not a bad idea, perhaps. make the Scrounging Firewood a Forum... then topics could be Threads.
for example, at my place we have Kitchen Pots & Pans... and then under that we have several categories of frying pans. my fav is the OXO, won the Am's Test Kitchen fry pan shoot out - and no one... is allowed to use it other than for eggs.
that pan is EGGS ONLY!!!
no joke!
no follow!....
no mercy!! ~
have an OXO 6", too. eggs mostly, but other breakfast items, ok too... but oh no!!! eggs only the 10"
yeah, that happens when things are adhered to some times, and other times... no heed or attention is paid to such variances as mite best be covered under Terms of Use!!! that is, in terms of 'rules' application and adherence to Terms of Use... some threads in non-compliance and are ignored, while others clearly in violation seemingly do not get addressed.Wow things got alil crazy around these partshad about 10 pages to catch up on.

Hope everyone has a great Easter and a good scrounge.
a social comment pix says it best, imo....
Yeah it worked out well because he’s only a couple miles off I-75 between Dalton and Resaca
No. One of the attachment points broke off when a tree fell on it. I only keep it on to retain the serial number, it’s not usable without being attached at both ends. It’s the smaller original one anyway.
I know, right? I leave you'se guys for a week without any supervision and y'all try to get the thread locked!
At least @LondonNeil posted some wheelbarrow pics and @Cowboy254 was back in the game to keep the scrounging/ maple syrup/ shooting/ new tyre/ calico cat/ et al thread on topic or it would have been doomsday for sure.
probably too P/R... but someone posted on Neighborhood forum:
"Government wasn't late taking out my tax payment today!!!"

Good catch! I was suppose to crop all that junk out of the picture. The 'wheelbarrow' is on of those crappy plastic ones that crack when I used it for firewood. I put a piece of 3/4" plywood underneath it so I could still use it. Then I scrounged an used metal tub with bad frame and swapped it out with my good frame. Used the plastic pan as a rain cover for my push mower for a while. Now I put it in the bed of my truck and fill it with firewood to show those buying it by the wheel barrow load, how much they are getting.Looks like it works great for those loads.
What's up with the wheelless wheelbarrow. Looks like a nice tub
Is that guy Will part of the Barrow gang ... donning a bulletproof vest?
Man, that's a bummer.
On the stihls I've seen the little lip around the oil fill break off, it's a design flaw as it also holds a lot of chips/sawdust. I get that it helps hold the cap retention string out of all that crud, but without it being there it's easy enough to brush that area off with your hand to get it cleaned off.
I've seen a good number of 357/359 husky break out the bottom AV mount, when that happens you can remove the broken piece of case and weld a little steel onto the dog that uses the dog/it's mounting to become the AV mount. Unfortunately that won't work when they break like yours. Maybe a bracket off where the muffler lower holes mount to the chassis? Then you could run a matching inside dog and throw the little one and the tag in your saw box/bag.
Is that a 460/461, strong saws, that last forever, at least you have a nice outer dog.
Whew!!! Got the remaining information, completed the returns and reviewed with the clients, and e-filed 9 more returns today! Just got done.
Other than printing, sending stuff to clients, and filing info I'm done with the taxes for this year!
You look forward to it coming every year, then you look forward to it ending every year!
Seems to get tougher and tougher, I must be getting older, and the Gov must be screwing things up more year to year!
Thank goodness its over! Back to a normal life! 7 days a week for 2.5 months is enough! (it is never just 9-5). It wears on you, especially the stress of keeping track of all the stuff in process. You almost feel like a babysitter getting a hold of folks that don't get back to you on a timely basis.
On Friday I had an e-mail "I'll send you the rest of the information in a few moments". I called and got the rest of the info from them today. And then they send you stuff that does not make and sense, so you have to call them and sort it out. Fun. Fun, Fun!!!

I don't like doing my own......can't imagine doing for others!
Although the wife assures me once I'm gone someone will be doing them for her.

Not totally firewood related, but I built a rolling saw bench today. Aside from the 4x4 legs, it was all pine I milled. It's just long enough to fit my big saw on it.
After all those billables and all that stress do we see an MS880 reward in your future?
That sounds more like punishmentAfter all those billables and all that stress do we see an MS880 reward in your future?
.Reported!
.I wouldn't want that job Mike, more power to you
.Got ours taken care of, Hope to add a little to it an be able to at least get the concrete in the main portion of the barn. That transitory inflation hasn't helped the price of concrete, sure hope the prices drop real soon.
Look forward to seeing some scrounging pictures soon

I actually have one in my possession that I may get ported as a milling saw.After all those billables and all that stress do we see an MS880 reward in your future?
It is an early 880 that has the aluminum muffler with the spring clamps (like the 088s).
I think it has a 41" 404 bar.
One of the clients I finished up today is promising to get me some Black Locust and Oak logs. I know where the Oak logs came from, and they were beautiful trees (removed to make room for a public playground renovation).
I never count my chickens before they hatch, but it will be nice if it happens.

sI did finally get out to the willow bush for a couple hours today. Had planned on 4 hours but I spent the first 2 hours waiting on tow trucks. Stuck my car getting getting into the pasture. First time I was trying to avoid the deep ruts that have developed in the 10' from ditch to gate and managed to drop right front tire off the end of the tin whistle. then the tow left and I managed to drop the same wheel into one of those ruts.
I pan on hauling gravel to fill those ruts up before I try taking the car in again. Good point of the day was finding the truck back in my driveway from teh auto hospital when I got home.
High wind tomorrow and rain in the evening so another day of stay home.
