I only took one pickup truck load, but I'll keep going back a couple of times a week after work. I calculated that if I make 30 trips a year, that...
16" long, and usually about 3" in diameter. Perfect for a small woodstove.
Yeah, I have a 1986 U1300L that I managed to squeeze into a spot in the driveway. It has a camper on the back.
Greetings and salutations my FHC friends! Sit right back and listen to the tale I am about to tell, about a magical land, with a magical source of...
Yeah. That's what I'm seeing as well. It was heavy to lift, easy to split, dries very fast, and burns kinda quickly with a medium heat.
Wow. That was a big one. I scrounged about cord of poplar about a year ago. I cut it, split it and stacked it, and am burning it this winter as...
Yeup. That's the way mine is too. Even when the wood is super dry, I'll have to leave the door cracked till the fire gets going. But once going...
Hello All. I tried to order a replacement China carburetor from ebay, and (of course) it wasn't the right one. But while I had the saw apart, I...
I like those 193s. Such a lightweight saw, with just enough power for small jobs.
I've been looking for some 'backup' saws for 'just in case' and the prices are nuts around here and on-line. If you can find a 261 or 461 (regular...
These days, as I gather logs from the woodpile for the evenings fire, I put the ends of a few pieces of kindling in a plastic jar that as about 2"...
I kind of like how each type of wood has its own physical properties in terms of how they split and burn. Someone sure did design an interesting...
I've always loved to hoard firewood. Even when I lived in a dense suburb in Southern California, I would still bring wood back home and have...
Hey, hey hey... I spent many winters North of Burlington VT with hoar frost on the inside of my windows. I'm not a thermal weenie. But then again...
I'm up at 3500 feet. It can get cold, and I only have a wood stove for heat. In the wise words of Johnah Street (Dakar motorcycle racer) too much...
So, I think, I've got six or seven cords to last me through the winter. That, and I've got a local saw mill that will give me the leftover slabs...
No saw should ever be on the dumpster. That's just wrong.
+1 for the older 261 saws. I keep looking for another to keep as a spare, if I could find one at a good price.
In your experience, when do the YJ's settle down so we can start brush cutting again?
Galaxy Quest. (I'm a hard core science fiction fan too.) P.S. China carb has been ordered. On the plus side, I can have this saw apart in less...
