    Tool for trimming stumps

    For stump removal since I cannot afford to rent or buy a stump grinder: I dig around stump with a shovel then cut it as low to the ground as I can with chainsaw with smallest bar being careful not to touch dirt as this will dull chain almost instantly, then put the dirt back. Or, I use saw saw...

    Which saw, MS361-MS440

    If I could do it all over again I would have a 260 and a 440. Yes the 361 is an excellent all around one saw, but it is much better to have two saws: one for small and one for big. I would stay away from 441 & 460 more weight that I do not need. Good luck, and please tell us what saw you purchased.

    Cordless drill rebuild? How?

    I believe Dewalt power drills have warranties for 3 years. They should repair/replace it for free. Good luck.

    MS250 or 270?

    When it comes to tools you will get what you are willing to pay for. My vote is for the MS260. If that is out of your budget get the MS280, its about the same weight of MS270 with more power. Avoid that MS250. It is a light duty tool when compared to the others. Get an 18", avoid what size...

    Fuel question

    I believe the Stihl manual says use only fresh gas up to 60 days old. I use a one gallon container that way I go through it more often.

    favorite saw shop employee fired

    Well said Timberhauler. That makes me feel good when I go to a small business and support the local guy. There are more important things in life other that money and material possessions. Material possessions make me feel good for a short period of time then I just get used to it. What is really...
