    hundreds of bee stings

    AKA Africanized honey bees. AKA The Worst Thing That Could Ever Happen To You And You Can't Run Fast Enough And They Don't Give Up. Holy Hell, it sends shivers up my spine just thinking about them. Had some build a hive in the eaves of my house. The stinging sensation doesn't last as long as...

    cylinder question

    I found this illustration in one of my service manuals. I suppose it does have an L shape to it. Is this the L handle one you're talking about? http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2005-11/1105978/006(Small).JPG

    cylinder question

    Or even Wiha. I seriously thought Wiha was a Chinese word until I went looking for what I think is possibly the required tool. I guess it's German. German tool for a German saw, right? I'm thinking that I saw Wiha T-handles at Bailey's. I would think that if they carried these sockets...

    Chainsaw shopping

    For the 044, MS 440, 046, MS 460, 066, MS 660, 084, 088, and MS 880 the warranty is good for three months from date of purchase unless placed into service as a rental. Whether homeowner or professional use matters not. For those saws not listed, you get one year when used for personal, family...

    city ordnances

    That's Ridgeland. Richland is just east of Jackson. Someone has too much time on their hands if they're coming up with ordinances like that. Maybe there's a lot of new construction up that way. Even still, to require the planting of a tree in front of a home seems a bit much. Someone must...

    Top Saws For Ground Use Or Homeowners?

    Just when I was wondering how this thread has gone 4 pages and no one has anything to say about credentials required for chain purchases, someone finally says something. The guy didn't say anything about he wanted an oral demonstration of knowledge. He said he wanted to see some "credentials"...

    city ordnances

    An ordnance or an ordinance? Never heard of any such thing. I grew up in Pearl. Left 25 years ago. An outlying city of Jackson? I'm going to have to guess Clinton.

    Problem with Stihl 015 bar/chain alignment and chain sprocket cover

    It's possible that that hole is supposed to go all the way into the oil tank. I can tell you that if you pull the forward bar stud out of a 460 the hole does go all the way through to the tank. You can drain your oil right through it. Those bar studs are something that I definitely wouldn't...

    My first Stihl 440 mod project

    The spacer is actually described as a chain catcher. P/N 1122 650 7700. Paid $5.94 at a dealer that I suspect charges right at MSRP. The P/N includes 4 separate pieces. It's actually attached to just the outer dawg in such a way that the sprocket cover still comes off just as if that piece...

    My first Stihl 440 mod project

    There can never be too many pictures on AS. You already know what the stock muffler looks like because that's what you've got. This is the dual port from the front. http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2005-11/1105978/127(Medium).JPG This is the dual port from the side. Do you see...

    The Reality Of Trying To Buy A Dolmar...

    Either a vortex or a thread that was started weeks before there was actually a dealer locator.

    How about some saw pics to start the weekend

    I'm fairly certain that the first rule of saw acquisition is supposed to be something like "Why buy one, when you can get two for just twice the price?".

    How about some saw pics to start the weekend

    Assuming that we're all supposed to post pics, here is my not-so-well rounded collection. This collection needs a 361 and then a 660 just for fun. These are what I use to prune the Mesquite trees in my yard. How do you prune a Mesquite? Well, you see that stump to the left...

    Saw pricing

    I don't know a single thing about Huskys. If I'm not interested in something, I typically won't bother to learn about it. Looking at your list now, if the first two saws are supposedly comparable and the last two are supposedly comparable, I can certainly see your point! I've seen what...

    Saw pricing

    As long as the dealer has every type bar in every length available, what he says he is selling as a standard is neither here nor there. Seems to me that what I have observed on this board is that the Stihl prices are mostly standard no matter the location. I'm sure that what I have observed...

    Ianal

    I put that thread title in all caps like it's supposed to be, but the forumn screwed me. That's BS, but what do you do? Pretend all the letters in the acronym are capitalized, if you would.

    Ianal

    Saw this acronym for the first time today up in the Homeowner Helper Forum. The next poster jokingly asks what it means and asks the poster if he's obsessive. The acronym poster states that IANAL expands to I Am Not A Lawyer. I suppose the idea that perhaps the poster is obsessive is a bit...

    Chain saw as air travel luggage?

    If you are able to do so when flying from Sweden, I would recommend that you declare "excess value". At least here in the States, a declaration of "excess value" upon baggage check-in typically isn't going to cost you a whole lot of extra cash. It can be really cheap peace of mind. It's...

    brand new husqvarna 395 dont run

    I would bet that there are plenty of dealers that would need 30 minutes to adjust a carb. We have a dealer for that particular brand about two minutes from my house. I'm almost positive that he deals in saws, but his real deal is riding lawn mowers (the sale of). Chainsaw carbs are probably...
