We were thinking at least 3 cords of wood in the tree probably more. Enough to warm the house for a few days.

Thanks to all who are going to make the drive to Zumbrota to help cut fire wood!

Would anyone that's coming have a Jonsereds 621? Growing up, this is the saw I remember local loggers running. I would really like to run one of these saws! Some day....I would like to get one....

Today....I ran one AND got one! :clap:

:hmm3grin2orange:
Thanks tmurph! I am the third owner of this saw....I'll have to put some pics up... It's a lot like my 49sp.....just BIGGER! :clap:

Looks like you guys had a good time. Wish something like that happens here. Congratulations on a good day.

Ps. I'm gonna get my dads 621 running he alway raves about that thing. I just keep telling him atleast mine run.

Nice job fellas! Would have loved to hear the sound of that tree going over. What a beast. That chainsaw is flat out crazy. I can't imagine cutting with a 42" bar.
Glad everyone had fun!

And will still have a house if the winds blow the wrong way.

Dang it was windy yesterday, I am still digging saw dust out of my eyes. No matter which side of the log you stood on the wind would blow dust at your face.

I started a new thread on the Zumbrota soft Maple:

Here too.. Planned on knocking some trees down yesterday, but the wind was playing heck. My son and I ended up going "scrounging" for dead and down and ended up with a nice score. He also has the "disease", as my wife likes to call it, now.. :msp_tongue:

Looks like a great day! Nice job getting that big ole maple on the ground safely.

I had a good time yesterday, I would have to agree with everyones feelings on the wind and sawdust. Didn't get to run the saws as much as I hoped to, but I did use the fiskars quite a bit. Thanks again to Manyhobbies for his hospitlay and to everyone who came out yesterday. I got some pictures I will try to get up here soon.
