1/4” cable and a kwanzan cherry? How many honest thieves are out there today?That fork lift is sweet, looks like it's set up for moving round bales.
Hard to believe you didn't have a motor there at the house, looking at the satellite view of your place, I'm sure I seen one, but I know those pictures are old.
Curious to see what the next sat pic of our property is gonna look at. I need to have my work take a screen shot of it when I have the semi at the house, they have viewable GPS tracking on it and all the other trucks and the trailers too.
I scrounged some rocks yesterday out back when I had the little trailer out, then moved 10-12 buckets of dirt, then removed the rototiller. The little tractor backed right out of the hole in med(it has hi,med, and low gears) without spinning, I was real surprised as the big tractor likes to spin coming out if your not really moving when backing and then let off as it starts to bog down on the hill, basically you have to do it just right or you're going back into the bottom to try again in another area you didn't tear up.

I guess Costco doesn't thing anyone who has a chainsaw will be stealing their picnic table, they'd probably come back to the tree ceiling gone and the table still there lol.

Looked pretty small, probably 1/4, that would certainly be an easy one if someone wanted that table.
I can't think of the species, see them more south of here, they are native to Eastern Asia, iirc it has water in the name and they flower this time of yr. Pretty neat looking tree.
You mean thieves that would tell you they stole it if you asked lol.
First load this morning.
I know NOTHING about logging, your situation or what you're doing with the logs. But it looks like you're clear cutting an area for a purpose? Seems like some of those logs are too small do do anything with. Better to give them 10-20 years?
i hate being behind! over 50 pages here and 45 or so on another thread... sometimes i just have to let it go, and say... it just dozen matter! but just 12 pages behind mite be doable....
dozen do anything! lol ~
dozen do anything! lol ~

seems some of my things are always playing with me... keys, work gloves, glasses, etc... but goes without saying
My B7510 just has high and low, the newer models have a mid range, I can't say a time where I would have thought an in-between gear was needed, but often wonder if I had it would I like it?That fork lift is sweet, looks like it's set up for moving round bales.

No, it was a 12mm black hawk ratchet wrench that my boy stuck down the jack handle without me noticing... the darn chickens are more interested in pecking me the messing with the tools. I will say this much, I need to grab the hoe and get digging the foundation of the shop, we had a few showers that I had to quickly clean up and retreat from and I was half on the stones.Now you know where that 10mm went
Turned into a bigger project then i had wanted it to. One broken stud and the new cat outlet wasn't welded in right, so lots of messing around making that fit properly. Ended up cutting the bottom of the old cat off and welding it to the new cat. Then i noticed the muffler had a rot hole in it, went to take that apart and realized the tail pipe was shot too.... got those ordered. This all started with it needing an oil change, I needed to remove the oil filter to get the maifold/cat out, thought I had everything I needed... boy was I wrong lol.
So, related to the above post.
My wife is driving the expedition, and hates it. Says the steering is sloppy. I never noticed, guess I drive it too much and got used to it. So I'll have to check that out. It's due for inspection next month, so I have to decide if I want to jiffy up the rockers so it will pass inspection, then plan on doing inner and outer rockers after the shops up, or just keep patching it and run it into the ground. It's right at that point where I'd normally plan on getting rid of it, but I haven't seen anything newer I like. I'd love to grab an excursion but they are either garbage, or made of gold. I don't care that ford went to an independent rear suspension in the newer expeditions either, and I don't want anything gm.
