    Right around the corner.
    Only got the two loads, partly because the flashers were enough to croak the battery.
    Luckily, it was right around the corner.

    And thanks again Secret Santa 2020, whoever you are.
    The tongs were nearly as important as the saw.

    Nice grab there Mike. :thumbs: I wouldve been all over that like flies on, well you get the idea! :emb:
    Tongs are a life saver. Ive killed the battery with the flashers running too long as well.

    And not mentioned, but the hearing protection is primo! I don’t see you follow the chainsaw pics thread, but so you know that pair is in every pic on purpose. Thanks Again MikeInMa

    Two more loads this afternoon, this time with my buZZsaw BRAD battery saver.

    I think it turned out be just about a cord.

    Had a family of scroungers hot on my heals as I was finishing the second load. There’s still a good amount for them to grab too.

    It’s a treat when it’s on the road side within whistling distance. I’ve got other options for hoarding.

    Having said that, a weekend beater would be welcomed.

    In the background of your last picture, there's 2 trees looking like they are soon to be candidates to be felled. What species might they be ?
