Adding some storage :)

Same; as that "Swedish" world is a soft wood and limbing world. Remember rev boost? Didn't do a damn thing for hard wood felling. Looks like a softwood focus in specs and also the video.

Looks great, I'll believe it when I see one as there literally is no dealer presence anymore here. Great in theory... I'll run my Junk pile 572's and new 585's.

Back sifting through the pile of junk.... and re-engaging with an old favorite chassis

Old Husqvarna's :) Getting the Junk pile making noises other than like dropping metal in a pile

Yes that was over 200 cars. 216 sounds right. Go by axle count, each locomotive has 6 and there were 6 locomotives. That's 36 axles...so 900 - 36 = 864 axles of rolling stock. 864 / 4 =216. Since I caught that one, others have seen a few more like that train which essentially is one train...

Kind of rare to find one in running order. This one had a rough life, I "collected" it 15 years back. It ended up at Bob's, came back for a mini. It's Bar oil line, felling spike, and fuel line / cab needed attention. ( Did that in another video ). AND after putting a couple hours into it with...

Back to work in the woods doing firewood for a bit. Help from a friend :) And beat a saw that stumped me a few years back as well :)

The essence of my summer, building roads & this :(

Last in this video I wanted to show what propagates a barber chair, so I left a LOT of hinge to show how the chair starts at the back....didn't quite get it to barber chair but you can see how the stress forms that can create one. I will prolly re do this video and force a chair for demo...
