Definitely worth the trip-great time, people, food, and most of all great cause! Amazing how much wood can get cut and hauled out of the woods in one day. So much going on all over the place at one time but it seemed to flow smooth. Grandpatractor and WetGunPowder are great hosts!

For someone that is used to cutting tree service log piles in his yard it was a nice change of pace to get out in the woods and cut there. I'm not used to limbing or dealing with brush so I gained some more experience with that.

Beefie & JD you can cut with my CS-670 or any of my other saws at the next Interfaith event. I know they are hated with a passion down in the chainsaw forum but they have worked very well for me and I enjoy cutting with them.

JD you seem to be a sharpening guru maybe I can get some pointers on filing? I can't free hand file worth a darn, if I need it real sharp its use the Oregon clamp on filing guide or have LTG power equipment grind them for me.

Nice vids Woody! Is that Skinny Fuel in the loader? I think more might have gotten done if someone with a bit more umm, "counterweight" were running it!!!

Ripper, you ain't the only Echo owner around. I like to play with my little 280 E top handle now and then, even if it is only slightly slower than a hacksaw with a metal blade on it...Check the GTG threads, I think only one of Mark's Mini Macs was slower than that thing. It does sound good though.

Gee, think Thor's got enough HP there for a limber? :D

Well, considering Thor was the Germanic red-haired and bearded god of thunder, maybe he'd pick a gazillion cc saw to trim. Hey, wait a minute. Germanic, red haired and bearded? That's ME! Time to pick up a 7900 of my own. :hmm3grin2orange: :hmm3grin2orange: :hmm3grin2orange:

Still aint figured out where the red hair came from. Any chance you was around these parts in JAN 1989??????

Actually, no! Whew! Glad to have dodged that bullet. I've got enough ex wives and enough kids as it is! I was up at 10,000 feet in Colorado working for a gold mine. Truly. :)

But my red hair was a compete accident in my whole extended family as well. My mom eventually settled on a comment whenever anyone remarked about my blazing red hair (yeah, yeah, I know, we're talking about 40 years ago here).

She'd say it came from the milkman.

I never knew what that meant until much later. Milkmans are good people. :biggrinbounce2:

Looked like alot of fun and a beautiful day to top it off!
 
your pictures makes me wish I could afford to have bean there and meat people that no this stuff around hear their isnt any just farmers that think their saw is broken cause it wont cut after cutting fire wood for 2 years without a sharpen or cleanup
 
Thank you from interfaith caregivers

Got a card from Denny with Interfaith Caregivers this week-he wanted me to relay it you guys..... Dear Boyd, Thank you so much for pulling everything together on Saturday April 17th. What a great bunch of people! What you and your group have done for Interfaith Caregivers will have a positive and lasting impact on the health and safety of many people in Burnett County. I personally and Interfaith Caregivers are very grateful for your donation of firewood,money,food,time ,and energy. Like you said at the worksite, we are blessed to have come in contact with a great bunch of folks who like to cut firewood! Please thank everyone again for us for a wonderful effort.Take care and we hope to see you soon. Denny :clap:
 
Thanks for posting that Boyd. How is Denny doing on that log pile we left for him. I hope there hasn't been any theft of the wood.

Beefie
