Same results if you eat the fruit in the bottom of a cooler of jungle juice.

So I started on a huge (for me, a one man crew) tree job last Sunday. A guy bought a house, and the lot probably had 30 trees on it. 10-15 Cedars, a couple Elms, and several Locust trees. There's a few other, smaller trees he's keeping, and I have no idea what they are, but everything goes but the few smaller ones he wants to keep.

Here's the haul so far. This is one skinny Cedar, and 5 Locust trees. For reference, the biggest trunk, in the second picture, on the right side of the pallets, is 28 inches in diameter, and there's other large trunks behind it, under the smaller stuff.

I've got about 25 cord already cut, split and seasoning, so I'm just going to stockpile this tree job, until a later date. I figure it probably keeps better in log form, than all split up. I still need to empty the pickup box, before I get back to it.

Been a while since I've posted in here.
I've gotten most of the dangerous stuff down and all bucked up, quite a few loads of wood and the new green rounds pile is getting pretty big.
I still have a good bit more to get from my parents of the white oak there, had fun getting the last load I got there, thawed a bit while I was loading/it was a little too soft .

White oak and some cherry in the trailer, and white oak ash, black locust, elm, cherry in the pile. I see a decent amount of hickory just don't get it very often, it's been a couple yrs since I've cut any. I have a couple hickory on the property here, but they are under 2" and around 5", so it will be a while before I harvest them lol.

I cut up some big red oaks at my parents over 5yrs ago with a 660, I straight gassed my 346 on the smaller stuff, mixed my splitter fuel with my saw fuel .
My dad joking said I thought you were gonna give me the quad(very nice Honda foreman) for all that free wood, I said there wasn't anything free about that wood!
Found some pictures of it in the archives .

Right where my boys hand is pointing is where I was stuck in the picture above.

I was excited. My friend who was grabbing the logs to move to my pile with the skid steer asked if a little mulberry was ok. I laughed to myself and said sure, if nobody else wants that junk I suppose I'll have to take it. There's still a little more to grab and I already know nobody else will take it. They are grabbing up all the ash and red oak. I have the little bit of hickory left on lockdown. That is smoker wood and if you don't bring the boss smoked chicken like I do you don't stand a chance.

Is the Dolmar ported?

No she is not!
Factory stock (never taken apart 2003. unit) with what most would consider a waste of time mild muffler mod.

She's a beast and sexy to boot.
