    Throw bag-line accuracy issues

    Gloves on vs gloves off can make a big difference and just another thing to switch up when frustrated. Missing what direction mostly?

    Glad AA helps many folks, not my cup of tea but everyone needs support of some kind. Coming on 6 yrs without drinking.

    Echo dcs 3500t

    It must be a saw side issue as the blower works fine in the cold and batteries have decent charge (always kept inside when not at work)

    Echo dcs 3500t

    Love the 2500....in the summer. The batteries work for shit when it's below 40degrees or so. We have them charged and inside overnight, then turn on the saw and the battery just blinks like it's dead. Same for 3 batteries. The blower seems to not have the same override but super annoying as it's...

    Today....

    Nice going! Do you have any log trucking companies that would pickup logs in the future? We're spoiled with a great outfit that rarely charges more than $300 in trucking and it helps keep their employees busy. Anything more than a few logs or if it's a longer haul and multiple trips it saves so...

    Cold and snowy climbing/ working

    All of notes above, except white pine can play fine many days but def depends on the freeze (pic is 90 deg siz swing on a pine top). Warm back up after lunch, what was perfectly fine in summer may lead to injury in cold: don't jump down from anything, don't reach in weird positions, any jerking...

    End of year purchase

    Ordered a box of nine degree double hard woodmizer bandsaw blades for the mill we got this year. Supposed to be better in frozen wood etc for some winter lumber fun. Maybe a replacement 14' dump trailer for my 10(?) yr old 12'. Probably should check in with accountant on where we are as to...

    Bid that tree!

    No raking or pick-up-sticks looks like a shorter day. What kind of vines?

    Bid that tree!

    Did a crane removal yrs ago where the crane was on a barge. It was already onsite for building a serious pier system, pretty interesting project and seriously good operator/crew

    Bid that tree!

    I did yep, and we have stopped accepting hand carry projects of any trunk/substantial volume. One payday followed by days out with back pain I've learned too often. Fool me once shame on you, fool me ahh ya can't get fooled again...

    Bid that tree!

    All hauled Heck no are we carrying by hand or cart! Tree is leaning towards house over the deck and no trees 180 to rig off, so speedline options are not great but possible. Good question, given the lack of access I said to expect some damage that's my plan, the right angle 140' dotted line...

    Bid that tree!

    Rotten pine removal ~24" 70', house side has a long old rotten crack but tree is in decent shape to climb/rig. The tape measure is laid out 8', septic line/tank/cleanout in the way so machine access is debatable with matting on the edge by stairs. Water side has a shear cliff and no trees 180...
