If someone can do it for me or tell me how to, I'd be grateful! In the first pic of the trucks and trees, only the first 2 or 3 trees will come out (L-R).

Give us a date. Now where in eastern Ks is Udall. I live about 20 minutes west of KC

 

[Locust Cutter]

Udall is about 24 miles South of Wichita off of K15 highway, when your headed from Derby/Mulvane to Winfield KS.

That is, indeed, the middle of nowhere... But I'd probably be persuaded to hack a few Elms. It'd make a nice road trip... Set a date... Just shy away from Sept. / Oct.

This one was a dandy, but not sure if it would make a good GTG log. Look at all the imperfections in the trunk.

WoW! That's a heavy @$$ tree there! I've cut some around that size and larger and they can be a workout, especially if you don't have a tractor handy. That's why I love having a spare 20" bar for the MS660. It flat hauls through the hedge. There is a lot of heat in that log section.:msp_w00t:

How about the 7th/8th of Jan? I don't want to miss any good days of Upland Game/Deer season locally (as I missed all of it last year) or ask anyone else to,... That would be after Christmas and New Year's and hopefully clear of any other holidays or whatnot.

Son of a &!#(%!!!!
You all will see me at the GTG...
I'll be the one that looks like bacon....:help:

Matt, you folks west of Springfield have been gettin killed lately.

99 is the hottest we've seen here (80 mile east of SF) so far. But will likely go higher this week.

Can't remember a stretch like this, EVER.:angry2:

Haven't heard from Indian Springs in a while... I hope he didn't just spontaneously combust...
I cut a few trees Saturday, and just pulled the tops out into the open... Probably 1/3 cut time and 2/3 tractor time, and was totally spent by 12:30... But the funny thing is, every day I work in this crap, I last a little bit longer. We'll all be gettin used to it by the time it turns off cold...

I hope Indiansprings is OK. He was on here every day up until a week or so ago?

What is bad, is to get used to working in an air conditioned shop every day. But I wouldn't trade it.:msp_biggrin:

Ya'll be careful out there.

[sawnami]

Anybody want some take-off tow loops? Got a bunch at work that will hit the iron pile soon. I can bring some to the GTG or anyone close can come by the shop.They could be handy for trailer tie down anchors.

You've got 'em. Just let me know how many. Only got about 40 at this time I think that they are powder coated.
