I knew exactly which saw I wanted and went in and told them. This was the only one left and it was a floor model. We grabbed it off of the shelf and the guy even gased it up and filled the oil reservoir and didn't notice it (or ignored it). When I thought about that, my thought was maybe it...

Oops, yeah, oil cap is what I meant :)

Yep, definitely left the store like that. I noticed it as I was carrying it in from my car. Even double checked in my car to make sure nothing banged into it and the piece wasn’t laying somewhere. This thing is definitely lighter. Must better than my ms290 I’ve used for 10 years.

just brought my new ms261 home from the dealer today. Upon inspection I noticed the metal that sticks out beside the gas cap is busted off. Has anyone had this problem? It isn’t a big deal but I hate to pay that much money for something that isn’t perfect.

I didnt know that about the root ball. I have 2 or 3 blow downs from Sandy I might try this with. There are also a dozen or so we drug into the woods several years ago from when I built my house. May have to go take a looks to see how well they cleaned off.

I have, without a doubt, seen termites in wood that i have split. Typically in moist dead wood. I usually make a pile of ant and termite infested wood and bring it directly to my stove. I used to bring about a cord of wood in at a time. That was until I began having an ant problem and some...

I am looking to buy a new stove and the NC30 is at the top of my list. Last year they were reduced greatly at Home Depot mid-late winter and I was considering waiting until then to purchase this year in hopes they did the same. However, Ive been given a reason to speed up my search. My...

That may be part of my problem then. They never run out at the same time. Id guess probably a 2:1 ratio of gas:oil. thanks for the help!

I had a nearly new stihl bar lock up on me recently and it got me to wondering. I have never adjusted the oiler on my MS290. How much oil should I be going through in a tank of gas? Im wondering if Im not feeding the chain/bar enough oil?

I wear these http://www.fortressproducts.com/ProductDetail.asp?BrandID=2&CategoryID=1&ProductID=74 Perfect gloves; durable and not bulky making it easy to handle woods, tools, and start the saw.

howellhandmade, that's what Im thinking of! Thanks for posting it. If I can build that a little smaller it would be perfect!

LOL, I have something in my head but I dont know how feasible it is. Maybe a tarp is the best idea :) After thinking about it, the size Im thinking of probably would only hold a half cord. I have a small area at my back door that I would like to stack a couple weeks worth of wood and would...

I have a small area I was considering building a small wood shelter for. Something that would hold a cord or so and could be moved at the end of winter. Anyone seen such a thing or have one? Pics or plans?

Anyone know anything about this stove? I have an insert on blocks that I am using in my basement. Any information on BTU's and year?

Fantastic, way to go! There is nothing like sharing the pleasures of life with little ones. I did the same thing last night with my 2 year old girl. She kept wanting me to turn lights off so she could see the fire glowing. Enjoy them and love them with all youve got!

Here's my delima...which Ive posted other places as well. Still not sure what direction to go in. I am in the process of re-evaluating my heating method. I am in a 1500 sq. ft ranch home with an unfinished basement. I currently have an Alaska Kodiak wood stove insert propped up on blocks...

Cub Cadet blower here. It has removed about 90" thus far this year.

Anyone using a stove in their finished basement to heat the entire house? Just wondering how this would work...does the heat find its way upstairs. I have mine in an unfinished basement with no ceiling so Im wondering how one in a finished basement with a ceiling would do.

I have an old Alaska Kodiak wood stove. My house is a 1500 sq ft ranch and the stove is in the basement. Would I benefit from purchasing a new wood stove? Are they significantly better?

So if you are recieving a refund, they add the amount to the refund?
