    Hard to tell from the pictures but 5 more dead ash down today. Small diameter but very tall and straight. Small enough for the 362 with a 16". I'll finish bucking tomorrow and drop another 5.

    I don't usually do tree work on Saturday but my wife is in a training class all day tomorrow sooooo while the cat is away!:saw::whistle:

    It's home and running. I changed the oil 3 more times after I got it home just to be safe.

    The ash will have to sit up thete on the hill for a while. The ground is still to wet to get my truck up. I can't get to it by truck from my house. I have to go to the horse farm next door and come through one of their paddocks that has a gate to my place. The boss is particular about his paddocks, he doesn't like tire tracks and mud churned up. Go figure!:D

    I'd call that near perfect size. Easy to handle yet each round yields a bit of wood. Cant wait till mud season clears up round here so I can get back to cutting.
