Never did much for bomb proofing. Have laid brush to catch chunks from rolling.

2 man timber carrier. Not only useful for moving logs, have dragged white pine tops to the chipper. Pick up the butt end and lift with one man on each side of course. These days I prefer to leave it up to a mini loader. Let the hydraulics do the work. Articulating mini loaders ...... essential.

His production will come to a crawl when he realizes you're not there and he owes ya coin.

I make my own winter weight. I use a clean windshield washer jug, because it's opaque and I can see the contents. I drain all my ''empty'' bar oil jugs, motor oil, trans oil, hydraulic fluid, ....anything oil. I get about a gallon a year. To make more, I'll use regular bar oil thinned with a bit...

If this was my neck of the woods, I'd charge 500 for a complete removal. I'm a sucker for helping people in need. Seems your daughter doesn't have anyone capable, and we all struggle to make ends meet at times. I could take my leisure time and have it done in a few hours with minimal gear and a...

I was just poking at ya.....class clown I can be at times. Hence the Yuncks. It's your thread even..... tie away. :D

I think you spend to much time tying knots. Yunck, yunck, yunck.

I've gained access with a plastic felling wedge and heavy duty coat hanger. The wire is 3/16'' thick. It can pull or push. Buttons are no problemo. I've even rolled down a manual crank window. One of my trucks has a loose 4 wheel drive, manual shifter boot. With the keys in the ignition, off...

I have a 2100. i didn't recognize the one in Norm's pic, for mine is missing its filter cover. In it's place is a velocity stack with a BHAF. Saw has be heavily moded including finger ports. I don't classify this Husky as a work saw. I haven't raced it yet. Ran it for a minute or two to hear it...

288?

Bump. Interested for feedback, myself.

I joined here a bit ago when invited by another member. Butch welcomed me in intros right out of the gate. I never spent much time here. From all the posts, it seems I have missed knowing a remarkable man and then some. RIP

All it takes is knowledge and the right tooling.

I have a decent arsenal of Stihls. 066, 440 mag, 036, 029, 460, 261c, 201tc, and a 200. Love them all ....... surprisingly I am not brand biased. I do have an old Echo top handled back up, a 193 top handle, and even an old eager beaver top handler with manual oiler. I love my Stihls. Wouldn't...

Cut back a bit of the cover. Slide on a piece of shrink tubing and set it out of the way. Form a tight eye with the wire core. Tack weld in place then put the shrink on it. That is if you have access to a welder. Oh, and be sure to lightly grind the surface so your welds will "stick."
