That has a 50 / 50 chance of being acceptable. :msp_smile:

Had a real nice meal yesterday at the Low Gap Cafe.

How many 8 footers you figure you'll net out of those Steve??

Three trees DBH 18", 12" and 10" and a guess of 75 down to 50 ft tall.

A new chain on my saws means there is an 90% chance of metal in the tree. Or 10% chance of me getting it in the dirt and rocks.

If they aren't full o holes or rotten, I say we use em'!
Holler when they're ready to come down, and I can get a trailer there...

For me, it's the audience.......

I have a decent oak to take out of the sky. Sounds like a Thursday afternoon job, eh Missourians?

Why you always gotta do the fun stuff during the week Dan...??

We have when weekend is bored, and Sat.

Made a deal with a local gentleman. He has 2 Husqvarna riders and a big lawn vacuum that he wants to get back running. He supplies the parts needed, I supply the labor to bring them back up to speed. I get a chainsaw for payment. :msp_biggrin: An Echo CS670. Finished the lawn vac and took it back to him. Cleaned the carb, changed the oil. And gave the whole thing a wash job. Tackled the mowers next. Both had v-twin engines. First one had a gummed up carb. Cleaned the carb, flushed out the fuel tank and lines, charged up the battery. Presto! Nice runner. Second one had a bad battery. Changed out the battery with the other rider, primed it, cranked it. Presto! Second runner. Took him a list of stuff to do to them to finish bringing them up to snuff. New plugs, oil and air filters and oil for both and a new battery. Just waiting on parts now to finish up. Really nice mowers too.

My lawnmower is 'sick' too.

 

[RVALUE]

Wait, I just re-read the post. It said 'gentleman'.

My lawnmower is 'sick' too.

What's wrong with it?

 

[RVALUE]

It dumps bad gas out of the air intake of the carburetor.







Solution: Stop putting bad gas in the tank?

sounds like they need another week or two of growing before they're 'ripe'.

 

[RVALUE]

Another thing wrong with the lawnmower is the carburetor is too close to the ground for a cripple guy to work on. And it's dark outside.

 

[workshop]

If it has a float type carb on it (most do) sounds like either the float is sinking or dirt under the float needle seat. My guess would be the latter. Usually easy fix.

 

[RVALUE]

Yes the seat is very dirty, due to sitting for a long time.

Need a rag.

As for the tree, they are worried that I don't have proper help.

I told them I can come up with the mouthiest crew on the planet. How hard could one medium tree be? I was just trying to find a time when some motel dwellers and adventure seekers were game.




If we had 3 - 4 volunteers we could possibly handle it. Realistically take a couple hours.







Or I could do it wrong myself.

 

[workshop]

Yeah, that's the bad thing about working on riders. Everything is below knee high and my legs don't like that either. Saws are at bench level. Plus their just cool to work on.
