    Rope it off and have someone slightly pull from other side.

    Circular saw beam cutter

    When I said rough, I meant its doable (way better than me on the chainsaw). I didnt sand any of the big ends. Picture for reference is a 8x12x22 Hemlock.

    first wood stove for garage

    Same situation as far as garage space. NC-30 will heat it to 95 no problem. Can be had for under $400 used. Will keep fires for up to 8 hours.

    Circular saw beam cutter

    I bought one a few weeks ago to cut some larger 8x12x22s for a post and beam porch I am doing. Pretty much what you are saying. Just squaring the ends and doing some 45s here and there. I have a mid grade Skil saw and its working fine so far, just that it ends up a rough cut even going super...

    Weeping willow blew over (slipped trunk?)

    I had a 3-4 year old weeping willow tree blow over in a violent storm. It was "laid" over top touching the ground for a few hours before I could get home and tie it up. My father said that they are common for the trunk to "slip" and that I should just cut it down and let regrow below the...

    shop stove

    Had 275 gal wood stove in garage. Almost exactly the same, had a Vogelzang door. No pipes through it. Homemade blower on the back/bottom shroud. 6" pipe worked fine.

    026 Cuts out/Dies on "Run", runs on other settings.

    Was just the impulse line being disconnected. Ran a tank through it cutting up around the walking trail this afternoon. Thanks guys for bouncing ideas at me!

    026 Cuts out/Dies on "Run", runs on other settings.

    I didnt pull that hard at all; no harder than ever before ;) This is why I figured it to be messed up linkage of sorts. I ended up using a wedge to get it free. Still didnt fire it up, family came over before kids woke. Stay tuned tomorrow haha.

    026 Cuts out/Dies on "Run", runs on other settings.

    Yea I had a slight pinch. I turned off (Full Choked out) the saw. Got it unstuck, moved some wood around and then wouldnt run right again. It is not grounded in run position. Wiring and such seems fine. I didnt notice any play in the coil in relation to the flywheel but will double check for...

    026 Cuts out/Dies on "Run", runs on other settings.

    So I pretended I was taking care of stuff in the garage, so I took apart saw a little and am getting continuity between the YELLOW wire and block. So I took wire off and did what my picture is showing and still getting continuity. So does that mean that the coil is bad? Its grounded itself out...

    026 Cuts out/Dies on "Run", runs on other settings.

    Yes when I killed with with Full Choke I did WOT and then pushed latch down. I thought also that control latch broke or skipped, but after checking it out everything looks fine. Ill get to this later today. When I had the air filter off checking to make sure nothing "slipped" on the position...

    026 Cuts out/Dies on "Run", runs on other settings.

    I was cutting up a large cherry tree, 1 and half tanks of gas through the saw doing so; i went to shut off the saw to reposition some wood and the kill switch would not do it. So, I used the full choke setting to bog it down. Went to restart and would not stay running in the "Run" setting...

    Ms362 oil behind clutch where from?

    I'm going to chalk it up to overfilling a few times and using it soon after. I'll keep an eye on it thanks.

    Ms362 oil behind clutch where from?

    That's what I did. And only a drop from the red circle area after a day.

    Ms362 oil behind clutch where from?

    Saw was begging in the cut. Figured was some oil/debris on clutch and drum since I haven't cleaned it in awhile. Cleaned it all out, was more than expected. Where is all the oil coming from? I suspected the oil pump leaking when sitting but have let it sit a few days and there is only a trace...

    What do I have here? Alpina Chainsaw looks to be a Pro45

    Got rid of it awhile ago.

    026 Air Filter Penetration??

    Decided to put it back together with some grease between the halves. I'll run another 5 tanks through and see if it helped any or not. I'm thinking of making a small gasket between filter and carb and permanently sealing filter together might end up being the best option here.
