I had to do that with my L3010 belt too. I bought a new seat belt belt for dozer and 2 weeks later it was chewed in half by some critter. I guess it doesn't pay to get a new belt. gg

Last March the top of a pine broke off and landed in the access to where I keep my summer/dirt work implements. I couple days ago I hooked a choker onto it and dragged it out into the woods and out of the way. Today I put the BearCat manual feed chipper on the M5640. And cleaned...

How about a back-pack blower. I see state park guys using them. They blow out the trench and then clean up the road with a rake or blow the leaves across. Not sure what they use but they sound very powerful and blow sticks and small stones as well as leaves. gg

In my case the shed is supported mainly by the 6 flat stones. The thickness of the stones vary to make a level plane to lay the sill on. When I finished the sill the right side was pretty much at ground level and the left side was up about 8" off the ground. I dumped in 3/4" washed stone and...

FWIW I built a 10' X 16' shed on a slight side hill - don't know if it fits your situation though. Our ground is very solid and rocky and we also have deep frost, but I didn't want to dig. I removed what little sod there was at the corners and the centers of the long walls and used flat stones...

Telescoping cylinder (y) (y)(y) the way to go. Beautiful work there ! gg

That makes that pile of split wood even more impressive (y)(y)(y)(y) gg

Is that a wood processor I see ?? 👍👍 gg

Saturday I cut a fir for stud wood. After cutting the rot of the butt end there wasn't enough sweep room to get it out in one piece so I cut it into three saw logs. Makes for more choker work especially when the top log plows up a load of slash in front of it and the slash pushes off the choker...

Glad you recovered your tank w/o issue - that is good ! Your roof makes a pretty good sail. If you just anchor the bottom just the roof may get ripped off next time. Don't ask how I know this. gg

I took care of a couple roadside problems yesterday. This tall skinny fir had uprooted and was hanging down over the bank with the top out in the road. So I cut it off and dragged it back into the woods to add to the coarse woody debris that is all ready there there. The second one was...

Many people think a woodshed is to much work especially when you air dry it first before you put it in the shed. But it suits me fine. If I put a third bay on the shed so that it would hold 3 years wood I would not have to air dry it - could split it right into the shed and save some work. gg

Correct - as soon as the ground dries up I will split it and and roughly stack it in open rows to air dry. Come late summer I will put in the section of wood shed that I emptied this last winter. My shed holds two winters worth. gg

A lot of that kind of work is not fun. You have the road cleaned up nicely. What will you do with the debris? gg

Finished blocking up our firewood last week gg
