Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

[Deleted member 149229]

Heat index here is 103, I ain’t done very much.

Cooled off this morning before the storm rolled in and dumped another inch or so. After the sun came out I put down a couple more box elders. Just try landing them on the brush pile then climb in top em and pull the log out back. Only complaints mosquitoes, flys and that damn gopher. 79° and sunny now. Too wet to mow praise be!

I cut a flowering plum today that the Japanese beetles killed...I got a single stick of firewood off the base, does that count?!?

Too blasted hot ton do anything serious...had 110 heat index today at the house according to my weather station.

it seems like the members who are regulars in the firewood forum are fairly tight knit.

Correct.

And those dudes that hang around that other place with their noses up the saw builder’s arses are about as trustworthy as gas station sushi. If you hang around these places long enough you’ll see them turn on each other at the drop of a hat and then a new set of groupies takes their place.

Don’t candy coat it, say what you really think.

You know it’s old advertising when there’s no area code or cell number.

Just got back in the AC or I'd throw a saw in my helicopter and be right over . Phone says 90 but it feels worse.

Hot as all get out for a few days here. CAD has infected me but I missed out on two super deals today. I need another saw like a hole in the head. What I need to do is get stacking and moving what I have split......

The morning was not too bad, but in the afternoon I just fixed a saw recoil (in my garage, out of the sun) and was sweating so profusely that I had to take my T Shirt off to let it dry!

Went upstairs into the AC and took a drink break!

Would love to hear the story. Hoping I can make the PA GTG and have a chance to meet you, Steve, and the rest of the PA crew. I’m sure I could learn a ton from you guys.

I’m active on both forums however it seems like the members who are regulars in the firewood forum are fairly tight knit.

Details of PA GTG???

I miss all the good fights, darn it.

We dont have ac.

I did not even put a shirt on at all today. I sweat THROUGH 1 pair of shorts in a few hours of noodling and then loading some oak. Took me almost 2 hours and I hardly got half a pick up bed full. I had to take 3 breaks.

The heat SUCKED today. Heat index was 105.

WTF, this is Michigan. Not Florida. Give me a break Mother Nature [emoji1787]

Did get to try out my new 32” B&C though [emoji16]. First time I tried a full skip chain. I wont lie, it may have actually been smoother than FC. If not it was just as smooth as a full comp. ill never buy a full comp again now.

I would but we aren’t allowed to talk like that on this site

Personally I’ve been screwed in multiple saw deals and as a moderator was thrown under the bus by those idiots many times. I threw the whole lot of them and their little ringleader on ignore and it sure makes this a better place.

They can slap each other on the back and refer to each other as “bro” and “cuz” but then when things melt down, watching egomaniacs fight each other is good entertainment.

Me either. Last electric bill was $20.

Challange accepted.

What's the best 2 cycle oil? Discuss.

Bear did some true scrounging and knocked off two of my feeders this morning. Ironically he walked by a cooler with pork steaks and beer to get to the second feeder.

He came back three times. I fired up the muffler modded Poulan the last time and he hasn’t been back lol.

looks like time I come for a bear dinner!! lol

I used to use 1/2 skip chain in 28" and 36", and I liked it. Then I did some testing (timed cuts) and full comp just cuts faster, so that is what I use now.

He’ll provide plenty lol
