I climbed trees as a kid, but would never do it at my age .More power to you Jim ... especially at our age!
I never did climb, was afraid of heights.

Yepper. I have that from when I had my '55 chevy panel truck. I think all the screws were clutch head on that.Clutch head . Used on GM windows and other places like headlamp doors . Pain in the butt to use
showed me photos of a momma beer
With that description, all we can say for certain is that it's antlerless.Import? Or domestic? Or home brew?
A guy that has cameras out behind our farm next door showed me photos of a momma beer and two cubs behind my house and a 4, 6 and 12 point buck in that same area, plus two does.

Were they Zig-Zagging? Grease gun at the ready!With that description, all we can say for certain is that it's antlerless.
Id mill threw it. Copper is pretty soft, may dull the chain a bit though.I just had to put a B+C on it and run it today! The bar was only 24", never ran it with one that short before ... she feels very strong (both crosscut and ripping).
Last year my tree guy gave me some logs for milling ... said there was just some surface metal I could remove!!! The small red oak is 36" and over 8' long, the bigger one is just over 7' long.
Today, the 066 did some partial crosscuts and then ripping so I could wedge the pieces up to get a look at the wiring! I thought there was steel in there with it, but I guess it was just a weathered copper ground wire.
What do you guys think, will my chain survive milling through copper? Or should I just keep going till I remove it?
Climbing up and down logs and hitting the wedges with a 16lb hammer is not as easy as it used to be, but I got it done!
When I renovated the bathroom on our new old house, actually tore it off and put on a new one I got into the space above the small room next to it to run new line upstairs. Sitting on a rafter was a giant ball of electrical tape about the size of a softball and 6 or 7 wires going in and coming out. Not ideal.pffffffffff why go to all of that trouble when you can do this!! Twist and tape baby!
In case you're actually wondering yes this is in my house and yes it is live, no I did not do it. So dude named Albert probably did it in the 50s while smoking an unfiltered Camel. I am currently getting all outlets on it rewired, hopefully will be able to turn it off tonight.

At 71 I didn't know if I could still do it. I never climbed for a living. It all started when I was around 50 and needed to drop trees in front of the farm house. I guess that I have been lucky by not having a fear of heights. I used to climb a tree at my childhood home when I was around 10 years old. I would go all the way up to the top and sit up there for a long time. My mother would come out and yell at me to come down from up there.More power to you Jim ... especially at our age!

I fixed it. Good catch.Import? Or domestic? Or home brew?
None of the above. They were sitting on feed piles the guy put out.Were they Zig-Zagging? Grease gun at the ready!
Haha, that was me too when I was young. Power Co. came and trimmed neighbors tree in the front yard running along the power lines. My Mom found me sitting on the uppermost branch stumps only feet from the power lines. A storm was coming and the tree was swaying. Man did I get a whooping.At 71 I didn't know if I could still do it. I never climbed for a living. It all started when I was around 50 and needed to drop trees in front of the farm house.

I hate sharpening the 36" chains any more than I have to, so I will try to continue with my "dental surgery" to remove the offending wire.Id mill threw it. Copper is pretty soft, may dull the chain a bit though.
For air, II rn Schedule 40 Pvc water pipe and fittings change to NPT at the ends. I put a T and a drop enging in a ball valve below each chuck, to catch water and drain it. If you have a nice drier ahead, you don't need that in theory.Nice air runs
I personally wouldn’t use pvc for compressed air . The pipe manufacturers don’t recommend it and here it’s a code violation .For air, II rn Schedule 40 Pvc water pipe and fittings change to NPT at the ends.

Could really go for those right now fried up in the cast iron skillet on the camp stove! We’re without power or running water since 27 September with earliest possible availability 07 October. It’s bad but not as horrible as our neighbors just to the north of us in WNC. Praying for everyone.Nice catch, James! Here's a couple good size Browns from today's trip. It was 26° this morning, nice and sunny.

Not a good idea. PVC is too brittle, and compressed air works like a spring. I had an "I told you so" moment at work. We had PVC installed for water at one of my buildings, and it got converted to air. I said it was a bad idea, argued and argued, finally gave up. When it finally let go, nobody was in the building, but one of the shards busted a window in a truck. The guys I argued with cleaned up the mess, but never did admit that I was right.For air, II rn Schedule 40 Pvc water pipe and fittings change to NPT at the ends.

Hope everything is OK my friend.Had one of the shottiest days at work in a long time
Got crap news from the Dr visit this morning, went into work and just dealt with BS after BS after BS
Day ended with me telling the used car manager, “one day I’m just gonna say fook his job and knock your teeth out so you learn to talk properly to people”. My boss was standing next to him. He actually didn’t discipline me, told the guy “Matt’s had a shotty day and you need to change your tone”
Then at dinner….
Actually had a nice refreshing conversation with the usda guy about governments being asinine and not knowing anything
Told me in 5 years the Ash tree will be nothing more than a memory
Great conversation about bow hunting
Our two wives were talking kid stuff
It’s amazing, after a **** day at work, God puts a guy you can connect with at different levels in your path to help you “reset” so your weekend isn’t ruined
