Hey gang, I got a score this weekend that promised some Cherry well, got more than I bargained for, some folks clearing out for a horse pasture and it was "LOADED" with all varietys of goodies. I was first on scene and I had to share with some of the other local "VOLTURES"… But it worked out and there is plenty. Got some Cherry, Ash, Red oak, Sasafrass, Hackberry, Sweet gum, something I haven't identified yet and…….. Mulberry Oh, I used my new 170, only for the small stuff, what a sweetie! Should have bought one awhile back. Got about 1-1/2 cord for the day.
Wow, Dave! Talk about a nice mix of wood! Kinda like one of those assorted boxes of salt water taffy down on the boardwalk! Going to get any more?
Yup, there is about 4 out of 10 acres that need to be cleared. It's all over growth, it was a dairy farm in the 40's and 50's and was just let go. There is about 4 others cutting and we sort of made a gentlemans agreement of our hoard and who gets what… We'll see how that goes
Wow Dave, that's a nice haul. How many trips? Doesn't look even a little bit like ketchup though. SOMEBODY's bound to say something......might as well be me.
Nice score you got yourself there. You finally got yourself some of that fine Mulberry, huh? Good for you.
Dave, good score. I think that heinz 57 will go with the cheesesteaks that will be worth eating after all that work. Nice pics!
Dave, the pile in the direct front of the house was 3 trips in my truck, only have the 6ft bed… It's Ok, met some good folks and had a few…..
Yes Chvy, I finally found some Mulberry… Thanks to you, I now know what it looks like and split a piece that you gave me to match it!
Great score dave! Hopefully everyone holds up to the agreement . Liking that little 170 huh? I've got a 180 and use it alot for limbing and cutting up the smaller logs.
Yes, I love that little 170… I can't believe the power it has for a little squirt… The owners only let 4 of us on the land to cut, and I know two of them. Their good guy's but we didn't know the other 2, they were friends of the owners. Should work out Ok, I don't look a gift horse in the mouth…. I'm happy to get what I can
I got to tell ya Pete, It's more saw than I expected…. Went through the 6" to 8" stuff with out a hiccup…. I didn't push it passed that though.
Sounds like a sweet set-up !! Hope it keeps working out P.S. I am a huge fan of the 170 and 180 . My 180 is so handy..that it comes along more times than not now !! Mine has a 14 inch bar...but would handle the 16 inch just fine
