Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

I think I'm on to something....



It's a wonder it ran at all!

 

Woah that’s pretty cool!!

 

We'll take it!!!

Knot sure wut this means but eet aint no English.





And keeping with the current saw theme, I put this monster to the test today.







Dont worry about those limbs, they'll be burned and the ashes will be used as packing material for prizes.

 

Why don't we give the limbs away whole?

 

You can't be serious.
What sort of hairbrained crapola is that? I'm not trying to drive all over town looking for big boxes, bubble wrap, tape...only to have to haul that garbage cool stuff to the post office and get frowned upon (again) by the generally grumpy and somewhat scary kind and hardworking government employee that is not at all happy by the large and somewhat rectangular boxes that they have to be crammed carefully organized inside their vehicle for a proper and efficient delivery.

Its a logistical nightmare is what it is!!!

Btw....no more of that 'free shipping' crap from the warehouse, we gots bills to pay.

 

Don’t you remember anything from the free shipping cimmagnar? You taught it


I just got this package from you and all the label says is to Creed from Stock free shipping.


You just shove it in the nearest package thing and they pick it up by 4:30ish







FYeye, I wrote return to sender. Hope it works

 

You should keep that!! Its one of our best prizes!!

 

I sent it to you 1st

 

And I paid it forward.....

 

Kinda a rekindling of sorts

 

Just finished trimming my shrub too! . I didn't take as much off as you tho.

The old girl is running like a top again.

 

With a chainsaw!

 

Glad this trailer is double axle

 

Yeah, no flags required Would look good decked near them trees over by the neighbours place.

 

That sure looks like work to me.

I'll be over there in the corner sitting in a chair with @RustyGreen .....supervising.

 

Well fellers, it was an excellent day, bright, clear & not too hot.

So here is your metaphysical though for the day:
Taking off from the garage with the mower and trailer I could see some dust blowing off from sitting all winter - it seemed I could feel some blowing off myself as well - an (odd) feeling of calm & optimism.

Five lawns done, no tire problems and nothing fell off.

It was a good day, I hope y'all found some sunshine as well.

 

Well a little better today, got the rest of the 55 gallon drum bottom cut out. Thing had 2 solid inches of lacquer semi hardened. Built a little fire and cleaned up the bottom and around the sides. Beat the sharp edges down into the barrel so the lip was rounded. Scooped up the solid stuff, stuffed it into 2 plastic bags and hauled it to the dump. A little small for the stump, nothing a chainsaw couldn't handle. Larry the lineman came by and dropped off 30 eggs, and I asked him if he thought it was to close to the power lines underground to burn he said nope.
Picked up the Tacoma fire extinguisher and dropped off 2 more, ready on Thursday. I'll drop off 2 more then. Before I go there I will go to mother's and see about her fire extinguishers and turn off her fireplace and clean it up for next season.
Rambling now.
Went to slowes and got the right 1/2" brass elbow for the return on the FEL up and down we go now. Next tomorrow I tackle the lift arm and replace the seals.
As @RustyGreen said a good day today.
