    Well it wasn't a perfect day, but pretty close. It was 18 degrees and windy when I started out this morning. My buddy and I got a couple nice loads of red oak and white oak. Plenty more to cut :saw::dex:

    Most of the tops are 12-18" diameter...some are a little larger. Couldn't get any better than that.
    With my buddy's MS362 and my MS441, we made quite a pile in no time at all.
    Probably took longer to load it all up that to cut it :)

    Never thought to get a pic of the loads on the truck and wagon :hair:
    I'll post some pics of the pile when I get a chance.

    Yea, hydraulics are a big work/back saver. :)
    A tractor makes a great addition to the wood processing tool box :yes:
