    Drones

    They are big in the news past couple weeks. Unexplained heavy night time drone activity in Jersey area and elsewhere in USA. I didn't pay much attention early on, but the issue seems persistent. Why can't or isn't the fed 'authorities' giving any explanations or solutions? Could it be aliens...

    TCIA felling article

    I wanted to place this in an extant thread but couldnt find the right one. Felling article. 2 things didn't make sense to me- reason for a humboldt and hinging/fiber in winter-cut oaks. As discussed ad nauseam here at the House, the biggest reason to use a humboldt is (long story short) to...

    White Pines in The Pine Tree State appear threatened

    Was in Maine a couple weeks ago (a third of the way up the state, 17 mi NW of Augusta). I always love gazing at the many massive white pines (4'x130') on my camp road by Echo Lake. Last year at this time I observed no issues with the trees. This year, 99% of the white pines in my area have very...

    The dreaded stripped threads, Husky 572

    Aite, one of the 4 screws affixing the starter assembly to the saw is stripped. Rather, the hole seems to be stripped, the screw's threads seem to be good. Presumably a case of a loose screw that got worse over time and vibration destroyed the threads. I've never done a heli-coil. Can you guys...

    Have I mentioned I eat poison ivy?

    Been doing it on and off for probably 3 years. It tastes like kale. I've had no ill effects and rarely get a rash from work. I'm the guy who handles the PI into the chipper if it needs to be fed manually cuz my guys are both very allergic. Anyway here is a big article on it from WSJ, idk if...

    hearing pro

    An important topic for me so I buy the strongest pro I can find-peltor H10 which is rated for 27-35NRR depending on what you read. Hygiene kits for it are tough to find. I used to buy them with no problem but manufacturers seem to have figured that they'll make more money by making hygiene kits...

    you saw mechanics out there-

    I was just trouble shooting the glitch in my power pruner on/off switch, it proved to be simply an unplugged wire coupler. Whilst in there I found a thin wire which the vinyl coating had rubbed off of in a small spot maybe an eighth inch long. I want to cover the bare wire but electrical tape...
