Conquistador3 , isn't palm sap corrosive on any magnesium parts ?

Yes, and that's why a plastic saw is perfect for the job .

Went to Boss Excavating to sign that waiver. Got to the front door and there was a sign on the front door that said "GUNS ALLOWED HERE".

I knew at that point it was gonna be a good day.

Was met at the front desk by 2 beautiful young women. Even better. Drove over to the site and got my truck close enough to the pile for a pic. You can only see the front half of the pile in the pic next to my truck. In the pic with the 3 big trunks, the holes that are rotted are TWO FEET in diameter. When I walked up to those big trunks they came up to my nose. I'm glad I got the 395. I think the biggest bar I can put on a 395 without voiding warranty is 42", and the biggest I got is 32". I didnt think I would ever need a 42" bar but I didnt plan on 10 tons of 48" OAK falling into my lap. From what I can see without un-burying stuff there are FIVE big red oak trunks in there, and they make the other big stuff in that pile look small.

ahm gonna needz helps.

Google says 6 hours drive time via the turn pike . Probly less then 5 running with traffic.

Not for kids or the type that don't like foul language

 

[chipper1]

No, we don't do that sissy stop/start rubbish here. Cowgirl can even change the battery in these.

That's funny.
Guy I know went to Germany to pick out his new BMW, he got a ticket for leaving it running at the dry cleaners, all that after running 160mph down the autobahn, the irony.

I hope you know that us continental type folks have to keep on top of two scales , it's kinda like speaking two languages lol

 

[MechanicMatt]

Yeah it's tough for you northerners, ya'll get kilometers a hour in your cars, Celsius for temps, short summers and wicked awful winters.

It's about that from me too.
I'm pretty sure I can keep them within an inch, even without a stick, so they will all be 1-2".
Excuse the dull chain, and the videography(my son ).

 

[MechanicMatt]

Is it really 46*F up there Dancan?? I'm very Jelous. It's been bitterly cold here for over a week. Not getting any warmer anytime soon either...

On a serious note, forecast wind chill tonight is between-35 and -40! Got home from work and my boys had already carried about half a facecord up beside the door. Good boys and better wife for making them work. Stay warm fellas!

You can see where the new fence is too LOL.
That hurts just looking at those numbers .

Yes. Yes you do. Two beautiful receptionists and you take photos of the logs instead. I'm not sure what kind of help is required but you, Sir, need it.

 

[James Miller]

Probly more like 6 here. At 46 I'd be thinking about shorts again.

Good thing they dont do that here. When it's cold I leave the truck run all day. I dont shut it off till I get home from running everywhere, sometimes 6hrs run time.

I would have looked like a serious creeper taking pics of the office girls

High of 15* tomorrow with 25-35mph sustained winds with 40mph gusts. The wind chill is going to "nope not going outside". I'm going to park my happy butt by the wood stove all day and drink coffee. 46* would be shorts and t-shirt weather. The other day it was 22* in the afternoon and that was a kinda warm when I went outside.

No trailer. Just an f150 with a tired 302 that I go half's with my brother to keep on the road so we have a truck to use.
