    Fiskars Workout.

    Ok, here is 5 vids of Mikey and I splitting this last weeks worth of wood. All oak that we just cut from logs brought home last march. The camera kept stopping on my daughter so it ended up with 5 shorter vids. Kayla was also a bit cold from running the skidsteer. You can hear her shivering. I...

    Fiskars Question.

    I find myself not worrying about over striking another piece of wood anymore. Many times I over strike on purpose cause I am too lazy to move the piece that is in the way and just swing away. I figure if it is guaranteed I ain't gonna worry about it. I also get twanged once in a while in the...

    What did you do on Your Fourth?

    Well this was actually the third and fourth. I started on this tree yesterday after noon, and finished it up today. It was a big cottonwood and it measured 6 1/2 feet at the stump. I ended up calling HeavyFuel in for backup with his 42 inch bar. My 34 inch wouldn't have made it. <object...

    Skidsteer logging

    Some guys have talked about skidsteers and logging and such. Here is a video of the way we do it. Just need trails that are wide enough to get the logs through. Works real good for trees that get hung up. <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="480" height="390"...

    Dances With Flying Squirrels-new nickname

    I dropped a tree today. Turned out it was pretty hollow and I ended up with a barberchair. And flying squirrels running everywhere. There must have been 15 of them in that tree. There was 6 alone still on the barberchair. I brought my brother Joel over to take a closer look at them. They are...
