I saw that on TV too. That is a lot of mice. A lot. I couldn't imagine going through that. Have you got... crap, forgot you guys have heavy restrictions on guns and ammo down under. I was thinking a 12 or 20 gauge with squirrel shells and just unloading that onto them mice. Box after box until almost all of them are done for, then digging a big hole for a mass grave and scooping them all into it. I know, it's somewhat brutal, but if that ever happens here, that's what I'm doing.

My current project is my 1987 Husky 61 that I am turning into a 272. Getting parts has been like pulling teeth but I am getting there.
I took a big risk, since this project has been dragging on waiting for parts, I decided to try my first ever port job on the 272 jug I got from Baileys. Needless to say I am chomping at the bit to get all of the rest of the parts I need in so I can see if this thing runs ok. Nervous as hell being the first time I have ever tried porting work.
that would be fun for about an hour then it would get boring.. then you'd have to get creative like a ditch filled with carbon dioxide and a conveyor at the bottom to keep the bodies from piling up at the bottom..
god, i'm sick...
anyhoo my 272 was just on the bench getting the carb cleaned and now the tame thing (sigh)is back up getting the final touches done to the port job..

7oaks, where did she find that baby rat? i remember as a kid we cleaned out the hay barn and had a rat killing. the cats caught so many that they stopped even chasing them when they ran by. there were about 8 of us, ranging in age from 7-~50 years old. i think we killed in excess of 200 rats in one afternoon.
That's a score in and of itself.
What are you guys up to? Sure wish this work paid like a software engineer. I don't know how I had time for a job, lol.
- I had 23 chains dropped off last night for sharpening.
- Got a 365 Special that needs carb work.
- Need to put a new brake handle on a 200T.
- Delivering the four BR600s.
- Need to drop and limb about a dozen more trees in the neighbors yard.
- Locked up BG86 that needs inspection.
Well shucks, Brad, figured you'd be cruisin' easy street now that you're C.S.I. certified!
Looks like I'm going to be busy for a while. There are 10 FS 80Rs, 4 FS 90Rs, and one Shindy. I've also got two saws that need porting.
Most any shop has a bunch of old trimmers...seems you can't get rid of them. I have several, some run, just can't sell them locally and they're too long to mail..postage would be more than the trimmer is worth.
I'm just going through them for the owner and fixing what is reasonable. On the BR600s, he got back 4 runners out of 6.
