    Green Giant

    We have 5 Thuva Green Giants in a row we planted about 5 years ago. They've been growing pretty good, but one of them got covered with bagworms. And through my procastination has some serious damage to the upper 1\3 of tree. I sprayed with Malathion and permethrin and it didn't kill them. I...

    Stihl pole saw

    Think I'm going to invest in one of those stihl super harnesses, anyone use one? I have a good grapple on my tractor so I probably can clean up the fallen limbs before "my limbs" recover from holding the saw..

    Stihl pole saw

    She ended up getting me the HT131, I tried it a little yesterday right before dark. It is an armload, but seems to have a lot of power. My wife told me I needed to get the correct serial number back to the dealer, because they called her and had it wrong. I asked her if they told her about the...

    Stihl pole saw

    A few months ago I mentioned to my wife I would like a new pole saw. The other day, she said she had wanted to surprise me for Christmas but needed to ask me a couple questions. She had done some homework and narrowed it down to Echo and Stihl. She said it was too much money for her to get the...

    The Beg for Manuals Thread

    I could really use a ipl and a service manual for both a 028 av woodboss and an 025. On the 025 I took pictures as I took it apart but it was real dirty and it looks different clean:(. and I thought cleanliness was next to Godliness... Thanks

    028 woodboss

    Didn't mean for them to be so ginormous.... But then everyone did ask for pictures:) The broke off piece is just laying up there and looks larger than life. I ordered the 028 super crankcase from ebay, don't have yet. If I thought it would hold I would JB weld the piece back on.. I think...

    028 woodboss

    I ordered a 028 super crankcase that still has the crankshaft. It was cheap, $23.00 shipped and described as excellent condition. From everything I've read my parts should fit. Should I go ahead and replace the bearings and seals or see if they are still good? Also, do I need a gasket...

    028 woodboss

    This is a 028 av woodboss. I can't get picture until tonight. I thought maybe the crank cases would be the same other than the starter bolts. And if that piece did anything other than hold the spikes on and of course have the serial number on it.. there are a bunch of used crankcases on ebay..

    028 woodboss

    About five years ago my brother in law dropped a tree on his 028. He gave it to me and its been in my storage trailer ever since. I got inspired to work on it last night, it is a 028 av woodboss serial number 212692907. Can anyone tell me the age? It broke the clutch/sprocket cover and cracked...

    55 Rancher carburetor

    My 2002 55 Rancher has a Zama C1Q EL7 carb on it. It needs rebuilt, I thought about just replacing the carb and noticed on ebay that Walbro WT-170 is supposed to fit that saw also and quit a bit cheaper. Will it work?

    smoking chain

    I put the narrow kerf bar and chain on. Cut a bunch of hickory and oak with no problem. I think something is wrong with the original bar, I bought the narrow kerf combo because it was the cheapest way to narrow down the problem I could think of. The original bar lays flat doesn't seem pinched...

    smoking chain

    I think the sprocket is binding. I ordered a narrow kerf bar and chain from baileys that should be here Monday. They have been on back order. I just tried it again the other day, brand new chain, throwing big chips and slicing right through 10" oak log. Started slowing down and smoking. Let...

    Go ahead and flame me - but advice and advise are not the same word

    Aaah you got me.. I am sure it is because I had the "chord" of wood in my head, so I just made the musical association.
