Diiiiizzzzzaaaammm. Sucks for those folks. Harsh, harsh toke. I hope the wind stays favorable for ya @Joebud.

You guys talking about being done w/firewood got me off my ass. Went out yesterday and burned up a few tanks. I need to sharpen my chains and then hit it hard.

I'm one of the "one saw" guys as well. Stihl MS391...20" bar. I've only had a few trunks here that gave it a run for the money. Most stuff here is smaller unless you tackle a cottonwood or score some Ponderosa Pine. We heat solely with wood...and I have 3 stoves....so the Stihl, the splitter, and my chain sharpener get a good workout every year. Oh yeah...and my fucking back. Fuckin' old people. Gotta play while i still can though.

Got a good stack piled up down by the garage for the contest run. I'm at least not gonna go down in flames because it's too cold in there. :cautious:

PICK YOUR OWN
Been working on getting my shed/shop built.
It's a paycheck to paycheck kinda build, slow process.
Finally got the outside weathered in and finished.
Gonna save a corner for a 3x3 setup and finally have more growing room.
My buddy gave me his Blackdog 400 a few years back, anxious to get it going.
Here are a few pics of the progression, and still a ton to do to finish the interior.
Sorry so pic heavy!

My daughter and son in law own 6 acres of timbered land in Or.
He bought a saw mill and has been having fun with that.
He cut me full size 10',12',13 and 14' 2x6s for the floor joist and roof rafters!

This old man can't throw a bundle of 3 tab on a shoulder and climb up a ladder anymore....fact!
Built a make shift skid/lift so I could pull them up, still not easy!

Got it painted with a primer and 2 coats of final paint just before the shitty weather hit.
Have all of the wiring ran and boxes up, next is insulation and drywall...ugh!

Now I'm on the lookout for a good deal on a quality 3x3 tent?

Looks way better than homedepot lumber! It's looks incredibly straight.

Man nice job on your new shed.. love it...

Also Mr Slowdrwl, do yourself a favor and DONT go the cheapest route when buying a tent( ipower, zappy, cool grows, etc)
& get a Ac infinity or a gorilla lite brand tent is my choices for ya...

I went the cheapest route couple years ago when I bought my " cool grows brand" 2x2 veg tent.. Started sum beans, all was good until the vegging plants hit maturity at bout 4 weeks in when every plant in tent, 1 by 1 turned herm cause I took for granted the tent was 100% light leak free, like my flower tent which is a Ac infinity.... That's what I got for going the cheapest route...

Yes it was my fault that I didn't check tent before hand but save yourself the trouble of worring bout light leaks, and go with a Ac infinity or gorilla lite..
Just my 2 cents
Good luck ✌

Thx man!
My current 2x4 is a Gorilla Lite and is 6 years old and needs to be replaced, I've just totally worn it out.
It's in a dark storage room that gets little activity so no leak issues there.
Not sure how much life to expect from one but I'd guess 5 years might be my average.
Been thinking of an Ac Infinity, I'll probably go that route.
Thx for your insight!
