Sure looks nice. Makes me want land with trees again. Nice work on the mill base.Are you going to try to construct a mill shelter first thing? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Looking good down there Don! Why aren't the boys out there Turkey Hunting? They should be hard to miss given the size of those tracks!
That's some quick movement Don. Nice job! I think that cement was a military invention to quickly repair runways that had been bombed and like a lot of things make their way to civilian use.

Little Pre-Ranger asks me if he can go shoot it. Knowing that 1. he would never get within a hundred meters of it. But in the off chance that he actually connected the dots, I'd have been stuck pulling feathers all day in lieu of building the sawmill base

But for future reference, if you didn't already know, dip it in a pot of hot water, slosh it around a bit, then proceed to plucking. If done right the feathers come out eaiser and faster..... Or build one these....It's a a home crafted plucker. We built one and then sold it recently for the lack of use and because I'm not taking it with me in our next move....I have the plans so I'll build another one when we get settled in. Makes plucking chickens and turkeys way mo betterer!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Another build thread??
I used to have a customer who built commercial units & we cut them from stainless & rolled / welded the barrels. So Dawg your idea isn't too far fetched.
Don would just hold them in the exhaust of the whirlybird and it would blow the feathers off and roast it to perfection. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
No I sure it came naturally. The army had to learn to keep up with the carnageSent from my iPad using Tapatalk
Man! They have been at it again I see...Still loosely on chickin-pluckin' however deviated a bit to egg beaters I see...Never hit a chicken with a rotorcraft, but probably nearly everything else. Watched this echelon of seagulls lazily flying past a bunch of our Chinooks which were running on the ground in Key West NAS prior to taxi...One by one the seagulls were sucked into the rotor systems meeting their fate with this big blossum of white feathers and red goo. At the end only one of the seagulls went mindlessly flying forward as I watched the other Chinooks shutting back down, now having to do a bird strike inspection! They missed me, flight lead, the last of the hooks. I watched this guy fly on wondering what he would think when he landed all alone...I guess helicapeters are those monsters in the dark for seagulls...except that this was like 0900 in the morning.

bet that chipper works on KIA parts too....And terrorists and yippie neighbor dogs....
Don, You must have the worlds most understanding wife... Does she have to park out of the street now? Your left two garage stalls are taken by the project not to be named, now the right stalls taken by all manner of equipment and motorcycles. Then the drive full of trailers and the big black thing.. :) Where does GJ go? I know... it's only temporary except perhaps the two left stalls.
I imagine it like Moses parting the waters!
