Some bar/chain oils have a shelf life. I've heard of bar oil subject to repeated extreme cold getting stringy. Cleaning a tank isn't without some merit in some cases. The book mentioning pre-storage draining was an old repair manual, so maybe in days past oil going bad was much more prevalent...

Why can't you store your own images?

Or maybe didn't shake up the container. Like put the oil in then went and answered the telephone.

Vegas probably wouldn't give good odds that it got saved.

After a new hose and a carb kit, the 163S kicked over on the third pull. Judging by the hose sludge and whatever else gunk in the tank, it must have sat for years. I didn't really get the tank cleaned out as good as I should, tried various methods but not yet lacquer thinner. It's brown soft...

Looks like some useful wood in that sucker. A perennial question at a tree worker's forum, did it get saved?

Made me curious, so I googled it to see if there are technical distinctions between a forum and social media, but what I found was quite a debate whether forums are social media or not. Burnham, you might still be safe yet. :lol:

No wonder Bears love their mama.

You'll find books telling how to store saws mentioning rinsing out the oil tank after using.

There seems nothing apparent in the wood of that species that could cause that. Apparently it's a very fast growing tree, one of the fastest if not the fastest in North America.

If any parallels can be drawn from bending wood made supple by steaming, a slow even consistent pull around your form seems to give better results from cracking, than doing it by way of a quick jerky motion. Asking the fibers to stretch not tear..... Bending wood that is too dry, the degree of...

I know Burnham drives a nice car, has an accepting wife, and keeps a hell of a firewood pile.

If a saw is not bogging down, what's the liability? I think you might admit that 18000 rpms backed by 70ccs might be a bit much for a two inch limb. I think my friend's philosophy does have some application if one can get into the habit. He's about the only person that I know that has. He's...

I'd be curious how wood fibers at a hinge respond to a slow gradual pull compared to a fast jerk. Is one way going to allow the fibers to bend more before they break?

You keep it running all night?

I found a good way to stay cool when in bed at night is to get a small fan, say eight or ten inch diameter or so, and with it sitting close have it blow it directly on your face. I find it easy to fall asleep that way. However hot it is in the room doesn't make any difference. Mine is two...

The anti-gun people are going to run with this. "If there had been no guns around they never even would have thought of it".

Wonder if her husband died on the spot or had anything else to say. "Don't blame yourself, honey", might have been worth at least something.

That would be a cool thing to loan out to friends if you had one.

All the people watching, nobody volunteered with a maybe they might want to rethink this?
