Not sure if it is true but I heard that larger boars are usually very rank/gamey and therefore inedible.

That big boy you would nut and wait untill about december to butcher. Render him out and make a lot of whole hog sausage. It would put Jimmy Dean's to shame.

Correct me if i am wrong here, the charity cut is going to be on the 13? I was talking with the wife and sounds like i will be able to attend.
I may be able to bring a buddy or 2 if there available to help as well, possibly even a spliter if that would be helpful.

Just got verification from the wife that she doesn't work so I will be there. Don't know if I will be bringing any additional help yet or not.
What time does this kick off?
Splitter?? Should I plan on bringing one if I am able?
Also what is the recommended saw/bar size?

An extra splitter is always welcome if it is not too tough to transport. There is one pile of BIG logs and a lot of smaller random length stuff that was not processor friendly. Normal plan of attack is breakfast at 7AM in Siren and hit the woodpile around 8.

Was in Detroit doing some flood cleanup, when we got hit by 60 to 70 mile an hour winds.


Cleaned this oak up with an MS 261. Left the stuff on the roof for the pros.

[Stihl Livin]

Did you atleast go in the house and clean up the branches that are in through the roof

On another note hope no one was home or got hurt.

 

[Philbert]

That house got hit by a flood, a tree down, and part of a massive power outage (170,000 homes). I told them if they see frogs or locust to prepare for something biblical!

Saw Grizzly Adams 86 at the Minnesota State Fair today. I guess they'll let in anyone who buys a ticket!

Also saw a new STIHL cordless pole saw. Shaft looked pretty heavy duty, and it appeared to have the motor at the saw head, instead of being shaft drive. About $550, without battery or charger?

TORO was also showing a 48 V cordless string trimmer. The rep said they expect to introduce a chainsaw, blower, heads trimmer, etc. in the next year.

Pretty much drove Wisconsin from top to bottom this weekend moving kids into collage. Took off Saturday and moved Damon into school in Milwaukee and made the trip to Duluth to move Dylan in today. It's getting a little quieter around my house.
