I filled the wood box for the last time. Burning a little this evening but mostly trash. Was Tee shirt weather today! About time!
Skidding cone especially if the permits are looking at residual damage, etc. Even a plastic barrel works surprisingly well if it has one of those tapered bottoms but I find them a hassle to transport along with everything else. Portable winch now do a battery model too. Might be useful for just pulling a few trees rather than a full day of it.I have a 10" Jonsered and Wetterlings plus a 12" Wetterlings .
Stay away from the Chinese junk .
I have a friend that has a one man treeco , He know's that I can get around in the woods pretty good by myself and he asked me for my thots on moving logs a couple of years ago .
I explained what I had , we discussed what he had then I recommended him the portawinch .
A year later he told me that it was one of his best purchases , he loves it .
He got the skid cone and is more than pleased , the last time we talked he was going to order the bigger pulley that speeds up line speed .
Hmm , I should call and borrow it to test
Thanks Dan, good to know. Was looking at the Husqvarna (same as johnsered?) and the Fiskars ones.I have a 10" Jonsered and Wetterlings plus a 12" Wetterlings .

Throw that over in the HVBW thread too. Thousands of dollars worth!More highly valuable black walnut from the FIL. His 261 cut enough from the stack of logs with one tank of fuel to fill the 8' bed somewhat neatly stacked just over the bed rails.View attachment 738245
JustJeff, we got 2" of rain yesterday. Wife told me to watch the grandchildren for awhile so I did. Let's just say the parents and her likely won't ask me to do it again soon. I did watch them closely and provided a few ideas for them. That poor poplar is covered in moss because we have had so much rain. The puddle was gone an hour after the rain stopped.

Seriously thinking about a chainsaw winch sense most of the wood I cut is a ways from the road on steep ground.
Couldn't agree more and it's perfectly predictable. The veneer of democracy will be stripped away when the new choices also disappoint. Then it gets interesting ;-)It looks like the euro elections are a rejection of the major parties...
I love it! I wish my puddles disappeared that fast. It's clay here, once dry it's great but it's taking forever this year.JustJeff, we got 2" of rain yesterday.

You've seen my bench James. It's never empty.View attachment 738285 Need to get some of these running again starting to look like a saw graveyard. Need carb kit, lines, and filter for the 111 then should be good to go. So my question to you fellow scroungers/saw nuts what goes on the bench next?
