    Had a little time this afternoon so I went and worked on the log pile. I got all the hemlock and pine logs from the G2G bucked. Had my little helper out there and she was loving it! Only bad part is I had the gas cap on the 026 come loose (not a flippy cap) and I spilled a whole tank down my leg. But still had a good time. image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg

    Don't know why... but I always loved the look of rounds like that, in the fall. Maybe cause they mean... heat. Looks great Sean. I see you had a helper and made her wear her PPE gear... :saw:... ;)... :D

    Oh yeah... no smokin' if yer gonna take showers in 87 low lead... :whistle:

    Sean, I've did that with the gas cap before. Not good. Then today I found a whole bunch of oil in my atv. I usually keep the small saw on the front and it was leaking oil. I was amazed that the cap was super loose. I used it just two days ago and it was fine. Go figure...

    Had that happen on my 044 once. After that I always snug it down with the scrench, or since I "misplaced" that thing, just an old screwdriver in the door of the truck!
