Now that we have AT saws, it's about time for an "AT" splitter. Imagine having a a small laser measure that would scan the log quickly (think a photo scanner for reference) figure up the size and deploy the necessary wedge(s) to make a near perfect split each time... Ok, now my brain hurts...:hmm3grin2orange:

Good Morning guys. It sure is nice to leave for work from home.:msp_thumbup::msp_thumbup:

I have several splitter / designs if you wish to see what not to do.

Picked up an Echo from Iowa Friday. New in box... Very nice saw...

 

[rburg]

That is an echo model that I would like to run one day. Are you going to port it?

Not for a while... My nephew adopted it already... I sorta had him in mind for it anyway.
He liked it first time he laid hands on it...

Well I see the mag case. That looks like a stout saw. I'm curious how it'll run compare to a 357xp/562xp/039 or MS361-2/Dolmar 6401... Tell 'ya what Matt, I'll trade you the Dolkita for that saw, just to have another potential 7900!!!:yoyo:

I just received a package in the mail that I was not expecting. I thought what the heck is this. It didnt take me long to find out what was inside, a brand new stihl cap. Apparently at the spring gtg I had teased a member enough about stealing his stihl hat that he felt sorry for me and sent me a christmas present.

So a big thank you goes out to MOJIM the kindness will not be forgotten. :msp_thumbsup:

Evening Gents,worked on another 028 super today. Stripped it down and gave it a good cleaning and reassembled it. New starter rope and handle,put some good looking covers on it and changed it over to a rim type sprocket,etc. Fired up fine,adjusted carb and put her in some wood,I could even lean on it and no bog,just kept throwing chips. I thought allright,then I noticed gas seeping out of the back of the gas tank.:bang: Put it back in the garage and went and got a cup of coffee to settle my nerves. I'll change the handle out another day.
I spent the rest of the afternoon moveing and stacking a big pile of wood I wanted too get under cover before the snow storm hits tomorrow night.
