Nice big white pine. Only ones that truly grow to monsters around here and the only trees I kill the saw to hear the SMASH when they land lol. Looks like you got weevil in your area?

I cut a few oaks for the neighbor and he delivered the logs to my house.

I haven’t seen any signs of weevil on the ones I cut down. I think they just look more sparse this time of year before the new growth starts. Definitely fun seeing them fall.

Pines here get nailed by the weevil, got all kinds of mutant white pines with 5-6 leaders. hate the buggers they make bushes out of the trees. I saw the fork up the trunk and figured lol

Here’s a rather long video of the pines I dropped today in my back yard. Sorry if I bored you but easier than taking 100 photos.

We cut 24 trees today with me, my pops and my cousin. This was the biggest one, a 44" DBH poplar

About 12 years ago I got a 67" maple that was broken by a tornado. The tree lived through the colfax tornado of '58 that leveled the town. I hit a railroad spike that was driven point first all the way to the center. I don't remember how old the tree was, but the distance the spike was driven was nothing short of amazing. The power of a tornado and the crazy things they can do. The spike is still around here somewhere. The tree lasted two years as firewood.

Tons of torque. Not like a lot of these newer higher strung, higher rpm saws. Not as refined. But for the age of the design not bad at all. Just works, gets the job done without too much fuss.
