    Chainsaw + No PPE = TROUBLE!

    Seems like "Holding my foot on the LEG while cutting" has a better fit here... I wonder how this guy managed to recover from this terrible injury. SA

    Firewood Seller Charged With Felony Theft By Deception

    If I may add some: God's name ceased to be pronounced by mainstream jewish people around 2500 years ago. So, hard to tell exactly how it was spoken. Only the High Priest would utter it through ceremony until the temple was destroyed 70AC. Lesser priests started using "Adonai" - Our Lord. The...

    Brand new Husky 450 problem

    Well, Thank you all for replying! 7Sleeper, feels to me like you've nailed it! The burn shape on the bottom of the cover matches the burned plastic mark on the top of the exhaust. Probably this is exactly what happened - lifting the back of the cover in a tilt that drives the front end into the...

    Brand new Husky 450 problem

    My firewood cutting partner called me over for a beer and for first starting of his shiny new orange. So after running it for almost a full tank cutting small diameter wood to go easy on it, we noticed this groove that looks like got melted by muffler heat. Except for that it felt and sounded...

    Please Read

    Sorry to read about your loss. Seems like you and your dad had a special relationship there. I believe you made an outstanding gift to him, his being able to do real work alongside his son, now that's rare and goes a long way for a man the age many get to just sit home and grumble bout the...

    Can't find original thread - outdoor log burning

    Also there's another version, like a rocket stove cut into a log. Tried it once on a 15" diameter log, worked great, burned for 2 days. Like here. SA

    "Natural campfire bundles"

    My guess is Lady Gaga can't reverse a truck up to a firewood shed for the life of her, not to mention with a trailer behind, so there you go, don't bother. SA

    Craigslist laughs

    Possibly the guy tried to ask if any hurricane-damage-clearing-company wants to rid itself of logs? Who knows, maybe he even read about it here... He does ask for seasoned stuff too, though... SA

    I said sorry, do I owe more?

    Well, having started your post with "I was on the wrong", You already KNOW that. You will probably not make friends with the landowner, neither change his character, at 70yo (-: ..... Him being abusive, well, couldva called the police on you, too. Still can...! Hopefully you won't meet him...

    Fiskars

    You are a serious, just man. I even think you are being a little on the lenient side, as your family members have KNOWLEDGE of its existence. One can never know how the uninitiated may react. SA

    Fiskars

    But how then could be non-believers made to convert to the Fiskult?? (The way I see it, there should be some mumbling in Swedish during First Splitting With A Fiskars ritual, answered by a congressional "Wow!" Just saying. SA

    Fiskars

    Does anybody protects their fiskars w/ a rope collar?? You know some HUMBLE people tie a few loops of rope around where the handle of the maul goes in the head, to protect the handle in case of an over-strike... Usually AFTER a couple of handles were chewed until the head became separated and...
