this is not in response to madbomber's post today, I don't disagree with some of what was said there.
I just think that there are people here who have been and are now concerned with the business and technicalities of logging, treework and chainsaws in general, and I just want to say thank you to all who have contributed, especially in a positive manner, to the genuine problems and challenges this activity presents.
The other night I tried to write what I thought was a new thread about my 034 that wouldn't come down off run to idle. Some people have no idea how frustrating it is to try and make your saw run right, with hours and hours of tweaking the H and L screws, having it run well when finally warmed up, but next morning you pull the daylites out of the thing and finally break the recoil rope and ready to throw the thing out in the metal recycler. Then you try to write a new thread, and by magic something called similar threads shows up with, when you read them, thank the Lord, the question has already been asked and answered by someone who knows,(and sometimes someone who thinks they know) how to diagnose the problem, someone who cares about a problem a guy has in Northern Vermont, who just wants to be able to feed his Wood Monster--no wait that's a Wood Master,--and keep warm during the frigid--no wait, we're supposed to call it Global Warming, -- -28 degree mornings.
So thank you fellas and gals, I can read through the chaff, like I can with every thing else I read. Keep it up, keep it positive, or at least funny, and thanks again.
