I'm into 17 acres of oak tops right now. But I'll never turn down a good mulberry score.
May have a new saw in the shed soon to replace the 111.
What's up James.
I was thinking of you last night :).
Stopped at the gas station and there was a pack of Groms that drove by.
Hope all is well.
 
Hey Philbert, thought you might get a chuckle out of this, from a tree service. Attempted sq file?
also blew through 2- 1/8 and 2 -3/16 borazon wheels in a month- back to vitrified ( stone if you will) for me. cost too much vs output .

Nice loads bud.
Did you get the free trampoline, it was right close to that red pine on the other side of the expressway lol.
Still not up to your Olympic stacking level but I'm trying.

I could pick up several free trampolines per week if I wanted them. There's a reason they are free and there's also a reason insurance charges an extra premium to have them. So I'm good, thanks. ;)
 
How's that new camera going?
I was afraid someone would remember!!! Haven't tried downloading to the 'puter yet. In stead of a simple patch cord, it now takes a thumb drive to copy them and put that into the 'puter to download them. Whateveer happed to simplicity? I did take a couple yesterday when I was cuitting in the new willow bush.
 
I took 2 red oaks apart 2 years ago one of which was hit by lightning. I could tell no difference between the 2 so maybe you job won't be hard after all.
Just waring on cooler weather then I'll find out if it's easy or nasty. Planning in grabbing a few x cut chains to try out in it.
Lol!. Maybe we need to start a fight... Guns? No....ammo?..no.... politicians?......no..... vaccines? Hmmmm......I know.... What's best orange, or creamsicle?
You just had to stir the turds ah? Lol. Orange, but I wouldn't say no to Creamsicle either if it was cheap enough.
 
What a beautiful site.
You better go post those in that thread "trees you've cut on the other channel, things are getting heavy over there :omg:.
Do you need to adjust your signature :D.
It’s pretty nice area, saw 2 bobcat kittens last week, first for me, pretty cool.
Saw that, probably should, has to be better than what’s been posted recently :rolleyes:
 
Had a rig this morning, when I finished I went back in the shop to drop my gear at my tool box, saw one of the guys I get wood off of. Kinda gave me a kick in the shorts or motivational speech if you will. Looks like another tree dropped at his place and its time to start getting it out. He's a good sport, and knows I work for my uncle on my days off, but looks like painting the truck will have to be pushed off. Told him I'd get down and start loading next week before work. I'm 99% sure he has it chucked up already so just need to noodle the big splits and toss them in the truck. Gotta talk to my other uncle and see if I can get the dump trailer off him. (You know since we "co own" it.) Actually looking forward to getting back in the swing of wood again. Been too long as I got a full years load in the shed early this year. Pics to come next week.

Sounds like a great deal. I like that timeshare trailer deal, think I'm going to start selling those myself . Speaking of trailers, the jack for the 25' I'm building just came, it almost made it out of the box :surprised3:. A nice set of zinc coated chains are scheduled to arrive tomorrow(wish I could reschedule that so the guys didn't have to be out on Sunday), and my hitch is supposed to be here by Tuesday. Now if I can get motivated to do something on it in this heat :baba:.
 
What new saw do you have your eyes on James?

Probable something orange. :laughing:
Someone up state wants my 111s. He's offered a few choices. Mastermind 2188, 2095, 2100 husky, jonsereds 90, and a few others. Not sure what to go with. I'd like a more modern big saw.
