Glad you're feeling better Thomas.
Spent yesterday afternoon splitting up this tree service stuff. Took an hour to get the splitter engine warmed up enough so it would start. Had to cover it up with a blanket and heater under it.

You can advance the timing about 7-10 degrees also, without it wanting to bite back when ya pull it over.

Might have to do that. I can grind a flywheel key easy enough.

I don't even use a key on them. Position, then a couple raps with the cordless impact, and done.. Key is for positioning only.

This is what a neighbor dropped off yesterday...

Good grief...

Good grief...

The Chain? The fact that the dog or cat used it as a scratching post? Or the overall cleanliness?

There was more than hair on that one... Meat and bone too...

Maybe a new way to butcher a whitetail?

After grinding a tooth, I decided to take a wire brush to the cutters first...
Smelled bad.. Real bad..

Yuck.

Just take it down to the nearest creek, start it up, and give the chain a bit of a bath. Ice?

No problem. That'll clean the chain, too.

That must have been what an old XL12 I've got was used for. Black nasty stuff with hair in it blocking the engine cooling fins. Didn't smell, but was the devil getting that stuff cleaned out.

What the latest top handle Echo resembled, but just Palm tree fiber, not hair.

I've heard of guys quartering larger animals like that. One mentioned using vegetable oil so as not to taint the meat.

I did butcher a hog bout a month ago but I used a sawzall to split it down the back. I did buy a brand new blade.

Charity Cut 9
Hey everybody, looking at January 24th for the next Charity Cut. Probably same place as the last one, but I'll leave that open, for now. Kind of hard to believe this will be #9.
Seems like we started doing these just a couple of months back, instead of almost a year and a half ago. Also, I have to meet a friend of mine who has some acreage down in the National Forrest, should be interesting, but have to check it out first.
Anybody game for this one? I am.

Workshop +1 or more.

sawsall works way better!!! bone chips can make a meat mess, granddad quartered a big bull out of season with a chainsaw, random bone chips turned up everywhere
by them their buchering was sloppy at best... unsanitary at worse
