    I haven't had much time to cut wood this week. I went out today and had just started up the Skid Steer when my grandson showed up. I asked him what was the occasion he came by. He pointed to the stack of logs. He got about 3/4 of the stack reduced to rounds before we ran out of bar oil and gas. We then went to splitting.

    I don't want to sound like a duck but maybe some safety gear might the way to go?

    Very nice! A lot of people his age would rather be doing something else.

    Good Grandson! But honestly Grandpa, How could you ever run out of fuel and bar oil?

    Not sounding like a duck at all. I retired from a company that was very high on safety. It is time to put some gear in place. Thank you for pointing it out.
    Wasn't planning on an all day cutting. Grandpa doesn't work that fast any more. Fuel is only a 15 minute round trip away. Bar oil would be a hour round trip.
