    How to pick up timber

    I'm in central va also. Its very hard to compete with the feller buncher crews. I am small time as well and most of my work comes word of mouth and from doing a good job like northman said. I also stop and talk to the feller buncher guys and have gotten contracted on for a few very specific...

    Looking for Cedar or Black locust logs in Virginia or Maryland

    What is the minimum diameter small side? I just walked a small cc and there are few decent cedar trees. How many are looking for? Can't promise anything but happy to help if I can. I'm down in spotsy but lived in Lorton for 30 years. So depending on what you're requirements are and whether I...

    JawSaw

    2 things come to mind whenever I see that thing... 1) How great of a mob tool it would be. "Hey Johnny! Look how I can safely detach this guys arm without worrying about the chain hitting the bath tub." 2) When somebody is going to slap some sexy race but square chisel on there and start...

    chain prices

    I try to give them as much of my business as possible. The saved a roll of Oregon CJX (last one they had) for me until payday and then spun me 6 loops no charge. Almost every time I order I get a hat or gloves or something fun to show appreciation. I wish I could go there one day in person. They...

    chain prices

    My dealer (read stealer) tried to charge me $.60 a link for a 92 drive link chain of Oregon lgx plus a $5 loop fee. If I want 93 dl premade Stihl is like $54. Talk about rip offs. I order 2 for the price of one from one of my favorite places on the west coast for like $.20 a dl. Just hate waiting:(

    Anyone try this "Junon" carb for MS170/180 etc?

    Its $25 which includes shipping! AND you can return it if it doesn't fit. Buy it and try it! Absolute worse case scenario, you have a cheap carb to take apart and play with.

    Stihl FG2 Bench Mount Filing Guide

    I was planning on buying that exact file guide as it says it holds flat files also. I'm skeptical but am willing to give it a shot before I break down and buy an ATOP file guide for square filing. Unless somebody wants to sell a used ATOP I would gladly entertain that Jesse

    Who here buys new saws on a layaway plan?

    Or worse yet you get high buyers remorse. The "oh man do I really need this?" "I should have bought this or 10 of those instead" "When the warden finds out, I'm on solitary confinement!" and it goes on and on in my head...

    stihl vs oregon

    I see you are in Virginia, whereabouts do you live? You can come try some brand new in the box Stihl rs and Oregon lgx chains I have. You can also run some chains that have been ground a couple times in both Stihl and Oregon and see how a broke in chain compares to new if you like. Offers on...

    Favorite bar.?

    I'm a very big fan of the GB Titanium I just picked up. Very sharp looking and feels solid. I do love a Windsor Speed Tip on any saw!

    $@#%&/!#@&$%_/? So pissed!!!!!!!

    Hey I know hind sight is 20/20 but a couple things I have done to deter/protect/make myself sleep at night a little better, whatever you want to call it, is to write my name on the INSIDES of the handle/gas tank on some saws. I know it is work to drop the tank on some saws but it is an area that...
