    How'd it go today?

    I've read it makes a lot of ash. More directly, saw fumes have been increasingly bothering me the last year or two. The brushcutter in the woods is particularly bad. The fumes seem to hang, and burn the hell out of my eyes. I hope the RedArmor's better. I have a gallon of it, so I'll be using it...

    How'd it go today?

    The saga continues... Turns out it wasn't the boot. I tested it again today and got continuity. I guess I didn't have it probed right before. I ordered a coil from AIP electronics. They give the impression of being a quality am maker. The coil numbers don't exactly match, but I think it's the...

    You're really doing great with that new rig Pat. Do you find it challenging, or have you 'got it'? Any mistakes where you just have to scrap the material?

    How'd it go today?

    It was a mixed luck kind of day... Boss didn't work so I went in to cut firewood. Couldn't get to my regular spot, so I had to find another place on the farm. Got the wood cut, and went to try my new sexy boot on the chipper. frig me if the boot doesn't require a nippleless stud :^S I farted...

    How'd it go today?

    I just had a fox come to get some cat food. I got up to either bang on the window or take a picture. I hadn't fully decided, but Spot chased him off. She came out like a white flash, and the fox took off :^D She's protective of the food bowl. The only other one allowed to eat is Blackie. There...

    Hope you heal quick Steve. Thankfully, I've never had rib damage, but I can imagine what it feels like just trying to get through life existing, and not really doing anything. edit: cleaned up sloppy sentence structure. When I'm writing, I have several versions going at once, and sometimes they...

    How'd it go today?

    Nah, bleeding is just another day that ends in "y". I hardly notice anymore. I'm more bummed about the piston scuff. The piston looked perfect before I started, and now it doesn't. Probably nothing that matters, but still... I'm hoping no carbon found it's way between the piston and cylinder...

    How'd it go today?

    Decarboned what is probably my most used saw. I didn't do a perfect job, but it's better than it was. I'm giving Mike my last 5G Stihl oil mix bottle, and I'm switching to RedArmor. Curious what the difference will be in carbon accumulation. The fumes from Stihl have really been bothering me. I...

    How'd it go today?

    This is why I use semichisel chain... Cutting firewood, and trying to find the Kaveman a nice piece of elm. Not having a lot of luck. They're either broken or rot has started on the outside.

    How'd it go today?

    I think you're probably ok. I don't believe an mp4 file can do much on it's own. I think it would have to target a vulnerability in software you use to play it, and that would require foreknowledge of the video playback software you use, or target a vulnerability in widely used libraries, and...

    How'd it go today?

    I know this has been settled, but I ran into this this evening... These scams have been going on for months, and one YouTuber claims they work through fake sponsors reaching out to creators. The YouTubers are then convinced to download a file related to the sponsorship, which is just malware...

    Lacebark elm. Scent is a bit like sassafras though.

    How'd it go today?

    Probably a filter, but not intentional exactly. My phone has different 'quick' settings; Photo, portrait, video, pro... Well, 'pro' seems to shoot in sepia. I could probably change it in the settings, but I like sepia. Different modes can be picked from an on screen menu that slides back and...

    How'd it go today?

    Finished the silver maple removal today with Mike. He did another fine job climbing. My 661 is cutting circles. Annoying, and it makes it particularly hard when cutting from two sides. I'm gonna break it down for cleaning tomorrow, and I'll give it a good look over. It's probably my chain with...

    How'd it go today?

    I could send you a piece of wood. This stuff's been down a couple years, and is still fragrant when cut. @Mellow ID'd it for me. I still didn't pay it much mind, but it was a suspended piece, so probably good for burning this year. I couldn't see the nice shape in the jumble of wood, and didn't...

    How'd it go today?

    Got started on next year's firewood, and a little bit for this year. Stuff for this year I concentrated on deadwood that was suspended off the ground, and preferably branches that didn't require splitting. One small exception was a piece of lacebark elm... This wood is gorgeous, and has a...

    Careful with the editors Knotty. It smells a little funny to me. Not sure what the end game is, but I suspect they want something.

    How'd it go today?

    It was a low key eventful day. Did my usual dumb work, and on the way back to the office, I stopped at the consignment shop. Picked up some shorty Fiskars loppers, and another Fiskars pole pruner. Couldn't pass the pruner up for $10.80. I think it'll be worth having as a dedicated pruner, and...

    How'd it go today?

    Got off work early, and worked a bit on the pond job. Got both my cs490, and 2511t stuck, and they suffered the ignominy of being rescued by Old Smoky. Otherwise, it went alright. I think I'm done cutting to firewood length. You only need so much willow firewood. Got some wood freehand milled...

    How'd it go today?

    IMO, once it fell over it ceased being a snag. It was then just a fallen tree. Dunno if there's a special word for that.
