    Ever cut or see an Australian Buloke tree? I've read they're very very hard.

    But down under, it runs the wrong way, so it's OK.

    Nah, iron wood is a bit far from my area.

    Most of what I cut is Eucalyptus and I'm no tree watcher but I think mostly yellow box which has a hardness rating of about 3000 which is on the
    very high side but not anywhere near as high as iron wood.

    I don't have allot to compare it to but pine feels like cutting butter comparatively

    Our chains also turn the other way its known as the coriolis effect and can make bucking a challenge.

    If you're bucking from the bottom up it all aught to even out.

    Nice pics!

    Looked at them a little closer and decided that had to be in the northeast NV area. Your profile says NV but no town.

    I live in Elko if you want to go cut some time.

    Ash tree I took down yesterday. The truck is not quite loaded. The logs were taken out whole by someone else.

    Pleasure chatting. Take care of western NV.

    Since entering into truck ownership a few months ago, my wife decided we/I could take a turn or several at emptying the bottle donations box:doh:, that's $173.45 worth of bottles and cans, in case you were wondering. The $ goes to my daughters HS music program.
