GO! ;D

The answer to the first question is:    They don't need a hammer cause they have already changed their plans :D

Jeff,

You asked the wrong DanG question,  I'll never win at this rate :-/

I bet if you was to order a new cant hook right now, they would give you the answer. In fact I am sure they would.

Ah, complainers complainers :D :D :D  ;)

shwooooooooooweeeeeeeeeee :-X

HAY, I thought it was gonna be questions about roofing!!!!! ::)

Good luck with your contest. I am sure that it will be interesting. I already have 2 peaves, 1 cant hook. 3 chains saws, a wood splitter , skidding winch, tractor, maul& 4 axes,ropes pulleys, so don't think that i would have room for anymore.

deerlope you might want to get in on this here coontest and get you one of them canthooks, there so pretty they would make a dandy wall hanger ;)

Hot Dog, and easy contest, it only took me two hours to get the answer to the first question, but I only cheated once.      8) 8) 8) 8) 8)

Deerlope,
I noticed you didn't say you had a Hookaroon. They're small and don't take up much space.
LogRite

DanG, took me almost eight minutes to get the first answer, and I didn't cheat..  :D

Hope the rest of them are a bit harder.

Hey - a thought - supose somebody get all the right answers AND the wildcards?  What then?  Free hat or sumpin'?

I will be posting question #3 a little early tomorrow, and leaving question #2 on a little longer.

Tammy and I are taking a flying trip to the U.P. right after work tomorrow to pick up a load of cedar log siding. Will stay at the cabin tomorrow night, load up in the morning and be back home in time to give ya'll question # 4!

Now there's a man with [shadow=red,left,300]DEDICATION[/shadow]  :)

I sure hope the Logrite crew has the list of questions - this weekend I'll be hanging out at the Richmond expo without the internet :o

Nope, they dont. ;D  I make them up as we go.

Maybe you can bribe somebody. :D

How about leaving Saturday and Sunday's on until Monday morning? I for one won't have internet access on Sunday since I am going to da big city in SD.

They have a big city in SD?  

Just one Ron - Sioux Falls (well it's big for around here).

Is that where Sioux City Ginger Beer is made.  They might lack trees but that stuff is go-o-ood!  Charlie introduced it to me last week. ;D

Don't know Tom, I haven't heard of that kind before but I'll be on the lookout. ;)

O.K. STinky. THat makes sense. :)

Logrite, True I don't have a Hookaroon but I do have a pulphook that I hand forged myself. Its made for my large hand with or without gloves on. Hookaroons are not much good when loading pulp wood on a truck or trailer.

I think after this contest, I'm applying for a job at Logrite  ;D

Of course, it sure beats answer questions on tractors that where made 50 years before I was born  ;)

SawDust Studios

Can you weld aluminum?  or bake brownies?

Don't know about welding aluminum, but I bet I can make a pretty mean brownie with my welder  ;D

Dave

Hey Jeff,
This contest is soooo easy. I've answered every question right so far. I might just win it!
LogRite

I must not be as smart as you, Pete. I've had to do extensive research in order to find the answers. But look on the bright side; if you win, you will save all those shipping costs!
 8)

Hey Rocky_J,

If I do win, I could just turn around and sell the tool!


Hey, wait a minute. That's what I do every day. Hmmm. I'm gonna have to think about this a little while longer.

LogRite

 Hey Pete, hows the hit meter doing on your website ;)?

I've noticed a spike in activity over the past week. I just don't know exactly why. The contest started the same time we were at the Richmond Expo. I think the activity is related to a little of both.

I wonder how many FF members are actually playing? Time will tell when Jeff gets the answers submitted.

The wild card questions should even out the playing field for everyone.

Wild Cards??

 :-X    ;D

Donk you didnt tell anybody about the secret first post did ya?  Never tell a swamp donkey nothing I'm tellin ya...

hahhahahahahaha :D

Honest boss, I didn't tells :D

What, where, huh, hmmmmm.......... :-/(https://forestryforum.com/smile/headscratch.gif)
 ;)

I been thinking and studying over this.  I think what yall oughta do is to mail all yer answers to me instead of Jeff! ;D I'll proof read em, make any corrections as needed, and then forward my answers to Jeff!!! ;D 8) 8) 8)

Kind of like when Jethro said to Jed, "Uncle Jed, If you'll let me handle your money in a year you'll be a millionaire!"

Jed said, "Boy, I got 30 million now!!!"

Jethro "Don't worry about that Uncle Jed, I'll take care of them kind of details!!!"

Bet yall can guess that Jed didn't let Jethro handle the money!!!!

Oh well, thought it'd be worth a try anyways!!!!1 :)

Thought you all might want to see a picture of the LogRite Dog.(https://forestryforum.com/images/03_21_04/logdog2.jpg)
He is part shepherd and part lab.

Hay I got #11 right :)
I think that makes it about 4 or 5 that I have right so far ;D

 :-/Heck I am still working on #1.  I've got two of three.  Not sure where I am missing it.  Can't be that hard ??? ???

Jacar

Well, here is a hint. They have all posted in this thread...

Heck, you've re-worded question #1. I thought you wanted their real names! Their screen names are easy.

I think question 11 might a trick question  ???

Just like a bunch of kids in a candy store, gotta watch ya's all the time. :D :D :D

(https://forestryforum.com/images/03_21_04/logdog2.jpg)
Nice looking dog, Pete. What's his name?  :)

 :D

He's a great dog! His name is.......


info@logrite.com

 ;D

Are you kidding Donk?

I had no trouble getting the answer.

Jeff- I noticed in the rules for the contest, nowhere does it say that I cannot just ask someone if I don't know the answer to a question. It's amazing how easy it is to get an answer if I simply ask the appropriate person.
 8) 8) 8) 8)

No reason you guys cant get answers from each other that I know of.  :)

They aint even told ME the durn dogs name... Maybe they dont know.  HEY DOG! Remember Pettycoat Junction? Wasn't that dogs name dog?

Hello All,
It seems as if our yahoo business mail account was down for 1/2 hour or so. Nice job yahoo! If they only knew we were in the middle of a contest, maybe their computer guys would be a little more on the ball.

Anyhow. If the info@logrite.com email address gives you any trouble, use my personal address. peter24@snet.net

Keep those emails coming in one way or another!
Pete

Jeff:

Nope wasn't kidd'n, it was a direct quote off the server.  ::)

Hello, All,
Some of you playing the contest have been getting emails returned to you. This is a sample error message.

"Error 550 Relaying Denied

The underlying cause is:
E-Mail Returning a Relaying Denied Error Message
This error occurs when an e-mail address is trying to send e-mail through the wrong SMTP server.

The solution is:
Check your E-Mail Settings"

I did some research and although I haven't found the specific reason it seems as if the problem might be because your email account is trying to use the smtp server of this forum, not the smtp server of your internet provider. If all else fails, don't click the email link in this forum. Type the address info@logrite.com in your email client directly and send it here.

Any info to help me resolve this would help.

To all those that are getting through with no problems. Ignore this post and keep on playing.
Pete

I got through on the third attempt, just fine. My email account servers never change. I have yahoo email accounts and there are times they are out of service or something, cause can't reach'm. Try later and they work. Might even be my ISP, who knows. Too complex for me to even speculate. ;D

Logrite, Sorry but that doesnt have anything to do with it :D  Our email accounts and the link on the forum are not at fault, its on the receiving end. Swamp Donkey is right on. Its Yahoo. Yahoo is horrible. My kids use Yahoo and Hotmail and they work about half of the time and lose mail consistantly.

THe Forum uses no SMTP Server, I dont allow it. THe link you click on simply opens your personal email client and has no connection what so ever to the forums servers.

BAAADDDDD YAHOOOOOO!!!!!

It does seem to be working better today.

The forum SMTP thing was a problem similar to this but a different forum. I don't know the internals that well. I was just spitting back what I read. Thanks for clearing that part up.
Pete

Well it looks like I might need a new cant hook.

(https://forestryforum.com/images/03_21_04/Broken%20cant%20hook%2001.jpg)

This one has been cracking for a couple of days and
I was hoping to wait until I won the new one, But I might hafta order one anyway, That way the wife has one too.  ;D

I think anyone who ask this many questions may be in violation of the state teaching codes unless thay have a teaching certificate. ;D

Jeff,

Question 13 is this about a particular size of framing hammer?

Mrs. Stump jumper

Shopteacher,

Don't forget my day job is teaching grades 1 and 2.  So I can ask a lot of questions.  

My first graders are getting the answers right.  :D :D :D

Tammy

Since it ain't agin' the rulez to ask, I'm a gonna ask:

What was question #11?

Durn it, I'm trying to build my house, and I just couldn't get to the computer Friday nite.

Somebody e-mail me off the forum, puhleez!

Well I finally found the rest of the answers to #1 :P Duh!  Don't think I would make much of a detective. ;D  Thanks for the hints.

Hey is anybody willing to email me some questions this week.  I will be out of the country the 16th -19th(Mexico).  No email or contact w/ the internet until I get back.  Gonna be hard to find the answers Sat. when I get back if I don't have the questions.  

Jacar

 :D :D :D :D

Yer the competition, No way, No sirs, uh uh ahhhh. ;D

Hi Folks,

I have all the answers. I just don't know the questions!
Heh, that sounds a lot like something a teenager would say.

Anyway, since it sounds like it is legal to ask for help,
I did somehow manage to miss questions # 1 and # 11 in case
someone would mind giving a hint.

This contest is a great idea. While looking around for answers, I have learned a lot about the Forestry Forum website I never knew, and relearned stuff I did know but forgot.

Jim did anybody help you yet?

I don't have the questions or the answers.  But I got a picture of the Grandpa version of Kevin H's cant hook.
(https://forestryforum.com/images/YaBBImages/userpics/UncleChickAuntNellie1.jpg)
My Uncle Chick and Aunt Nellie about 1950. Easy to note the "unique" cant hook design - likely a permanent field repair. :D

:D :D

Don't have to go back that far. My father would use that even after the broken end fell off. That's the same shape his shovels, axes, pick axes and hammers were always in. You know how a pick axe handle is?, well nice when the head slides down and whacks your hand as ya hold it over your head. :D :D

Jeff,

Yes! FF members are the greatest! I got all the help I need
(for now, anyway). Thanks a million.

Say, what are the chances we could get the final question just a little early, like Friday evening, or so? I'm afraid I might not be
able to get to a computer for a little while after that. If it just can't
be done for some reason, I'll understand. This has already been
more fun than a barrel full of monkeys!

Thought I would mention I just got my brand-spankin new 24" pickaroon from LogRite and boy does it work slick! I went out to try it on the firewood pile last night and ended up stacking 1/2 a cord. Now maybe I'll be able to get the mess cleaned up around the wood splitter.

DanG, I thought ya ment aunt Jemima, well its somebody with a bib on ain't it? :D

 :D :D :D :D

Did you guys get an email from Yahoo about their new and improved email service? Yeah right!! :D :D

What happened to question 15?? Or did I sleep all day yesterday.....

You musta slept all day. :) You should be whacked!

You don't like it either, huh SD? Except for the bigger box, it really sucks!  :-/

Danny, can we work a trade? Check your email.  :)

Man,  I ain't answered this many questions since that big house across the street burned down.  ;D Never did care much fer that bloke.  ;)

I wonder how many IM's Noble has by now!  :D

At least one! - but I think he might have been pulling my leg so I might have to use my wild card. :o

Patty,

I turned on the old computer and thought for some reason I had suddenly become endeared by the masses :D

I gave Mark an answer and reminded him that my hobbies are cliff diving and telling stories ;)

I am trying to avoid giving everyone the same answer :D :D

I can already feel that nice blue peavey slipping away from my grasp :'(.

Man that last one was hard . . .but I got it  8)

And I was doing so good until yesterday. Now it seems like I just hit a wall.  :-/ Oh well, I'll keep track of the questions if anyone misses one, but I sure don't know the answers.

Besides, I got my Cant hook a month ago.  ;D

That Jeff's startin to dig deep into the crypt of the forum. :D :D

DanG that was a hard one but I finally got it (of course being stoopid doesn't help much). I was searching hard, but not long enough. ;)

Noble was only partly funnin me.

Its goona get easier. Keep a look out for a last gasp glimpse of things you may have missed. :)  its only goona be a glimpse now... Probably tonight, or maybe in the morning. I'll bet the guys that cant sleep through the night without getting up to go to the bathroom and then check the forum have the best chance of catching it.  Dont ask me how it happens I will be up posting it then... ;)

Well then, I'll just have to ask the guy that posts the questions. You fellers that pace the floors all night can rest easy now, I got the prize in the bag. :D :D

Wow! Now that Mark told me how to make the search feature work on this site, these aren't so hard! (you gotta change the default value where it specifies posts in the last 100 days, change it to 0) We's a rockin' and a rollin' now!  8)

There will be TWO (2) wildcards for the contest.  You can use the word "wildcard" in the place of up to two answers if you cant find them.

Rocky!!!!!!! - shhhhhhhhh :o ;) :D

 :D :D :D

All I can picture is a flying squirrel runnin and gathering butternuts before some chipmunk comes along and finds his stash.

 ;D ;D ;D

Jeff, can I turn in a list with ALL the answers, and the wildcards will automatically take the place of the wrong answers ???  ::)  ;D

Jeff, what's the holdup, where's #19? You just gonna make me squirm all day? ;)

Don't make me use my wildcard...

There is no question 19! :)  See question 1 (in a minute if it aint changed yet)

I'm first, I'm first. Read mine first. :D :D
