I currently share a building with our local PD. Not many of them, including the chief would be ok with confiscations of our guns. But there are a few that would arrest their mother if told to do so. Messed up world we live in.

That’s what I’m afraid of.

Funny how it worked.

The more money i made going up the ladder in the world of welding the less happy i was.

That old saying we all know is kinda right.

Take the leap if the new job is secure. If your not happy GET OUT! I promise it will make you feel better

Thanks
 
If registered guns become an issue then we’ve all got problems. I’d like to see gun confiscation happen considering the vast majority of police and military would be on our side.

Like my flag says, come and take it.
I agree, but those with them will most likely be the hope anyone would have if that did happen.
That being said, I read a story where people took the gold of those who had oppressed them and then walked away :reading:.
 
Good guess buddy!!:numberone: View attachment 849992


Congrats on the new job! Hope it works out well for you! Been contemplating a similar change.
:happy: glad I got something right today lol.
I figured it would be close, I was gonna say 3.75, but I wasn't sure on the height and the angle of the roof.
You made it easier than a lot of the pictures with a pile of rounds in a field asking the same question :oops:.

Sounds like you still want to do it. If you do it in good conscious whether it seems to be a good thing or bad, it will all work out in the end.

Are they hiring, and would I have to wear a mask :surprised3:.
 
3 days but only 2.5 hours each, and I have the big willow pretty much licked. It has 2 main stems. , the big one will be around 30". finished cutting/stcking the brush off of the smaller stem (about 24") and had it all ready to buck. Off to the truck to get the 362 with 20" bar. WTF!! How can one load up a 441 with 32" bar and not recognize it is the wrong saw!! Ah well, I was pushing my limit by then anyway and the bucking will be a good way to start the next work session. Looks like it will go around 2 cord.

Off to Jim's small locust scrounge in the morning. I'll pick up a small load of logs but they are only 5 to 8" diameter then go around with Jim to mark the trees he wants out near the house. His wife seems to getting her way more and more. I'm down to a very selective cutting.
 
63 degrees on its way to a cloudy 70 degrees.

My plan is to work up about a cord and a quarter of aspen today from my neighbors yard. Looks like I’m going to have to wheelbarrow all of it out to the driveway so that will extend the project by a bit but it’s a gravel trail and it’s downhill so just will take time.

Although I do have a couple other trees that are standing dead along the road that I could drop as well and save those wheelbarrow trees for another day. We’ll see.
 
I really have a strong dislike for wheelbarrows. However I was at a friend's last week and used his which looks like a regular wheelbarrow but with 2 wheels on the front. Wouldn't be much good on a goat path but it was the cat's PJs to wheel through the yard.

Those are awesome for moving stuff across lawns/smooth paths etc.
 
What scares me is the rate we are allowing students and others to be brainwashed through our education system and the internet (the results are bias), especially when the internet has replaced encyclopedias.

The change is happening very rapidly, and the Supreme court has not properly backed the 2nd Amendment.

Lol, I was just curious what you guys would guess, I’m usually way off when I guess, lol.

Thanks Brett, guess that’s the problem I don’t feel right about leaving after I told them I’d stick around after they agreed to some changes:confused:.

The media bias is bad, but the teacher indoctrination is a much more glaring problem IMO.

On the flip side, a lot of people “see the light” when they start paying taxes. And there are a lot of people who know they are being lied to but don’t publicly admit it as they don’t owlish to be called names.

PICS of the wheelbarrow loads or it didn't happen. :laughing:
 
"Man up" and use a real wheelbarrow!!! Balance is key, but a one wheel will go so many places a 2 wheel will not!

If you practice, you will get good with it!

Since you're being so dramatic, I'll use a real wheelbarrow when you use a real saw ;).
My two wheeled unit will go thru any opening that's 36" wide, as long as the ground isn't to un-level, if it is I probably wouldn't want to use a wheelbarrow anyway and would use my arborist cart and I'd haul logs, rounds or blocks if needed.
What works for one doesn't work for everyone:cheers:.

Me too, but I've had my two wheeled unit for around 18yrs and it's great. I have had to make a few repairs, but it's done a lot of work and if it wasn't for the Kubota it would do a lot more, I like that 4 wheeled Japanese wheelbarrow the best :clap:.
