    Building roads in wetlands

    You realy want to start that again? Until you meet me, look over my business files and maybe spend a day in the trees with me you have no right or qualifications to judge me in any way and the same is true of the OP of this thread. ETA Then again you are the mod so you have access to a...

    chain Nail damage

    Depending on bad you hit the nail, you should be able to round file it back far enough to gain a new, bur free edge on the tooth.

    Building roads in wetlands

    And thus AS has succeeded in driving away another member. It's funny how message board members (and not just those here) can form so many rigid conclusions about someone based on so very little. But oh well Sod breaker

    Building roads in wetlands

    My two cents.... The OP offered MORE then the land was worth for an easement, Hes not trying to condemn it and take it for nothing, although he should consider it if his neighbors continue to be A-Holes. I'm not a big fan of "city slickers" moving into the country anymore then the next guy...

    Value of (non running) 272 Husky?

    Just wondering what a 272 with no compression might be worth and what it would take to get it running. I might be able to pick one up cheap from the local pawn shop. I fiqure a whole new top end, piston, etc., I didn't ask him for a price on it as I haven't researched it fully yet. Mainly...

    Building roads in wetlands

    For what it's worth one of the guys I work for pretty frequently ( in Jenkins) had some land that was land locked from the road. He fought for an easment but the land owner wanted an absurd price for the easement. So he took the land owners estimate of what he thought the land was worth to the...

    To Buy, or not to buy a 362?

    Well I've been doing some window shopping. Was in a dealer today that had both Husky and Stihl. I compared them both ( 362 and 562) side by side. The husky did seem a little lighter. But not enough to justify the almost $75 dollar price premium.:msp_scared:. Also the master switch was...

    To Buy, or not to buy a 362?

    Well in the past I've run a 036 and a 360 Stihl. And I owned a 365 Husky. Didn't notice much of a difference between these two. I haven't had a chance to run a 362 or a 562. But just from searching on the web there doesn't sem to be that much difference in wieght or power. But I did look...

    To Buy, or not to buy a 362?

    I'm thinking christmas is coming and the saw shop has a shiny new 362 Stihl. $700 Out The Door, not sure how good of a deal that is? He ate the sales tax but that's it. Penciled the numbers and it wouldn't take long to pay off. My boss I worked for last winter called me back to work part...

    moding an 026 Stihl, any thoughts

    Been thinking more and more of having my 026 Stihl gone through and reconditioned. Besides the usual honing the cylinder, new rings, a carb kit, etc. I've been thinking of a muffler mod and a port job. Looking for input as to what else would make this saw perform better. I would like to keep...

    Anyone build / have a chainsaw box?

    I scabbed together the very thing you are talking about building. Wanted to see how it would look. I offer the following thoughts. 12-14inches wide will fit most non-wrap handle saws. any wider and it wastes too much space in the pickup box. I made mine 4ft long wich is about right for...

    Requesting township approval...

    Kind of funny ain't it? Eerybody is so D*mn worried their neighbor might be "getting away" with something. The land of the free and we need a permit just to P*ss on a tree. Good luck to the OP with the politcal BS and hope it works for you.

    Ghetto grapple skidder idea

    FWIW I've also been toying with the idea of building a log skidder. I probably will never actualy build it. But day dreaming helps me get through the other wise boring work days. I figured out so far: 300-6 Ford, 4+4 trany behind it. Plus a 2spd trans case. Use two semi truck axles...
