    70, breezy and no humidity. I got the rest of the red oak cut and split. Feels like fall......

    Great saw! :saw: I owned the precursor to it...a 290. Served me well for several years. Sold it last year.

    Now they're Landpro, right? I go to the one in Macedon most often. My MS291 with the 20" bar has served me well for years.

    Yes they're landpro now. Had it probably 8 years now also with a 20" bar(helps with the not bending over so far as the 18". I'm 6'4"). It's my favorite all around saw.

    NE Ohio. Perfect outside day. I continued splitting on my black walnut tops and started burning out the stumps with wood scraps.

    Stopped at a neighbors because I saw him splitting wood. Intended to help but he shut down and just wanted to BS. Then another neighbor came so nothing got done.

    Nothing? Sounds like alot was accomplished. Getting caught up with neighborly BS is always a good accomplishment. :salute:

    Well, perhaps even more. I have a feeling he will be cutting some wood here this coming winter.

    Really hope that he will be cutting wood this winter. Nice way to get the required exercise for staying young (ha-ha)
