THE CALM ONE!!!!
I doubt many people could hold a 44 dressed with a 24" at full arm extension single handed. I mean I could do it by the handlebar but by the throttle grip straight out, never.
But I still get the point Burnham. I destroyed my hands through over exerting myself.

Hell yeah
Fully agree. Remember the knuckle head on here a few years ago who said he could hold out a 395 w/28" bar, or some such, by the rear handle??? lol

Finished up this job, bearing in mind the chipper is down the whole thing went spookily well, everything that could have gone wrong didn’t go wrong.
Client was ok with fires.
Wind took the smoke away from other houses.
No breakdowns.
No hold ups, hang ups or cock ups.
Ground stayed dry enough to get the timber lorry off the track into the wood, today it’s pissing down..

Nice Mick.
Fires can be awesome way to do tree work... especially when the temps drop.
Please tell me you took a shovel full of embers to cook up the bacon sarnies for snap break?

I love burning jobs I wish I could do more of them.

It was a grand old time last year on the coldest day of the year -- 4 degrees F. Ripping bonfire for all the brush to keep warm as needed, feed it with the grapple.

Client started and "controlled" the fires. No waiting -- just keep feeding it & adding to the pile; infinite room there on a country property out in county jurisdiction. Just burned the brush; he kept most of the logs.

Two weeks out, I have a burning job half an hour away (5-10) is my normal.
Only one truck and loader, 21 trees, more than half are fully dead.
New homeowner... Old homeowner chainsaw girdled a row of 16. Should be nice and light, ready to burn. Mix green branches in with the dry. Wood onsite.
Yay, no chipping!
No fine raking, either.

Depends on the chipper and the fire.

And water content.
Easier to put grapple piles in a fire than a chipper, without worry about rocks/foreign material.
Bring a metal pipe that has an end in the fire, with the blower far enough away, possibly behind a half sheet of plywood (radient heat), tape the blower hose to the pipe and idle the blower. Burns fast.
I'll pass fire duties to the homeowner at 5pm.
