OK, so I have a relatively new Husky 445 that I have installed a 12" carving bar on. With the shorter bar it is just spewing bar oil all over the place. To my knowledge there is no adjustment screw on this saw to tone it down a bit. Since my dilemna is usually just the opposite of this I'm...

My wife & I visited the Sonoma wine country over the weekend brought home a couple of nice vintages: 1-50 1-43 Both are runners but need some work and a couple of parts. $60 for the pair. The way the owner jumped at my offer I probably could've bought them for less but...

I am rebuilding the oil pump on my "new" Home Depot Makita. I just received the oil pump rebuild kit from Edge & Engine (Great Service!) and it included two adjusters - one black and one white. Is there a difference? I could not really see any difference but I have not "Miked" them out...

As I'm pulling away from home this morning on my way to work I noticed a piece of my oak out by the street. H-m-m-m. I stop, back up and see that someone has apparently decided my woodpile is there for their own benefit! They probably got a full pick-up load. We moved the pile when I got...

Ancient Valley Oak. Apparently no maintenance on it for at least 10 years, probably more. Most lower branches have grown out and are resting on the ground for support. A couple months ago, this one branch that the tree had held above ground cracked and the far end is now down. I have been...

After reading many posts on AS I am considering the Huskee/Speeco 22T (on sale now at TS) and have a couple of questions: Can a vertical shaft powered log splitter like this one be easily converted to a horizontal shaft engine if the engine ever needs replacing? I'm just thinking in the long...

We had the opportunity to watch a "professional" arborist drop a couple of dead fir trees. This guy has years of experience. . . I missed the first drop, which was a small twig and came down no problem. The second was a more robust tree with a bit of a jog in the trunk. He cut his wedge then...

OK, first post here for me, but have been lurking for a bit and reading a bunch, and want to thank you all for sharing your wealth of knowledge! I believe I am in the early stages of CAD and find myself in the market for a BIGGER saw!:) I currently have a 35cc MacCat/18" that was recently...
