Really wish I could make this one fly, but not looking good for the home team...Wife has the Realy for Life, my parents are going to be in TN and the MIL just had hip replacement surgery...

The only person that thought it would be a good idea was my boss...He has been trying to get us out of here to see some customers and I have several between here and there...

Here is a good size oak round. I couldnt resist a poser shot.

Funny you ask, The mill has a 5' DBH poplar and an even bigger oak that they need noodled in two. They are about 10' long, they said they would pack them down with the skidder if we wanted to split em...

Hey Wiggs, just a question....

Do you have two turntables and a microphone???

Bottles and cans, and just clap your hands, just clap your haaaaannnds.

And that is "where its at!!!"

LOL.

And no, I sold both my turntables and my microphone and bought some chain loops.

Wish I could come. I'd probably get the long-distance award. I was talking on the phone the other day with Jeremy and told him there was so much planned that it was gonna need to be a 2-day GTG, with tents, campfires, and all that goes with them for the overnight.

I'm just aching to get the Tree Sling'r milled/ported 660 with 32-inch Sugi into hardwood much bigger than we have around here, and I bet some of that there hickry would do the trick.

Drink a few, saw a few and swear a few for me down there, guys.

You can send that saw down, and I'll be sure to introduce it to some hardwood. Heck, it's only like a 15 hour drive, come on down.

I made some saw bucks today. Whatcha guys think?

First one was made on the cheap. I took two scrap pallets I had, removed the lathing from one end of each and screwed it together. Actually turned out kinda nice, and plenty strong.

The second one is a hoss daddy. Solid oak and cherry rough cut, cut out and cross braced and carriage bolted together. It would hold a dozer up.

Lookin good there Wiggs!! Don't go and cut all the wood up now!!!!

 

[rms61moparman]

Wrapping the presents and putting them under the tree I see!!!

As if I wasn't suffering from anticipation anxiety already!LOL
Sheila and I are REALLY looking forward to next weekend.
Sure hope to have BIG "big medicine" ready by then!
If anybody happens to ask you, it takes a WHILE to sharpen a 41" full comp .404 chain!
