A bit of luck

[mistahbenn]

Dismantled this large Sycy yesterday, then felled the stick, to find that right in the hinge, was a bit of iron. Lucky to miss it with the 88! Was also completely hollow and I could stand in the hole up to my neck.

Hell mate- that was well lucky. I hit a gate crook with my 088 wearing a 3foot bar the day before yesterday, which was about 8foot up an ash tree that i waas ringing after i had felled it. Maybe that was why you didnt hit yours. Could have been worse- i took the four foot bar off just befor i started the job!!

I love farm jobs!

Good job you left a nice hinge.

 

If any of you need any help finding metal in butts give me a shout. I'm getting pretty good at it just after I've put a new chain on the 66.

With my luck I'd have hit it

Times Iv'e hit metal felling' stump grinding, nearly thinking about a metal detecter when pricing/ working, pay for itself in no time, and find where the missus hides the change from shopping!
