and unemployment in maine is bare minimum, my father a commercial electrician with almost a years worth of unemployment because of no union work is barely scraping by. So before too many people go on ranting about how people on unemployment are selfish and this and that you should see just how...

right now im working for a guy up here in maine that hauls some wood with draft horses. iF the weather gets better any time soon and i ever make it back to the woods ill see if i can get a few pics of the horses in action. They are kinda limited this time of year as to where they can go because...

a friend of mine from waterford me has a little JD 440 that has a backhoe attached on the back. It has quick connect hydraulic lines and mounts by the way of a few drop in pins, it only takes a few moments to put on and take off. Its pretty handy.

HUH? 2 years to season oak? Most of the oak i burn sets out for 7-8 months and is ready to go.

Not a single one of my saws are modded, all stock.

Recently my department purchased 2 new saws. We purchased a 460 rescue saw (a sheer beauty!) and a smaller MS390 for cutting trees/ice/ and other stuff we might run into (thats wood). We had a late last year where our saws were on our engine, but the tanker was running water supply miles away...

Mines got a black cover on top. I got mine for a ms290 and $50. Best trade ive ever made, saw runs like a champ and will cut anything.

I beat ya both, got mine for free...and running. Went to see a guy about a P/C for a husky 55, Said he didnt have what i wanted but could take the 357 if i wanted, said it was junk. Took it home gassed it up, 3 pulls and she came to. Been running pretty good for a junk saw, just gets really hot...

I do have a pair similar (husky) in the actual glove form and although they do have kevlar in them i doubt it would save your hand. There is very little actual protective material in them, if a saw will cut through six layers of chaps i doubt that the two or three layers in the gloves would do...

Feller buncher: usually has a large circular saw around here (Maine) or a hydraulic shear and cuts trees off and lays them down tree length in bunches to be picked up behind a grapple skidder. Harvester: has a head that grabs onto the tree has a hydraulic chainsaw that swings out cuts the tree...

Those auto decomp systems are neat, untill they stop working. I had one on my older 357, but the thing wouldent close. So my dealer plugged it up and its never bothered. The 357 is small enough not to even need one anyways. But i am sure glad that my ms460 has one, it makes starting that much...

my saws get gunked up too after a few minutes of cutting. The saw chips arent really dry either, they are covered in pitch and water. Plus you have alot of bar oil thats on them from the bar. Its pretty normal to have this area get very gunked up very quickly because thats the area thats coming...

Man im glad I live in Maine!

ill keep pronouncing it that way until it starts pumping out alcohol! :greenchainsaw:

I wanted to go to that show so badly. I just had no way to get there. Maybe next year ill hit it.

Im 17 own 5 saws, and cut all my familys firewood each year. I do saw work for some of the teachers at my school to make a few extra bucks here and there. I also have a whole class at my tech school that does the exact same thing....your not the only one out there.

i bought a pack of files the other day for 10 bucks, but i got 15 of them.....the files cut pretty good too, and they have lasted longer than the stihl file that came with the kit. I wont go around saying they are better but for what i paid its well worth it. plus im going to have that box...

that one made me laugh pretty hard. Along with #12. That one was pretty good. I think i would die laughing if someone seriously handed me a paper with these on it.

Some of those were completely hilarious. Especially numbers 2-3.

around here atleast for the moment the fire danger is extremely high. Just the other day someone was burning brush caught the woods on fire and destroyed two nice campers.
