What saws will Santa bring your wives and girlfriends for Christmas???

[bookerdog]

I asked the GF to get me a Husky, she laughed.

Thats because she slap you down and said she wears the pants and she's the only one that can handle the husky lineup

 

[windthrown]

BTW what the heck is a BUZZ saw?

Buzz saw is a PNW term (at least when I was in diapers anyway) for chainsaw.

As for the rest, maybe I will have to add you to my ignore list as well...

*sigh*

Andy,
What you use the thodolite for? you an amateur surveyor or like to know how high trees are by using trigonometry formulas? I have turned a few angles with one of those.

Got the wife a 260 pro. I thinkits her most prized possesion. I have ran it twice I like it. I thought about finding her an 076 for this christmas free operator included.

You got it all wrong Sweetie, you are my most prized possession!:hmm3grin2orange:

Hmmm,

In the past month, Karen hasn't found opportunity to run her birthday saw (a Dolmar 401) so I dunno if she'd be happy with yet another one. IF I did get her a backup saw for it, it's to be a MS192 rear-handle.

I think that Grandbaby Emily has a real good chance of getting a MS260 Pro for her first christmas/birthday. She'll love it I'm sure, once she gets used to the vibes and the air filtration <insert rollingeyes smiley>

Naw, she may like that high rpm powerband though. Maybe that is why women run them, they use a great amount of finesse, otherwise the chain would stop.

She will take the Stihl, thank ya, thank ya very much.

I was told yesterday "No saws are coming into this house at Christmas":jawdrop:

Hi,

my little lady is better than me in firering the stove; if she`ll get a chainsaw, I think I`ll lose that "race" too.

Andy,

This one is a transit. They are getting cheap (used) now - without full ground station capabilites and lazer range finding, yesterday's gold is today's brass.. I paid $200, and $25 for the stand... Amazing optics. Heck you can barely buy a decent set of levels for that price.

I use it for general construction, finding the propery lines, ploting exact positions of trees, buildings etc, and and now for measuring the height of trees. No more guessing in marginal situlations! Just need to dust off my scientific calc and math skills.


I would like to find one (cheap) with lazer range finding though...

Diapers - 2 years ago? you must have been hanging with the Home Depot saw crowd... :greenchainsaw:

Andy,
That is a really good deal on a topcon transit, those are good instruments. A replacement lens for my Zeiss NI2 level is more than that. Have fun with it.

 

[slowp]

My point of view

I wuv my 440. And, if a certain person were to be so rude as to get me a saw for Christmas, well that is the model size it better be! I'd rather get a fiberglass or really fast plastic 16 foot or longer kayak for Christmas. And maybe some racks to haul it on my pickup.

Something that is really dangerous, and makes a real nasty sound when cutting wood - I hate them with a passion!!!!:angry2: :angry2:

Do they use tractor pto driven buzz saws in Norway? Some people like them for small wood. They sure do make a nice zinging sound when cutting.

Yah, I'm 50, WAS BORN IN THE PNW (unike some fools here), and I was in diapers 'til I was 48.

But WTF... Congrats Lake, you are now on my ignore list.

good.. now you won't see me say this ..." ":greenchainsaw:

 

[2000ssm6]

What????

Lake, on a ignore list, that has gotta be a first.

I think Andy is a great guy and likes saws like most of us here. Thanks for all your help Lake!!! I'm sure I will have more questions in the future.

 

[Lakeside53]

Sorry, can't answer, I'm being ignored by a young 50 year old in diapers :greenchainsaw:
