    The guy on the saw is using a 441. Fills the tank with straight gas then a splash of power steering fluid. 5w-20 for bar oil. Smells rancid. I would school him but he no speaka engish.

    What a great day. Some extra jingle in my pocket. Came home and wife was painting bee boxes for me. My forester came to prepare for a timber harvest on my prooperty. Going now with my son to see what trees he marked. And no pants needed!
