I was wondering if they're are any fellow lumberjacky kinda people around NS, and what brand of axe they perfer the most. I like the Fiskars Power Axe the most, much better made than other brands.

Not to say he's bad looking, because he's not. It's the personality that throws it off, is all.

Monty Python Im A Lumberjack Lyrics
I'm a lumberjack and I'm OK
I sleep all night and I work all day
(He's a lumberjack and he's OK
He sleeps all night and he works all day)
I cut down trees, I eat my lunch
I go to the lavat'ry
On Wednesdays I go shopping
And have buttered scones for tea
(He cuts down trees...)
(He's a lumberjack...)
I cut down trees, I skip and jump
I love to press wild flow'rs
I put on women's clothing
And hang around in bars
(He cuts down trees...)
(He's a lumberjack...)
I cut down trees, I wear high heels
Suspenders and a bra
I wish I'd been a girlie
Just like my dear mama

I flew to Maxton today (an aircraft graveyard) and just looking at those big 747s and DC-10s next to my Warrior (not mine, rented) was pretty amazing. I'm going back but with tools. Do you think Northwest Airline would miss a 747 Yoke?

FAA requires you to commit to about 30-40 (remember this is Government estimate) hours of dual time (with an instructor) and 10 hours of solo time. There is also ground school. To get a more realistic picture, add about 10 hours to your dual, solo, and ground.

You can go to any bookstore and buy an FAR/AIM 2007 book, it's a big ass blue book with an airplane on it.
It's basically a big book of rules and regulations.

We'll see once you settle down with the opposite sex because it makes mommie happy, or finally take the full step out of the closet without sticking one diversionary foot in the grav... I mean, heterosexuality. ;)

Lol will see they are not a part of that life either way for me ... I do what feels right
If that changes over to full gay so be it, or hetro for that matter. I do not predict that after these years but ... whatever works

Hahaha. Nice to see you're not as uptight about bisexuality as you used to be, Fass. As I recall, you used to seriously hate the idea.

No matter how many times I explain this, people just don't seem to get it. I was just reciprocating that old "I think everyone truly is bisexual" nonsense so many bisexuals were spouting by claiming that no one was bisexual to show how ugly it was to tell people what they "truly" are.
Personally, I couldn't care less about the existence of bisexuality or not, as I just stay clear of them relationship-wise. I don't need the drama.

To be honest all silliness aside I have used them... and found them not worth it
Maybe I just grew up with old farmer mentality but I use an old double sided or single wood handled axe of no particular breed

Well the reason I love them is the amount of abuse they can take, and the carbon steel blade. Thats sharp as hell.
Its the only axe I've seen go through pressure treated wood with ease.

Are you splitting wood, or chopping down trees?
If you're splitting wood, this is what my father made me use, before I moved out and he got a hydraulic splitter (http://www.northerntool.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/NTELargeImageView?storeId=6970&catalogId=4006970&langId=-1&rfno=13415&zoomId=none&moreImages=none&fullTime=none&totalSounds=none&rotate=none).
If you're chopping down trees, I don't have a recommendation.

Both. I do alot of chopping down trees.
I have one of those, I use it to split wood larger than 12inches in diameter.
That Fiskars axe really cant split wood any bigger than 12 inches.
When it comes to chopping down trees, you rreally cant find a better axe. It goes through oak and maple like butter.
