Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

[Philbert]

Nate , get a Portable winch https://www.portablewinch.com/ca_en/

Seen the gasoline models. The battery units look interesting.

Battery would be stealthy , that coupled with a battery saw and a Tesla could turn someone into a Wood Scrounging Ninja lol

My grandfather gave me this yesterday. He was with the 2nd during the invasion of Germany. In his mind the men that stormed the beaches were some of the bravest men to ever walk the planet.
Hope you all had a good memorial day.

Hey I see 55 parts....want a couple saws to put together so you can use that recoil and clutch cover.....

If you look under the drawer in the bench you'll see the 55 carcass those covers came off of. Theres a 51 P&C on the shelf for it that Del sent me. Other then that I need basicly everything but bearings and seals and maybe those to. Was supposed to be my first project saw but i decided it would be a better parts saw.

The easy fixes go on the bench next. The ones that require time or money get put on the back burner until winter. [emoji106]

Hoping to have insulation and drywall or plywood up for next winter. Hard to keep an old chicken shed warm with a box heater and no insulation. Wanted it done for this past winter but it didn't happen.

As my Dad (also a WW II Vet) used to say "the real heroes are buried on foreign soil".

He was in the reserves when the war broke out, and they reclassified his Artillery unit to 771 Tank Destroyers.

This was their symbol, a latter group stole their name!

Could be a new take on "Midnight Autos".

But I could rant for days about Tesla ;-)
this is not the ninja scroungers vehicle of choice. Nothing stealthy about burning the whole forest down, unless that's one heck of a distraction to escape detection:

Free heat or spensive heat ?

That was a tough job. The German tanks had us out gunned and out armoured for a good period of the early part of the war.

Can you ask him what he thinks about fellow cave diver Vernon Unworth's defamation case (trial is October, IIRC) against Tesla's Elon Musk for the latter calling him "pedo guy" and other typically (for Musk) unrestrained BS? Thanks in advance ;-)

Lol

It's certainly not eco-heat.

I scrounged alot of miles on the bike this weekend. Does that count? Oh. And bugs. And food.

Very nice. My grandpa’s cousin was in the 899th TD battalion. I have his Purple Heart.

I have a bowl with a similar emblem.

You forgot to tie your shoelaces.....

Enjoy sir! They just started biting today here. Have seen them but they have been “non-bitey” for a few weeks.

Looks pretty bad.
We went out fishing earlier and it rained a little, but the main part that was supposed to hit here broke up and we just had a few hard downpours.
