Ouch!
Is the pan aluminum?

Yes. Gonna have to haul it home to weld it up. It also broke the plastic dipstick itself. Gonna need one of those if your brother has one laying around.

Good morning. I should have put the drill on the spinner a long time ago. Loving it. Makes making 40 chains much. Oh the bolt is M10 metric.


easier.

We cut up a White Oak today in Wichita. We weren't moving fast and counting an hour of drive time, it was 7 hours from leaving the house, to having 1.25 cords bucked, split and stacked. Wasn't a bad score as it was all straight in access and I didn't have to deal with the brush. I did it as a favor for the parent of friend of my little brother. At first he wanted to try to saw it up an sell it as firewood, though he didn't have an axe, nor a splitter and didn't know that he could sharpen the chain on his Chicom Crapsman...

He also was going to help me with the work as he supposedly wanted to learn how. Oh well. I'm 2.25 cords into next year's wood now. If I can get to 10 by Christmas, I'll be a happy camper.

Workshop, is that a Beretta Storm? I like the straight load chamber design. It would be interesting to try.
Yep. PX4 Storm full frame.
I took my daughter with me when I bought it and relied on her judgement.
8 years Army Reserve MP. She qualified expert with a Berreta.

Dam. I'd try and add a skid plate or something.



Looks dam good Steve!

Well it already has oversized tires for extra clearance but it was a really bad pot hole. And they do make metal skid plates for these cars. I don't know if it would have helped in this situation. I just got home about 10 mins ago. So I'll try to start fixing it tomorrow.
