Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

He's nice. Mrs. FS was just talking about moving to Montana last evening. She looked at me funny when I mentioned raising dental floss. .

I just had to do it. For any youngsters who don't get the reference:

The x27 split the red oak like butter. I did find a red oak suitable for the 43" bar

Your garden cart is like mine. I bent the tongue at the front of the bed with too much weight. Pounded it straight and bolted unistrut to each side. Couldn't find similar channel to make a new one.

I noticed it said 200# max load. It definitely had over 200# in it. I'm working on another one I have that I plan on beefing up.

I'd been filling higher than this with Red Oak before it bent.

Don’t make me get my ported saws out KK lol

Do it man .

Wow the husky guys are getting really uppity.

You're killing me, it's crazy all the stihlheads around , we gotta say something every now and then. I especially like to say something to anyone who proclaims "their brand" to be the only one.
I like saws, preferably with spring AV.

 

[Brufab]

"their brand"

Mine is 100% American

Do it man

Can they handle it?

Unless he's good at field aging deer, remembers seeing him last year, or has trail cam pictures of that buck from last year? Probably not.

I'm not sure the apostrophe in "he's" is necessary? It may make it plural instead of possessive! Wait! Maybe its an abbreviation!

@Hermio !!!!!! Where you at?!

KK, that's appropriate use of an apostrophe. The apostrophe between "he" and "s" is for a contraction, as the long form would be "he is." You're also right that an apostrophe can also be used on a possessive noun.

Not to nitpick, but in your second paragraph, you should've added an apostrophe in "its," as that's also a contraction. Now if the "its" is a pronoun and it has possessiveness, the use of the apostrophe wouldn't be correct...i.e. "the dog buried its bone."

I'm going to stop trying to sound smart, my grades were near the 10th percentile in my HS graduating class and I never finished college...an English teacher can probably poke holes through a lot of the stuff I type.

So could my kids, and my boy didn't start reading til he was 9 . You should see them when I'm texting, dad, that's, this, and you need this there, and that shouldn't be there, it's not a question why's there a question mark . It's a text, not a textbook guys lol. It's almost like arguing with spell check on my computer .
I certainly know way more now than I did coming out of high-school about grammar, but I'm not sure it adds much to my quality of life .
Hope all that was proper .

 

[Kodiak Kid]

Got that right!!

All in good fun.
I have a pile Stihl saws too, I only keep the huskies around for when I want to cut something......

Yeah, mean I get it . Thats why you keep your Huskies in the silverware drawer and one by the butter dish hu? Fir cutting something right? When you actually need to "saw" something like a log or even a real tree. You grab a STIHL. I get it! Good on ya!

It was a rhetorical question Sierra R
But hey thanks!

I started hauling logs home to process in 2023. 4 loads of logs that I set on scrap logs and 1 load of smaller stuff that I cut to 32" to go into the OWB in a couple of weeks. Ash is pretty dry but I let this small stuff air dry in my firewood crates for a few weeks. I don't split this smaller stuff just chuck it in to "use it up. No pics of it cut up but my wife did fill a bin while she was waiting for me to finish unloading logs. Grandkids were riding dirt bikes and E bikes on the track.

I was thinkin about getting a husky. Then I woke up and realized it was a nightmare.

Right, all the better for sawing butter and other tough stuff that Stihls can't handle......

Huskys, dolmars, jreds for the nice clean hardwoods, stihls for the dirty nasty softwoods . I'll run any of them, but I still prefer the huskys, especially for limbing and falling, but a guys gotta do what he's gotta do so.
