    Stihl MS441 used value?

    Condition is very good. Very low hours. M-tronic. Run awesome. Here are a few pics. I have a 28 inch bar and a 20 inch bar. New chains for both.

    Stihl MS441 used value?

    I have a MS441CM with the full wrap handle that I would like to sell, but I don't know how much to ask. I have a 20 inch bar and also the Stihl 28 inch light with a few new chains etc. A friend is interested in buying it, but how do i go about getting a fair price? It has only been used by me...

    Black Walnuts struggling

    Thanks for that info. I'll keep an eye on it, and try to treat it moderately for the ants.

    Black Walnuts struggling

    Hello all. We live in North east PA and over the last few years I've noticed 2 of our very old walnut trees seem to be having trouble. The canopy comes out much later than the surrounding maples etc, and it it is a sparce canopy as well. They look a bit like when an ash tree is dying due to the...

    Dirty hand tools leaky seal on cylinder

    Old thread I know but I thought I would chime in. DHT does have very good customer service. They stood behind my 27 ton even after it was out of warranty. That said, my splitter lost the pump around 27 hours, which they replaced, and then lost the cylinder some time after that. DHT made good...

    Dirty Hand Tools 30-Ton Log Splitter

    I have the 27 ton. Are you sure you don't have the 9 hp motor. Going from memory but I think the larger splitters have a bigger engine.

    How much does that Log Weigh?

    Thanks. That is perfect. George

    How much does that Log Weigh?

    Is there a way to approximate the weight of any given log in length? Obviously some wood is heavier than others, but in general, if my loader lifts say a 1000lbs, how long of a log can I attempt to lift? Just looking for general guidelines. Thanks, George

    What's the best stihl fire wood saw for the money

    Can't believe you all ran with this one. While we're on the subject. What the best motor oil to run in my truck? Conventional or synthetic? Just kidding.

    Anyone ever buy or use a LogOx multi tool

    Hello all. Just saw this on Baily's Online. Never heard of a LogOx. Has anyone ever tried one? I blew my back out 3 weeks ago tryng to lift a round outside of my age bracket. This looks attractive. Check it out. https://www.thelogox.com/pages/about-us Thanks. G

    Stihl 441 Stingy Oiler?

    I've cleaned the hole in the bar. Is it ok to make it a bit larger? Don't want to ruin the bar.

    Stihl 441 Stingy Oiler?

    It happened cutting a big old maple. Like Stevesr says if i repeatedly blip the throttle before and after the cut it is fine. Doesn't happen every time. Usually everything is fine.

    Stihl 441 Stingy Oiler?

    So. Yes the oiler is turned up to the max. I think the R model comes with the larger oiler. It's happened twice that the chain will sieze on the bar because it was so dry. If I blip the throttle repeated before a long cut, you can see the oil sling, and all is well. Maybe I will try different...

    Stihl 441 Stingy Oiler?

    Hello all. I have a 441 CM M-tronic with the wrap handle. I'm running a 28 inch light bar. It really seems to have issues getting enough oil out to the end of the bar. I've been running the stihl ultra bar oil. It's like I have to blip the throttle repeatedly before a long cut or the chain gets...

    Stihl M Tronic issues across the board?

    I have two M-tronic saws. A 441cm and a 261. No issues what so ever. Love them both.

    Shower Doors Bracket and Roller(s)

    i think in a case like this you should really explain to your spouse that a new chain saw would help in the repair of the shower doors. No. Seriously. I think you can buy the rollers from Lowes or HD, but the original ones are probably riveted on and you'll need to drill them out and use a small...
