Naw I was wrapping up a job when the tip went out on my good bar. Went out to the truck to find that i hadn't replaced the tip on my back up bar. It was pinched pretty tight but I had to run it. Even though she smoked a lot she held on for the day. I slung the saw up on my shoulder once as habit between trees. My gloves saved my hand. I carried it jungle style for the rest of the day.
I'm going to cautiously ask for an explanation for " Jungle Style."
Curiosity is getting the better of me: Please Explain.
fatties are fun...
Is it bad that these are just kind a ho hum these days? Could be just that the LO had taken all the fun out of this job... anyway a vid fer yer enjoyment.

Any time I see a guy carrying a saw in the jungle this is what it looks like.

That's what she said.
There's them guys that hand on to the top handle and sling it over their back, bar pointing down... looks uncomfortable to me though. That and it seems like I've only seen short bars do that.
Could you imagine having to ride that 1106 all day?

My wife says to me last night at my son's baseball game we should sit by him in the dugout. I said "and stare into the sun?" I'm in it all day."
"No you're not,"she says,"you're in the woods."
Yeah for a minute or two while I'm throwing one into the gap.

Those fir look like a lot of fun. Those alder seem about like the ash I was cutting today. Barely worth the time. They have a decent market for those though right? If they're good enough?

Yeah it's paying just as good as export fir and I can cut them in 16's or 20's is the preferred lengths with the mill paying the same as 40's. A few of the butts were up around 32" and 36" so there's some footage there most are 120 to 140 tall.

Even your short wood is taller then my tall wood. This one was from the job I wrapped up on Tuesday. The entire job was above average for height. This one had 72' to a 10" top.

It's hard to believe but some higher end kitchen cabinets are built out of that wood we consider a nuisance .So it does sell . Stuff grows like weeds along with maple around my place .Does not even make very good firewood in my opinion .

My view from the truck next to the woods today. The Horicon Marsh. It's about 32,000 acres.
Is that near Beaver Dam? Ron
