    Shindaiwa warranty fantastico!

    So I am at the dealer over lunch to get my little Honda water pump tuned up and can't help but look at the saws the guy carries.

    How do I become a chainsaw mechanic

    Thanks for the advice guys. So it looks like I will own 4 saws soon. Guy near me wants 75 for a homelite and mcolluck. Will offer him 15 each, pretty sure he just wants to get rid of them. Wait now, maybe I should just wait for the Dolmar 115 auction to end for which I am the high bidder...

    help needed, saw leaks gas

    Bought my first saw home and having trouble getting her to idle...dies when I pull on the trigger.
