I was splitting in the morning and needed a break. I have been looking at this dead Ash for a while. I decided to cut it down. This was all that was left, just a straight pole. I tried a piece and it burned great!!.

FireAnt, looks like nice piece of asssssssssssssh!

460 and a bucket thats all you got!
 
Thanks for admiring may Ash Zap.........

Jay, try a 360, and a pile of wood, cutting everything to size so I can split it... Wielding the 28" bar to cut 2-10" pieces would have been interesting...lol

I just needed a change of pace so I cut the tree down. It was my birthday yesterday so my wife said what are you going to do special this morning (I had some time to myself). It was either get some practice time in on my sax with a cup of coffee in my warm studio or go cut and split in the 17* weather. You see which one won!!

I know you were kidding... I have to keep myself in check because I want to cut with the 460 so bad. I have not used it yet (I cut one piece of wood with it) I HAVE to get the splitting done. The tractor is my dads, there isn't a snowballs chance in hell I would driving it, if he didn't buy it (that was when his business was good).

I went to college for music performance in Classical and Jazz saxophone. I am a stay at home dad (my dad had to let me go due to wonderful economic times), teach privately and play out. My musician friends can't get over how I just want to cut wood and be outdoors. Not the typical musician lifestyle...
