Saw bucks, Tools, etc. For helping process firewood.

Chains, ropes, a come-along, and either my 19 year old nephew or 16 year old nephew. I actually prefer the younger one, he doesn't think he knows it all already so he'll listen to instructions with out me having to raise my voice. The older one, good lord, one day Im gonna break him or my fist. But he has alot more strength than the younger one, so sometimes he is better to have around. He's 6'4" 215 of teenage muscle, comes in handy sometimes.

 

Some of those kobalt tools have a lifetime warranty, does the hatchet?

 

Must be hit or miss because I couldn't find my 10" linesman pliers and bought the Kobalt one till I found my normal pair and as a backup. The Kobalt pliers literally didn't last a day. The next time I bought a pair of Channel Locks and the old pliers are the backup now.

 

1975 JD 110 w/10 HP Kohler.Built like a tank,last model & heaviest of that series @775lbs without mower deck.Plenty of power but can lack traction on these steep slopes when its muddy or wet.I know where all the stumps/ruts are so no need to remove it.Besides its a real PITA & definitely a 2 man job to reinstall it.When there's more than 2-3 inches of snow or ground is extra soft & muddy,it stays in garage & I wait for when its drier or ground freezes solid.That's why I go like mad to get as much done during summer/fall during hot/dry spells.I'll eventually get rear chains for it,but it works pretty good without it most of the time.

 

If the photo shows up........

snow chains are a must when you like to abuse garden tractors like I do : )

 

My four wheeler, well I kinda killed it. So good old Honda mower got called into duty.

 

You got a lot of weight and that little bugger

 

I keep my chains on year round on the old MTD 42" and the snow blade. Took the deck off and just use it for pushing snow or wood in the fire pit. It really does the job when burning a lot of brush and rolling big rounds around.

I actually have all the seams welded on the trailer and have gusseted it in several key areas, a millermatic is a beautiful thing.

 

Just picked up my hay hook from TSC. Like you said Rock, extra long, needs sharpened and the angle changed a little and I can't wait to use it on big rounds.

 

When I first sharpened mine real nice n pointy ,it bent, so, I hardened the tip, just heated it and stuck it in the water , no more bending

 

Thanks for that tip Rock

 

My two biggest back savers have been the stack of pallets splitter table and the conveyor plank.

 

Great splitter setup and that plank is really sweet

 

yep you can roll some big logs with cant hook.
They are not easy to find on Craigslist so I put an ad wanted on there got a hit, and pick up a wood handle one for 40 bucks
