Only a few tanks through it, with AMSOIL Saber at 40:1, but I thought there would be some evidence on it that it was run!
The Catskills used to be all Hemlock. They cut them all during the civil war to use the Tannic Acid to tan leather. Mostly hardwoods grew in their place.
A lot of the barn siding in NY is Hemlock. If it is off the ground it will last over 100 years w/o any stain. It seems to absorb minerals from the rain and get harder.
They are very slow growing, but can get very large and very old.

I just got some bad news. There were 4 guys in the old neighborhood that were in the same grade in school.
One passed last year, and now there are just two of us left.
Damn, it must mean I'm getting old!!!

Thats what I was thinking. That’s not how it’s being used here (well, partially), but it‘s the same type. At 6:10 he’s missing the point, the arch is supposed to keep the leading edge off the ground.
From your neck of the woods Brett. Pretty sure they didn't have any ported saws to cut all them logs for the bridge.
The comment section is full of comments just like yours.
And I got this from one of the comments. “This job was at Rewa between Cheltnam and Hunterville”. Looks like Cheltnam is a misspelling of Cheltenham.

Mill 'em, nails be damned.
I guess assholes like company. But seriously, that must have been an area they had to agree to harvest to get the rest of the job, left it until the last, and just wanted the heck out of there. Butt ugly. Fugly even.

I have a breaker/spinner if you end up going the frankenchain route.
Can't believe what some guys will do for a little firewood, or to keep from vacuuming the living room!From your neck of the woods Brett. Pretty sure they didn't have any ported saws to cut all them logs for the bridge.

Well, looks like I'm on Double Lock down again. My daughter came over a few weeks ago, on a Sunday, for my birthday. Every body stayed back, virtual hugs from across the room. Monday she called and said they had their first confirmed case, so she may have been a carrier. Two weeks gone by, all clear. Last night my wife said a confirmed case was in Ace hardware, and for anyone showing symptoms, that had been in the store that day, contact their doctor. That was over a week a go, so I have a few more days of quarantine, but I'm feeling fine. Heading to the woodpile!
James, looks like Steve has you hooked up on the chain. If I find any I'll get your address and send them to you for spares. I don't have many saws that small.
Is your grandfather in this one?
Do you know where it was taken?
I like that the engine is wood fired
.Wow, wonder how they placed all those like that, I guess much like the amish set up a barn, working togetherFrom your neck of the woods Brett. Pretty sure they didn't have any ported saws to cut all them logs for the bridge.

.I notice the engine is #2, how many you think they had.
None of those boys look overweight lol.
Joe, my Dr told me a contact with a contact (in other words, no direct contact with a sick person) is not a big concern and to "go on about your life".
I know there are lots of different opinions, just sharing.
I stopped seeing clients on 3/31 … for 2 weeks will do it all by mail. Was winding down anyway!

2019 372xpg came today! Still not sure why I took this over a 572xpg.
Must admit, the masses seem to be warming up to the 572 quickly. However, I still think you did alright.
Nice saw! I’d still like to get a heated handle saw someday. Sure would have been nice when I was falling timber, always had a hard time keeping my hands warm in winter.
We live about 30 miles from a resort town and private jets fly in quite a bit. A guy from Seattle flew in to check on a house he’s having built, 3 police officers met him at the airport and told him to get back on and go back to Seattle, guess their taking the don’t travel here serious.
