People from the NE shaming folks from California? Last time i looked (in 2020 election) the entire NE is blue. Maybe your from NE Alabama or Texas? My grandma always said people in glass houses....

How bout ya'll knock off the political BS in this thread? If you want to do that, perhaps pick one of the "rona" virus threads to do that?
I didn't have an opportunity to do anything on the Kubota today. There, back on track.

Back on track it is... Finished moving the rocks to the dock and my son stacked them. We will be doing the other side this weekend.

That’s some pretty straight logs. Are you select/cull cutting or clearing a spot for a particular purpose? Hope you know someone or have a sawmill of your own. That’s a lotta money laying on the ground.

Condensate drain under the drive out basement slab at Dad’s house plugged with a combination of roots and lime. We had snaked it out twice recently to where it was keeping up but that turned out to be a temporary fix. There were many, many roots in the 100’ flexible plastic pipe run. Dug it up at the PVC part adjacent to the slab. Cut a little chunk out and had the drain running as it’s supposed to quite quickly.
Dad said something about digging the 50’ trench with a mattock. I basically said, I worked all day, I’m getting tired, take a break and we’ll dig the ditch 6’ at a time. I ain’t up for messing with a mattock. A backhoe would be nice for the 50’ reroute run but the loader works pretty well for relatively shallow stuff.

The logging is part of the forest management plan that we have been following for the past 25 years .
In this case, we will be doing a commercial harvest and the logs are going to be sold to a nearby sawmill.
By the time the harvest is completed the canopy will be opened by about 80% and a new understory forest will emerge over the ensuing decades.
Used my B2601 as a stepladder. Pallet on the pallet forks. Started and moved it. Stopped again. Started and moved it. The dynamo instead of an alternator doesn't charge much with that usage. It got a little lazy starting. Need to give it a proper run tomorrow - may mow something.

Nice looking logs there. You sawing them out or selling them?
Here in our part of Wi fruitcakes regeneration is almost impossible with the deer population we have here. Lucky for you your woods can recover with that severe of a cutting. My daughter is a DNR forester here and says it is a serious problem for any new growth at all.....just sayin.
I’ve heard that noise before. I didn’t laugh when I heard it. Sorta like hitting your funny bone, ain’t nuttin’ funny bout that, either. Everybody else laughs though.

Didn't do anything with tractor but lined up stuff I'm getting for it.
Probably be OCD but I got some grease fitting caps, never tried them before, might keep dirt out of fitting might be PIA.
Got a quick release grease coupler for my new DeWalt cordless grease gun.
on another note, do I understand this correctly
The state of California gives you cancer?

This is one of our work detail mowers, they don’t care about anything, especially greasing a mower.
Turned out to be a $450 act of laziness.

Didn't you get the memo? Rotating parts don't need greasing ... at least that's the PM dogma according to some here.

Hooked the tractor up to the generator around 5:30am and ran it for an hour and half so wife could get ready for work. Power went out at 9:15 the night before when a big tree fell off a bank and wiped out the main feed line for our side of the town and the town next to us.
i have a few friends who used to make fun of how much time i spend doing maintenance on my equipment. On my trailers, i pull and grease the wheel bearings once a year. The tractor gets washed on a regular basis, and greased at a minimum every 10 hrs, i coat everything with rust film before storage etc. i even do full checks on my vehicles once a month. my new truck may have the TPMS installed; however i will still check the tires.
an ounce of prevention is better than a pound of broken crap. (probably messed that quote up)
There is some deer pressure here too but there will enough mature trees remaining that the effects of browsing should not be an issue.
A larger issue is, once the canopy is opened and sunlight can penetrate to the forest floor, large ferns seem to proliferate and choke out other growth.
