I guess I should have done a little research on user names. I guess it's no surprise there's no reply and or that there will be some strong hyjinx with what follows. -scott

Well let's see the pics of those garage welds. -scott

This is my guess as I was splitting with a couple guys that cut crooked rounds and it was all pretty twisted white oak and almost stalled a handful of times. Regardless, it's back and better than ever. -scott

Well I have been splitting on this guy for a bit now, working all the bugs out. Got some hose routing and leaking problems figured and sorted out. Took it out a couple weeks ago (has not left my house since built) to help a buddy who is dangerously low on wood. Ran flawlessly all day (besides...

Here's mine. Just got the new splitter built and my son (4yo) has been asking to split wood every day. So every day we've been going up and he runs the lever while I load the wood. Working on 19-20-21 wood. -scott

The work table was there all along. Just kinda hard to see in some of the pics. It was one of the first parts of my plan knowing how much it sucks split a round in half and have to drop half on the ground and then pick it back up once the first half is split up. I've got a couple hours splitting...

The work table is 28" tall set up from the foot about 2-3" so it goes past the wedge fully retracted about 3-5". I've been warned about the motor both on forums and by my boss but I've got a few hours on it and not even come close. If I do end up needing it I know a guy lol. Thanks for the...

I've got right at $750 in it. I got the cylinder 2nd hand from my dad (turns out after running it over the weekend that it needs seals) and I have awesome employers that allowed me to use any material that had been paid for as part of normal projects so I had pretty much zero material cost. I am...

Just finished it up at work yesterday and towed it home last night. Got about 15-20 minutes run time on it in the dark under headlights of the truck with my 4yo son. Specs are: W8x24 wide flange beam, set up to do vertical and horizontal work with a work table for horizontal. 1.25" plate...

I acquired a 5200i that got run over by a pickup. the wrap handle and rear handle/tank got broken along with chain brake handle and I may need a top cover. let me know what you have. thank you in advance. -scott

I've got 3 files, one for each size of chain 3/8lp, .325, and 3/8 that came in a package with my husky roller guides. they are all over 2 yrs old and they all still cut great (I usually touch up at least every other tank of fuel if not every tank and once when I put the saws away). the file gets...

that bar makes your saw's ass look big. -scott

I run a 20" bar with 3/8 chisel on my 562. it's been muffler modded and I've never had a hot start problem. it eats fresh oak like my lesser saws have eaten pine! you will enjoy that saw! -scott

450 rancher and 562xp. -scott

here's my reed 3 1/2 inch machinists vice I did a semi rebuild restore on last year. had to build a pivot bolt/lock and cap. took it apart cleaned and greased it and put some paint on it. it's very solid and has zero play in the screw/guide/jaws. has smooth tool steel jaws. I love this little guy!

I know that there are plenty of welders here that know more than I do, yet none of them are chiming in telling me I'm wrong. as for specifying a weld process/machine I'd be happy to if I were given some parameters other than $$. what will you be welding(material? application?) were will you be...

if I showed you a picture of a saw muffler and carried on about how I was going to port my carb would you correct me or let me go on and on about my carb (muffler) project? I bet I'd get straightened out by all the saw guys wouldn't I? I tried to tell the guy it's two different things and...

flux core mig...no such thing. it's either Flux core (fcaw) or mig. -scott

no they are not very similar. they are very different. one uses gas as the sheild the other uses flux like a smaw electrode. the are also vastly different in their transfer method and the technique used to weld with them. someone who is very well versed in mig welding only will struggle greatly...
