I hear Yah Bro'!! Waitin' on the Cold water extraction now!!
Hi Bobby !!
I got trees to chop , but just not getting there. LOL Great morning to do it too !
Bet they wait on me ! LOL
Think I will put another 029/290 together. Sold the last one I had. Not sure why people like them heavy things ?
Sure would like to drop them trees today. Perfect day for it ! No rain for a while and I stihl can't get moving ?
3 Hickory tress out front by the fence that look dead. Best fire wood I have around here ! Only thing better is Osage Orange ! I do have a small pile of that to split from my Brothers place ! Have one small Elm to get cut up too.
Get all this cut & split I should have nuff for the winter ! Planning on dropping some later on for next year. Have to wait and see on that ? LOL
Trading saws for wood has been working good for me. LOL

Mornin fellas!
More work on the over grow'd flower/rock garden
Looks more like a rock quarry!
They must have brought rocks in by the triaxle load!
But it is coming along nicely
Pulled the 346 out to flush cut a couple stumps
And of course chains and rocks don't mix! Gonna take some fileing........

I think I'm done collecting money for the day.
Jumped in a 1 ton flat bed we have here and go to fuel it up and notice that one of the fuel caps has been replaced by a rag!
Second time this has happened to me and they are tethered to the truck!
Now trying to get some files to download, then off to play delivery driver for the afternoon.

Got 3 more mac parts blasted. So damn slow.... If I keep it under 75 psi, compressor hardly runs, and air is dry, but damn slow. Crank it up to 95, and compressor would run a lot more if I didn't intentionally keep it under a 50% duty cycle. Blasts very fast, but clogs constantly because that is just enough flow to spew water... I really should get a seperator sometime....
One of the nice things about having a good compressor is that with the 70% duty cycle and 5,000 hour rated life I don't have to worry much about over working it. Even so, I always give it lots of breaks, and never let run more than half the time even though it could handle a lot more. No sense wearing it out sooner, just to get work done a little quicker. I am in no rush. I never do more than about 2 hours of blasting at once. Compressor seems hot enough after that? I am probably too careful... LOL
I should find a tank for my old devillebiss pump sometime? 160 psi single stage from the 1940s, single cylinder. Now that's a good compressor. The pump weighs more than my dad's porter cable pancake compressor. I have too many compressor pumps... LOL.

Keep up the hard work Geoff but don't let saws over run those exams!
John's happy pills must have kicked in and he got off his flippy cap... I'm stuck on this dang computer plotting plans.

Don't worry, I am ready for the exam. This is my easiest one, science. I haven't got less than a 90% on any test in that course all year. I have never had trouble on tests? I seem to memorize whole courses very easily.
Back on saws.. LOL. Can I do a very light honing on a iron lined cylinder without replacing rings? There are a few little scuffs, but it still has tons of compression? Thought I might as well do it while it's torn down?
Ayup .
I hope Ron remembered to set his alarm ......
A puppy ?
Better a rag than sand and marbles in the tank LOL

Just realized I shouldn't have sent you that Homelite Ranger John... I should have kept it for demolition of the Dutchmen camper! Wouldn't care what it did to the B&C and wouldn't have enough power to pull the chain apart if it found metal.
Plenty of Dew ! LOL
Cotton candy,gots to go easy on it. Only get so much at a time ! Cheap SOBs !
You got a Steel fer that ! LOL
