Matt is on to it! Not only did the yogi overlook the chimbley, he also forgot that we are in a chainsawing forum that most use for firewood!!!

Rick sort of comes across as smart, then he disgraces us all with stupidity like overlooking a simple damn chimney. Last time I checked chimneys weren't used for cooling...

While you guys are discussing garbage bin storage areas and ac units, I started thinking on yesterday and the little saw Matt sold me, yep still going and still making the score sheet tick over with another 1 on the list. Still cutting the mustard Matt, its not a lemon that one

Heh heh. Sniff...
It makes me all emotional that little saw. How did you go yesterday mate?

yea it was a simple day, we did a intro demo for next year, raced on the tar in an intersection, hot saws in amongst the shops, can't beat that. Dean on the microphone talking like a politician, all was good, terrific prizes for a demo.
I managed a 20 litre of quality synthetic 2 stroke oil (I intend to divide the drum up amongst the 6 of us who were invited) A new Husqvarna whipper snipper and some folding stuff.

The little saw. From memory it just had a muffler mod and bored out larger carby - no porting.

did it well let me tell you I have lifted its game profusely,, I cannot say here as there is too many prying eyes and secret squirrels ect ect so just trust me on this....

na, i still have only done little things as i have told you about, i havn't even started on it properly, when i get set up in my mew work area i will do something with it.

Its not up to national standard yet, but that doesn,t mean it can't get there.

Do you fellas realise how many a/c systems I install in houses that already have fireplaces and combustion heaters but people want the a/c for heating as either a) they want instant heat, or b) find wood prices over the top these days :p

It's a widdle bit cold where I live :)

who can tell me more about fire places that were designed for coal. When I lived in Adelaide, the terrace house was approx 120 years old. VERY thick stone walls and we were in the middle of the 4. The fire places were ornate and I was told more designed for coal than wood? If so would they have been the original units from the 1870/80s?? or was there a point that coal became fashionable?

Called a 'cosy', we had one as a kid too and our house would've been 100 years old.
I'll ask mum about it.
