    dolmar rebuild? help

    seems for the displacement of the saw, she seems as if it is cranking over easier, like it doesnt have the compression it should, after sitting for a few weeks it fires on the 5-6 pull though. just seems to pull over to easy and does seem to bog down easier than it should. still cuts three times...

    The mingo firewood marker

    i to have seen it advertised but i just thought it was something for the noobie homeowner, i didnt think that many actual woodsmen used it. i mean it is a great idea, personally i have always eyeballed the wood, an old friend used a crayon and tape, he put tape on end of log and as he measured...

    New splitter - American CLS

    sweet looking splitter you got there, just wish i could dump that kinda cash on a splitter. looks as if it did have the operator in mind, lift is handy, only thing better would be someone else doing the work.
