I've seen a few back glasses knocked out from wood,that sucks.

Awesome thread! I just read it again.

I've been cutting trees the last few weeks steady and I found out that I'm not young anymore, the 395 and 066 are getting heavier I believe.

Cut 50 or so hickorys this week and man are they a bear to cut.

ported 562xp.....

And after that last job kicking my ass, a piece of wood shattered my back widow. I think 2-3 tree jobs I've done, have claimed my back Windows

Sounds like it's time for a headache rack and lexan

Thanks buddy. I like it here thread wise too. Brings us average, everday working guys together. 50 trees that's a busy week. I threw a Oregon reduced weight on my 395. Made a big difference. These bars are built better than they used to be. I'm guilty of prying out an undercut once in awhile I'm happy with it, Have me better balance, and not the nose weight. Better for a longer day.

I threw a chunck thru the rear window of my 86 ford many years ago and was telling my ins. agent about it and he said "you've got glass coverage don'tcha, I said "yeah", He said "you didn't do it on purpose did ya" I said "no", he said then " then it's an accident we'll get you a new one".

Still cutting firewood, and burning brush. Wishing I had a tractor.

Land owner here let me rent a dozer for a week. D5k, a friend and I cut roads for 7 days. Long hours but meter was running. Sun up Too sundown everyday. Underestimated all the down trees and stumps. We have had sudden oak death around here for about 15 years. It has created some havoc. I had to push trees and piles and trees for days. Couldn't imagine clearing it by hand. Did fall a few trees though in the process. Got the roads all roughed in, a few finished grade. Not our side though it was a little roughed product, due to all the downfall. But road goes clear to the top now, on this 40 acre piece. And some of the country we were working in was vertical, and unforgiving. Saw on deck was my trusty 288.

Hey thanks my friend. I really appreciate that. Congratulations on the having your own tree service. Something I have always pondered on, and wanted....

Been just beat and tired lately. No real work action, other than a few limbs and medium tree takedowns. Would do more pics, but some reason hard for me to load here.

In he last two weeks or so I have cut down several larger trees that had hollows in them and raccoons come out out the trees were down. In the past four years I had not seen anything come out of the trees and in two weeks three different times raccoons. I haven't been good on getting pictures as of late though.
