Eat yer heart out Fisher!!! 





:D I tried pushing snow with the 208 once. Once.

Dave, that's because you were not using one of the very popular Poplar Plows. Starting price of only $300, universal quick hitch not included. 100% made in the USA with all natural, renewable materials!! You can upgrade to our heavy duty Pine Plow and if needed the industrial strength Oak plow!! Call now, operators are standing by!!

Makes a man just want to sit on the verandah and stare at the water all day, then maybe go fishing, then end the day still sitting there with beers watching the bikini girls undulate down the waterfront.
Could be worse, your blade could be undulating, just saying.

Ifins he's a sittin on his veranda, the likelihood of his blade undulating is not likely, and even if does, I doubt it will will interfere much with his intended field of vision.

You can tell it's New England by the pup trailer style and in an area where logging is common by the log diameter . Winter logging makes the best lumber.

What is that in that second picture ???  ::)   Looks like something I would use for firewood.
I have not seen one of those trailers for years. Was a big deal back in the late 70's early 80's.

Good for you, saves a lot of money and headache.  I assume your Farmers COOP can fill it for you?
YellowHammerisms:

Take steps to save steps.

If it won't roll, its not a log; it's still a tree.  Sawmills cut logs, not trees.

Kiln drying wood: When the cookies are burned, they're burned, and you can't fix them.

Sawing is fun for the first couple million boards.

Be smarter than the sawdust

Good idea.
Here in the state of Maine we have to have a slab under our tanks.

Oh gosh yes it is a savings.  Red fuel is around $0.30 / gallon here cheaper.
