    Laser Log Marker

    He wasted even more time while he was walking around looking for his saw, which wasn't running to start with like the laser guy's saw.

    Best felling/splitting axe crosscut saw questions

    Good idea for an oiler. It may seem odd, but I have never required oil while in the cut. Maybe in green, sappy White Pine, but I don't saw too much of that. I spray my saw down after every use with WD-40 or some other rust preventative I have laying around (high carbon steel rusts really...

    Best felling/splitting axe crosscut saw questions

    Yes. I taught myself. In my opinion, it is only a little more difficult than sharpening a saw chain (we're talking worksaws not racing ones). However, it is much more time consuming. I like to do a nice job, so 4-6 hours is not out of the question. Take frequent breaks and don't let fatigue...

    Best felling/splitting axe crosscut saw questions

    Dalmation90 is right on with Tuatahi (pronounced too-ah-ta-hee). However, Bailey's is not the distributor for them anymore. This happened about 7 years ago. I spoke directly with the sales rep. at the time (Mike Wiliwand if remember correctly), he told me the reason they parted ways, but it...

    land clearing with husqvarna 365sp & 440xtorq

    I'm having the same problem. I don't have a solution though.

    Oh man! Don't start that #### again.

    stihl

    I almost ordered a set of the ones from Bailey's. I changed my mind and decided to do some reading first. The indecision came when I remembered someone saying that they were too big and tended to bog the saw down. I'm still not sure. Anyone running the Bailey's pro falling dogs on a...

    Lookit the little guy!

    I don't remember the cc's on the non x-torq 365's. I notice the new ones are the same as the new 372's, but I thought earlier models were actually closer to 65cc's. Would someone refresh my memory.

    New 372XP X-Torq, new to forum questions

    Thanks OT. That's the one that came on my saw. I'll run it.

    New 372XP X-Torq, new to forum questions

    So is the winter cover the shorter one? I assume so since you called it low profile. I'll be at the dealer on Saturday so I can follow up on it.

    question for you professional loggers

    Good question. My statement, more or less, quoted Dalmation90 in reference to tomatoes and corn being subsidised. I took it out of context and replaced corn and tomatoes with wood. Whether my statement was untrue was not the point. It was designed to emphasise the fact that Dalmation90...

    No opinions here. P.S. Husqvarna 372's are the best saw ever made. Ever.

    question for you professional loggers

    Yeah. You got it. That's the point right there. The author of this article is talking mostly about plantations. Trees only exsist there because of the economic incentives to keep them around and subsidies and markets created to use them. Like you said above. Same with corn, same with...

    question for you professional loggers

    This doesn't address the original question, but I don't like this whole "don't use paper....save the earth....save trees" deal. I use as much paper as I can. I use it like its going out of style. This strategy insures that trees will actually be "saved" because land and resources will be...

    New 372XP X-Torq, new to forum questions

    Ahhh. So it is conceivable that nobody messed with mine and I should just forget about it and run the saw and be happy. I'll tell you, that 372 is impressive. I've never run the non-strato 372, but this x-torq seems deserving of a little respect. I've only been able to run it for a...

    New 372XP X-Torq, new to forum questions

    Thanks for the confirmation. However, I am still confused as to why my air filter cover is shorter. I'm in the USA, ordered mine from the dealer last week. I got it in its original box and everything. Its an XPG. Is that the difference? The cover does not extend higher than the clips on...

    New 372XP X-Torq, new to forum questions

    Malk315, For the oiler, the manual says 3 turns out from the closed position for 20"-24" bars. They say that is only for Husqvarna brand oil though. I just got a new 372 myself. Only had it for a week. Haven't cut with it at all. I can't wait. Got alot of work for it. I agree...

    You're talking about summer kids, right? You know..........some are here........some are there.

    Some people!

    Good take on it, Zogger. I wasn't quite sure how I'd figure it, but you're reply was thoughtful and spot-on. This guy might be more trouble than the wood is worth. I know, I know, its Locust. People are just funny sometimes.
