No,AK, its a little out of place!- underneath that roll is about a 20'chute that leads to the de-barking drum- 70' behind that mess is the ladder conveyor and it was full of logs! all the work was done with a crane and from either side over the side walls from a man lift!-
JP- im sure you seen things like this-but that was tri- braze steel- it nearly flattened itself back out as we cut and pulled it out!-it had all the slack out of that chain!

Fortunately, I haven't attempted the paint matched thing yet. This will most likely save time, grief and one of those Homer reactions.

So, I finally brought the last load last night. Everything I own, but my heart, is here now. My heart is still in SLC. Maybe that will change over time. I was really hoping to be done quicker, but I had some water pressure issues I had to resolve right out of the chute. Wound up "modifying" the regulator until I can get the correct replacement. So, the house is t full pressure from the city, which is sitting at about 65 psi.... totally acceptable, but if they have a pressure spike, it could make problems on my water softener.
I've got the paired DSL lines, which run a lot faster than I had thought. Seems to stream a lot better than my single line in SLC. Also got my VoIP set up last night. What a slick, slick setup that little OBIhai box is. I am running a Google voice number out of it, which appears to be a regular phone number. Google now has a spam call filter that requires the caller to state their name before they will place the call.... so if it is a recording, it will cut them off and not place the call.

Yeah... they are doing that here too. I was getting 3 to 5 calls a day from an interactive voice recording from "Chris or Lisa" who were selling solar panels. All of them had the same area code and prefix.
Best thing about the Google Voice is, it is free. I paid for the box, and it runs thought my phone I already had. You can have it forward to a couple cell phones if you want too. I will use that feature when we are on vacation.
This is it if you are interested.

I wish I could. I don't think my internet out here could support it though. It's pretty cool either way and I'm going to look into it and check their specs.

Just curious what you guys have for input on this....
At what speed do you see your best mpg's? Mine seemed to be at 70 mph, at right around 2100 rpm when I've done a long trip before (I got 19 mpg). I've been going 80 mph the last couple days though, and although I have not filled it up to check, the gas gauge seems to be going down slower than usual.
I'll tell you what... this F150 put in some work these past couple months getting me moved.

No longer stuck in 2003
Best mileage I saw on mine so far is going 65 steady for hours at a time (15.6 mpg). Keeping it around 1700 RPM the whole time. When I bump up to 70 (~1900 RPM) it drops a little for me. Of course I haven't really been keeping a close eye on it recently after some of the fixes I've done.
