in·fa·mous | \ ˈin-fə-məs \ Essential Meaning of infamous. 1 : well-known for being bad : known for evil acts or crimes an infamous traitor a city infamous for poverty and crime. 2 : causing people to think you are bad or evil He committed an infamous crime.

:givebeer:

pretty good sb! i like mesquite for cooking. hot searing wood. swell aroma. let it get down to red coals and toss on a thick one. that and a plate of chuck-wagon beans ~ mighty good eats.

i have 4 maybe 5 acres of the stuff! and some smitherings here n there, too.

tuff to beat something like this...

I always have to school people on how to cook with mesquite. Most don't understand that you can't just toss in raw mesquite. It's a grilling wood and must be burned down to coals before you start cooking on it.
Where is Echoville? and do you sell mesquite? I'm looking for a closer source. I know it gets cheaper the farther west and south west you go.
 
Lol my dust is 1/4” square at least. We grow big dust here in Morgan co.
I got that looooong dust🤪 could that be because of the type of cutter? Looks like I'm noodling while bucking :laughing:. The old guy who sharpens said he hasn't seen cutters like this since the late 80's. I have no clue on saw chain unless marked on the box, guessing the chain is from late 60's or early 70's

I believe that is sort of the word Pres Roosevelt used to describe the attack on Pearl Harbor. (A day that shall live in infamy!)
 
i move as much wood to the front of the bucket as possible. that gets the center of gravity over or close to the axle. then once balanced, it rolls along almost with fingertips ~
I probably will need another one for gardening this year. If I buy another one ill have to make it a dual wheel then.
 
How's come it's only the old guys posting wood pic's? :laughing:

I expect to this coming season, last year I focused on swapping the engine into my loader. That’s done now, and I’ll put more time up there this year.
 
Hey Bob you have started some pretty good threads maybe a show us your saw chips thread might be a good one:rock::chainsaw:
Lol might have to do that. Have been considering one that I kept thinking about as I read responses on the “ what saw would you grab” thread. I still enjoy reading new stuff on that!!

In my never ending quest to mod things, I took the front brace off my dually and moved it behind the wheels. ( added spacers) Then cut off the excess length of the rails it is bolted too. I’m only 6’ tall but that blasted thing caught on everything under the sun if I stood all the way up straight.
 
FS, thanks for the information. Two of my 3 wheelbarrows are True Temper.

This one was re-claimed from the dead and has my Chainsawed Shag Bark Hickory handles! The pic is a distortion, they are level.
You are a surgeon with a chainsaw sir!!

Some wood types will do that easier than others. Still has to be a sharp one tho!!!

Oh yeah I know exactly what you mean that happens to me all the time like you hit the e brake right into your gut.
