    London U.K. wood burners.

    Tons! I lived there for 7 years in the early 2000s and I'm going back for a few years this summer. A lot of people burn wood, but even more still burn coal. Smokeless varieties are mandated in most urban areas, but they still contribute to the overall emission problem.

    5,630 timberpro saws sold..

    I'm going to the UK next fall gentlemen, I would be happy to do a test for you guys. Hell, I'd even ship them through the APO mail system for you. I'll keep you guys posted next year. They're in Liverpool, I could probably even pick them up for no shipping.

    Want to Sell Mint like new 395xp forsale or tradetrade

    I have a 385 done by Brad, it is bananas. I usually run a 32" bar with full skip. I've never found anything to slow it down. I mill with it too, 44"; no problems, ever.

    Small time firewood sales

    I stack mine in cord increments after I split it, to dry. Then I throw it in my dump trailer, knowing it's a cord.

    Helko Vario 2000 Heavy Log Splitter

    I have one. I find it pretty good for straight-grained wood. It doesn't do well in anything that's really dense or even a little twisty. Because of the fairly aggressive V shape, it shocks the wood more than penetrating it. Those are my observations. cheers, Matt

    1 saw, two saw, three saw, oh no!

    yes, you need one. Try to find a nice 346xp used. They are beasts, and affordable now.

    the wood gods have smiled on me

    I think the support beam for your lean-to is just big enough!

    Helping out a neighbor

    Awesome! I love getting the big dogs out to run! When you're blasting through the big stuff it doesn't even seem like work; best thing is that you helped out a neighbor. cheers, Matt

    Jonsered 2253 value?

    Well, I ended up getting it. I'm gonna run it for awhile then probably get it to Brad to make it right. Thanks for the wisdom guys.

    Jonsered 2253 value?

    I understand! I'm in no rush.

    Jonsered 2253 value?

    Yes!! I love when I get the "you suck" prices. Doesn't happen too often to me, but I see others get them all the time and it makes me chuckle. I'll probably just send it right to Brad for some improvements. Thanks again guys.

    Jonsered 2253 value?

    Thanks guys. I'm a cheap bastard too. He floated a price of $250 out there, I think I'll take it. Brad, you still grinding on jugs?

    Jonsered 2253 value?

    hey guys, I stumbled upon a brand new 2253, 18" bar, in the box that some guy found in a shop he just bought. He knows I'm a saw guy, so he asked if I'd like to buy it. Is it a good saw? How does it copare to a worked up 346xp? What's the value of that saw, and what's a fair price to pay for it...

    BBBRRRRRRRRR, post up your low temp this am and your whereabouts

    well, I'll go ahead and piss y'all off. It was a brisk 63 here this morning. I think it's funny how the Hawaiians bundle up like it's 6.3! I'd trade for snow and 10 in a heartbeat though.

    Help! First season burning wood!

    Welcome to the site! We will fill you with more info than you ever wished for. Nice looking homestead. As far as your picture, is that your firewood you're talking about behind the car? If so, you or your husband should split it from rounds. It will dry exponentially faster. Grab a Fiskers, X25...

    The hot tub is up and running!!!

    Very nice. I plan to do this at some point. Your little girl looks like she's gonna be a handful for about the next 20 years!

    the oak tree from hell

    I would think a garden tractor and trailer from the low road. Must be deceiving, I've been in terrible places with my 1962 Simplicity!

    new saw

    to me it sounds like the 361 does everything you need, plus you like it. Get the 346, have one of the builders on here work it up, you will only get the 361 out every once in a while. the 346 is an absolute beast, and it's pretty light. Best of luck, Matt

    Couple pics from today

    Nice, I love the snow. I vote you put a 28" bar on that beast and keep the 361 with a 20". Saves a lot of time if you ever do get into the 24"-28" stems. Matt
