How an OFG fells a tree

Post about everything from carrying a handkerchief to manly skills (sharpening a pocket knife, etc), to product reviews of items that may have slipped inder our radar (ie Grandpa's Pine Tar soap). No threads on anything 'new' unless it hearkens to old-fashioned sensibilities and ideals.

Those big saws are pretty cool. Pull, don't push. And rub it down with turpentine when sawing pine, to keep it from sticking.
