Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

[kingOFgEEEks]

Well, I just had a fun new year's eve interlude.....they moved a flock the other side of the farm the other day so I went out in the dark and looked for "white things". Scrounged up three cluckeraptors...the official catchers always miss some...

Chicken dinner?

Chicken dinner?

Not this time, just adding to my personal flock. Sometimes when I get a lot of them some will go in the freezer. I usually do that in the sumer though when I have a surplus of garden veggies to give to them, put a few more pounds on them first.

Happy New Years Everyone!!!

Mountain, looks like things have reversed, and you are getting some winter this year while we have none!

Hey Mike ... I've seen your weather reports back there - 60 degrees!! ... while we get cold and some snow. The kids sure liked our white Christmas.
I'm told by those in the emergency preparedness loop that all the past climate models based on history can no longer be relied upon. We're in uncharted territory that has the *pros reaching.

Scroungers - Thanks for all the 2015 laughs, photos and good information, and here's to a very successful 2016 !
May your Woodshed be overflowing and your home always be warm and full of happiness.
CHEERS!

Happy New Year guys! Looks like we are finally getting some real winter weather here soon. Which means cold mud instead of warm mud! HAHAHAHAHAHA!

Happy 2016 now back on topic...

Ok that's probably the last on topic post for me for 2016.

Nomad, what a great helper you got there! Also looks like some Walnut in that wood pile, how does that stuff burn for you? I hear it produces some unusual colors when it burns.

Mountain, I concluded a few years ago that Mother Nature was going through a change of life!

 

[nomad_archer]

I have burned quite a bit of black walnut and it makes some nice heat. I have no idea about what colors it makes since I do not have glass on my stove. So I load it up and close the door.

Somewhere.
On the Internet.
I believe.
There exists a thread.
That discusses firewood.
Or, perhaps,
A man can dream of such a place . . .

Good idea. I'm trying to focus and the newest posts help but that image in my head of svk bringing the padded outhouse seat back in the cabin and then using it for a pillow will just not leave my head, might say it has stained my imagination. LOL

BTW, happy new year to the good folks on AS.

My wife called for me from upstairs. No reply. Then she checked the garage. Nobody there. So she texted me..."where did you disappear to now?"

I texted her back. "Couldn't resist!"

 

[dancan]

Sure am glad you put up that pic mn , the wife seen it and wanted to know what is was about , I told her and said "See , I'm not the only one ."

LOL

That's a great saw! I have the 034 super which is pretty much the same and it has great power to weight ratio. Congratulations! How much?

i love the first 2 i bought and had to have at least 1 more. just was told about a clutch bearing upgrade for these saws. not sure if it fits the 034 super. been looking for a 034 super but this saw appeared today.
price ? more than $300,less than $400. worth every penny.
