There are regulations in and around cities and towns.
Also the State subsidizes the change over from old, inefficient stoves to new ones.
Newest thing is, if you buy a house with an old stove, you have to change it for a new model.

Air pollution.

Ok so far.
Richard has been working with the State forest the last ½ year, to see if it is economically viable to do first time thinnings in naturally griown stuff ( As opposed to planted in nuice roiws).
They are crunching numbers now.
If it works out, plenty of work, if not, we'll mist likely sell it.

I like how you laid out those photos/video clips, Mick.

That's the law here in my part of Oregon, too. When a property changes hands, the wood burning appliance in that house has to meet current DEQ emissions standards for the county to move the sale documents.
I don't like it either.
But I do understand it. Right now here in the Willamette valley and foothills east or west, over the last few years, there have been many instances where woodstove and fireplace use has been banned for days or even weeks when air quality issues are forecast, basically thermal inversions and no to little winds from either the ocean or the interior...unless that's the only heat source in your home.
Theoretically, if more woodstoves meet the standards, less restrictions will occur.
Theoretically
.An aside, but to a point in your post...cooking appliances are considered differently from home heating stoves...so few homes these days cook on wood burning stoves/ovens that the law makers carved out a little exemption for them...here, anyway.

Possible, and I do it with hedges and the like, but miscalculating weight, ending in a topple is not worth it.

@cory
It is a 36" bar and every inch of it was needed
@CurSedVoyce
70 something feet to the tie in point (see pic). Each piece needed to be lowered because of the electrical lines that were close enough to be a concern. Once we were lower than the lines, the tree went down. We found a lot of rot which quieted down a neighbor that did not want the tree to come down.

@Patrick A. Try using full image or whatever rather than thumbnail when loading, makes them easier to look at.
Umbrella pine, not small, 11 cubic mètres of chip. All went swimmingly.

Yes, nice Kubota tractor btw.

Thanks. That was yesterday's setup. a 12ft trailer to load stuff and the borrowed race car trailer for the tractor. The race car trailer is nice but limited due to its lack of sides. It was the first job using the loader. Coming home without a sore back justified the small loader.

It’s a game changer all right. If you can, get a winch for the back, excellent counterweight and very useful.

I can’t remember if I’m honest (if you're talking about the winch) tractor sold now, but winch still in the barn.

the winch is a better use than the ballast box for sure
