There's some interesting trees down your way, Forest Red gum, Blue box, Coastal Grey box, etc.

 

[deye223]

yeah but the bluegum is very inconsistent some is like box to burn and some is like apple box

I'm in Stratford and the common garden varieties are numerous stringy barks. Red gum is few and far between in the forests, but sh1tloads in the lanes. Cut down 2 dead wattles yesterday out the back...I love to burn that. There is a nice mix though. Thought I came across a Turpentine the other day but I didn't think they grew this far south.

I'm in Stratford

Got an idea of where I mean, or is it picked clean these days?

I think I do. Munro way?

I go all round the place...the pickings in the lanes can be better than the forests as they are picked bare.

 

[chippy]

There's a guy in Munro lives near the train line who's obsessed with firewood. Is that any of you guys?

 

[scallywag]

Yep, Munro.
It's been a while since I've been through that way, I first travelled that country with the Angus McMillan party.

 

[scallywag]

Is that any of you guys?

Nope, not me.

 

[deye223]

not me i'm near Bairnsdale

Got asked by a mate to tune his saw, never again View attachment 429663

It's blown a chunk of cylinder gasket, idiot me thinking it might just need a carby kit. Oh well least it finally made me buy a proper vacuum tester, the crank seals ain't leaking so should I just leave them be?

are you going to get this one or something else

Trailer holds a little bit more than the last one. This load 3/4 filled it but it was damn heavy as it's as wet as...Bit happier with this effort.

This might explain why the chain jumped off the bar twice today....damaged a drive link on the first chain that it wouldn't run smooth in the bar, filing it back now.

Edit...broke one drive link and won't sit properly in the bar about 3 drivelinks either side of it...think the chain may be slightly twisted although I can't see it.

Vince, did you punch the oil screw on the Ozito? Oil flow is a bit on the low side on max for Aussie hardwood. I think it's designed for bamboo.....

Testing is going well. Ripper little saw.

i am using the new stihl bar oil.. the thin runny stuff. and mine pisses out oil. being adjustable i have wound mine back. it lubes more than my 192's.


hey bennn*e have you tried the new stihl fuel? meant to be the ducks guts as its not petroleum based. frigging dear tho. but for the occasional home user it would be perfect.
