After I throw the first piece in I'll be okay. I won't be driving through the woods for a bit.Too nice to haul wood in!
You must have missed the newest report based on Israelis vacs records, we've now hit 97% effective .The vaccine is proven effective at reducing serious illness and death. You can still catch the lurgy, but much less that do get seriously ill. It's not yet strongly evidenced but it appears to reduce transmission also, which makes sense as it reduces viral load. Lower transmission and less serious illness combine to rapidly mean we are no longer at risk of overloading the health service and we can lift our various social restrictions and return to normality.
Seems kind of insensitive to those who have had issues.I don’t know guys. Maybe this vaccine thing was a mistake. Not feeling so good this afternoon.
Is my skin supposed to be this color?

What's in it for a powerplant?? I've never been much of a Ford guy, but I'm starting to look at used trucks and all of the big three will be considered.Here's the new scrounging tool. Mrs FS wanted a new car. I was going for fuel one day and told her to ride along and we would stop at the dealer and look around. After riding in my old truck she thought I needed a new one.
Plain Jane F 250. Hopefully give me more trailer pulling power than the F150.

It has the 6.2 gas.. I know I won't be getting 20 mpg like the F150. Need the power for hauling big loads in the dump trailer. If your looking I'd look at Ford's or Chebys. Ive hauled 40-50 loads a year for the last 11 years in the 150.What's in it for a powerplant??

Love all the engineering in this echo besides the carb adjustment. Regular flathead just pops/vibrates out. Anyone got a carb adjustment tool they’d recommend??Farmer Steve! We need firewood content, and fast!
6 speed Mike. 3.73 rear. The tranny is a automatic wirh a manual feature. You can put it in manual mode and shift through the gears with the push of a button.That is about 375 ci, embarrassed to say I don't know anything about it! Guess they never put it in a Stang!
Good luck with your truck. How many speed does the tranny have? Lot of gears seem to make the new small engines look good!
I just checked with a logger/buyer about a cherry log I have. It's 25" on small end x 9' long; about 250 bdf. He said cherry is going for about $500/M making my log worth $125. That's not much more than firewood value.
If the tensioner works well, just the guts are worth that. Having a helmet that adjusts quickly is a great selling point to me, much like side tensioners lol.Inexpensive Climbing Style Helmet
Saw this today at a trade show: under $30 (ignore show special price). ‘Jackson’ is an established manufacturer of PPE. Their website also shows ear muffs and face screens available if you dig a little (cost?).
Never tried it, and not saying it is as good as the well known brands. But for someone interested in this style of helmet that does not want to pay $100+, it might be something to check out.

Many of the name brand 'forestry helmets' are just the $12 'hard hats' with ear muffs and face screens attached. So having an affordable 'climbing-style' helmet, with a ratchet suspension, sounds like it could be a good option for a lot of folks. I am not a climber, but like how the one I have does not get tangled, or knocked off, in thick brush.If the tensioner works well, just the guts are worth that.
