    My chaps used to do double duty as a shoulder pad when I was a EFFer and I had to hike a mile or 3 to get to the line.

    My chain does not move freely on the bar so to sharpen it I have to remove it

    I have a corded Poulan saw that I bought at a garage sale. It appears to be unmolested and the chain moves freely by hand.

    Drop Start, no, yes, when, never.

    Been running a saw in the winter/deep snow for close to 50 years and drop start is all I got.

    what's the weirdest thing you have used a chainsaw for ....

    Used to have sled dogs, had a contact with a horse vet, he would call me to remove dead horses that were good for dog food. Sometimes in the winter the dead horses were frozen and too far from the truck, so..Jonsereds 49sp on the job. Truck would get some "looks " on the way home. Dallas
