And if I want, burn it in my new fire ring:

That's our camper in the ring.....

That fire ring is gorgeous! Did you have it made locally? Bummer that we have to drive so far to find "mountains" from central Michigan, huh.

It's hot now, but this was earlier this summer or spring...

Just hauling a bit. It isn't far away, so not too concerned about not hauling a ton. I split it out of the bucket usually so I don't have to lift.....

I got a saw haul:

I cut down this beast:

Haul it home:

Split it up:

This is how much of an IBC tote ONE piece got me:

Yeah, mountains are a long drive....

Fire ring is from a buddy I went to HS with (been a while ago, these days). Mesick, MI

Hard to see but my chainsaw bar had quite a bend in it and even the chain was bent a little, I got it straighten back out with a hammer to almost like new. I might even improved it now my saw has auto brake feature and now the bar has a nice gun barrel blue to the rails so it wont rust. Just in case it fails for some reason I'll fill out the 5 year Echo warranty card so I can get a new bar...

If you have a press this sort of setup works great on bars.

Thats a nice press the lack of paint tells me you built it, another one of them shop tools thats not needed all the time but at times it sure is needed. My younger son keeps talking about buying a HF press for his on going Jeep project.

I barely know. My F.I.L. was a dealer for the saw I use (the one on the tractor). An Efco, I think. I know nothing about it. Kungfu, I assume. Now that I have some time on it, I should run my dad's Stihl for comparison.... It isn't over-powered, for sure.

The one on the shelf is an ancient homelite. Though if I get my saw stuck, the grapple aids me, not a second saw.

Honestly, my dad usually drops blocked wood in my field. Before this, covid, year I have probably an hour on that saw. This year I cut up 10 or 15 cord through it. So, I'm pretty small-time.

We like the burn ring a lot, it's totally custom. I've been chopping up and burning busted up pallets. Keeps the nails contained... Though now we're camping again, so the ring just rusts/patinas.

All the bolts went in, the last one came to sudden stop half way so a little alignment needed.

The last part was putting drag cables on.

Things went pretty good til then.

I really like your rebar bolts. Just remember....If you can't do it with force you need a bigger hammer.........
