    Pic doesn't show much depth, but stacked wood is 3 rows deep, and lots to be split behind splitter. I am normally finished up by this time of year, but most of this wood has been cut for a year or better and will burn real good. Most of this ash was dead, or close to it when I cut it, due to the EAB.

    Another kill with the 550. These are fantastic saws, mine is pulling 3/8 Carlton full chisel. Tree is about 30 at the flare, about 22-24 where I cut it. 16" bar, just cause. Finished it up with my 372XPW.
    Pics don't show the length, but was a pretty decent sized tree.

    Thanks fellas. Still not finished with the last tree, I am going to try and finish it up later in the week. Got the big stuff out of the way. I have more fun with the 12"> stuff, faster to work with, easier to split, and easier to load.
    Most of that tree was 18-20", made for some fun cutting with the 372.

    I could have used that tree to test run this saw in I finished up yesterday. :doh:

    I was testing in 17"-18" I had out back. Owner runs 42" and 24" I ran his 24" and then put on my 16" for fun. :cheers: husky2100 001.JPG husky2100 002.JPG

    I have turned this thread into my random cutting/carving/whatever thread. Hope you all like my "stuff". I know I don't post here much, or on AS at all.. Just more of a reader these days.

    I showed this to my wife, who's from Detroit. She said that maybe if it were a Michigan "M," she'd be excited. She did like the little football at the bottom.

    I don't think my wife will view that as an improvement.

    I-O !

    Thanks bro, someone that wasn't able to snatch up my last one in time, put an order in for this one. I just got around to it, been trying to take care of other stuff, but should have a little more free time soon.
