Does that boom you were using have a brand name on it?

Dad has one just like it, but there are no markings on it. I've always wondered what brand it was.

Evening Everyone. 8 degrees???? Balmy weather I must say. I just got back from spending 10 days in McAllen Texas, went down there to visit my parents, they spend their winters there. It was the coldest there since 1981. We only had 2 days of decent weather 60 degrees "F" the rest of the time the temp only managed to get to around 40 degrees. But I must say it sure beats the -27 degrees "C" that we are in right now. For my American freinds thats -14 degrees "F" below zero. Im heading to he woods tomorrow with my 52 TEA-2085 to cut wood. Stay well everyone

 Well we make up for that Re: You call that a log l in reply to mike a. tenn., 01-29-2007 10:35:08  
Well, we make up for that with beautiful 115* days in July, not a cloud in the sky or a drop of water in sight, with gentle breezes of blowing dust! That figures out to a balmy 85* year round average temperature! right! Oh my Woodache back! ;))

PS: we haul all that wood in here to, cause the only trees here are the ones in planted in people yards ;((
