+1..........and im so busy during the day...........no help, just me.

Colton is that a contract truck? i wish i didn't have to fool with a truck......its an awfull expence...

 

[coltont]

The dude bought the truck off is and hauls exclusively for us. Works out really well

 

[coltont]

Used to have the mill haul for us but being at there convenience really sucks.

 

[treeslayer2003]

looks like its dry there too.........i wonder how much longer this dry weather will last.....

 

[coltont]

Dammed dust bowl in the landing. Makes it s real pain. But I have to say it's better than mud

 

[treeslayer2003]

yea, muds comin........it always comes some time

 

[coltont]

There were days towards the end of last winter that I needed much boots in the landing it was that deep. Only spot it could be put on the mountain and it all drained rite to the landing. Made it not ideal conditions but it had to work so we made it work

pretty work brother north..........that stick like ta got ya. are those triple taper? i never had no luck stacking them. i see you have the light bar, do you think its any floppier than solid?

 

[northmanlogging]

Nah just red heads, Keep a 8" double on hand for when I need to "fix" a back leaner... If ya need to stack em and they keep poppin out on ya put a pinch of dirt between the wedges, and a little more for the log and the stump, works most of the time.

I'm dig'n the stihl light bars, expensive but worth the money, they are a little bit bendier then a solid bar but not as bad as a solid Oregon, or worst an Oregon light bar.

The one I made was all right but its in the scrap pile now... just to freck'n old... It was floppier than an Oregon solid, but not as bad as the Oregon light. It got worse after the glue came apart... couldn't even keep a chain on it.

Nice fir dump'n North! :0)

 

[Samlock]

Northie, I like how you gave the last fir a push while it was going.

It's a pity one can't score them red heads up here.

 

[treeslayer2003]

ah, i thought they were the TT wedges.........when i try to stack those its ok till the thick parts come together, then ya just can't drive um. i like um but i should keep a couple regulars for stacking. pm inbound northy.
