    If you could only grow three vegetables what would they be

    It’s all good. Downsized this year. Sold the tractor that I used for gardening, and we are only growing a few tomatoes, squash, and eggplants.

    Ebay Parts from “California“

    I never liked dealing with California ebayers, regardless of their genetics. They mostly seem to want something for nothing. Not all of them are like that, though.

    Stinky oil?

    Well darn! Even Stihl oil stinks!

    Storing saws.

    Factory premix for the inside of the saws. I also run dehumidifiers in the shop for the exterior of the saws. That helps prevent muffler rust and keeps electrical components dry.

    has corona go you shutdown or off work

    My health has pretty much shut me down, but I still enjoy tinkering with stuff, and cutting grass. Could go down to the pond and fish, but can’t get interested in that.

    Redmax chainsaws

    They are almost the same as Huskys. Red Maxes have riding mowers, too. A friend of mine is a dealer, and he was a Husqvarna tech for 19 years. He tells me that Reds and Huskys are pretty much the same. My question would be why they even make them?

    Sleezebay bay sellers

    I do know that shipping services have gotten outrageous, regardless of the service used. If a package is large, and it has to go very far, it makes the sale too expensive overall. Some sellers add extra, and feebay gets a small percent of the shipping cost, also. I do not miss being a feebay...

    Ms 251 vs ms261

    Sounds like the guy is looking for an excuse to buy another saw. We all know how that goes. Been there many times. Go get one! :)

    Ebay Sellers - Ever Beat False Defective Item Claim?

    I’d much rather sell another way, and just make a little money than get screwed out of a lot by feebay.

    Ebay Sellers - Ever Beat False Defective Item Claim?

    The last item I sold on feebay was an original 1900 antique steam engine, that powered a steam automobile. It wasn’t locked- up, and you could turn the engine freely. I sold it “as-is” and described it the best I could. Some crook in Baltimore, MD bought it. He had numerous complaints and had...

    How costly is one of those?

    How many saws in a class?

    I am down to 4 runners now, but that could change at any moment. Numbers tend to go up, even when you think they should go down.:)

    eBay sucks worse for the seller. Buyers should be safe.

    Stihl Model Badges

    In the last several years, I have seen many Stihl saws that look great, but the round badges in the center of the recoil cover are missing. I have wondered why Stihl makes them so “cheaply”. You would think Stihl would want these badges to stay in place. In a pawn shop the other day, there were...

    Mine did smoke a lot when I cranked it, but it was out of fuel, and I put 50:1 premix in it to clean it out. I will probably run 40:1 when using it.

    Am I dumb or no? (Broken saw)

    A little “Afro-engineering” and you will probably have a good saw!

    Mac PM 605

    This one runs good, too. They are, in my opinion, the last “good” saws made by Mac. I love the sound of them.

    I got this at a pawn shop today for 100.00. The condition sold me on it. I had one like it once, and it was a good saw!
