Dropped a few maples, alder and birch. Tough work moving them around as you can see...
You gonna be alright lol.
Nice setup.
Yeah, no kidding. Pace yourself...
That's sweet, so I can call to get advice when I'm ready to step up my YouTube game
.Guy I have done a bit of landscaping and mowing work for has a big one he uses for doing commercials, it's sweet. I sold a little eu2000i generator to a company who filmed as well, they had a large drone and a boom off their Mercedes SUV, they drove about 45mins out of route to buy the generator
.
Yeah for sure
.You better be careful too, all that whipping that fishing pole around
.
It works well, While I like my 70cc saws I can see myself needing to go to a ported 60 down the rd with the easy start, but for know I can still start a 90cc without the decomp if needed
. I just want to be realistic for the future, it doesn't take but one event to stop a guy from even being able to run a saw at all . I just snagged up a real nice 357 for another member, the guy I got it from had a pacemaker installed and cannot run it anymore
, life comes at you fast sometimes!
The ethanol free I run is 93(iirc), but if they had 89 I'd run it even in my ported saws without worry.
That does sound nasty
. I had a 254 one time they guy ran dirty motor oil thru for bar oil , it was disgusting to say the least, especially coming from a guy who doesn't like to get dirty
.I get it for sure, gotta do what works for you
.The smell of maxima is quite pleasant
, Klotz is great and smells great too.Maybe you could get some of these for the house
. Or you could spend the money on the real thing.
Two tired operators. One slightly tired teen. Three dull saws. Nearly a cord of scrounged firewood. And most importantly, one completely brushed roadway.
Another neighbor donated 5 aspen logs to my collection. We had two other partial loads from what we cut along the roadway.
Rocked the 5020 chain. I think I’ll let the local guy sharpen this since he only charges $5
The 130 pitched the chain about 7/8 of the way through the project. It was getting dull anyhow so I grabbed the 5020 to finish up the larger cuts.

One of these days we might actually get a fireplace. There are little pockets of firewood dotted all over the property. Strategic prepping - scatter it everywhere so if the zombie hordes attack they won't be able to find it all.
For those in the northern hemisphere who may not be aware, April 25th is one of - if not the most - sacred days of the year in Australia and New Zealand. Anzac Day commemorates the 1915 landing of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps troops on the Gallipoli Peninsula in Turkey. Poorly planned and executed, the whole operation was a complete fiasco and all it achieved was the deaths of thousands of Kiwis, Aussies and Poms over a number of months of trench warfare and the pointless charges of men armed with rifles and bayonets straight into machine gun fire. The only part that was a success was the stealthy evacuation which was achieved without anyone else getting killed.
Though Federation in Australia occurred in 1901, Anzac Day is regarded by many as the birth of the nation proper. The traditional veterans' march was cancelled this year but individual recognition of the day occurred at dawn in driveways and the Last Post audible throughout the town.
This was one of the more moving illustrations I saw.
Lest we forget.

More from today's haul.
Good to see some lumber photos. Was it solid enough after a year? No Powder Post Beetles?
Make Spruce, not war ✌
It's been six months. Not ideal, but they will be fine. Emerald ash borer got to them, but most of the damage was in the tops.
In MD all of the outdoors businesses have been working all along. Three of my neighbors got new roofs in the past two weeks. The day after the essential personnel order was givin, I had to go to the grocery store and bank. I saw a county sheriff and asked if I could mow my clinic? The clinic is definitely essential. He said I could mow all of my lawns. Just don’t initiate contact. If the client came out keep my distance, leave the window open on the truck, and tell them to drop the check on the seat. So, it’s been pretty much business as usual, just using common sense, and extra care.Soon as I heard that I thought of you
Lots of landscapers were out today, everyone needs to bring in some cash!
Cemetery scrounge. Grabbed what I could and I’ll be back tomorrow for more. No idea what it is, a little stringy when I split it.
