You missed out on a little action, but there will be more.
Cut and pulled standing dead Oak and Elm for firewood and some will be used for the upcoming GTG. Dont know what is causing the Oak to die, maybe some Oak wilt? The oak is in various stages of season..........some is ready to burn and some is quite wet.
Used all 3 saws today and they worked great! I like the new Total Super bars that I put on the 371 and 359, too.
Thank You to Mike for coming over and braving the snowfall to help fell, trim and pull. We did reward him with a pickup load of nice Oak.

I did enjoy the day in the sticks in the snow and with some good company! We had so much fun that it was a tire chains AND 4 wheel drive kind of day.... I enjoyed the absolute smoothness of the 2260 and watched in amazement how Ron can slide a tree sideways to the gate, saw the log in half, and then re hook the cable and not touch the posts! I was impressed!! Came home to supper on the table and now looking forward to a stay in date tonight!!

Looks like I missed out on some fun too... My dad came over today and we spent the majority of the day tearing down the top end of his camry motor to put in new seals. I have to say its nice to have company in the shop!

Maybe I can stop and help here next weekend or the next. Got another item I want to pick up off CL out north of CR...

There's a color chart that got put into the other site... Seems like a good way to pick colors for folks - I'll put the colors down according to what you ask for - and I'll send that same chart to the shirt guy. He'll match em as close as he can.

Seems like it works just as good for folks to put their requests in the thread directly - but you can also send me a PM if you want. Here's who's ordered so far:
Dodgegeeks
Sam Tip
Struggle
Mastermind
Cobey
Hoskvarna
Black Dog Chainsaw
