A good day to split lots of pics !

[Backwoods Savage]

AC and Pete, once again I offer my humble apology. Oh how I wanted to be there and I even seriously considered driving over in my car around mid-day. When I said something, my wife said she expected that but there just was no way this body was going to be able to do it. Doubt I could have even taken the driving but at least I was there in spirit.

And what can we say about all the good men helping put a less fortunate one. It really does make me happy though knowing his transplant is coming along good. Thanks fellas.

Bottom line on that saw is I traded it for my pro mac 605 & $ 35.00 dollars to a guy desperate for a running saw. Hadn't run in years. Fixed the fuel tank cleaned it up, comp. tested it @ 135 psi, new clutch drum & sprocket. Fired it up & it ran good, so I threw a bar on it & used it here & there. Got the 036 pro & just don't use it much. Dug around in the pile, found a decent 20" bar, slapped a really used chain on it & called it Pete's saw. It's as ugly as they come, but runs good, & fired on the 2nd pull. Don't have much in it, & want even less out of it. It needs to be run. Can't think of a better guy to have it than Pete. He worked his tail off Saturday, & got nothing but a sore body & hopefully a little comraderie & satisfaction for a job well done. Hopefully some of the other guys join hearth.com, they're a good bunch. A C

Ok I just gotta say it.. Pallet Pete procured a pruning power saw to propel his prolific sawing prowess to perpetual perfection . There I feel better now

That's a good one Ray. Notice that I refrained from mentioning the milk crate that the crew did without.

LOL I hear that Dennis think they needed a reclining milk crate with Corinthian leather! Great to see Pete and AC help out like they did and I know you would if you could too Dennis! I know you've helped others in the past and others know as well so keep smiling!

Yup my right knee couldn't take that right now! Abuse your knees now and pay later!

On the knees is terrible for sure. And to think, some even do it standing up but they have to have a better bender than I have. Just can't imagine bending over for hours... You should have suggested cutting a round the right height.

 

[amateur cutter]

Ok OK, enough with the crate, my bad I forgot it. I cut em a couple nice rounds for chairs, but they were pretty focused on getting everything split. You should've seen those guys working those splitters, they busted it hard all day. I think that despite being on a saw for about 6 hrs. straight, I had the easier work, those boys humped it hard all day long. At least I got to take breaks for fuel & fresh chains. A C

Dennis, take your time & heal up, there will be other opportunities to teach us young punks how to work. A C

Mike, the greatest thing about this is the fact that the surgery was a success. They had him up & walking the next day.He'll be home in mid Dec Lord willing, & be able to be a father & husband to his family. Says he feels great & actually was able to go hiking with his 2 boys for several miles near the Hospital where he is recouping. Only issue now might be rejection, & so far so good. A C

Excellent news. Good things happen when good people come together to support one another.

I think Stacks pretty much sums up what I was thinking . . . good karma to good people all around.
