    Double-Cut Felling Techniques?

    A lot hasn’t changed in 50+ years also.... Like volunteers who ask when they already know or decide who knows and who doesn’t before even hearing what might be said/read. Good luck. Owl

    Double-Cut Felling Techniques?

    Look up Patrick Lacey on that YouTube or some of the Canadians. Everything cut is bigger than the bar. It’s softwood so you’ll have to interpret that into your situations. You don’t always have to dance around a stick. The less back and forth the more you pay attention. You’ll be less tired and...

    Looking to get into Fire Contracting in NorCal

    Hey Genius, why don’t you get some first hand experience then come back. Until then shut your hole, you’re the one interjecting bs, and third hand BS at that. If you don’t want the strait scoop from people that live the situation and deal with it every season, well I guess it’s true what they...

    why is face only 1/3?

    Nope. Yea, sitting by on a stump is therapeutic and entertaining. Some of the good ones aren’t so hard to find. You, Randy, slowP, Northman and some others, pretty easy to find when someone wants too. Owl

    How Tough Are You?

    Things happen, sometimes for the better. I was thinking about the GTG the other day. Thought about having another but the pigs live where the wood was, don't expect anyone one wants to cut in a well used pig pen. That was good time, I need to get down to see Farley if he has another this next...

    First firewood sales of the season

    I know he's a blowhard, hopefully you're right and hopefully he's just spewing more BS as per his normal. If not I feel sorry for the people that trusted him in a business agreement. Owl

    First firewood sales of the season

    Yup. If I called asking about wood and was told, we're 60 cords out right now, I would probably find another seller. Especially if as you said, no wood = no heat for some of your customers. I would/did/do have a hard time taking orders when I'm was that far behind, but not all business people...

    Arvika

    Arvika is a Swedish axe. The few I've seen hands on were very nice and good steeled tools. If I was to find one at a good price I'd handle it and get to swing'n. Them suckers ain't cheap new. Good broad face and a wedge pounding pol that others should strive to be. Don't quote me but I believe...

    wheelbarrow vs 4 wheel cart

    Mom has one of those to move wood from their shed to the garage. I was surprised how tippy it actually is. It doesn't get loaded much higher than the sides. The Grand kids do not use that to ride down their drive way in either. It's solidly built, but tippy. She likes it though and is happy to...

    How Tough Are You?

    Sooner she realizes that she has only one option under lock and key the better. Think outside the anywhere else box and you'll be just fine. Maybe not a good option, but an option none the less. NO, there ain't been no wife around here for a good number of years now. Doing and enjoying just...

    How Tough Are You?

    When I was 15 I had better things to do than lie(full of it) about my age to get on a computer site and blow a bunch of bunk around. At 15 I would think you'd have discovered girls already, but who knows, to each their own. Come back in 3 years when you should be here by the site rules and after...

    Which one? A few have fairly tight similarities. Merry Christmas to you and your Mrs., Mr Mac. Owl

    What's your knife mines a gerber 97223

    I've had one of these in my pocket for over 20 years now, Klein 1550-4. I try others now and then and always come back to the ole stand-by. 20 bucks, bullet proof, holds an edge great. Just tried a benchmade 940, it's the dullenest, edge chippinest knife I've ever had in my life. I'd feel bad...

    How's your 2017 firewood coming along?

    Good Lord, man you're an overachiever. I thought I was doing good to be 4-5 years or so ahead of the game. I think I have a Freudian type complex now, thanks. Owl

    Log splitter problem - need advice

    Have you checked your filter, screen and fluid condition and level? Seems odd that a valve would suddenly be out of whack, not impossible, but certainly not the first thing I'd dive into. Owl
