Stihlmans Wood,Tree cutting ramblings...........

[Stihlman441]

Hiya all
I have been cutting again this time a no good rotten up the guts Redgum next to a cottage thats about to get a new roof,gutters and re stumped as well.Trimmed the tops of in a cage and then they had a go at pushing it over with the excavator but no good so the ported 660 got a run.

nice job Andrew,
are they going to dig the stump out?

 

[Stihlman441]

Yep stump is coming out.
The upper part above the Y i didnt block it up for firewood,i will take it home a mill some slabs out of it.It is bigger than you think about 30'' dia and solid.:msp_thumbup:

 

[MCW]

You'd better bloody mill it too
About 10,000 furniture makers in Australia pucker up quick smart every time you take one of your saws near a nice lump of wood

 

[Stihlman441]

Yes mum i mean Matt,did i say how i hate Redgum it was drisly raining and red dust and water make saws very not nice.:frown:

The lacky who mixed the mortar for the right chimney should have been recognised for apprentice of the year! Oh, on second look there are guy ropes, lol! Thank #### you don't need height for digital or those big old VHF's!

 

[David (saltas)]

apprentice of the year just for Al

That second chimney is nothing you should see the VHF towers on every second house built in Warrnambool just to get abc and BTV6 back in the day

just a couple i could find with a quick trawl of the real estate sites.

Just a couple pics from the other day tree job with some of the family.:smile2:

 

[MCW]

Dude you must be awesome to run all those saws at once Or an octopus...
That tree must have crapped itself...

I have never seen anyone require that many chainsaws to cut down a tree.
You should learn how to sharpen your own chains then you wont need sooooo many saws in the future:hmm3grin2orange:

 

[Stihlman441]

You blokes are very funny.:msp_rolleyes:
There was two of us doing the trees,use each saw until they run out of fuel then get another one out for a run.

Mate, I think you need some good advice. There are two options you can use and you wont need any more chainsaws
First option, go to hardware store and buy 2 x cheap 5 litre fuel cans. Drill holes in them for a fuel line / oil line, drill a hole in your chainsaw caps and silicon the fuel cans to the side of the saw and connect up the fuel / oil line and Bobs your uncle, you have long range fuel tanks to last you all day.

Second option, drill hole in fuel caps, run fuel / oil hoses back to 20 ltr jerry cans and hook two 12 volt car fuel pump in between, connected by long wires to the ute barrery. You can keep sawing for 48 hrs straight.

You can thank me later Andrew for the quality advice mate.
No boubt we will see some of your chainsaws on E Bay now you dont need that many.:msp_thumbup

Mmm
Saws are a bit like girls they all need a little lovin from time to time and if ya dont keep them happy look out.

Yeah but at the end of the day the chainsaw would be a lot cheaper:hmm3grin2orange:
