    No, sleep escapes me and only comes in fits.

    As for the chains, I have always just chained the front as it seems with rear chains too, it causes the skidder to rear up more and break rear axles. I am not 100% sure that is true, as spinning tires is not exactly easy on a skidder either.

    I need a Tracked Skidder!

    Falling fast .
    Got the stove going again around 3PM and I just got the room above the set point in time to keep the boiler from turning on.
    Between the overnight warm and some solar gain today the house never got below 68ºF.

    Burning some 3 year red oak.

    I'm actually running one those mixers right now, different brand though. Not being used for sludge and lime, but ash and lime.

    Pretty much all of the cake outta the plant go's to a massive sheep farm bill.:yes: Every bug that will get someone sick is dead by then but your right with the metal problem.

    Have never seen them actually spreading it on the fields but its a timing thing with the machinery.

    Government tells them whats what.:whistle::yes: Gotta test for e-coli everyday but thats just a given now..:zip:
