Mornin' Sawdust Swatters! Around 75F today. First olive picking day.

I'm gonna be a sore SOB tomorrow. Lol. Holding that Stihl KM131 overhead uses muscles that ain't been worked in a while.

Got the raffle saw mailed out.

Ya'll have a good one.

LOL It amazes me how much people buy into Stihl's line of BS. If you buy a saw from anyone, Stihl included, it's yours to do with as you please.

Yep. I can't stand that proprietary carp! Look now, I've got folks in Germany asking for IPL's for saws that are made in their country. The only IPL I've seen so far is the Russian one.

These butt hats are playing some dirty games with us and forcing us to spend our money only at their dealers.

That's why I started getting all my parts at a dealer which doesn't have a service center. I get a discount on Stihl parts and no BS about why I'm ordering that part.

Not like that Kevin (cut4fun) invited me to put up a for sale add in his chainsaw repair page for 462. Lead to all kinds of *b-wording and whining. Guys in the USA saying I am violating dealer agreements and *s-word like that. Don’t need that BS, not selling saws for a living, just trying to put cool stuff in peoples hands.

Fugg those guys, Gary. When I sell a saw on eBay, I always write "I bought it and decided I don't need it" just to avoid all the BS that people are capable of.

They're just jealous and trying to play 'Stihl police' on you because they didn't get the saw before you did.

"FW: Don't drink the sea water... read below first....

The average blue whale produces over 400 gallons of sperm when it ejaculates, but only 10% of that actually makes it into his mate. So 360 gallons are spilled into the ocean every time one unloads, and you wonder why the ocean is so salty..."

So basically it tickels the branches and the olives fall to the ground. I wonder if anyone has ever thoguht of that for harvesting tree nuts...

Same attachment. Don't know if it would work for walnuts, but pistachios and smaller nuts it works. I used it for almonds last year.

The tines are carbon fiber and about 12" long and for nuts the kit includes rubber sleeves that prevent tough limbs from damaging the tines.

Stihl's version uses side-to-side motion to vibrate the limbs. Others have rotating heads.

Surprised it isn't available in the US then.

Yeah. Me too. Especially in Cali and Florida where they have a lot of olives, pistachios and almonds.
