I was pleased with my couple of hours of wood cutting today despite a couple of set backs.
My Asian 440 Big Bore was doing great … till I hit a nail! No way to see it, was deep in the round and must have been about 10' off the ground, no idea how it may have got there. The lot has always been vacant and it is about 50 ft from the border where you may expect such things.
Luckily I always bring backup, so my MMWS 462 got the call to finish up the work!
The second problem … I put air in the wheelbarrow tire, thought is was just low due to sitting for the whole winter, but the air did not hold. It is only a small little hill to the road, but if you put too much wood in it your feet were kicking out black dirt instead of you going forward, so I had to take a bunch of smaller loads.
That said, I pulled out a 1/2 cord of nice solid Ash for my Daughter, and there is still more left. It was good to get outside and run the saws and do some work! I need to start getting back in shape.
