The 90 year old has been clearing fence line on a hillside
He was waiting on me when I got home from work he brought me the 250 I gave him
And said it quit working
He needs it tommorowView attachment 294530
It was all kind of fuk'd up
That's a new bar the second one I've put on it he wore the first one out.
I asked if he fell over the hill
Hell no he says.

He stripped the rear bar stud
I put trimmer line in the whole and forced the stud back in.
You can see the cracked rear handle
And the fuel cap is barely holding
I just changed the oil cap last month
It fell apart.View attachment 294533
Here's the hill he clearly fell off of
The chainbrake was tripped that's why he brought it to me.
I got everything fixed and the bar straightened out for him tommorow.
He needs more mix fuel I got him 2 gallons last week.
Stihl makes some oversize bar studs as that is a common problem with them pulling out.

I'd rather have a ice pick stabbed into my eye than to try to make that garbage into a real chainsaw.
One of the mechanics at work gave me a clone 372 x-torque that had hung a ring. I foolishly threw a 52mm hyway top end on it...ran pretty good until the PTO bearing bit the dust two nights ago while cutting trees at my coworker's house. Thankfully I didn't sell this thing to someone else...definitely not spending another dime on it either.

What's up dudes? I'm done for the week. Just in time...starting to get hot here.
Y’all may have similar climate to us? It’s already hot as hell here in west coastal Louisiana. 2 weeks of wet winter lol always humid
