Too hot to mill but wanted to get started on the sycamore. For the hundredth time, when I thought i had at least one of my 87cc Stihl’s working, it wouldn’t start. So switched the 36” lo pro rig back to the 64cc Makita. Then it wouldn’t start either. Finally got it running by two pm when it was already at least 100 degrees out. Just wanted to do a first cut to see the condition of the wood. Gonna be some beautiful slabs from this. Had a near tragedy on city brush pickup day yesterday. Figured it was too heavy for their crane plus it was in my yard rather than on the curb so didn’t have to worry about them mistakenly taking it. Wrong. Luckily I was watching when they pulled up cause the crane operator had the claw out reaching for it. Ran outside and called him off. Guess those city crane trucks can handle a log that big. I need myself one of those!
