Wood cutting at John's last Saturday

[Deleted member 10829]

As John mentioned in the journal, I have a few more pictures to post and a few duplicates.

rp7x not only is a very talented wood cutter, he can also fall asleep, after a good meal and a few beers at The Cliffview, with a full beer in his hand and not spill a drop of that Creamy Dark!



John took a break from non-stop stacking to run his new Stihl through the paces.



Repeat pic from Journal of John and rp7x.

Why carry the wood when you can toss it 15 feet? Man, to only be young again. These guys worked very hard!

We missed you too Lenny! We did have plenty of help this time though, which was nice.

I don't think I will be able to make that, but would like to some year! I know rp7x was up working on trails in Twin Lakes 2 weekends ago. I have about 10 hours of mowing the trails in so far and about 4 more hours to go. I will be out cleaning up our trails on the 13th. The work never ends, but I do enjoy it.

Why are they cutting with the tips of there saw. That can be very dangerous. I have been cutting for 27yrs. I know from experience. Be very careful guys, kickback can happen very easily not to mention I would think it would be easier for the tip of your saw to come in contact with the sand and dull your chain faster.

kick what

i just rolled the log over and finishing the cut , when you learn what your saw can do , you won't get much kick back
