I was about to question your sanity, but then I caught on. Dohhh!

Yup!

I'm 83 years old and I have never found anything as good as the no-spill cans, I can lift the heavy 5 gallon up on the tractor put the spout in the gas hole & push the button, none of the trying to get the spout in the hole before the gas flows, same with saws on the ground, put the spout in the...

It has been many years since I trapped beaver, maybe I didn't sharpen that often but others with cheap knives did.

I see people putting a whole lot more effert into this than I would. Have you ever skinned a beaver, nothing dulls a blade faster, every inch must be cut away, your sharpening methods would double the time as it sometimes takes three sharpens on a big beaver if your skinning clean.

I have a ported 359 cyl on a 357 bottom, b g delete, muff mod, fed by a 372 carb. It pulls an 8 pin with 18" bar, makes long chips.

I think somebody on the other forum is looking for one of them. My Huskvarna 358 could pull that bar, but I have enough crap.

He sent me one of those 24" premium light bars from the raffle, I put it on a ported 372 and threw a new husky c83 chain on it then buried it in some dead red oak logs, oh man! did that combo cut!. No floppyness in the bar & it balanced that saw perfectly.

My Tsumura bar arrived today from MG2186, it is mighty fine looking bar.

Thank You.

I tried to message @MG2186 to give him my address but he has limmited access.

I'll go with #8, D009 husky 3/8 .50 thank you.
