    Gorgeous! I hoarded a little this morning. I’ll get some pics next time I’m out there as I didn’t get the entire tree.

    That tongue is what I’d worry about! That’s cool how the end can come out for those long slabs! Bet you get a lot of looks with a load like that:thumbs:

    I never know what type of wood I might find and the trailer is adaptable for that, the tongue should be fine I reinforced it with a full length 2" x 2" 3/16th wall thickness tubing.

    Well, I had a total up this morning and I guess I have nearly 8 cord CSS which is three years supply for me.
    Spent some time cutting this last week, that's a 44 inch bar on the 084, 36 inch on the Treemonkey 066 and a 28 inch on the XS500i. Very large and extremely heavy/hard Eucluptus that has been down for 13 years:

    Heres my Stash:
    2.5 Cord split and stacked this week, more to go yet:

    3 cord stacked here which has been drying for a year:

    And another 2 cord stacked here at home ready for next winter. This wood has been cut, split and stacked for 2 years, just transferred it to undercover here at home this past week:

    Some serious wood and some serious saws. Nice work! Wanna sell the 500i? Still waiting around here.

    The 500i is a keeper sorry Brad, Kevin's huskihl sausages have a particular flavour which I enjoy. Funnily enough, the 500i has been available off the shelf here in NZ since November 2019!

    Nice work on all that wood.
    Oh yes, I totally agree about the XS saws. Kevin has done 2 for us. I still have a ms461 to send him in the future.
    buZZsaw BRAD needs to send him that ms261...it really will be ...run, forest, run...:saw::saw::tree::dex:

    Congratulations! Good looking wood for having been down for that long:bug: Mist be pretty Roy resistant. Sounds like you have the perfect tools for breaking down that big stuff. Nice work:thumbs:

    Thanks for the kind words guys. I'd far prefer to be working on saws and cutting wood in my spare time than anything else!
