Man Freehand can cook the paint off a muffler faster than anyone.

Freehand helps most members if they need chain help. :clap:

I'll have to wait and see if I have room for the big vice.

If the bugs are bad there Steve will hook us up.

Everything is about the saws-- what about the logger? Anyone up for some skills competition? I can set up some precision cutting events if anyone is interested. Doesn't matter how fast a saw cuts if you can't handle it on anything but an ol' log on a sawbuck!

Like stacking??? Please expound...
:rock:
 
How many "hey steven's" do you know??? I want an 028 show down!!! Since jerry won't show up with the crafty 3.7...
:msp_wink:

i would show up but youse guys always schedule/reschedule like you was looking at my calendar; even before i know what's on my calendar. when next query comes out concerning when's a good time for the gtg i'll just have to ask yall if my calendar is clear.

after more thought i've figured out that yall must just be skeered of the mighty 3.7; yeah, that's the ticket.

What ya got in mind? I would like to try some axe or hatchet throwing but i dont have nothing to throw but rocks
 
You're welcome to stack lumber for me any time, but what I had in mind was some of the events they have for the "Game of Logging". For the bucking competition, each contestant is given a new chain that has been dulled with a file. We each had 30 minutes to sharpen the chain and timed a down/up cut, using the same saw. The precision bore cut requires you to bore straight through a square cant without going through the side or touching a back board 1/2" behind the cant. Another one is to lay a log on a piece of plywood and cut off a cookie. Idea is to be the one who either cuts all the way through the log or closest to it without cutting the plywood. The big log contest requires you to bore cut a big log from both sides and see how close the cuts match up. The photo showing the dowels is a competition to cut off a cookie without touching any of the dowel rods. No one could do it! Chain saw juggling or saw throwing contest-- if anyone wants to compete, I'll judge it. I won a 365 at the Missouri GOL competition a few years back.

The stacking I was talking about isnt about actually stacking wood. You take a piece of wood 4-5' long stand it up and cut cookies off of it trying to get the cookies to sit still and stack on top of each other. Not as easy as one might think. We did it at tree monkeys gtg, he had a pile of hard maple sticks 4-8" in diameter 4-5' long, he also had some sort of holder for them, cant remember exactly what it was but it would hold the stick standing up and he attatched it with a couple of lag bolts. It was fun I think I got 8 or so "stacked" before my pile fell. Most were having a hard time getting 4 or more. At first when I heard of a stacking competition I though no thanks I aint stacking your wood pile but I enjoyed it.

I'm game for about anything... Cept' maybe the chainsaw juggling... :hmm3grin2orange:
 
I got a great game...

I'll bring an empty trailer and ya'll cut all the rounds to 16", then split and stack on the trailer. The one that cuts and splits the most wood the correct length, without overloading the trailer wins!!!

that sounds like a way fun and cool game!
