Yeah, I didn't do any of that with my saws!
But I did get to sit on the side of the road with a blown fuel line. My tractor was being PM'd so I got this junk!

I used my Muckaluck to fill a pot hole and my Pukalong I used for a boat anchor.
Sorry, couldn’t resist
.Truth be known, I’ve cut 40 cords in the last month with a BB 2065 which **** the bed yesterday.

Had another red oak that had blown down. Worked on that this weekend and got it all cut up and split. Fiskars X27 and Makita 6401 took care of this one to.

Nice saw - and nice wood!
It will make the best firewood in the world but it tears me up to see that nice wood get cut in to small pieces, it could have been some excellent material for some crafting too...

It does make nice firewood. Some of the trees do get saved. Family member has a sawmill. And thank you on the saw. She’s a ripper.

I sharpened my chains, cleaned the air filters which I am really bad about. It’s been years since I cleaned it, I just never think about cleaning them as long as saw runs. Then I cut a small tree down so I could get the dock and boat lift out. Spent the rest of day filling wood shed.

I see, I guess expectations and interpretations can be deceptive.

My Dolmar I only use for milling, we don't have big trees here and all the Oak was probably used by some guys here about a 1000 years ago making dingy's.
I'd love to have a smaller one for my seasonal stuff like a 420 or whatever the Makita equal is, but I have decided to just use my trusty plastic fantastic H445 until it's not trusty anymore.
I chucked 5 tanks of fuel through it (MS261 - so they went a long way) smashing boxelder trees in my woods. Still have about 25 more to go, but every dead boxelder puts a smile on my face! Right now I am just getting them on the ground and logging (for firewood bucking later) them into lengths I will be able to get out of the woods. Grinding everything under 4". So they go away fast, but there sure are a lot of them. Makes a guy sleep well, though.

Loaded one in my truck for a guy who said he wanted to buy it. He said he would be there at 3:50. I wrote him shortly before then to see if he was going to show. No answer.
Drove home and put the saw back in my garage.

I put in 30 years with UPS and hated every time they PM'ed my truck. One time the radiator sprung a leak and it took a month to get the new one in. I talked to the mechanic and he said the part had been in our regional maintenance facility after the first few days. They were waiting to get a full load of parts coming down our way. When it finally got there, it hadn't sprung a leak, it was a manufacturing defect, and the new one leaked in the exact same spot. After about 20 years I had enough seniority that I would just take the day off when they worked on my truck.Yeah, I didn't do any of that with my saws!
