Morning midlanders !

Foolish idea?

I would have the tree guys leave all the 10” and larger and carry away the small stuff from the pine and pear.

I can cut it up to firewood lengths and pile it so it would be easy for folks to drag off for their fire pits and such.

I bet it would all be gone by February. [emoji848]

Stupid? Yes, no?

Better keep a part of trunk for test wood [emoji106]
Put by curb and free sign it be gone

The pear will make good smoker fodder. I am sure someone would take it off your hands.

Good point. I'll save the main trunk from it.

Exactly. Plus the entertainment value for the geezer.

Otherwise it would all end up at the city landfill.

That's my point, a 5105 has no problem with regular skip chain on a 16" bar, especially ported. Heck, I think Matt has a 20" on his with regular skip chain. I've just never seen full skip on a bar that small, so it seems odd. It is less to sharpen, which is always nice. It would be interesting to see how it cuts.
A 60" bar running square skip with an 8 tooth drive works very well on my 661:treadmill: at least milling maple

My stock 5100 runs a 20" with full set of cutters. Full comp is all I use, but skip works fine. I'll use it up till the teeth start breaking off. As long as the cutters are chisel not semi, I'm good with it.

Can you imagine full skip semi-chisel??? You need a few loops of that. I can here the *b-wording now...

Howdy all. Between the heat and three crews working in Tulsa I am beat down to nothing by Friday. One crew starts 1:00am, another at 4:00am and the last one 6:00am. I get calls and texts almost constantly lol. I had the pleasure of shaving in preparation for a refinery job, first time I’ve been clean shaven in 8 years! Two of the three kids haven’t even seen me without a beard. I already hate it. I want to get that job done and get my beard back!

Other than order a few OEM Stihl parts and draw up a bar spacer for the machinist to mount a Stihl bar to my Mac 125 I haven’t touched a saw. Stay cool out there!

Took a seed tick out of my waist line on 7/13 or 7/14. I started noticing a ring and rash. It kept growing; I thought it was an infection (like staph/cellulitis). Went to doctor yesterday. He took one look and says, "looks like you have Lyme disease!!!" He started me on antibiotics. I searched images of Lyme disease and the pictures look exactly like what I have on my waist line

Lol, that’s sounds refreshing on the heat & humidity down there but not quite as invigorating as having to shave in the middle of winter while in ND & MT. Most of the US rigs we serviced we could get by without shaving but the Canadian rigs were ball busters about being clean shaven, FR clothing & no hoods. Even a couple weeks of scruff helped a lot with the cold winds.

A bit of derail: The 2 Chinese rigs I was at were real chit holes, brain buckets, FR’s, long pants & sleeves, work boots & safety glasses were optional.

Hope those antibiotics help out, that’s a chitty deal.
