Welcome back Hunt - Just the other day I was wondering where you disappeared to and how you have been. gg

Arrow, maybe you could fasten a rough platform or piece of plywood on the end of your forks to make moving the big blocks around and positioning them on the vertical splitter shoe easier. Sort of like this.. gg

Wow. Those should make for a very nice bench LoaderMan !! Are they already dry or do you have to dry them. A question from someone who knows nothing about cedar woodworking. gg

Speaking of chickens or roosters in this case, we used to keep a bunch of different critters. We kept the chickens in a coop but the rooster, Mr. Lucky, was free to roam. One day he wandered into the electric fence which was powered by one of those Weed-Chopper chargers (not sold anymore because...

I wouldn't look at it like that - you don't chicken out. You assess the risk and make a decision based on your assessment just like you should. The smart way to work !! gg

I had a dead fir on the side of the road and adjacent to the power line. These are notorious for becoming blowdowns and in this case a potential power outage. So I wanted it on the ground before winter. It was pretty straight but being dead and on the power line made me decide to use my winch...

I hope so too - that is a big concern here too. gg

There is a camp a couple miles down the town road. Their drive into it hasn't been touched in a long long time. They asked me if I would put it back into decent shape. It was too rough and boney to just grade out, worse than the picture shows. It flattens and extends for another 60 or 70 feet...

I pulled out some firewood yesterday. One of my neighbors came by. He told me that a tree fell into his pond a couple years ago and he wanted to hire me to pull it out with my tractor. He said it would be a good time because his pond is down 27" because of the sever drought we are in. I...

Not many have that mind-set and forethought. Hats off to you and your family !!! gg

Nice work (y) gg

Nature's Miracle Enzymatic Formula Oder Remover. I found it in Home Depot. Then washed off the residue from several heavy applications with Simple Green. gg
