Um.. yes.
Maybe rent a wheel barrel until its fixed???
I hear those log dollys can work wonders.
Scored a nice $5600 job this am. Got my stump guy in for an additional grand too. Finally was able to sharpen my own saws, as the arm is much better. Got a good crew coming in tomorrow, gonna have my buddy do the cutting on that one. Should be a nice day. I think I'm gonna finally put the arm back in service during the week on the $5600 gig. Hopefully the beginning of putting that deal behind me permanently. Things looking up a bit.

I just watched this and instantly thought of Ben
Well, its good to see you haven't lost that sense of humor of yours. lol
Yeah I was back out there again today doing work at the neighbors on each side, absolutely gorgeous! I've always wanted a lake house. After seeing two beautiful sunsets I now want a lake house on the east side of the lake.

Easy like Sunday morning...

Get with the freaking program and get an arbor trolly. Pays for itself in a couple weeks.
This is my program!

And I am getting off the 87 octane too. Been running that in my small 4 strokes, I swear that stuff becomes yellow in a couple of days.
Finally got the splitter sorted out and worked up enough gumption to drag it up to the wood pile, if I had the MT - 55 it wouldn't have been such a pain getting it jockied into position but that is another "story".
I finally get it in there and start splitting and the thing won't run for more than 2 minutes without shutting down.
I had once used some carb cleaner in my old Dingo, I put it in the gas tank to keep the system clean. Well it ran for a minute before the fuel pump went south so I don't put it in things with those kind of pumps anymore.
I don't know if any of you have had the same experience, maybe the pump was on its last legs, maybe those pumps don't like fuel treatments? I dunno.
Anyway, I put some in the log splitter along with some alcohol and it seems to be Ok. I don't want to mess with no ******* stupit little ass log splitter anymore but I am not Amish so what can I do?

I'll probably use the Mt -55 for awhile then get rid of it. I haven't paid for it, it still belongs to the owner. Its not that bad, I used it, put about 14 hours on it with the timing cover leaking. seems to work fine.
I told the owner that we should just take care of the leak ourselves, told him it would need a new timing cover. He thought it would be better if " professionals" worked on it. I have a negative attitude, I always fear the worst, I would have noticed the tiny crack, I would have expected it.
