I could get one too. My wife had both hips replaced. One in 86 one in 87. Then she had revisions on both in 2006 and 2007, then a total replacement in 2013 of the left side, the rod in her femer came loose. She has a handicap tag. I can get one with my knee replacement, but I park at the far end of the lot anyway.I sure wish diuretics would work for swelling lol , the good ankle (right side) has a circumference of 9 1/2" , the left is usually at 11 1/2" circumference at the same spot by the end of the day .
Pain and meds are just a daily part of life , it lets me know I'm alive every day Lol .
A lot of people that know me (and I know lots of people) don't even know about my struggles .
I legitimately can qualify for a handicap tag if I want but my struggles aren't that bad so I don't need it now , maybe someday down the road maybe ...
The reason I brought up the handicap parking thing is that some people get irate when they see a normal looking person get out of a car that has a handicap tag and walk into a store with all the appearance of being normal , a Doc has to sign off on that tag up here , plenty of paperwork involved so it's not just a scam to get a better parking spot .
But yes , there's polly plenty of scammers out there that have and will abuse the system .
Enough of that derail lol
On a scrounging note ...

Keep looking at that transfer port and it will get the best of you and the dremel will come out. Iv looked at the removable covers on the 490 a few times but iv been able to stop my self from pulling them to have a look.woop woop!
Looks like I've bought a stunningly clean 2015 365, light firewood use by an old guy that found it too heavy, and saved myself a couple of hundred over the new price. seen photos and its stunningly clean, and I get a good gut feel from the seller so fingers crossed. Seller hasn't been pushy, sent good photos, sent me loads more photos after I noticed a difference to the cylinder externals compared to a mates....all good. Price agreed, money to be exchanged in 10 days as seller went on on holiday this morning

So....that's one of the 2 transfer caps...hmm. when people say 'grind' the baffle, they mean 'dremmel' aka 'poor man's die grinder' the baffle.
Nah, TBH, I won't touch it, no point for me.

I am looking to getting my next saw. husqvarna 562 xp is up there on the list. But here is the hard part. I have a 1976 Chevy pick up I have had for years. It is a 4wd 4 speed that I put a built 454 into it. I plowed the drve with it for years. The 454 sure had lots of pull and made it fun. Rust in the cab is bad, couldn't get a sticker for it. It has been a lawn ornament for 10 years, not started up. I want to sell it to get a new saw. It has replacement fenders and hood that are not rusted and replacement doors in good condition. How do I know what to sell it for? How bad is a motor sitting for 10 years? Do I need to pull plugs and put PB Blast in it to spin it over? Or am I better leaving it alone and selling it as is?
Not sure how many pallets to a cord, but I can say that is one tight cord. No air space to account for.I sure wish diuretics would work for swelling lol , the good ankle (right side) has a circumference of 9 1/2" , the left is usually at 11 1/2" circumference at the same spot by the end of the day .

Very sorry to hear that.
Do you have time to play around with it a bit? A running vehicle is always worth more. See if you can get it running. Your drivetrain alone should be worth several hundred to a thousand bucks and a running 454 is definitely worth at least a few hundred.

The little 310 showed up again this morning. He says won't cut I look the chains trashed. Cleaned it up good and put the bar from the 355t on. Going to pick up a new chain for him later. For now I'm going to go clean up some more oak with it. Amazed this saw has survived the 10 years of abuse it's been through.
Sorry for your loss.
Still looks great especially with that new bar and chain
Jesus, please be with my friend reading this prayer. You know every wound, every joy, every fear, every dream. Heal old wounds. Heal new wounds. Rejoice alongside. Alleviate every haunting fear. Fulfill God-sized dreams in Your timing (and help us be patient in the waiting). Help us all to see the power of Your resurrection. Give us eyes to see where new life springs in our hearts. Rejuvenate when we’re weak. We need You Jesus. Amen.

Never tried the 310. Those saws sure wake up once the cat is gone though!
