    Thanks for the link DaveGunter. I never laughed so hard this early in the morning. The motorcycle pic is the best one. You have 6 small rounds on the back with a whole pile in the background. Classic!!

    Well Wood-A-Holic now, but the way how I continue to collect? I'll be able to stack and dry to the point where my 8,800 square foot lot becomes a local lumber or firewood station. The way the sun hits my property in the summer plus the wind, firewood is bound to season quickly.

    Well guys I know this will sound wierd, but I went to see the surgeon about the hernia....he said he was 90% sure I didn't have one...talk about a waste if my time, I still don't know what to think about the whole ordeal!!!

    Any way I am back at it....my dad had a big maple tree brake half way off...I went over there after work today to cut it up....I used my 461 with 25" bar and RM chain as there was some nasty stuff in the tree....

    Here is me dropping her...

    Here's a good addition the the piles. Hope to cut to length today after work and split in the next week or two. Been real busy but this was too good to pass up. I was hauling yard stuff to the tree /grass dump and drove by a friends house who was dropping three or four trees. He heats with wood but I messaged him anyways. Said I was feeling kind so offered to help him get rid of all the large stuff but would sure let him keep all the branches and twigs for kindling....
    He said, come get it. So grabbed my cutting buddy, an old dump truck, and a T190 with a grapple and hauled three loads to our wood yard. [​IMG]

    Z-man Welcome to the site. What does you lineup of Stihl saws consist of? What do you have for a wood burner. Inquiring minds want to know:thumbs:
    We love pics.
