Well I'm still a tree ID dumbass. Anyone use and can recommend a tree ID app? Finally bought a smoker, wanted one for years. Used it twice so far and over smoked my meats 
Figured it's time to dust off my chainsaw and try to harvest wood chunks myself. That 7910 above may have triggered my chainsaw addiction again.

Nice collection. I am a fan of the same groups of motors. Currently running a '69 9.5hp and an '83 35hp. I had a few projects before but there's no money in them unless you can get the motors super cheap or free. I give 75 for a 4 hp once and after 125 in parts and about 4 hours, I got 250 for it. Still I dig the johnnyrudes

Years ago I had a place do up a 350 4 bolt short block for the boat that I bought. The previous owner left water in the block which cracked the block and heads. They repaired the heads by stitching the head gasket surface. The block was junk. I had about 10 hours on it when I knew something just wasn't right. It was feeling a bit sluggish. I pulled the heads off to find a wrist pin had walked out and grooved the cylinder wall really bad. The connecting rod on that cylinder was bent. The place did provide me with a new rebuilt 4 bolt short block and gasket set free of charge.

My 4yr old grandson says, "Grandpa, I don't have any wooden blocks to play with at home."
Well, I'm about to fix that, starting with these,
Well, they are too big and there's not enough of them! So, it was time to saw them in half,
There, that's a start! Next to sand them and build a nice wooden box to hold them all.

This started out as just another picture of a bear ... till we requested the video!
Harvest one and you get two more (and none of them can be hunted this year!).
Hard to keep up with the proliferation of deer eaters! Second year in a row seeing more bear than deer, and I don't know how do get it to change!
Just not many people want to go bear hunting!

I still crack up every time that vid plays through my head.Getter done,
Yup , it’s priceless
Heck, we're just starting to see bear population go up again recently. If it continues I'll start getting my bear tag again. Was pretty much a waste of money unless you headed up state.
If you get a NY license, I'm right across the border (Hancock NY) is where my property is. 50 Wooded Mountain top acres, 2 miles in off the grid.
I'm grateful we live on Brewster Hill and we are not subject to flooding. They got over 10" of rain a few miles from here, and it is not done yet. Wave after wave of downpours.
There is a lot of flooding just to the East (in CT) and to the South (in Westchester).
It should stop later in the week.

If I had any real amount of vacation I'd take you up on that. Just managed to work my rotation at work to get the first week of rifle (deer) season off and only use 3 days of vacation up. (I get 5 vacation days and 3 personal/sick days.)

Sean, you ever get time off
We have permission to Hunt the neighboring properties too
I’ve been pushing him for years to shoot the damn bears, he is FINALLY on board!!
Two in 7 years barely put a dent in what’s up there
I let one walk by my stand as it was a tougher shot, it was headed right for my dad. He didn’t shoot, it came by me again about 150yrd out in thick (I missed) and then it trotted past Mike.
That year was the year I think he finally got convinced we need to start putting them in check
Mine and his

Just bought a Dolmar 6400, hopefully they still sell the BBK. Should go great with my 6100 I think. Only need small chunks for the smoker though but I'll leave that out when I tell my wife about the new sawGetter done,
Sean I started gettin a bear tag a few years ago when the first bear in York co was shot 2 miles from my place. Your welcome to come and hunt deer or anything else anytime. Deer are out of control over this way.
Morning men. Back to the salt mine today! Lol
thanks Steve, I appreciate that. See how this fall goes for me.
I believe the seafoam was just dissolving all the varnish in the carb. The bowl looks like that the day before when I took it apart, and I cleaned that fully clean and it looked the same the next day from all of the other crud.Still raining here. Did the Sea Foam eat the rubber parts? I noticed that I did the 5600 page entry. Now if I only had a pointed finger to celebrate that feat.There we go.
Long time no see hope you’ve been well, my friend.Well I'm still a tree ID dumbass. Anyone use and can recommend a tree ID app? Finally bought a smoker, wanted one for years. Used it twice so far and over smoked my meats

Thank you, and I definitely know how that goes. This is a labor of love and there’s a very small window in the year to sell motors if you did want to sell them. Most of the motors on this rack came to me cheap or free. But much like saws, unless it's a real clean specimen and only needs minor work (or you have parts motors to get free parts), there is no profit in repairing them.
A couple years ago any running motor would command a lot of money. Now people have gotten picky again and only want modern stuff.
Are these bears of the anterless type that NY allows you to hunt.
Is bear meat any good to eat? I have a bear permit this year along with a doe permit.
