    Could be, but I’m not familiar with it.

    You guys writing your names on saws….etch it into the bottom of the cylinder cover above the muffler and cover it with foil tape. Or remove the muffler and do it underneath the existing foil tape on the case. They’ll never see it there

    I'm on a F250 forum and it seems to happen a lot. I'm thinking of parking my wife's closer to the house where I can have a better shot.:whistle:

    Excellent result! Hope the other saws turn up. Wonder what his sentence will be? Slap on the wrist?

    That’s half good news. I got a 460 back after police raided an apartment full of stolen goods. They called in the serial # to find me. It was snatched out of the bed of my truck at a gas station.

    Great to read the update Steve! Very lucky to even have a lead let alone catch the guy. Now if you can just get some luck with the other 2.

    I'd imagine even if you didn't get them back, you could file litigation to recoup some of the loss.

    I wonder if the covid "mail money" drying up here recently has anything to do with the ne'er-do-wells popping up more so lately?
