Well, I tried out my Asian Twin (660) #2 today, it is the one my Grandson's helped me assemble. I had my brother's 28" B+C on it, and likely this saw will be going to him. I really liked how it pulled, cut some decent size rounds of dead, hard, Chestnut (Rock) Oak. This one had a less aggressive muffler mod, but it pulled at least as well with it. May have had a bit more low end snot, but they are very close.

I went into the woods with the saw, a Timber Jack, and the X-27. Likely will use a wheel barrow to get the wood out as nothing else will fit.

Of course, the deer had come recently to check things out, and if anyone doubts the X-27 can split tough knots, check out pic #2! You just have to make believe you are mad at it!

Not bad for only being on site for less than 2 hours. You work much harder when you know your time is limited!

The 55 cent O ring I purchased for the fuel cap seem to be working well, and with a 28" bar it had oil to spare! I got no complaints with these Asian oilers.

split and stacked wood, hauled some wood to the house, buried a deer carcass after working on the Bobcat, did some paperwork such as paying taxes, etc, sold a chainsaw, went out for dinner with Groundi and her friend, did more paperwork, getting ready for a pig hunting trip tomorrow.

It's cold and windy here today so I spent some time by the fire with Groundi this morning but then went to the shop and cleaned up a very dirty saw I had disassembled a couple days ago. Started going back together with a Stihl 021. Sorted and labelled a bunch of 1123 series parts. Not sure how many saws I can build up but probably have stuff for at least three of these. Most are the smallest size 021 but I have at least one MS250 and maybe other stuff too. Not sure. Apparently the crank on the 021 is different than the 025 so I can't easily "upsize" the saw like I initially thought I would be able to. (like making the 029 into an 039) Parts are readily available so I'll build one and then go from there.
how are the cranks different?

Utah, unfortunately.....
Spent an hour and half tracking down insurance info for the kid that tried to pull a hit and run on my wife's car, yesterday. I'm sure he was surprised when he saw her chasing after him on foot.....LOL!
The Police rolled up at his house today, and got the information for me.

Well, I don't know what he was driving but that's a pretty soft part of the car. Parking?

Got out the old Cub Cadet with snow blade and cleared out the driveway. Furnace man is supposed to come in a day or two and I don't want to make it hard on him to get to my house..

Installed an aftermarket cruise control in my son's new 2018 Chevy Cruze. So now the Cruze has cruise as it should have had from the factory...

Then I crawled around under a house we're making an offer on to see if there was anything amiss under there. Lots of mud and spider webs but no termite damage visible.

Made a large pot of bean soup and had that for supper.

Now watching the news and how all the schools are closed for tomorrow. They're calling for wind chills in the sub zero range for tomorrow but said this weekend the temps will be in the 60's. How's that for climate change?

Got out for a little while today to play with a few saws and remove 3 legs of Smooth Bark Hickory leaners.

Put a little time on the Asian Twin 660s, then broke out the MMWS 261. It felt like a feather but got the work done, I really like that little saw!

Dropped this Ash today, and a Norway Maple (no pics). The Ash was a bit larger, but the Maple was really leaning the wrong way. Just love that Maddsen Rope Winch, dropped em both right on the money!

Plan to mill the Ash trunk. Was large enough to put my CFB Hybrid with the 28" bar into action. Ran great.

Cut up the rest of what I believe to be Elm, that my buddy had put down a few weeks ago. I'll try burning it in a few years. It's surprisingly light for its size. Probably about 28". The Dolkita ate right through it!

That big bark almost looks like cottonwood.

Hooked up an external hookup box for my generator today. That way I don't need to stretch 50' of cord all across my basement. I now can plug the generator cord into a box mounted on the outside of the house and it goes to my generator transfer switch next to the load center in the basement. I've been wanting to do this for several years and finally got it done.
