What are good headers to install for a upgrade? For future reference

 

FIL had a oak tree taken down and told me to come and take the wood . Gotta sharpen my chainsaw chain and file the rakers down before I do. Mix some fuel up too . I got no problem doing the work for free firewood.. gonna also buy a splitter. Already got a bunch of logs to split as it is

 

I'm still stock but I've heard of people with the 4 cylinder using the Doug Thorley header. IDK about V6 though.

I have a HUGE beech tree I have to get cut down soon. Already got one quote of $900..and trying to find out whose side it is on. I'm doing it regardless b/c a huge limb fell off 2 years ago and fucked up the bed of my truck.

 

Can get some good lumber from those . Firewood too.
My neighbor finally got rid of a huge silver maple that I was worried about that was hanging near my house.

Edit: he asked if I wanted the reasonable sized limbs as the trunk was about 4’ and just too big to work with, that he could have them lower them onto my land , but his wife wasn’t aware and that they just hauled it away . Oh well. There’s more where that came from

 

Yeah the guy on the other side of me has a wood stove and I always give him first shot at the wood. He'll be digging it.

 

Smart move . If your physically capable. Do it

 

Plus he's semi-retired, gives him something to do

 

I would suggest renting a log splitter from sunbelt rentals. If you reserve it for a Friday rental it's due back next business day. If you get it a Friday before a Monday holiday you get 3 days for $100. Get all your logs done at once.

 

How’s everyone’s Sunday so far

 

Today was pretty relaxed for me. Just took a nice Sunday drive

 

Very relaxed Sunday for me. Didn't do much as I worked some long shifts the past 3 days down in CT so today is recovery day from that.

 

Didn't leave the house

 

Nice! I went to bed early and came to work for midnight. Starting my 4 nights on today

 

I started at midnight too!

 

hows everything rob

 

Good man how are you?

Look and see what I had to unload. Take a guess!

 

BTW guys I forgot to mention, this weekend was my sons pinewood derby. He got 1st place in his den and 1st place overall in the entire pack!

 

mmmm looks like ammo to me

that’s awesome!! Wait until the baking competition- he’ll blow them all away with that one too! I still have a pinewood derby car my bro made for me when he was a kid, modeled it after my football jersey with colors and numbers

 

Bingo! 13 pallets, almost 22,000 lbs of ammo going to AAA police supply. You guys sure go through a lot of that stuff!

 

Morning

Hopefully this week is better than last. My 401k and other accounts took an absolute pounding.
