| 745376 | 2009-02-06 01:46:00 | Our chainsaw died. :crying Husband wasted time and $38 replacing its ring. Told him that wouldn't work. Found a replacement on TM. While he was dithering I bought it with buy now. A Husky 272XP. 72cc, 20", a bit bigger than the old one. Can't complain really, the old one lasted 15 years. Meanwhile while we await its arrival today I have been playing with the log splitter - big meaty chunks of Macrocarpa. Actually a friend is coming over with his chain saw as some of them were a bit too much for the splitter and it was getting a bit tiresome smacking them free with the splitting axe. I love the log splitter! |

| 745378 | 2009-02-06 02:15:00 | Having a woodburning fireplace means you get double the warmth for no extra cost. The first time when you cut the firewood and then again when you burn it... :) | johcar (6283) | ||

| 745380 | 2009-02-06 03:00:00 | So this really big Swedish guy goes into a hardware store and asks the salesman if they have any buck saws to cut some trees . The manager comes over and asks how many trees the fellow wants to clear and the Swede says: "a coupl' hunnerd" . "Wow" says the manager to the salesman . "Show Oas here the best chain saw we have in the store" . The salesman brings the saw over - a full 4-foot of tree-eating chainsaw and the big Swede's eyes light up really good! "Tell me, can this saw work for me like I need it to?" he asks . "Heck, yeah! Y'a can clear a couple of acres a day with this baby!" "OK, wrap 'er up and I'll give 'er a go" he says, pulling out his credit card . About a month later the big Swede is back in the store, looking really sore, tired and worn-out . He is carrying the saw and says that he wants his money back as it's "No damned good" as he puts it . The manager asks what could possibly be wrong that this - the best saw in the store - cannot do for him . The big Swede says: "She's a-no good 'un at all, I t'ink! I kin only get a couple o' dozen trees felled in a day", and just stares at the manager . The manager now calls the salesman over and asks him to try the saw right then and there and with that the guy grabs the pull-rope and gives it a good yank . BLAP BLAP-KER BLAP the big saw starts and runs . "WHAT'S THAT NOISE" says the Swede? |
