Morning neighbors.
Five hours in the sack is about all we can manage before our bladder wakes us up. Two cups of java and a couple smokes and we are going to get another three or so.
Paper not here yet. Platte river came way up judging by where I-29 cross south of here.
Edit: Official figure is 1.8" of rainfall.

Will the pole saw be getting a lot of use or is it mainly for home?
For home use, I have a $100 add on saw that fits onto my weed eater shaft with a 10" bar that does fairly well. If you need the power head as well, then $179
http://www.lowes.com/pd_109895-8688...L=?Ns=p_product_qty_sales_dollar|1&facetInfo=
Then the professional series:
Husqvarna has a 24.5cc, 16.1lbs, with a telescopic reach of 156.3" for around $560
Echo has a 28.1cc, 19.2lbs, with a telescopic reach of 158" for around $660
Stihl has a 36.3.1cc, 17.2lbs, with a telescopic reach of 138" for around $650
The Husky is the lightest, & is about $100 less. For the smaller limbs one would normally prune, 24.1cc should work fine.

Locust Cutter
Sawing for Sanity
It was built by Dave Neiger and Randy cut the base IIRC, but I cant get the carb to stay right for more than about 10-15 min. The power-band seemed to be suited more for cookie cutting than for stumping, which is why I bought it. If he can get it where I'd like it then I'll keep it, otherwise I'll sell it and put that towards a Terry Landrum 395xp...

My C70 arrived today, haven't had a chance to check it out yet. It is missing some parts and is locked up, but it looks good for a fifty + year old saw. The carter ndr carb might be a problem though. It's well worth what I gave for it for parts alone.

Going cutting in the morning with Bob, Rob, Stan and Ed where we had the last Charity Cut. Highway boys were nice enough to gather up all the scattered stuff and put it in a big pile. Of course I dont plan on staying much past 10 or 11. Got to spend the rest of the weekend painting around the house.

Darick and I had a busy day. Its starting to take shape though. 3 or 4 more hours in the morning and we should be able to finish it up. More photos tomorrow! The weirdest thing happened while I was running the 046 peeling it down though. The sawdust from this tree(walnut) seemed to cause a reaction with the skin on my arms. I broke out in a sunburn like rash. Lasted for a few hours and went away. Never had that happen before. Anybody heard of this?

Haven't been on here much this week. I've been dog sitting and haven't had much time for saws this week. Still have the little Craftsman 1.9 sitting on my bench in pieces. Not sure if I'll mess with it much more or just toss it in a box. Thinking about doing some clean-up soon to get rid of some of my less desirable carcasses. Took the wife out to play pool tonight. Going to the shop in the morning.
Jim: We need to find out just what parts from the recip. saws interchange. And, if you can swap on a Tilly HL.

Morning all, just had a little shower here, on my second cup and waiting for the caffeine to kick in.
Carl I was having the same thought last night about the HL carbs. I have one of the big recips buried out in the shed, need to check out the air filter setup.
