Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

[rarefish383]

Carolyn called right after I made the above post. She gets to stay another day. She had PT at 8 this morning. Found out the wrist she broke is still too weak to use the walker. They are putting an elevated cradle on it so she can rest her forearm on it. Has to pass PT tomorrow to get released.

How tall is one like that.

Fixed it for ya Brett.

Hey now, sometimes I resemble that remark lol.
Taking this one out for a spin today, much of what what I'll be cutting is that big or about twice as big, I could probably just use a stihl .
Hopefully this will handle the bigger 12" stuff.

The United States doesn't have woods? Learn something every day.

WOOSH!

Your location is “TheWoods”.

Logger nate’s location is “United States”.

Were those trees in the Woods or in the United States?

Nice job Nate.
That bark is as thick as the diameter of most the wood I cut today, good thing I had a 70cc husky to do it with .
Maybe I should break out the 462 with the bark box for the big 4-16" stuff tomorrow.

Been to cold and wet from all the rain to find any wood.
Just been staying in around the stove wrapped up with a bottle of early times.

You know I agree. It's always good to have the right "tool" for the job at hand, plus a little.

LOL.
By now you know I just like to give guys a hard time. Unfortunately I have to take a lot coming back my way with all you hardcore stihl guys around .
I should probably get the 462 out and give it a spin, I've never even ran this one . Reality is I don't have much wood right now to cut over 12", but I'll still probably run them, they are fun saws.

Used some of last weeks scrounge from my buddy seasoned hedge apple and black locust. I crammed that stove full of 3 inch diameter pieces i hope it doesn't burn a hole in my firebox .
