Well, as you come down I-5, there are a lot to choose from. What kind of carriage? I'm thinking butt rigging will do--way cheaper and we don't care about the comfort of the crew. Some boys at the school here are refurbishing a yarder that was "donated" to the school back in 1980. They are hoping to have it in the Loggers Jubilee parade. I might donate toilet paper for them to throw into the crowd. New of course.:)

So, since a yarder requires a major hauling cost, unless it is a Koller type, why don't we use the excavator and raise a spar tree? I'm sure somebody has a saw engine we could modify. All we need is a two drum set up. All right, get to work on it! :)
 
Good gosh down to 38 last night. Wife made me start a fire. Ive got plenty of wood now. LOL I just wanted to tell you guys that alot of your wood that you were cutting is donated to the church. So the church thanksyou.

And here's one of the seminars at the PNW GTG with Professor Gologit.

After a quick undercut, the Professor made a top cut and demonstrated how to stick a saw. Following was a demonstration on the proper technique of unsticking a saw.

Nice Hamilton Standard hat...;)
 
Yes. He stole my topic, which I have been studying and practicing all winter in the blowdown. I could not go on after that display. The only thing I could do would have been to demonstrate how to have all your wedges stuck in the log along with the saw. Oh well, he is from............CALIFORNIA so we must make allowances.

LOL...The hat is quite old but so is the guy wearing it. I grabbed it by mistake the morning I left. You're the first person to comment on it. We had a couple of A&Ps and a couple of av-techs at the GTG but nobody noticed it. Too busy looking at and playing with all the saws.

:hmm3grin2orange: OKay...next year you can get your saw hung up in front of everybody. It's alright. I don't mind. Really...you just go right ahead and stick it good. Then we'll get somebody who has never used wedges before to wedge you out. Extra bonus points will be given if the total number of wedges exceeds five. Remind me to bring my camera.

Nah...just a little nose rubbin'. I had log marking paint in places that still defy logical explanation. How the hell does it do that? Maybe Slowp knows...she paints trees with the secret Fed Formula tree paint. Mine was just the cheap old logger variety.

My father was a pilot in the USAF. Over 8000 hours and combat in two wars. I learned what a Hamilton Standard prop was about the time I learned to read. Most of his time in recips, his favorite powerplant was the P&W R2800.

Bob, between saws and planes we could have a pretty good campfire chat...:cheers:
