    The verdict is in concerning my powwermatch bar!

    The issue started here in this thread... http://www.arboristsite.com/community/threads/what-is-up-with-oregon.313488/#post-6357830 ...and now Oregon has responded.

    Beware junk bar/chain combos cause damage!

    Bought a "Powercare" bar/chain combo in a pinch. Not sure who makes them, but probably the same as something like "Countyline" or something. Installed it on an old Craftsman/Poulan 2.3 Powersharp saw. The oil hole was off a tid bit, but a few licks from a file fixed that. Now lets adjust the...

    Another chainsaw poll? Yup!

    This is to be a little different however. Rather than ranting and arguing about the best possible chainsaw out there, we're gonna try to find the worse piece of junk out there. I was gonna just do a thread and let people post whatever, but I decided on a poll, cause I figure it would be one of...
