If I had a need for a chainsaw it would be a Still. This is the newest model compared to the 036 I've run. It's got great power to weight ratio You can run up to a 25" bar which is plenty for most homeowners. The full wrap makes it easy to cut in any position.

Believe it or not. But a lot was cut using a Milwaukee M18. I definitely ran it through it’s paces. I’ve been eyeing a battery powered saw for awhile and finally picked one up. Super happy with the fact I won’t need to rebuild/replace the carburetor next year. lol
My friend was helping me and he did all the climbing up high with an echo saw. I think it was the 303t.

I believe it. I have a friend I've camped with in the winter and he's brings a Milwaukee cordless. Even in the low teen temperatures, he still manages to cut down 2-3 trees and process the wood on about one battery. Good shit.

I have a Kobalt cordless pole saw that works great. I had reservations about a cordless saw, but I no longer do.
I will say that my Husqvarna gasoline powered saw has never failed to start, even after sitting for a year, sometimes. It has always ran great. The only problem I’ve had with it, is that the bar oil leaks out. I was told it was a common problem with the saws from the time I bought it, which was 11 or 12 years ago.

I would not hesitate to buy one of those. My Dad bought a Stihl about a year ago, and it is great. I have a Stihl weed eater, and blower, that I bought at least 8 years ago. I’m wondering if I’ll ever wear them out. They always start pretty easy. Much better than cheaper models. Now, if I were going to carry one in a Jeep, I’d do like HighwayTrout and get a battery operated model.

I think every chain saw has that problem with the chain oil leaking

Not like this MF. Dad’s Homelite doesn’t, nor does his Stihl. It runs straight through that Husqvarna, like diarrhea. I don’t fill it up. I put a little in, and check it periodically while I’m using it. I’ve never seen a saw lose bar oil like this one.

Thanks. A fun little project. Hadn't done anything like that for awhile, so I was happy the boy asked me to do it.

That thing is sweet. Looks much better than the one Lisa had bought for us to use. It arrived and we both said we couldn't use it...haha. I made a lot of things for our wedding. I liked having the personal touches. It's always better than buying things that everyone can.

Dryer belt broke. It broke because the plastic idler pully was half gone. My daughter was drying her clothes so I blamed her not the fact it's 16 years old (older than she is..haha).
I didn't unplug it and during the process of putting it back together I touched a live wire and shorted it out. It popped a breaker but wasn't evident on the panel. I went around the house for 2 hours checking plugs and gfi's. Went and flipped all the breakers and one was acting weird. I forced it to off and back on then it worked. It reminded me of overlander a couple weeks ago..haha.

That came out really cool. What kind of burner do you have?

Thanks. I was gonna order one because time ran away from me, but I wasn't happy with what I saw online.
Thank you!
Thanks. It's a kit I picked up from Hobby Lobby. The box says Walnut Hollow. It's a multipurpose tool. Can be used for wood burning soldering, leather stamping, etc. The iron has adjustable heat and interchangable tips.

Decided to take a wall out and make a breakfast bar in my new house. All that’s left is to mount the bar top.

Looks great! ... Really opens things up. I did the exact same thing when I bought my house. Make sure that wall isn’t bearing and the ceiling joists are running parallel or you will get sagging and cracking without a header.
Here’s mine:
Used a 1/4” steel plate for the counter support
Butcher Block Counter
