[tramp bushler]

Usually . Hundred percent fer sure , maybe , perhaps .:msp_rolleyes:

Bean counters . Talk about kill joys .

And it puts the "spring" in the springboard...I like it!:msp_biggrin:

Hey Stikeen . I like your handle . Is it spring yet there ? . Any cuttin goin on there ?

We found that the 3/4 and 1 ton springs were too thick for anything but Stihl 404 that was new . And they were too heavy . 1/2 ton are just right .

:msp_biggrin: You forgot...."we'll get right back to you on that" and "you didn't spend that much last year". My favorite is always "can't you cut a few corners and drop the costs a little?"

Sometimes it helps knowing which bean counter to talk to.

Hey Tramp,
We're still pretty much still snowed in on the interior roads but folks are getting the itch (no cuttin yet)...the hooligan are starting to run and locals are picking up some kings, spring must be just around the corner!

I've got a F-350 and I know those springs would be a tad bit thick & heavy! I'll keep my eyes out for some 1/2 ton in the scrap piles.

Spring time in Southeast . Almost as good as summer in Southeast . I heard they upped the quota on herring in Sitka this year . %&*-+()?/;: fishermen . They will catch the last fish in the sea .

But other than that . Its great when everything comes back to life .

Do they look like the Dilbert Trolls and have a cave for an office?

I do know John, but not very well. He's out on the tug quite a bit so I hardly ever see him around town.

Start with the corners of their office. Carbide chain really helps with the nails!

I forgot about the leaf springs, there was a set of fallers that used those, but they ran Pioneers, so you know....

Give a springboard a shoe, and, next thing you know, it'll want to go to school. Same goes for horses, and brakes. Fie, I say.

Ya its too bad those didn't hold up . They were a good saw when they ran right.

Go , Did u get them on the ground ? .

They'll go tomorrow morning. I won't be there to see it, I have a doctor thing to do.
I've seen these guys work before and they're good. This is baby stuff for them. There won't be much to it, low key and low impact all the way. That's what everybody likes, no muss no fuss.
If they use the stuff I've seen them use before it won't be as loud as a shotgun blast.

I'd still like to find a couple of springboard shoes. Just in case.
