I think of chainsaws as products to make a buck from. Period.

I still buy as many as possible, but only with the intention of selling.

Sad, happens a lot. You get good at a hobby and turn it into a job and it takes the fun right out.

Morning all. Looking to be a nicer day than the guessers said so no looking to change up the plans.

We have a spring in the middle of the river that's piped to the shore. The GF requested a test. I'd always drank it without issue, and the safety is confirmed.View attachment 293213

Ok, two things.
1. Would kill to have a spot like that.
2. Please elaborate on "spring in the middle of the river". Having a little trouble understanding. Probably a redneck issue.

Morning peeps. I’m thinking about what I want to do with my 262xp as far as Porting. Timing numbers stock are spot on but seems it could use some more intake duration. It’s a duke’s cylinder. Seems good quality but I don’t think I can machine anything off the base unfortunately. I had to clearance the cylinder for the flywheel just without a gasket. Squish is perfect. This is turning out to be a good little challenge.

How come it’s so long is it a supply issue.

Yes, to say our federal government messed up procurement of vaccines it would a severe understatement. They signed all kinds of deals for supply but none of them had dates or performance guarantees on them. As we didn’t do anything to create domestic supply we have been hampered by international embargo’s from US and Europe and no India which is where the AZ was coming from. In order to try and get first doses in arms they are delaying second doses. They might start second doses in June but right now my date is end of August.

Euc job yesterday with questions. More visuals from my buddy later. https://opeforum.com/threads/eucalyptus-job-maintenance-questions.24149/


Last night I about got my other friends husky 450 together. I like simple non strato non clamshell stuff like 2/3 series huskies or my 2159 better...

Same as one on land, water seeps up to the surface at the bottom of the river. Cover the end of pvc with some screen and shove it down in the river bed. Put a 90 on the exposed end above the surface of the river and pipe to the shore.

Thanks! I absolutely love it there and I think I hooked my son this weekend.

Good morning saw hacks. I suppose this is the wrong crowd to ask, but anyone figured out how to stop acquiring chainsaws?

"You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave" they say.

Talk about a sugar rush...just dusted a 10-pack box of Eggo blueberry waffles with butter and syrup...couple that with hair of the dog and I’m ready to cut the damn grass with scissors!

No offence intended. Just don't take life too seriously ay.

Keep safe.

Been like that since the seventies

Only 300 post for the weekend? Some serious slacking up in here. We're a few hours away from loading up to make like a baby. Checked all of the boxes including adding a couple lights and some ability to charge flashlights and devices. It's small but a huge addition. All low voltage for now.View attachment 293208 View attachment 293209 View attachment 293210 View attachment 293211 View attachment 293212

Gfy
Means to an end.
I want more please.

If we really want to have fun with these power heads they should be mounted on a frame like a go-cart with a demo saw clutch and drum. Just saying I'll run anyone heads up for a hundred feet or less with the big saw. Gonna be a lot of clutch problems in that future
I got some classes in mind.
"Excuse me... are you on the pipe or off?"

My friend shot with a .357 revolver what looked like a coyote in the dark yesterday morning 3am
Turns out it was a neighbor's sheppard
It had killed 9 ducks in the barn
Neighbors are threatening legal action
For some reason.
It's all on recorded it's cut and dry
She showed the vid to the cops.

I helped a mechanic working on a jeep compass for a hour trying to get walmart
Tire and lube
Cross threaded lugnuts off
The passenger side.
The driver's side came off fine and he changed brakes.
The passenger side two on the front wheel I tried beating different sized sockets on it
And the hammer on bolt extractors
Didn't work.
We drilled the stud for awhile and said *f-word it
Take it back to walmart.
I cannot stress enough do not take a vehicle to walmart
Stripped oil pan bolts, missing skid plates
Too little or to much oil
Damaged hoods etc.

One of my dads friends did something similar at their cabin in the mountains. Had a spring that joined the creek that ran by. They took 2 sections of 24" well casing, dug down a bit, and set those over the spring head. It fills up and runs over. They got power, so they just put a shallow well pump in it. Plenty of good water.

The irony is my better half just said we are exporting vaccine to India now. I read her your post here.

How's that for logistics. Like wtf... there're now in bad shape over there. Hope your not next.
