Not So Pro 3

[Loony661]

so you are taking the day off and recoup ?

So you are going to act like Dallas all day? Don’t forget the westerns and coffee.

That sounds fantastic. But I’m not doing that. Moving the skidder to a new job today.

For me the dissassembly is the easy part, the reassembly is the not so easy part

Good morning saw dorks. Had a bit of a scare yesterday with an old friend from grade school having some trouble with her heart, seems it was stopped for some time up to 15 minutes they say. She finally woke up and could recognize and talk with people there at the Hospital she was flown to the night prior in Marshfield. Turns out it was hypertension was the culprit, a fixable thing at least.

 

[footstep]

Good to hear she's ok.

You’re not wrong. I gotta be there to load and unload it. For some reason, truck drivers don’t like machines with tires on the edge of the trailer.

Things like this are why engineers are almost universally hated by anyone in the trades. There are good ones, but the bad ones sure stand out.

Just add Nitrous.

That would be perfect on something that can’t hold a head gasket to start with probably have the same effect as adding any power what so ever to a 6.0 powerstroke.

40’ deck over. It’s not bad. The sketchy part is the chains sliding on the metal ramps, or if you get a little off center, they can slide you off the side. Go slow and pay attention, and it’s not bad.
