Aluminum
Check this one out on my old F150! HA HA yea i said F150. The guy that put it on there shelled out big bucks for an ALL aluminum box body to save weight on that 1/2 ton pickup. what a joke.... i trashed the rear end of the truck in no time hauling full loads of wood and tools...
Old Kohlers
Is it an old K series kohler? if it is, that is one darn good engine, they don't make them that way anymore!! Darn near bulletproof. good find!!
inspiration
Steve, you are the inspiration for this post!! I read your post the other day about wearing out the steps and such... it inspired me to share the idea that I use. We don't suck.... we just ummmm let's see the right words here.....have an addiction for firewood that leads us to...
good tool
I have one of these also, it's a good tool, and works well. Made in usa as far as I know... havent seen anything that makes me think otherwise. It's cool that u found an old traditional axe head and fitted it with a new handle...i think the steel used in the old ones is better...
Excellent idea! Thank you! :cheers: This will be a big help especially when my 5 year old son helps me chuck the small ones down....he misses alot! :rockn:
trap door
Funny thing is....when i cut that hole in the closet, the wife went nuts! I didn't discuss any of it with her, i just did it as i promised her she'd never notice it. and it's fine....if i ever go to sell the house, i can patch it up with some leftover laminate flooring, and no one...
Here's how I do it. Not as good as an outside cellar opening, but it saves hundreds of trips up and down the steps! The trapdoor is hidden in the closet, and the "door" part of it just lifts out and pops back in. The wood room is an old well/pump room that is no longer in use for this. If I...
034
Hey my 034 did the same thing....it was the oiler tube between the pump and the oil port at the bar. gotta pull the clutch to get at all the parts. it's a place to check, im sure others will be able to add more input. :cheers:
STD's
You ought to be ashamed of yourself transmitting std's and all...."S awing T rees D isease" and what's worse this poor unsuspecting innocent man may come down with C.A.D.! >>GASP<< Well, at least he had fun in his chaps... umm i mean YOUR chaps :hmm3grin2orange:
Akron area Dolmar
Hey guys found one in the greater Akron area... The Henry Bierce Co. in Tallmadge is a dolmar dealer since this past year. they carry lots of saws and even "cutoff" type construction saws. Just throwing that out in case it's closer for anyone! :cheers:
Hey guys just had a thought on tossing aluminum cans in the fire to reduce creosote. I googled the melting and burning temps of aluminum, and they are: melting 1220 F, and burning @ 6920 F!! surely we are just melting the cans and not burning them! But this makes me wonder where are the...
All time motto
You got it bro! nice work! IF IT'S FREE IT'S FOR ME!!! My wife hates that saying..especially when i let if fly in front of her friends HAHAHAHA:cheers:
:agree2: I am truly suprised that this is the only mention of the old 2 wheel gravely tractors!!! To me it is obvious that most of the men who have posted on this thread have little or no experience with the 2 wheel gravely. The gravely is 100% gear driven, and unstopable (in their own...
Pickeroons rock
I too like the wooden handle model, it just feels right. at first they're just another thing to carry around, but they soon earn their spot right next to the maul. my maul and pickaroon are a pair that goes everywhere together. they're good at unloading trucks, tossing in a...
