bought out and was able to leave it sitting on the T1 for several years, all for the price of a dialup account.&nbsp; That was sweet because I could fetch these large images to there, resize them remotely, and fetch them home over the phone line in much less time than it would take to get them directly.&nbsp; Every so often I would drive over to the machine room I had a key for and transfer my large stuff off the box directly onto my personal one.&nbsp; I've been in a real hurt these past several months since they closed down that location...&nbsp; The old server sits idle in my back room now.

In a few more days I'll be a prisoner of the slow but in all other respects superior environment of home once again.

Thanks for asking.

Glen

what chain do you use there derek?i doubt if anyone here is cutting anything similar.ive come up that way and been astounded by the hardness.one dead limb and i was sharpening:rolleyes:
 
chains

It's our IRONBARK here thats hard, In my old firewood days, I would stumble upon wood the early timber cutters left behind..
ie they took 10 ft of it and left....so dry,so hard (in fact it is now purple not red any more),very nearly calls for tungston..

I wouldent dare comment on saw sharpining in this fourm(Mr Martin might be reading) But I seem to get by,I use 404. on 088
"super chisel"in green & softwoods and mico chisel in the dry...
soooooo easy to sharpen. AS well as 250 tons of fire wood per season, I used to cut posts for a fellow(200 per day av) Put a 12 '' bar on one of the 88s an oregon "ripping" chain straight out of the box ond hang on. Logs were round enough to get 8-12 posts 6'7 each. Now I find out about different chains- powerporting etc, do I want thing to go any faster??

Climbing saw chain again, straight out of the box Pretty rough here in the bush

More damm power lines..

to show off more big gums, note i'm sitting on 020 066 for the big limbs use to stuff around with the 044 but... Mabey that one needs some mods?
 
Cold? Freezing? That happens around here every couple of years. It's mostly intense heat.

I'm gonna TD this tree this sat or next. But, because it's a school, they just had to have this lightning struck limb removed TODAY!
