I do three strokes whenever it feels like it slows down. Rakers are kept low enough to keep things interesting, if you know what I mean.

Again, that holds true for her coloring, which is her genetics. Again, this is just my experience.

You’re right Kavey. Also they are not known for being affectionate. For some reason she only really allows me to hold her.

Inescapably :).

OooOo grits! You ARE from the south ain't ye?

I put a slab of steelhead on the smoker grill, and we made a pot of grits and steamed some nice, sweet broccoli.

I let a chain go before I get to the reference line...by then the tooth is smaller than I like. But I don't have to economize like an everyday cutter for money may need to. Maybe an 8th of an inch short of the reference mark. I'm pretty easy going on filing rakers. I drop them a couple of...

Tortoise shell cats are typically great hunters, in my experience. Mackerel Tabbies are always contenders, but the best are blues and blacks.

Well I was able to hold my own at BJJ tonight. I was able to get quite a few submissions with no taps from me. I almost felt like I was good at it. Just got home and realized that I must now have a garage cat. She’s a decent critter. Comes in the house for a few minutes and usually wants...

Last night, was beefy queso dip and chips. Tonight, excessive amounts of mashed taters and gravy. Last time Ash came to visit, she left this little battery powered coffee whisk thing. Makes making instant gravy stupid easy, as if it wasn't already lolz. Bachelor slop, what can I say? I'll do...

Gauge is the proper spelling so far as I'm concerned. Very light pressure is the trick there. I also tend to drop the rakers pretty low and leave them alone for a good while, just don't cram on the saw and it'll be fine. I'll file til I meet the little reference line at the back, around...

Chicken soup. Made from some from the back yard ;)

After yesterday's prediction, I'll be having braised groundhog on a bed of rice with a side of steamed broccoli.

Old guys rule! They know how to get shit done! Don't piss them off by diddle-phucking your way around a job because one of them may show you up and take you to school on how it is done! Same thing for me today. Removed a 5' diameter oak that had been topped several years ago. Not a lot of brush...

I can recall something sorta similar happening on a few occasions with me, that Stihl 084, and a much younger sawyer than I ;).

Had a climber for part of the tree. He was uncomfortable taking the top which I understood. It had to be cut at a weird dogleg that positioning sucked. I ended up saying “don’t worry, pappy will show you how it’s done”. I did it and finished the tree. I was able to find a small area to flop wood...

I've learned to file free- hand on a mountain side with 3 strokes per raker to adjust. A poor method until you know what you're doing and filing cutters well, allowing your brain to gather info about performance into a feedback loop. Like people who use the "pull the chain and the tension...

Yep , the thickness seems correct ... though quite honestly I've not used one a long time. If you look at it broadside once chisel teeth restored , place round file in line with bar so it lies on top of the chisels an view profile judging gap allow
