Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

[Levi of the North]

Probably got enough ash here to survive the winter. Will want to split some extra for buffer, but I've got to cut wood for the neighbour and my grandfather too.

First fire of the season. It will just be an itty bitty one lest I cook us out of here! Manitoba maple or box elder to start.

I’ve been burning for a week, only refill the furnace one time and that’s enough but this is the earliest I’ve ever burned. I think!

But burning season is September till May!
Then comes the little season from June to August

I usually use a couple ounces of gas. Eyebrows usually grow back by first of May.

That's nice.
I have a shed that I built with the intention of one day converting to a little place like that.
What is the little building to the right.
I've had quite a few fires here, last weekend I had a small fire the whole weekend. Tomorrow the high is only 48, same temp it is here right now. Supposed to be in the 30's friday morning.
Got a lot done here today, blue skies and 56 out .

Uncle Mike!!! Don’t you dare butcher the .348!! That gun is GORGEOUS!!!

This guy better tastefully install that peep sight!! Are you gonna start bringing that as your back up rifle? Two 06’s??? Hank used to bring two 30-40’s?? The 95 and that Krag Jorgensen

 

[MechanicMatt]

I’m even thinking about buying my old HOWA back from Rich. That way I bring that same caliber everywhere. But that .35whelen is a sweet backup rifle....

It is amazing that the color of an animals fur can dictate so much … for example:

You will see mostly Black Labs as seeing eye dogs, and occasionally Yellow Labs, but you will never see a Chocolate Lab seeing eye dog, they won't even try to train them!!!

Had no idea but now that you say it i can make the connection.

I finally finished splitting all my white oak. I also got 2 huge buckets split, one white oak and some cherry and ash scraps from the cookie cutting area, and one large wheelbarrow load for this years wood. I also have a couple wire bins that I can burn this yr in the shoulder season that are filled with mainly odds.
Hopefully I can start on next years wood soon. I have a bunch of wood to deliver now which may slow my progress, but I'm going to try to get it done before the new year, it's a good goal anyway.
This load was about 90% locust and the rest is cherry.

That month wait doesn’t come off the warranty does it?

Doesn’t matter. It will have a muffler mod and timing advance as soon as I test run it to make sure everything works.

I just did that 291 for my buddy last week and he got back to me Monday and said it was like a totally different saw and now he regrets not letting me work on it because the warranty wasn’t expired.

No wonder I can’t find any deer their all in the neighbors yard, lol

I’d say the chance of having any issue with a standard carb saw during warranty is pretty low.

I’m excited to try it out. Going to do an advance on my 142 at the same time.

Not sure if I’m watching the Astros or Steelers play tonight. Imagine being able to screw up that much and get paid millions, screw up that much in a factory and you wouldn’t make it past your probationary time.

The little ranch is just a catch all lil shed, keeps the saws, generator, tools, and ooops I burnt the bigger ranch kinda gear,a place to keep the rain off yer head as you watch the bigger fire.

Most chocolate labs I've been around were just stupid dogs...chewing rocks, barking at trees, running headlong into closed doors, etc...

That sounds like me staggering home from a big night at the pub.
