    Nothing wrong with an Echo, or a Stihl, a saw is a saw. Of course pictures are always welcome of them.:rofl: :lol::ithappened:

    I see the wj too. We had one of those, but memories of the wj were not any near as good as the zj.

    Thanks guys! I have been dreaming about this for a looooong time, but all the work you see has only taken place over the last 3 weeks. That is when I discovered my honey hole, scored the Stihl pa80 maul for $30 (STEAL!), and already had the saw and pallets. I have been hitting the wood hoarding gym hard! The messy pic was earlier today, I bucked and stacked all that already. Tomorrow have two Jeep loads of rounds to haul back, and if yinz want I can take pics of that too. I like taking pics :D This is my wittle Bruno, I hear dog pics are mandatory... I have plenty of doggies to take pics of!

    Well, I really love that WJ because it is an Overland edition. Oooo CJs are sweet too! It is hard to go wrong with any kind of Jeep!

    Had one of those too. Did a frame on resto of an 85 4.2 manual soft top. Nice rig, but not as nice as my 93 limited zj 4.0 aw4 with a BB lift for every occasion.

    I also spent a lot of time in an 01 wrangler 4.0 sport 5spd. Again, it could do a lot, but it had far more limitations for use vs the zj.

    Nice setup, I like that you are getting it dun with what works for you. Like that hockey stick that is holding up the hatch?! :p

    Dog - check
    Saw - check
    Maul - check (oh, please allow me to give you your first "you suck" for scoring that Stihl maul for $30!)
    Wood stacks - check

    Yep, you'll fit in. Welcome to FHC, you are home now.
