Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

[MustangMike]

Happy Birthday Clint ... Hope to see you post! Miss you and your Avatar! I believe you are the "Father" of the best thread (and one of the longest running) on this site!

I think this means you will be a year older than me for a few months!

It's obviously unethical to cut wood while it's still alive. Properly and humanely dispatch a tree with a firearm before felling! Lol

I'll pick up @Brufab on the way down - we'll have a high old time running wheelbarrows, fixing hammers, and bringing some Remingtons back to life. And of course a fire in Brutus at the end of the day for Miller time.

Jeez H, are you ever going to stop! . How many years supply have you got now? Or are you going to start selling?!

same page, same thot! day in, day out... wb after wb!!! non-stop...

After 3 weeks we finally got our propane boiler and hot water system installed. getting the Massachusetts energy loan paper work approved was a long process. Anything the state does always goes like that. But interest free for 7 years and a $2300 rebate is worth that. The installer had no problems hooking it into our OWB set up. I'll run the OWB one more time to clean it out and shut it down. It was down a month ago because the circulator died after 9+ years. The new energy saving circulator should cut next seasons electric bill down.
I took my wife to the pond where she had her fathers ashes spread. It was where she went with him to fish as a kid. Now it is a bad area due to drug users going there to shoot up etc. I had my .22 magnum pocket revolver on me loaded with self defense rounds with me just to be safe.

My firewood helper got his wish. We came down to the beach wrestling nationals at Carolina Beach. He and a few of his teammates came down and competed. Got to have a break occasionally.

Did you take any out for comparative test drives or were you just kicking tires?

My dad was getting after it with the MS241C I bought him for his birthday.
He loves it. It's a huge leap forward from the 011 he was using before. Thanks @chipper1 for getting me in touch with @Scandy14 to buy the saw from.

Great saw. Cuts waaay above its pay grade.

I was contacted today by a guy I haven't talked to in 4 yrs. I don't think he's ever seen me do any cutting/tree work, but he seems to think I could cut cut down his buddies tree about the same size as that one, I'm not as convinced. I mean, I know I could cut it down, but without damaging anything might be a different story. It's right next to and overhanging the house with large branches, and it's a smaller city lot, so it can't be dropped whole. I'll probably be passing on this one, unless I get someone else involved to climb/rig. It's just a bit over my head lol.

Mini-documentary .
Nice job.
When you dropping the cherry .

When talking about suitable entry-level Peltor hearing protectors, Tactical Sport and Tactical 100 are two of the best contenders. Peltor Tactical Sport seems to be a better option in terms of battery life, volume control, and recovery time. But when it comes to better hearing protection, the Tactical 100 gets the upper hand with its slightly higher NRR.

@pioneerguy600 ,
Thanks man .

I was hoping to mow the lawn before i dropped the cherry, but it wouldn't start yesterday. Didn't have time today, so I'll look at it tomorrow. Always something.
