    My new toy

    well i got a screaming deal on a new to me saw. the guy let this shindaiwa go for $15 since it kept cutting out on him. i figured for the price i couldent go wrong. well the pickup tub in the tank gooed up and fell off so it could only pull fuel when it was completely full.

    fed a regular tub in for now but i need a new pickup to fix it right.

    so far i am digging it, from what i read they are good saws. so lets hope i can get a good few seasons out of it. got 160 psi cold compression so i should be ok

    We the rivers stemming, vexing we and piercing deep the mines
    within,
    We the surface broad surveying, we the virgin soil upheaving,
    Pioneers! O pioneers!

    What, you couldn't talk him into giving it to you?
    Never underestimate the power of the written word. Spelling is important, but poor sentence structure and bad puncuation are what can really come back to bite you on the ass.

    I will take the "Pullon," "green brick," and "Crapsman" chainsaws that you don't want.

    Human trash comes in all colors, including white.
