The stack looks good Jesse! Looks like you have some good helpers as well

Fourth, and hopefully last, ton of pellets. I gave up the cutting, splitting, and stacking a while ago.

Let the fire go out this morning. Got it going about 1630. She is rollin good now!! God I love wood heat.
Somerset is the best burning brand of pellet I've ever used, hands down.

My wood pile is gone. Dave came with his dump trailer and we created 2 loads. He was happy. Now off to pick up 6 acres of winter sticks to prepare for grass mowing season.

Dad and I had another great morning. Got 3 saw logs off that sycamore plus firewood from tops. If ya have 7 minutes of your life to waste I made a video just to see if I could. Enjoy.

The saw is a clone stilhl ms660 by farmertec. 92cc. Went that route as it is a kit saw. Essentially a grown up LEGO set you put together. Learned a ton about chainsaws while assembling it. Plus about 75% less than a real stihl. It’s perfect for the few times I need a big saw.
The dozer is the contractor that Is dumping the dirt dad is receiving from the road project. I will post pics of the boards. Will probably start a new thread for the gazebo build.

I could never bring myself too burn that one!!!!
me either. I'd figure out a way to hang that on the wall someplace. that is funny. 
With a squirrel on it?me either. I'd figure out a way to hang that on the wall someplace. that is funny.
Just cut that in a 1-2" thick slab and keep!
I'm off to the local Stihl dealer after lunch for a new 311 or 391. The Poulan Pro 42cc/18" combo I received 20yrs ago is still hanging on but at end of life after this last weekend. Will keep to delimb or a backup to use if in a pinch with the new one. It's like Christmas Eve

Wife’s uncle got a 391 about 2 months ago. Swapped the installed 25” bar for a 20”. It’s a damn fine saw so far!
Appreciate that response, both models currently in front of me, including a 391 w/25"......believe I'm gonna go 311 /20".

I have a 311 it is a good saw but it can be a bit of a bitch to start. They need to spin at a faster rate to create a spark than other stihl saws. Other than that I also run a 20" bar. Has good power.
Flooded it right out of the gates as soon as I brought her home. Was able to clear it by holding throttle open, which makes me feel better knowing it can be done in the field without pulling plugs n such. I appreciate your info for sure and will remember as I work to grow our relationship together. Just like a women, need to understand her sounds for what gets her fired up.

Good medium use saw Adam. I’ve got the 310 and 290 both with 18” bars. They take the same chains so I have about 100 of those.
