Hey guys, what's going on?


I just got finished cleaning out my deep freeze. Seems I unplugged it last month when I was figuring out which circuit breaker went to an outlet I was replacing..... forgot all about it until I went to get some deer sausage for my students. Pretty nasty stuff. Lost about 60 lbs of deer sausage, homemade tomato juice, and a bunch of freshly frozen salmon filets my friend's sister caught in AK this year.

Note to self: Be sure the freezer is plugged in, unless I am defrosting it.

Sold one of my early "tuition" 026s last week. Guy loves it, is very happy with it. I lost a bit of change on it, but I got what it was worth. Glad to be moving in the right direction. I don't need all these darn saws. I like using them, but duplicates are a bit silly for me to have as a personal firewood cutter.

Let me know if you are able to salvage that freezer. I've never seen it done before.
 
Freezer seems fine. Cleaned it out, it doesn't stink now. It was unplugged about a month. I will check it weekly after I put this year's deer meat in it. Are you saying that it might be ruined? It's about twelve years old.

Sorry to hear about the deep freeze John,good you were able to salvage it.

I hate to let go of a good saw,yet I've been thinning out my herd too.Sold a minty 044 to a good friend of mine that wanted a "real" saw.Sometimes it's good to see em' go........to a good home anyway......:D
 
The ones I have seen, belonging to other people, stunk so bad it permeated the plastic.

???????????????????????????????


Good if yours survived!

Say it ain't so!!:cry::cry: Man, that was some good stuff!

WOW! I waited too long to check posts. My head is spinning I'm half blind from power reading to catch up.:dizzy:

Stephen, count me in if you would.

I guess I'll have get to work putting some of the saws together that I've got scattered everywhere.

Baking soda does wanders friend but it sure stinks until you get er cleen

I used Windex about three times. Got most of the stain out, and it doesn't seem to stink any more. Am leaving it open a day or so, we'll see how it turns out.
 
I'll bet the garbage men hated that load. :hmm3grin2orange::hmm3grin2orange::hmm3grin2orange:

I have only ever sold one running saw an 036. I have traded off saws for Stihls but that is not like just selling one. I decided I wasn't doing that again. I bought an 036 to replace it, and have been trying to buy that first 036 back for a year. I can't wait for it to break down so I can get it back, but that saw just won't die. I offered the same money he gave me for it. Long and short of it is, selling saws hurts me to the core.

I hadn't seen you post in a while, happy to see you around. Did you see Barneyrb's (He was at the first GTG) 1050 he got, its a nice looking saw.

My work pants wont button very esey

I've been lucky, no Christmas partys yet for me. I have only one to attend.:D

I just remembered Stumpy telling me he was going back to work on the road
and he's usually gone a week or two. Bet he has no portable internet.

I'm sure that's right. Double bagged and sealed the best I could, waited till the night before collection day to put it out. Might not be too bad for them until the ram squeezes it out of teh bags............. <insert puke smiley here>
 
John,

I know how you feel on the sausage. Someone unplugged the concession trailer at Bighohnstons and we lost about 60 pounds cajun sausage. At 3.50 a pound that hurt.

Are you gonna be around next week. I have a couple stihl saws that are driving me crazy. Thought may-bee you could take a look at them for me.
 
I worked on some 36 inch plus wood today, trouble is, it is still in the air. Maybe Friday or Saturday :)hmm3grin2orange:) I can get it lowered.


For those of you counting, it will be medium wood. :chainsawguy:

I should be around. Haven't seen you in a while.

The sausage was a bite, but more of that is coming soon. Got three deer so far.

What really chapped my asp were the five huge fresh-frozen Alaskan salmon filets my gf got when she was up there visiting this summer. Oh well, she lives up there now, and I might be able to finagle a bit more of that stuff.

Yep that is definitely a nice looking saw for sure :drool:


Tammi scooped ashes out of the insert tonight and asked me what this was. Told her that it was a sickle bar section. Not sure why it was there. Maybe improvised twine cutter or something.

I'm sure glad that I missed it with the saw somehow. That would have been a chain waster. :(
