Moving the Goal Post

Title means nothing, just something one of my kids just said while I was thinking of a title.
Anyway, found a break in the work list today and tried something I’ve been wanting to.
Had fun and will certainly do it some more.

 

Fancy lookin firewood!

Not bad for your first attempt

 

you gonna plunge cut the top to get the guts out?

 

I couldn't make a straight cut if you paid me to - or you asked me to make a deliberate roundish shape . That is cool.

 

Nice work. Makes me want to drop an Aspen tree and try it.

Paging Scotty Overkill to the lobby.

 

i think it was something that Scotty Overkill posted a while back that put the thought in my head.
Learned some things from this one, which was part of goal.

may make time today to try it again.

maybe use a T handle saw

 

Yes, he made his different heights.

Ears of corn too if I recall.

 

Pretty neat! I unfortunately don't have artistic vision.

 

I like the shape of yours. A light spray paint of colour and it would look great.

 

It could be painted. Or maybe, a light toasting with a torch. If the toasting looks like crap, it can always be painted over.

 

Took a ride to TS
Had some black already
Grabbed some Kubota Orange
And some Drab Olive Camo

 

Is that late corn or corn that is late ?

 

It’s a week or two late
Silage, it’ll be ready when it’s time to cut it, which could November.
It’ll be 11’ by Labor Day

 

"knee high by fourth of july" used to be a thing but probably not any more with all the genetics of the last few decades.All the silage fields that are left around here have been converted to timothy grass or similar. There's a few beef cattle around but milk industry has dried up around here.

 

That’s a great looking Persimmon! Jk Nice pumpkin. Time to get some carving bars.

 

Same rule up here. This year it’s actually well above knee high
