Good morning!!!!

[Buppies]

Snow still in forecast 2 to 5 for my area more if it does not start as rain UTV before this very warm temperatures this morning with high close to 70 but becoming very windy not really ideal for shooting tar and gravel but we shall see.

For all my gas motors use gas without ethanol higher price but less problems. Also in October start using sea foam, guess we've been lucky so far

Hello David, we only use Propane for our On Demand Hot Water and I have two 100 pound (23 gallon) tanks that I haul to the hardware store in town and they fill one for $69.00 so that is $3.00 a gallon.

Looks like he's cutting some ash and has a short bar on it ... 16" maybe ?

That one is a little older than mine (you can tell by the lettering on the nameplate) ... but a good bit cleaner.

IIRC, mine has electronic ignition ... don't think the older ones did.

RS, I just can't believe you left your nice chain saw outside in the rain.

... the rain ?

LOL ... it spent last winter over there ... it's been MIA for probably over a year

Looks great too ... considering (for as old a saw as it is ... 30 years ?) ... it's all that oil

Now if my wood splitter frame would just magically turn up I'd be all set ...

in case it doesn't start, here's a little how to for you:

Well, after I fixed the recoil spring (it really needs a new one) and threw some fresh gas in it, it started right up after a couple pulls

Compared to my nephews MS250 this thing actually has some nuts ...

at the end it tells you to put away.

It was put away ... in outdoor storage, right next to the log pile where I'm going to use it next ...

:laughing:

Coffee has finished brewing. 60° (Cincinnati, OH) with cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 60° (Nashville, TN) with wind and some sun. Should be a interesting drive with wind gust predicted over 50mph.
wngsprd, Seafoam may be your best friend for a gas problem.
Good Morning All.

My 031 was purchased in 1972. Still runs like new. But I have never stored it outdoors. :confused2:

I do not have a clue what UTV is doing in there, spell check I suppose. We filled up two one hundred pound tanks Friday but do not remember costs. Rain is over but it was a nice one and we are dry, pond is down over a foot now unusual for fall

 

[Buppies]

The 031 was a great saw they do not make them like they used to. For some reason I seem to say that alot now.

 

[Buppies]

Also for those who hate cold weather looks like next week we will warm back up into 60s for a day or two

 

[wngsprd]

64 heading to 77 and windy and drying out. Last night we had a real house shaking wind and rain come through.

I guess this warm weather is my invitation to complete my caulking and painting, but too windy for the sprayer.

Buppies, out forecast for Wednesday night changed from rain/snow to snow, like you predicted.

Good suggestions and info on the splitter engine.
Thanks,
Billy

Ron,

Glad yours is still running well. Mine was purchased sometime in the mid 80's ...

Hard to say exactly what happened ... I may have gotten distracted by something or it may have been in the loader bucket and inadvertently gotten dumped ...

I was sure the last place I had had it was over by the barn ... where I took down several ash trees ... spent considerable time looking for it in various places ...

37F with dense fog this morning.

It is hard to believe a chainsaw would start right up after being 'stored' outdoors. One of my brothers stored tools that way, pretty much wherever they fell from his hand the last time he used them. Used to drive my dad nuts.

Have a reasonable Monday all.

My son in Front Royal is planning an early exit to head for the Eastern Shore on Wednesday, as they are expecting several inches of snow there Wed into Thursday. We are expecting light, non accumulating snow early Thursday. 65 now, 74 later today.

It's a Stihl ...

Even so, I was impressed.

57 and very windy, my windmill is making all kinds of bubbles.

 

[deerseeker001]

40 with Rain this Morning changing to Snow later later 3-5 inches in forecast.

Good morning, 54F when I woke up but temperature is dropping to 43F this afternoon.

 

[txdon]

Good morning! 50˚ hitting only 61˚ later it's a cloudless energetic type of day. A good day to get outside work done.

 

[Pixguy]

Good day all. It's still the 47 that it was earlier with heavy rain and a high of 60.

Going to have lunch with the FIL to celebrate his 91st b'day... and he's still driving!

Then finish loading the motorhome for the trip south, but hopefully not with the same ending as Drew. ^(

Happy Monday!

Wind is really blowing here ... heard a tree come down somewhere down towards the house I think.

Beautiful weather for cutting ... very mild temps ... almost had to take off my Carhardt.

One tank of premix so far ... have about 1/2 of the trees bucked ... haven't touched the log pile yet tho' ...

Came down for a quick little french toast break ...

Cupcake says she is going to come play in the woodpile ...

Cupcake says she is going to come play in the woodpile ...

I would think for actual "help" a different nickname would be appropriate.

edit: opps, I see you said "PLAY" , never mind. you can keep with Cupcake.
