We had 88* with some light showers after dinner, got pretty sticky.

I saw my son yesterday he was missing some teeth, apparently he laid his motorcycle down 10 days or so ago & neglected to tell in our phone conversations. Knocked out a couple teeth & busted a couple off.

He said he has been fitted for dentures.

I told him he needs to stay away from riding 2 wheeled things & riding 4 legged animals. He had a horse fall on him in high school & hasn’t been right since. He laid my old Honda over when he was in high school as well & scuffed himself up, thought it was a dirt bike…

I dumped 1.60” this morning & it’s still raining.

Guessers are saying rain thru noonish with high around 65*.

7 day guess is highs around 70* with lows around 50* at night.

I used a fresh loop of the full chiz on a Luck dog special today. Your spot on that the rakers need attention if you are ported.
Damm Shaun @srcarr52 that saw is running better with each heat cycle / tank of fuel. Thanks again.

I hope you are running an 8 pin if it's 3/8's chain.

Sounds like my normal burn mix for 80% of season. Osage gets the call when it’s really cold.

Oh, I have a stash for that...

I get all that stuff I can deal with.. just don’t like filling up the stove with “stuff” on a regular basis.

Only on the coldest nights.

I was digging through the piles of chain that I had today and found a .325 skip chain to put on the Deere 56..

I got a bunch of useless *s-word in that shop..

Bunch more rain this afternoon.
Everything's soupy out there.

Yep 8-pin just like it was when it left your hands. Rakers are 0.040" or a bit lower, and it still pulls like a freight train on steroids.

Good morning folks. 44f currently / near 70f early afternoon.

I'm hoping the sun actually comes out like the guessers are a claiming.

 

[JimBear]

About 50* here, supposedly topping out around 70* as well.

My wife wanted to fire up the wood stove yesterday afternoon, that was a hard no.

Guessers saying 70 for a high today. Finally got a little shower about 3:30 this morning. I'll check the gauge in a bit to see how much I got.

Guessers said rain 3 a.m. thru 11-12ish began a few minutes ago (6:14) . Hope for much as the creek hasn't run for awhile

Got the new tool last night.
Gonna see if the big Case can pull it.
Depth and pitch of the shanks and coulters is controllable..

They work well but pull like a lead sled.

5 shank ?

Probably going to need about 35-40hp per shank, depending on conditions & depth.

I think that Landoll made those, their website gives hp/ft recommendations for their equipment.

This is why they didn't take the blown rock away. Left side shows old curve to the right, up to right of truck shows the curve that goes left that peeps wood hit their brakes hard to lose control when they thought braking wood give control. Straightening out the curves is more likely to work than educating the ill informed, and cost might be similar lol

Good evening folks. It did turn sunny, and warmed nicely. Got a coat of paint finished on the homestead garage. Two painting projects wrapped up and one to go.
