    IMG_2301.JPG IMG_2302.JPG IMG_2303.JPG Been plugging away when I can. Haven't had as much free time as I had hoped. Today is 90 degrees, 32% humidity according to weather ap on my phone, with a steady 10-15 mph breeze. Great weather for drying out the firewood! Been cutting for 4.5 hours now but it's time to move some logs around and deal with a big dead oak I cut in moms Woods last night...basically keep working but get out of the sun.

    IMG_2325.JPG IMG_2326.JPG Thankful for the log lift right about now. I'm in the middle of a lot of big rounds that require no more back breaking. Have this pile up to 30 feet long so far.

    We split vertical too. Maybe weld a plate and the pipe next to cylinder.

    Very impressive !
    What size is the Echo? Looks like your pulling a 24" bar on it.

    80cc and yes it's a 24" bar. It's the smallest my shop wanted to put on it. They said it would rip and I said good. Haha

    80CC with a 2' bar is a nice combo. Nice bit of work you're getting done there jrider . Don't envy you in the heat though.
