It is possible to get some peaches. I used to always loose my peaches to rot, then one year I got a few that didn't while 95% did rot, and this without any spraying. The tree died the next year. I don't know why, but it may have been from me pruning it during the warm season and letting it get...

Broken cat toy. The string (with no longer functioning elastic) is a lot more fun than the little mouse on the end.

Mind if I post about polyticks?

You could always do something different and chuck it in front of a semi on the interstate. Monetize the the video and you could buy lots more saws.

Gotta at least get to 10,000 pages before the lock. Too close to start over

I don't know if you can hear if it is a steady idle or a surging one like if it's running out of fuel. Surging would indicate an air leak in the fuel system.

I think more power = more heat, but I've never verified stock vs ported cyl & muff temps. Just mill in cool weather. Too rich will also put more heat in the muffler, which can radiate into other parts of the saw.

I've smashed the AM with success, just have to go easy as to not strip/slip it. What happened to right to repair? Tractor owners need access to software, and we need access to a simple tool of basic maintenance that used to be included in the manual.

Actually, I got an OEM case to put the engine in, I just need to get around to it.

Why not just solder some thin squares of sheet metal (copper or something) on there to patch those contacts? Add a new cell, and you have 2 trimmers now. Easy fix in my opinion, I thought I was going to see you fix it.

I'd probably stick witha slow chain speed in really hard stuff, but I haven't experimented much with extremely hard woods.
