AVB thanks much!!

Hey everyone, Been a while since I've been on. I noticed a spare 3/8 .058 20" Husky bar layin' around; the husky # for it is 608 00 00-47. My question is this; I know Husky does everything by large/small mount for the saws/bars combo. However, the husky website has this serial # matching a...

Not too far away is also umass stockbridge campus which focuses on forestry and arb. 2years as in smiths etc.

I agree, if you would like to be closer to home, Smiths is a great school so I've been told.

LMAO on the checkbook comment. If that was true, I would be truly screwed, as my daughter and son have more cash flow than I do!!:dizzy: I think the trees on the test to answer the other question are from your region. But, I'm not sure. When I take it in 12' if I don't do well, you'll have...

thanks Thanks for the replies. Yeah, I am actually planning on contacting some people today for a regional/area list. I am assuming that it would be a new england / east coast type deal. Most trees I can ID by name i.e. hickory, oak red/white/pin.. or red/white pine etc. But, ashamed to...

Thanks. Will bite the bullet. I believe wesspur has the guide cheaper than the ISA site. Guess I'll order them up.

Hey all, Wanted to do this before, but didn't work enough, now I do. I want to be prof. about things and am looking into the ISA Cert. Arb test, as well as the worker/climber test. The pract. app's won't be a problem, just wondering on the study guides etc. I get nervous on prepping for...

All went well. Signed contract, happy landowner, although he was surprised at how much brush there was.... I taught him about everything I was doing along the way... in the tree and from the ground. Got a few other jobs on the way from it due to decent work apparantly. He actually helped out...

sounds good Thanks Guys, Yup, I always write everything down with mine and customers signature as to what is stipulated for the work. Thanks for the input on business is business. I just wanted to know what some thoughts were. I plan on a write up Sat. If he agrees and understands prices...

Ok, Here it is. A friend of mine wants me do do a BUNCH of cutting, clearing etc. I think he already had an estimate or two and didn't like the prices.... He is a friend, so yes, there is a break in whatever price I will give him... but........ He says he just wants everything down, not to...

Hello, There has already been much said, but I felt like chiming in anyway. Safety apparral. I am a husky guy, but I have a little MS170 for my wifes first saw, and that is what I started my daughter with at 11. My son is still a little young yet. Obviously, I was right there in both cases...

check your idle Hello, A friend of mine actually has a 394xp in an alaskan mill. Before you go to rebuild the carb, check your idle speed. Sometimes it is just that simple of a fix. Maybe not here but look into it. If you don't have one, get a tach, or borrow one. If your idle speed is...

Thank you Terry syd, Thanks. I must have looked right over the limiter deal... Didn't even see it while reading, I was just looking at the same places I used to. I will most likely set the screw for about 12000-12500. Thanks Ken, I am up in the NE. Warren county n/nw of Lake George...

Hey Ken, Thanks for a response. So, do you have your 445 saw at the 9000rpm the book shows? Or are you around 12-12500? I started looking again through my shop manuals and such, I guess I could have been a little confusing earlier. They show 9600 rpm and max engine speed of 13500 for the...

Hey all, Question.. I was just given a brandy new husqvarna 445 by a friend of the family who due to illness can't cut anymore. I have my 372 and 365 and 55 all tuned up through a tach to about 700 below max over rev. I.e the husky book used to say 9600 max hp rev / 13500 max over rev for...

oh yeah, If you don't have one.... get a tach... it helps A LOT

55 Not to beat a dead horse even more dead..... But, the 55 was my first saw ever. At the time, I knew NOTHING about anything.... Not meaning to, I beat that saw to hell and back and the thing although rarely run now, still works like a top. I think as stated before, most first timers buy...

Hey all, While not a pro, I do a little bit of climbing and cutting up here in the dacks.... Wanting prayers for my little bro's friend/family. He is a fireman down in North Carolina (raleigh area). I guess he just found out that his co worker, on his part time tree job (which he's been...

Thanks guys. Appreciate the help!:cheers:
