    How'd it go today?

    Maybe a community college offers a night course in welding.

    How'd it go today?

    I got a bad sliver once from the stick used to measure log lengths at jobs, ran my hand down it and got poked through my glove. I thought I pulled it out but it must have broke. You couldn't really see it but after a day or two I could definitely tell that it was in there. I went to the...

    Wedge Belts

    The official fabric wedge pouches that sell for that purpose are pretty useless. I keep my wedges in them when not needing to carry them.

    Nicely done, how many wedges do you find that you generally need to carry?

    Stihl MS650 -- broken -- rebuild?

    I was thinking tig welding the fins or making new ones to attach if it was a concern. You wouldn't have to butt the pieces, just lay them on top of the broken fins, then spark and tack.

    Something you can pretty easily learn as a foreigner, if not by your own experience, by what other people will tell you, is not to mess around with immigration.

    How'd it go today?

    I cut and smashed the end of my finger when a kid, after the surgery had to spend the night in the hospital. I had to buzzer the nurse in the middle of the night because it hurt so bad. I remember that after she came in and then left to get the medicine ready, I fell asleep and she then woke me...

    I think they went a little overboard with decomp valves when they started to put them on fifty some cc saws.

    Cut down a dead Pine leaning over graves and close to a house, two pullers on it. I don't like wearing rubber boots and seldom needed, so don't usually bring them, but it's helpful to be informed that there is swamp conditions on the property if going there blind. :wack: Odd that people don't...

    I was referring to what the article said were people with green cards that were being deported because of earlier violations against the law. Apparently there are those cases as well.

    You can't be squeamish with the big old saws without decamp valves. I have an 076 like that. A good mental attitude along with taking the slack out of the starter rope before giving a very positive yank, seems to help. I rebuilt an 028 from the dump once where even the whole fuel line plastic...

    intentional barber chair

    Nothing wrong with experimenting if it doesn't endanger, but speaking for myself, there is so much to constantly learn without adding the questionable things to it.

    What Did Ya'll Have For Dinner Tonight?

    I'm a registered alien with working rights, not a citizen where I reside. in a number of those Iraqi cases, they have a similar arrangement by way of having green cards, so they aren't breaking any immigration laws. If a person has a right to live and earn money, has satisfied the requirements...

    Ah, my mistake, sorry, I should have mentioned that the photo is one I pulled off the web, too lazy to take one at the shop. The one I have looks similar but no brake. The early run of that model didn't have one.

    New project

    No chain brake, so it's an early model, I guess introduced around 1973-'74. I ran a 61 for awhile, it wan't mine, but a guy that only had the use of one arm would have me use it at jobs. A good saw I recall.
