Teenagers wow! My 16 year old and I are at the urgent care getting an x-ray on her hand. Some girl was talking smack about my 14 yr old daughter so Tarin decided she was a boxer for a split second. She must have smacked her pretty good from the looks of her hand. These teenage girls are a little crazier than I remember from back when I was in high school.

Not to offend if I do I hope you can move on . Good for her standing up for family.

Its a shame when physical action is required. However, there are times when it is called for. Most of the time that's all the bully understands. I applaud your daughter for drawing a line in the sand and then acting when the line was crossed. Perhaps a little training is called for so she wont hurt her hand the next time. :clap:
 
Taking a pic by myself to get size and perspective is tough. I took this pic to get the width in there. The one with my hand, I can play an octave plus two notes, was to show the size of the limbs I could reach, there are much bigger limbs by almost twice. I'll bring my tape with me next time.
 
Well I guess I should attach pics. Lol

Has anyone tried any free hand slabbing lately? I'm thinking of trying some on one of these smaller trees 12-18", I was trying to remember all the details. Square both ends, then chalk a line, cut down a butt line too get yourself a squares reference, then proceed to ripping? Is that it or am I missing a step or two?

I would, except I'm on call at work then. :( :mad:
 
Charity Cut VII update.
Still at the last site we were at. Still wood by the road but heard the landowner wants the wood by the house he's building to be gone. 2 piles of logs as I remember. We'll concentrate on those and the road to finish up this site.
Going to check out another new site on the 20th for Charity Cut VIII. Hopefully it works out.
I can't say this enough, though. Thanks guys. :bowdown: :chainsaw:

Looks like might be a smallish Charity Cut. That's OK. Went yesterday to check another site, will need to go back when the leaves are down to see a little better. 375 tops on the ground for 1 year, so good wood. Just need to see it again to see how hard its going to be. The county boys said they're getting ready to bring wood to the recycle center, just don't know when and another landowner close by heard about us and wants us to cut at his place, just don't where his place is yet.
