I looked up sycamore trees there's some monster ones that it takes 4 or 5 people or more hand to hand for the circumference. That really surprised me.
No wonder you don't get good gas mileage.See you don't want to forget it.
I have a good sized tool box in my Excursion, behind it is 2 floor jacks, 25' jumper cables, 4-way, tow strap, extra bars for various saws, big shot(large slingshot device to shoot throw bags/line into trees, to the left is a pry bar, pipe to fit over wrenches/ratchets, jack handles, zip straps,flexible securement dealy, and an assortment of other things one might possibly need. That's just the left lower 1/4 of the back.
I see no problem bringing a small tool box, or two, or even three. But I'm still gonna razz you about it
.
Pretty sure I posted these before, but here you go. This is what it should look like, but I also have a pile of ratchet straps.

I had to put coil spring helpers in the rear of my crv for all the weight I carry daily.
There was an historic Sycamore tree in White Plains that George Washington used to tie his horse to.
They had to remove it because it was uprooting his old headquarters in White Plains ... was just too close to the structure and getting too big, so one of them had to go!

I have some 4' or greater diameter maples on our one property I wonder how old they are
The larger of the two was around 30"+. My 28" bar couldn't cut through it at the base. When I go back to get the rest I'll get a pic. I also have to drop a huge, but mostly rotten(I think) Maple. My 084 carries a 36" bar and I know that isn't big enough. I'll probably cut that in chunks and pile it up either near their burn pile or in the wood line.

I knew it I knew I knew it!!!
Do spark plug wire just pull out of the coil? And push back in? Need to replace one
There is a white oak on my place that the wife and two kids can’t reach around.
Yes. Supposed to anyway, sometimes they’ll get stuck.
Thank you sir!
Zacchaeus climbed a Sycamore to see Jesus....not really sure if he actually saw him or was just exclaiming how big the tree was! Lol.

When I was scrounging pallets for the local company, she told me "DO NOT" bring in any Blue Chep pallets. They lease theirs, and she could not reuse them. I think they had a big Canadian factory that supplied a lot of the US. She said the average life span of the average Oak, Beech, Maple pallets was 7 years, and sold for about $13-$15 new. She sold her remanufactured pallets for $7. I think she said, at the time, Chep got $25 or $35 apiece for theirs. But, if you had a lease with them, and a pallet failed, they just gave you a new one. Chep pallets are made much heavier than a standard US pallet, but are often made of Spruce, Pine, Fir.
Anyone run the echo cs 310? An old guy I know is looking at buying one
MD has a late 2 day deer season, it's this Friday and Saturday. I didn't even get my MD license this year. Got one little buck in WV and was happy with that. Last week I was cutting firewood on a farmer friends place and saw a ginormous buck. I've got to call her tomorrow and see if I can hunt Friday. I might wind up getting my first senior license, on the last day of season.
