Even mo-betta, sit a round on its side, noodle a groove as deep as the bar is wide (or so), then hit that groove with a maul, or set a couple...
I'll suggest that there are mauls out there in the 5-6 lb range that you might well like better than the light fiskars or the 8-pounder. Problem...
The "Atlas thermal" gloves are for cold weather. The non-"thermal" ones for the warmer weather. For really nasty-cold weather, I keep a pair of...
IME a saw warranty is only as good as a dealer who'll go to bat for you on enforcing it. Not too many such dealers, unfortunately- they don't make...
There's a big spread of noise levels among basic one-lungers. The LCTs I've encountered are much quieter than "comparable" flatheads from Briggs &...
What? Nobody's said it yet? You truly suck! :cool: Congrats!
Pipe probably worked loose as a result of many heating/cooling cycles and resulting expansion/contraction. IME if you want smokepipe junctions to...
Unfortunately the GLOBAL issue goes way beyond weather, or even climate, in any limited region. It takes massive data input to supercomputers,...
My 576XP-AT arrived with a 28". Wanted that for milling, and crosscutting the bigger stems I encounter. But ... since I had K095 20" & 24" bars...
Folks in central CA might have a different take on that. Extended precip shortage there- agriculture is #1 economic force in CA. Or was ... Some...
Easy. Look for stuff growing out there with poplar leaves on it. Cellulosic butta. :whistle: Buck to length & haul.
Maybe some of us are not in tune with Stihl's codes. You could tack in some communicative ones, like "SC" or "RdCh". No need for translation then....
A bit back I bucked & hauled home a few truckloads from a BIG old beech that Sandy pruned badly. I'd read that beech is difficult to split. Not so...
"Seasoning" with regards to wood has no real meaning. "Air-drying" is the name of the game here, and in wood-products industry. Some woods (e.g....
You'll like the LGX Oregon chain too. Funny how the OEM 20" bar on that saw takes 70 DL 3/8" chain, though. Most all other 20" K095 bars need 72...
I've had probs with a couple saw carbs when I put the saw away after running it dry. Seems the diaphragms took a day or two to adapt to being wet...
I've had a PP5020 for over 3 yrs now, and it's proven to be much more than I expected, in terms of power, a/v and endurance. Not perfect (not even...
Reportedly American Sycamore triggers allergic reaction for many sawyers. Might be a problem with sycamore, with noodling it too, since it's...
Got a 100' reel of Woodland 3/8", .050" ripping chain coming Monday from Bailey's. Essentially the same price as crosscut chain. Having a...
Good to hear from you. It's been a few years. Even if this property gets picked clean (fat chance of that), there are many more leaners yet to be...
