They don't have a clue what the weather will be like in a week - it's statistics and conjecture at its best. I'll wait til Thursday to pass judgement on weather
...but damn I hope it's nice...I'm ready!

I have the big log for the gtg or will have this Friday once the ground hardens' up some and I get it loaded. (fingers cross).
I'll have it and a much smaller one. This wheather has been bad for log gathering.
Me and two AS members. Pwoller and Roddy (sorry Roddy I can't remember your SN right now).
My 3120xp with a 60 inch bar was around 5 inches short of going complete though.
It's a soft maple that's 17 feet around at the widest point and it's a soild as the come. Bring your big bars guys.
The last pic shows how big it is still at 12 feet away from the bell. That's a 60 inch bar.
It took alot of wedges and hammering (Thanks Pwoller) to bring it down. It was my fault the hinge was still too wide. I know you PNW guys are shaking your head, I'm sure. Hey it's was my first really really big tree.
Hopefully Roddy or Paul will come along and post more pix or start another thread with more pix.
If the wheather lets the ground dry up, then I'll have this log at the gtg.
Thanks Roddy and Paul. I'll have to admit it was a fun day for saws.

Very nice...I was playing on a log about the same size today at our local dump...A friend of my that owns a tree service cut it last week and hauled it there...It was a crane job for him and for some reason none of the regular wood scrounges have touched it yet...

I'm still here just haven’t had much time for chit chat lately.
Yes Brad I know what I can do with that square cant but I really don’t think your gonna like it in there sideways.
Been a bit busy....
Wildknight came up and helped me work up a few trees for the GTG today THANKS YA
.Louie, glad to see you scored a biggun, that’s been the big fly in the ointment for me is a big log to play on.... I've got plenty of wood here but the biggest thing is probably a 22" Oak.

Excellent. Looks like the 72" bar will get some use. Now, which power head to put it on. 084, 090, or 076 Super. Why not all three of them
