I'm in the same boat. I have a lot of Red Oak down on a friend's ranch that I need to get cleaned up before it gets punky... Should be about 2 cords and change. I really need more Hedge, but there's not enough hot weather left to get it dry enough to burn right in my EPA stove before this season so everything I cut ill be for next year... :angry:



I wouldn't say dumb as we've all been there before in some capacity. Life happens. :censored: I had a car that I was hauling a few weeks ago darn near come forward off of the trailer because I used chains on the front and ratchet tie straps on the back. I knew better but I was in a hurry and it almost cost me a lot more than a new trailer jack handle...:msp_scared:
glad that wasnt any worse for you that could have been bad! a buddy had an old camaro pro stock, he was bracket racing it, he lost it off the trailer somewhere on the will rogers turn pike,tomake a long story short he got it back in one peice, and it ran 8.06 that day :laugh:
 
Evening Gents,looks like we have some cooler weather moving in.:clap: I need to cut about ten more loads of wood before winter gets here. A friend of mine has a lot of hedge and I mean a lot on his farm. I plan on cutting a couple of loads next week and I have a line on some standing dead oak that I didn't get to last year.

Get a smaller truck, it will go faster.

:)
 
Famous last words,I knew I should have tied it down. I have also been guilty of this a couple of times,I was a slow learner. A $600 new stove would really ruin a mans day,not to mention having to tell wifey about it.:msp_scared:



Someone lost his matress and box springs on I-29 in north K.C. some time ago.

I collected his matress in the right lane. Last I seen, the box springs were on the shoulder.


Tie the crap down, at least for my benefit!

I hope he had to sleep on the floor.
 
Wife and I went to the antique steam tractor show today and had a great time. Yep, she enjoys these things too.:rock: But she still won't run a saw. Anyway, walking out to the truck, this thing kept trying to climb up my leg. Friendly little thing, so I invited it home. Got it home, gave it a bath and a quick physical and found out it was a 60cc little girl. Craftsman/Poulan no less. Needless to say I was very pleased.View attachment 314209View attachment 314210
 
Bees

I just got back from a bee tree. Largest I've ever seen. Took out about 12 feet of honey and comb. The 346 is covered with honey.


Someone had pushed the tree over in Bella Vista to build a house. Did they get a surprise when it hit the ground and busted up. Ran out of gas and had to put some STIHL gas in the 346. It didn't like it, :(.....


Don't know if I got the queen, or for sure if I can get her in another hive. So basically a fun trip for 20 pounds of honey. (Which will be distributed over the other hives at my shop. It would have been some good genetics because she (the queen) managed a large hive.)

Tarry on.
 
I went to Republic today to.Lots of old iron there.Wife went with me also.She even had a good time.She liked the Farmall Cubs, well now it might be easer to get one.On I 44 on the way home a small pick up passed us with a washing machine in the back, it was floating around my wife spotted it. I had told her about Cobys deal with the stove.

Steve,

Don't know if you've had much experience with the old Poulans - if you haven't you're in for a real treat. I really like the older Poulans, I have a 2800 that is just plain fun to run. I liked it so much I picked up a 3400 and 3700 too. They are really great saws.
 
You fellas have slowed down!!
The neighbor that brought me that basket case Stihl 460 came and picked up his saw last night...
While I had it apart, I ground a set of timing #'s that Wiggs gave me into the jug...
After he made a test cut with it, I don't think I could have slapped the smile off his face, had I tried... Hope it don't blow up...:msp_wink:
 
For those of you that have noticed my "account hold". I am extremely unhappy with the "powers at large" about that. I paid my dues Sep. 5.

They don't seem to care about their bread and butter.

I have never seen anyone else get that treatment.

I am about done with them.

:(

Are you being serious or just stirring the :spam::spam:

I think it's about all they can do to keep the site crashing right now...
The x made a mess...
 
On another note, your 757 is running fantastic Dan...
Ran 2 more tanks through it yesterday...
The extra transfer time is what it needed...
I like it more every time I run it... :rock:

This has been an issue for weeks before the 'crash'. I have never been to Bangladesh. However I may know a bangladeshihacker. (his picture looks familiar anyhow.)

I sure like the felling dogs on a 757 over a 372.

I need some west coast dogs on the 372. No more of the east coast puppies.

I got a set of the bigguns' on the 385 I'll trade you for the smaller set...
The big suckers just tend to get in my way..
