Forestry and Logging / Re: What are you cutting 2025?
Last post by SwampDonkey - Today at 02:04:09 PMI wear a skull cap under the helmet to keep sweat out of my eyes. I change clothes before the ride home. I work from 6:00 am to 2 or 3 in the afternoon unless it's over 80°, then it's noon sometimes 11:00 especially in the 90's heat.

Forestry and Logging / Re: What are you cutting 2025?
Last post by WhitePineJunky - Today at 01:47:02 PMQuote from: SwampDonkey on Today at 01:42:14 PMSame with running a clearing saw. Wet from head to toe in sweat after one tank in the summer heat. Drink lots of water.I can't avoid it. I bring 3 or 4 shirts to rotate and a shower towel to wipe the sweat off me and sweat rags. It's gets bad 30 mins into it by then all my clothes are soaked. Sweat pouring in ur eyes, steam rolling out of my helmet lol.
I start as early as I can lately that's been about 530am. Finish some days by 11 when it's real hot.

Sawmills and Milling / Re: Best log yield?
Last post by Magicman - Today at 12:20:19 PMAbsolutely.
I only custom saw but as is well known here, I will not split a pith which could/will produce crooked lumber. A flitch may make two 1X4's, etc. which could crook but I will always settle for one board per flitch which will remain straight.
Quality always trumps quantity.
