Bill - i can and will blame the chaisnaw, was probly the silly bugger that didnt take the 25" bar off to trim 4" brnaches fault thow.

I'd blame the saw too!  If'n it was a swede saw, prolly wouldn't have happened ;) ;)
Seriously though Weisey, you have lucked out so far.  Maybe one of you blokes needs to invent warm weather safety gear?  That would be a real "hot" item for sure!  Nice whack of logs, you will be busy for a while wittlin' them down to size 8) 8)

Tnx for the welcome Chris, On the Redgum log I used a 50" r series cutting from both sides, then had to use a 72" roller nose to finish the cuts, a pity though I was contracted to cut it up for firewood (  just over 50 ton ), on the larger dia section of the log I could have cut slabs 25ft long x at least 6 ~ 7 ft wide, birdseye as well ! It's a bit of a sore point between me and the fella I did the cutting for.

Regards .... Laurie

Personally I like ctting in shorts. I was cutting in shorts a few years back w/ a 6' bar (flattening a stump for a table base), the saw was revving down as the bar went horizontal (bending/ flexing) and the chain came off and proceeded to wrap it'self around my leg as it stopped

[sigidi]

You're right Carl, it's been a bit light on with 'Milling' stuff over there

Chris I name everything, the old truck was Donkey (the Dihatsu) the 6-18 was Larry the Lucas, the 372-XP is Harry the Husky, the new 10-30 is Bo Derek - cause she's the perfect 10 ;D and the new ute is 'The Mutt' cause was a mate's favorite saying an he had a good deal to do with buying it ;)

I've been away from the computer for over a week so pleased you mentioned stuff to Carl about it - he's got a bit of pine we are thinking of doin something with too - but shoooosh mums the word on that at the moment ;)
