I worked in a shop once that had a worm gear drive big circ saw. We used it for cutting the cast aluminum tanks off of charge air coolers. That mother worked like a charm. It cut aluminum like its was pine. Needed lotsa wax though....
I just got back from Williams Creek fire as a type 1 HELO manager. I'm surprised you're not out on a fire, there's a couple of good ones in your area plus central Cali is going up now.

Don't forget Southern Cal. Cali is up in smoke cheech and chong style.
BC has had some duzzy fires this year.

Have not been out since de-mob on July 21, typical political BS. I am not waiting around and turning down work anymore.
I'm with you there. I never did sign up for one of those associations, it always seemed like there was a core group of good old boys who got all the work. Oh well, screw it. There's other things to do. Between saws and contracting, I thinking you'll be pretty busy.

Yeah, ready to be home at night - I am into my fitness big time, been doing it at home daily, and my son is busy with football - nice to be in a routine.

Fire season has started early here this year, up the coast where the SIL is they hit 100*F last week and it's still winter :jawdrop:
There's been fires starting all over the state, with the local bushfire crew out to two fires at the end of last week (both started by cockies (graziers) burning stumps and crap.....one of them was the brigade deputy captain....)

Woke up to -2 C this morning. You'd think it would kill the black flies, but it brings them out in hoards as the day warms up.

That's pretty cool for this time of year. It's been in the 60-70* F range here.

I suspect he isn't doing well these days, his website has been down for about a year, and he had health issues even before that.......:censored:
Jokers also left the sites he was on (as far as I know) at about the same time.
