Snow.



It’s snowing here.

I'm at least that far, and it was worth the trip. That was before pain management entered my life, had to leave early to ease my back. Got to see a few of the folks that we hear here. Brought me into further experience with chain sawers in other areas.
On a completely different subject:View attachment 354972 Rain since it's not quite cold enough for snow.

I understand the pain management part I am also in pain management but I am going to do my best to be there

I wasn't at that time, getting horizontal for awhile was about the only thing then.

I’ve got about a dozen. They don’t call them a brick for no reason. I see them on marketplace a lot around here for up to $250. Are they worth that? I see them still for sale so must not be. A good saw, plenty of power but for 60cc there a lot of others the same size that are a lot lighter. I would say a really nice one in really good condition $100-$150 tops. Most usually somewhere in the $50 range. If you’re into McCulloch what you’d want to look for, in the PM series, would be the PM650 or PM655. Same cc but better porting . More power.
Harder to find,too.

Cabled out for $150. Running gear tracks as well as ever on the 4 miles away from my place and back here. Alls well for a 1st time to be pulled out of the snow in over 52 years of driving in worse winter snows, on worse tires glad that's out of the bucket list

Glad you got a tow and no damage!
$150 will sure take a bite out of a guy's wallet!
Stay safe out there Tony.

Made the rounds out in the shop and stripped 12 tenderloins from all the carcasses last night.

Ely came over and started skinning all of em..

We got great temps for aging out there right now..
bout 37-39 degrees and relatively high humidity.
So hang they will, till I see a change in shop temps.

Man, there are a lot of deer this year.. I’m thinking we could take another dozen does and still not really “thin” the local herd. We’d probably have to cut the population in half to see any real results.

Kind of snowy here this morning.

 

[Bryan Newton]

Morning yall

 

[Sawdust Man]

Morning everybody.
The snow missed us.....or at least it was gone by the time I got up this morning.
Got this outta one of our hens yesterday...

No danger of thinning the heard here unless all the “super hunters “ change their thinking paradigm & start shooting some does.

My wife hit one last night, she was about 50 yards from Hy-Vee,’s front door.

Dang, thats too bad!
If the darn guberment would get outta the way I'd eat a whole lot of does.... I just hate playing their stinking hunting regulations game...

I know it's the first saw I ever ran and the saw I cut my teeth on for a decade. I have 3 and when I got them 13, or 14 years ago, I bought runners for 100 bucks. They work and do the job, but as Mr. Workshop mentioned, they're heavy and not the most powerful. That said, I cut dozens of trees with the things and I only ran a 20 inch bar back then. Parts used to be plentiful on Ebay and still may be, I haven't looked for years now. If you need any parts for one, let me know.

I hope your wife was OK and not shaken up too much. Sorry to hear that.

She is fine, she is just upset that she is going to be driving the pickup for awhile. It will put a crimp in her travels.
