Fixing and building chainsaws is my only source of income so I have no choice but to take em seriously.
I'm alergic to poison but not as much now as when I was young. I spent some time in the hospital and later with my arm in a sling behind that *s-word. Yellow jackets are some mean little *b-wordes but we get the Japanese hornets in the pear tree that are real stout.

Ive told this before but about 5 years ago I was cutting timber and dropped a big soft maple that was hollow towards the top and was filled with honey bee's.
I was standing on the stump in the edge of a corn feild and one stung me on the ear so I shut my saw off and could hear a loud swarm so I ran but the only way out through the horse weeds was where the skidder drug the hive tree and I didn't know it was a hive tree until I was running through honey comb on the ground.
I ran a 1/4 mile until I couldn't run anymore all the while being stung by them basterds,I covered my head with my shirt and they finally quit.
Guy I was working with picked 200 stingers just off my head.
That sucked

I've had bad luck with bees. I sprayed a yellow jacket nest one day and got stung by a honey bee walking back across the driveway on my ring finger. It swelled so fast I almost had to cut my wedding band off.

Last couple years I've been enjoying the flaming pain of a red wasp or as I like to call them a red dragon, they make me so pissed off that when I kill one of them I talk *s-word to it.
I get stung all the time

@RI Chevy , lean that 046 out. Don't worry about what the tach says, just use it as a reference later when it's running right. It's way too fat. If you find that it's turning 16k, that's OK. I think looking at the tach is hurting you here. I understand you are being careful. If you roast the piston, I'll fix it. The way that saw is ported, it may certainly be happy in the 15k range.
Lean it out till it cleans up in the wood with bar pressure.
Poison Ivy- I've weed wacked it in shorts, no issues. My kids think of it and get a rash. I'm not allergic at all.
When I bought my house, the lady who owned it said "There is poison Ivy in the back. Be careful". So I went in the back, saw a fenced off area, and counted "leaves of 3". I grew up in beach town, never saw poison ivy, ever.
I used every method possible to kill the stuff. I spoke to the prior owner a month later and told her I killed all the ivy. She asked me how. I told her Many methods, every thing inside that fencing is dead. To which she replied:
"That was a strawberry patch"

I respect the fact that you guys take your trade seriously. You both do great work. [emoji106]Fixing and building chainsaws is my only source of income so I have no choice but to take em seriously.
My comment was geared more toward Saw Brands, not the work that was done to them. Seems that friendly banter gets taken out of context from the other side of the keyboard. All in good fun.
Keep up the good work guys. [emoji481]

I was just agreeing with Jim and nothing else.
I don't care about what kind of saw somebody likes,I care about the saws with my name on them and the people who own them.
Makes me no difference what kind,I see a different saw every day.

Not to be hateful but I think that anybody who does not get poison oak/ivy/sumac should have just one good case of it so they know how lucky they are. It is absolutely miserable. A man never truly knows how much his private parts move throughout the day until he has poison oak on his vitals.
