I think it needed a lower relief pressure for the size of the cylinder vs. the bracketry 😆

Always wanted to give these sketchy chair prone ashes a whirl just to see. The two or three Arizona ashes I have cut were healthy, pretty hard/tough/strong.

Sounds normal 😆 I have a bunch of smallish dry stuff to cut up, I’m going to try my new $80 Chinese 36” light weight bar on my 461 with some Oregon multicut. Just so I can cut over there while I’m over here 😆

@Gypo- nothing wrong with that, and rare in this day and age. I think you can click on and see the link without having an IG account. I kinda figured you'd report that you know the guy; lotta highly skilled, independent cutters on IG it seems. @davidwyby - dang I thought you'd love that post- a...

After a while you will hate cutting ash, dry, dusty, brittle wood that shatters like glass, jamming up the chipper at every feed cycle. I can still smell the dust.

Year 4 of the EAB invasion was slowed by a polar vortex. -40° really put the hurt on that little bug and good for it, but damn was it cold.

Pretty heavy duty. Bad weld cause failure? Looks like it could use a bigger engine and pump for the size of the cylinder.

That's a thick chunk of metal to bend like that.

yeah, from what I’d read, I don’t think EAB was stoppable. But maybe the gold spotted oak borers out here. The green log thing is a good idea. I’ve cut down healthy eucs, stored the logs in my yard, and found the cambium eaten out later when I went to make firewood. I guess I need to cover...

Life has been so busy and crazy those pics are days old but I think that’s what we did.

EAB trees are a large percentage of the treework around here. It's not if, it's when they get it.

You gonna flame straighten that flange?

EAB came hard and fast here in my area. I not so so sure trap trees would have worked. It was like the entire county blew up at once, dead ash everywhere. Very few left.

I've seen green log traps for Ips beetles in pines. They solar cook the logs after the beetles burrow into the log by covering with clear or black plastic.

Euc broke a customer’s mighty big old heavy splitter. Coincidentally, the Mike Abatti in the news.

I like most decently behaved dogs, we had outside dogs as a kid, and my mom had a good little poodle. Unfortunately, we are all allergic to anything that sheds and getting a dog house trained etc., and having it cared for while we are often gone is probably not worth it. We dog sat a golden...

About the only way to get rid of palm “wood” is the landfill. It doesn’t burn well at all. Maybe if ripped into tiny pieces. I think it’s hard on chippers. I have some good sized trunks I’ve been staring at trying to figure out what to do with them. I ripped one into some slabs, maybe to...

Have you considered an adjustable bridge? I have tied a shorter bridge for spar work, but found it to be unnecessary.

Yes, Burnham, avoiding the Circle of Death. Coos Bay. Deep sapwood cuts. Bore out the holding wood, leading a trigger/ back-strap. Gut the hinge. Golden triangle.
