How'd it go today?

That pic is a 55 yo Jeweler, a 26 yo sky scraper builder and some other dude.

It's a crazy cross section if people united by the motorcycle....Crazy big network of people.


There is a guy I ride with....he figures a million miles on a moto.....50 years at 20k a year....

Are you leery of riding in the rain?

 

[SoonerFan]

What do you have for a big grinder, Willie?

Big stumps?

lol

[SoonerFan]

I'm pooped. Dug a 30' trench by hand for a gas line.

 

[Bodean]

More focused on minute inputs.
Less slop.

 

[Bodean]

Nice ditch, Dennis!

 

[treebilly]

Nice ditch is right! Awfully straight for a hand dig. That looks to be at least a six pack worth of digging there.

 

[SoonerFan]

Thx

 

[FireFighterZero]

I understand the AC unit, but what the heck do you need natural gas for in Oklahoma?

Stove maybe? Certainly not for the cold weather!

 

[SoonerFan]

First item in the pic behind the a/c unit is a pool heater. Then next (the vertical thing) is the filter.

 

[FireFighterZero]

Haha! Fancy!

Thats living!

 

[Fiddler]

Sweet! And in time to fill it and go skating!

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Nice. That would be worthy of a 30 foot hand dug trench.
I cheated
I had a quite a bit more than 30....

 

[Raj]

Nice! Guess you couldn't run some of the gas line through the house? Or even copper pipe along the brick?

 

[SoonerFan]

Shortest path was from the gas meter in the foreground of the pic to the heater in the background.

 

[Raj]

Before the meter or after the meter.

4400-4 Carlton. Got an alpine mag coming this week or next, getting calls for hard to reach stumps and still getting referrals from when i had one before

 

[cory]

Nice!

 

[Bodean]

Oh good. Looking forward to more Alpine Magnum stories.

 

[treebilly]

Day didn't go to well. Had some equipment issues and got done a bit late. Made it home in time to take the girls trick or treating. We had fun and they both passed out shortly after. Good stuff. The end of the day was good

 

[MasterBlaster]

At least the day ended well!

 

[Grendel]

Dug into chippy tonight. Mostly cosmetic stuff past this. . . I want to replace one feed motor coupler. Maybe some paint from bandit if that's a thing they do. . . haha

 

[cory]

Sick shop!!

 

[timbertramp]

I was able to do some cutting on a crane job today. Still don't have 100% use of the left thumb. But it's healing well. Was really nice to get a break from bidding jobs and managing the shop and crews while the boss is off logging. Was having so much fun i forgot to take pictures lol. Lil Olli hit the jack pot trick or treating, i don't think naps are on his calendar for the next month, very little sugar sure goes a long way in that one.
