It might as well be..

With all I had to do to get it biult right I should have built it myself.
Here's the thread about all the drama it put me through in it's youth.:http://www.arboristsite.com/firewood-heating-wood-burning-equipment/172858.htm

Is that a home built splitter?

Today's scrounge

This whole load was from 10 rounds. When I got there, I spotted 2 big piles of smaller rounds/ branch wood-- maybe 3 cords worth. I asked the guy "whatcha doing w/ that?" He says " keeping a little for the fire pit, but you can have the rest".

Looks like a good score, Repped ya Steve!

Nice follow-up on the stack. Lookin' good. I'll pass on the lager. I'm more into tequila. But, whatever works for you.

Tequila, now you got my attention! I got a weakness for that stuff!

Those without woodpiles to show pics of shall not judge the grass of those that do.

Gonna move some stacks into the "wood canopy" this week, will get some pics as I move them.

Is that the 11th commandment?

Thanx for reminding me, Steve... I ALMOST forgot that we had some "unfinished business" w/ Shane.

A borrowed Alaskan II Portable mill, attached to a borrowed Husky 181. Why do companies insist on putting twig bars on big saws ? I gotta get a bigger bar for this thing, and a ripping chain. The chisel just dulls too fast on the 300-year old cedar I'm milling for planks ;-)

denis don't forget to rip one thick for your fireplace mantle!

Use as short a bar as you can get away with for more power and better oiling and cheaper chains and faster sharpening etc...

I figured drag from the excess chain would be more of an issue, but the oiling makes sense too. I could do 'em all with this saw and bar, but I'd rather not slab all 4 sides, I want to keep the plank edges as natural as possible. I like the knotty effect on the edges, looks more natural. It is for an outdoor shed, after all.

Went to the saw shop this morning looking for a good used 20" bar, none. And at over a C-note, I'm not buying one for a saw I don't own ! He didn't even have any ripping chain left for either .325 or 3/8, so I'm SOL there too. Can't do nothing with nothing, so I'll do what I've always done, improvise.

Post #674, SierraWoodsman: How do you like the power wheel barrow? And, what brand is it? Crane

I could have soooo used a chainsaw mill set up the other day... I had to try and slab a shelf for a friend of mine freehanded... needless to say, I wish Freehand"Jason" lived closer, he's actually good at it...

A hundred bucks for a 20"?!!!That's a bit more than I would pay,too. File down the depth gauges a little extra and it may help you out.Nice job so far,though.

BIL owns a Woodmizer mill. We can get it "cut to order". Handy asset when you need slabs or beams.
