Great imagery.:rofl: :lol: Makes sense though, stuffing all of the parts into a tinier place will make things more difficult.
I haven't worked on a top handle yet, and the only Homelite I've worked on is my dad's antique homelite, and that was just a carburetor...
A coworkers Poulan, never maintained like I told him, multiple times.
After a tune up the saw runs great! The chain needs a sharpening desperately though.
Hopefully this doesn't discern her from using the ax, it's a beautiful tool.:yes:
That old saw looks pretty clean.o_O
That's amazing porting work, can't imagine the decibels that puts out.;)
I prefer the axe/maul, there's a good days labor in swinging the axe. American Elm is nasty wood to split but I did about a cord of it with a maul...
How I look at it basically. If I cant earn the muscle through honest labor it's useless.
I light the wood when I get home from work and keep it going all the way until I go to bed. I let the oil run once a night to keep the pipes under...
I have someone at work who pays 100 a month for a gym membership, he may be stronger than me basically but I asked him to split a chord with me...
Indeed, splitting and stacking may be hard work but all of it pays off in the end. :yes:
Nice looking stack, and I have to admit that's a 1/3 chord. And good wood at that.:yes:
Hickory is some good btu's good days work there.:yes:
I still have a hard time trying to tell the misses how to tell the difference between seasoned and unseasoned wood.:D
If not for the distance I'd be there, I'd go to one in Central/Western N I agree.:D
It's like seeing oil and water in communion.
And that's why I hate reading the forums at night...I just know I have wood up there to get.:headbang:
I do believe I drew that one on my last glass of Jim Beam......:whistle:
