Stubborn chainsaw users....

[Icedogs28]

So... A new neighbor moved in last week. His yard has a nice tree that shades my patio. Last weekend he informed me that he wanted to trim the tree. I offered to help. He said "no, I got it, I have a chainsaw" . A few hours later I hear an electronic chainsaw stuggling ! I look over the fence to see him leaning on the poor dull home Depot saw. So dull it's hopping and skipping all over the tree. I offer to help again, he declines the offer. Long story short... This is now the view from my back yard...

That's really beautiful. You should thank him.

I had a coworker who knew I was into chainsaws ... So he related to me that he had a chainsaw... electric....cuts really well but leaks oil so badly you had to add some almost every time you use it. He doesn't work with me anymore ... I wonder if he moved. . .

Isn’t that special! I think every neighborhood has one of those people.

I thought you all needed a permit and such to cut a tree down out there.

Or a Dispensation from Al Gore.......

You would think do being CA... Bit I'm in the central valley. We don't have all the BS taxes and regulations that the coast does.

I'm normally a man who advocates small government or no government but i'd be strongly in favour of legislation banning assholes like that owning saws.

Tell him you're thinking about painting your fence, ask him pink fuchsia or lime green.

That's a freaking hack job, you sure he had a chainsaw and not a sawsall.

Don't they also need like a 15-person HAZMAT team, y'know, for all the toxins and stuff in the wood chips?

Yeah, there should be laws about morons having children. But hey, we all relish freedom.

It's like a bad haircut, a few months & it'll bush up & you'll hardly notice it anymore

A sawsall would have done better.

Depends on the operator.

If that guys the operator the sawsall would do a better job on its own.
