    Rule #2 - Keep your chain sharp - or Else!!

    Or else... it will take more time to make a cut. You will create more pollution. You will use more Chain Oil. You will use more pre-mix. Mix + Oil + time = Money. Your Bar will be hotter and wear from leaning on it. There is a greater chance of accidents with a dull saw. Your engine...

    What's your favorite mechanism for tightening chains? And does it loosen the bar or only the chain? Thanks, Nevin

    Rule#1 - Don't run your saw out of gas.

    I took one carburetor apart that sat over winter in a tractor, and vowed to have no more of that. The scum that was in the bowl and low spots of that carb, was just like the scum on the inside of a varnish can lid. What a mess, what a job! Now my Mowers and weed wackers get the "run it out of...

    Rule#1 - Don't run your saw out of gas.

    Rule #2 I think Rule #2 is "Be nice unto others, if ye expect others to be nice unto you"

    Rule#1 - Don't run your saw out of gas.

    An Amish neighbor spends his winters in the woods with a battered Husky in his hands. He cuts his own firewood for his house and Greenhouse, and any time left goes into Mill logs. His #1 rule is not to run your saw out of gas unless you plan to vacation it. His reason is that he thinks the...

    360Pro hop up?

    I'm hardly an engine tech, but I thought 2-cycle ehausts were "tuned" for a given amount of back pressure to limit fuel going out the exhaust. It seems like these holes would defeat the tuning. No? Nevin

    Amish chainsaws

    I have seen the amish using 2-man saws at the wood shed, but mostly they use Chainsaws. I've never seen a saw being filed in the woods. My neighbor has a Husky that gets beat to death. He creates more saw dust with that saw than I have ever seen. It seems that filing his chain means shortening...

    Future saws Same as electric Drills; Batteries. With your sled dog pulling the charger.(optional) Later on: A laser shooting out the end of your chain file. The file is just for memories. :D Nevin

    Stihl slams Lowes & Home Depot

    Lowes "Chainsaw Expert" Four days ago I was in the local Lowes looking at the Husky lineup. After 10 minutes I looked for a uniform, and found 2 guys and a gal kabitzing. I asked for a Chainsaw Expert and one guy said that was his department. I asked him what were the different features of...

    Used saw value chart

    For some, bidding on ebay is like gambling, and they get a high from being high bidder. Common sense seems to take a back seat. Happy New Year, Nevin

    Used saw value chart

    I was not aware that you could search auctions that were over. How is that done? And how many months back will it search? Thanks, Nevin

    Gasoline - 19.2 cents/gallon

    I pumped Gas at an Atlantic station in 1953. I think the price was 19.2 cents a gallon, and then increased to 19.5 cents. Down the street was an Amoco station. Their Regular was called "White Gas". It looked like water and smelled different than Atlantic. I was told it was "No-lead"...
