I run a 5' on my tractor, 28 hp on the pto, and it doesn't work hard at all, but I am not mowing thick stuff. 6' should be fine unless you get...
I know I may be different than a lot of people, but I am a believer to run these small engines at full throttle, as long as the goveners are...
Ya, I assumed it was a Stihl, but there must be a story behind it why it has Ryobi stickers on it?
Yes, what is that Ryobi? It is really a Stihl right? And how do you like the shorter bar on that makita? I have been thinking of getting a 13" bar...
The black ash I have on my property (well I believe it is black ash) has more loose and shaggy bark than white ash, and it has larger growth rings...
I am also a believer in chains and loaded tires, I don't have chains on my current tractor yet that is 4wd, and it won't go anywhere that I use to...
Backwoods savage, Winter hasn't ended here yet, lots of snow here yet, probably still 3'- 4' in the woods, we have had some melting in the last...
It is good to know your comfort zone, especially when you are on your own. Looks like there is lots more around to get anyway.
You always have great photos dancan, nice looking pair of stihl saws as well. I am surprised at how little snow you have there, we still have 4 ft...
Beautiful property and old farmyard, you always have great pictures posted.
Nice set up Slocum, how does the tractor make out with the duo grip chains on it?
I have an ash I look at all the time in the 30"-40" range, it is dropping some branches, but it probably wouldn't make lumber as it has large...
Looks like a great day to be out playing with tractors and saws in the woods.
In my experience 75% of the time when a block heater isn't working it is the cord that is bad, and the element is alright. And I am a strong...
I love the old fisher stoves, there is a grandma bear in my mothers garage not hooked up, she still has the fireplace screen for the front of it...
I had one of them we put in a 8x20 mobile camp built on hay wagon running gear. Never knew it was coal burning as well, never had the grates in...
I have copper anti-seize that is meant for high temperature applications that I use on manifold bolts on engines, that should stand up to the wood...
Looks like a nicely thinned wood lot, great pictures you have of it and your tractor at work.
Love the old tractor, makes me miss my old Massey 135, that's a Ford you have right?
Those stihl chains are good chains!
