Oklahoma,AR,MO,KS,TX GTG (Next GTG 08/27/2016 ) Fort Scott, KS

[RVALUE]

Check the hole in the tank? For a split? Remember it not only leaks, but also it doesn't run on its own. Runs on wd40. (yes I had some actual wd40 not my walmart preference..... )

I suppose sitting in the heat could expand the fuel through a leak, into that cavity.

Stephen could make it a mini GTG too...
Rogersville is only an hour from me...

Ok Stephen what do you say.

I think Matt was referring to the fuel line.

Ok Stephen what do you say.

Sounds good, what are we talking about? A GTG before the wood cutting in september?

 

[moody]

So today was my birthday and I got to tinker on a couple saws. No real excitement though. Did anything cool happen elsewhere?

 

[workshop]

Ok Stephen what do you say.

Sorry guys, If you're referring to me. Not used to being called Stephen, even though it is my given name. Used to Steve. The only person that ever called me Stephen was my mother. And only when I was in trouble, which was often.:msp_rolleyes: A mini-GTG would be great with me. The more the better. I had planned on a 1 day thing for this but the gentleman who actually is in charge of Hearts to Hearth thought if we could get a camping spot available close by, it would be easier on everybody that has to drive a long ways, which I agree with. If we can get a place to camp would that work better for everyone? Come in on Friday afternoon/evening, cut and play all day Saturday, relax Saturday evening then cut some more Sunday morning? Any way around it I'm looking forward to meeting up with you guys again and running some saws. Let me know what y'all think.

Freaking cool is an understatement. But, I am speechless so "Freaking cool" will have to work. Very very impressive

+1. I can't get my shirts to keep up with my work. Hedge, I guess I need more cotton.

Brought in a truckload of red elm yesterday. The sawyer that dropped the old tree said it had been dead for five years. Regardless, the big rounds were still wet in the center and will need at least two months to dry out. I used a 32" bar to cross-cut the bottom ends. Then I had to noodle cut them in half to get them on board the tailgate. Otherwise, my back was in jeopardy. I might have sweated off five pounds of blubber.

Red elm makes fabulous firewood! Another truckload is waiting there.

I love that red elm,but I haven't been able to get any the last two years. I would drive fifty miles to cut red elm.

The county is widening the road in front of our house. I asked the tree service clearing the trees across the road if the wood was spoken for. He said "first come first served". It's hard to pass up wood bucked and ready to split less than 1/4 mile from your house. By the time I got off work all of the oak was gone but I got several loads of red elm, hackberry, and walnut. Wood's wood when it's that close to the house. :msp_wink:

i hear you on the sweat! My clothes looked like I had jumped into the pool with them on. :msp_unsure:
