    020 av

    My 020 is on the bench for a winter check up. 100 different things to do needed to be done yesterday. I hope another member offers something of help. It will be another few weeks till I blow the dust off ... unless the weather has me burning the midnight candle(s). Just curious, how well used...

    020 av

    Did the bubbling happen with a warm saw and was then refueled? If yes, with that fuel cap,it is normal. Been there, done that.

    Best splitting Maul

    mauls 10 years ago we bought a gas powered hydraulic splitter and I AM ETERNALLY GRATEFUL. Nothing has been mentioned regarding SHARPENING the edge of the maul. Sharpen that thing like you would sharpen an axe. I have used four manual methods to split wood over almost 40 years. Monster...

    why are my credits not showing up

    I thought I was being punished. Wouldn't be first time. I suppose it's better than being flogged. Or worse, the chainsaw police holding my saws as punishment.:laugh:

    Just got myself a STIHL 024 AV.

    20$ for a running 024 Stihl? Do you really need a hand on the back of your hand when patting yourself on the back for your good find? A resentful " you suck" as I too found an 024 once upon a time for $20.

    What Skills Should You Have to Use a Saw?

    To get a driver's license, one needs to pass tests. To legally purchase a firearm, one needs to pass a back ground check. To buy a chainsaw, one needs only money. A chainsaw is perhaps, THE most potentially dangerous tool the average person can buy. I wish I had pictures of saws, chains...

    Saw chain sizes

    Running a Stihl (.325 x .063) .... ? Or a Husky mid size (.325 x .058) That small difference in driver size will make a difference in cutting straight cuts vs. curves.

    Where is the love??????

    Polarized thinking. Grumpy vs. hopeful. I would ride the modded KLR 650 to work if only I could make a rack to carry the 2x and 24 ft ladder. Snow or no snow. Takes all kinds. Nice to know there are others who wish for less grumpiness. Don't have a mirror in the house without a fist crack in...
