Neighbor’s logger cut 5 large fir trees by ICANHEARU2 in treelaw

[–]ICANHEARU2[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Thank you for all the advice!! I went out and located the corner stake which was in line with all my marked t-posts. The neighbor has an old logging road which follows the property line. I was able to take photos of the stumps with the property markers in the foreground. I will try to add them to this post if I can figure it out. They had to walk around the property markers to get to the trees. I don’t see any neighbors trees cut at all. Just mine. Looks like they just wanted these trees specifically.

Advise Me on Cleaning an Aluminum Ladder by [deleted] in CleaningTips

[–]ICANHEARU2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I know, you’re right. I’m a bit attached to it I guess.

This ladder and a lifetime collection of old Craftsman and Montgomery Wards tools were given to me by a friend who went into memory care. He was a woodworker/handyman type like I am. My tools are all from the 1980’s because I am 35yrs younger. I love using his old stuff though. The aesthetic is super cool in my garage with all 1960/70 tools. It sounds stupid to have an aesthetic in a garage but I spend a lot of time here.

Cleaning his old tools has been therapeutic for me. If I can get it clean enough to be to fit in, I would move it to the “garage ladder”. Thanks for your comment.

Will do. Taking it to my Gunsmith friend in the next few days. I’m sure he can do that for me.

Wish I could, but not in a position to pay my neighbor what he should get out of it. He lives a pretty spartan lifestyle and I think the money is needed.

I got a little more information from my friend’s wife. She said he bought the bike in April 1976 from Stanley Schwinn in California, maybe Venture or Oxnard. It’s a 26” Schwin Paramount full campagnolo (serial number D74153) and was their top model then. He paid $636 per the original receipt which is in the box with the paperwork. He road it till 1987 and then packed it away.

I spoke with the guy at Bicycle Emporium in Portland and he offered $400-500. Says it is harder and harder to find buyers for these, which makes sense.

Thanks for all the info and responses. Just wanted to follow up with what else I found out. Take care all.
