Grew up in Oregon in a family that was mostly all sawmill workers or timber fallers. Started splitting and stacking when I was 9-10 years old. Dad...
It's easy where I live, no oak so that's that any standing dead softwoods can be burned as soon as I get it home. Green pine is a 1 year seasoning...
Elm is pretty much the only hardwood that is readily available here where I live. It's hard to split and it stinks. But once dried out it does...
Lots of guys in my area use the ms170 as their fence building saw on the cattle ranch. Very handy for trimming posts and cutting tree limbs for...
Nice score. These are my favorite Stihl. Very hard to find the 044/046 -064 066 models in well cared for condition here where I live. They got...

My two cents might only be worth two cents, but make sure those big cutting spikes are tight. The leverage they have tends to make fasteners...

Wow! Looks like there was almost a log truck load of ponderosa, FREE . Don't be afraid to noodle those rounds, much less work than a heavy...
That Chevy will haul wood just fine. I agree on getting those running boards off of it. And ya 4x4 is always better than putting tire chains on a...
No haven't done any cutting with the Stihl and have cut seven or eight rounds with the 455. It's wildland fire season here in oregon, we have...
I have burned some Aspen from time to time, it's ok stuff. I'm not sure what the btu content is but I will take Aspen over white fir.
The poulan pro 455 is the same as a pioneer p45 I think. I'm not complaining I paid 125$ for it at a yardsale, comp seemed great and it has an...
Yep 461 or 372xt husky unless you want the new new stuff. I'm not sure if the 462 Stihl and the 572xp husky are available yet.
Poulan pro 455 with 28 inch Oregon bar, yardsale find and after my great friend Mike did a carb rebuild it now runs great. Stihl ms362 non...
