Yellowbeard
ArboristSite Operative
I finally got to the biggest log the mailman gave me last summer. It's been sitting in the back yard of a friend's house for a year (they were ready to get rid of it, though, to be honest, they never use their back yard).
Thought I would share some images. I'll also link to some videos below. Some pictures of the Yellowbeard Auto-Oiler Mark-I in there plus the obligatory nail that was in the dead center of the tree. The Oiler has since been painted Stihl Orange. One of the videos shows the drip speed I have the auto-oiler set at and another shows the chain tension (it's damn hard to get the chain tensioned on 5 feet of bar). Would love advice about both (drip speed and tension). I think the tension was too low but things worked ok.
